NORMAL PART
OF WHEAT is
SOLD NOV. 80
MARKETING OF NORTHWEST
CONFORMS TO 4-YEAR AVER
AGE, SAYS BULLETIN

A normal proportion of the 1929-3O
wheat supplies in the northwest had
been marketed by the end of Novem-
Der, the monthly review of agricul-
tural and business conditions in the
ninth federal reserve district, includ-
ing Montana, states. The wheat sup
plies for the current year may be
computed by adding to the four-state
crop the stocks of wheat carried over
from the preceding crop and deduct
ing the quantity of wheat required
for seed in the succeeding spring.
By Novmber 80, wheat marketing
during 1929 amounted to So percent
of the marketable wheat supply as
compared to So percent on the cor
responding date in 1928 and a four
year average percentage for the same
date of So percent.
The hog situation at the end of
November was complicated by con-
flicting forces. Stocks of pork and
other meats were larger than year
ago and larger than the five-year av-
erage, but the spring pig crop was
smaller in 1929 than in 1928. The
corn yield, especially in southeastern
South Dakota, was better in the nor
Invest than the average United
States yield in 1929. ep
More cattle We're shipped into the
corn belt feeding states during the
past fall than IN any of the preced-
ing four years. Prices Of feeder cat
tie were lower than in the fall OF
1928. The cost of a compound feeder
steer for a five months feeding per
iod averaged $131 during September
October and November. During the
same months in 1928 the average was
Sal.
City banks in the ninth federal re-
serve district were able to reduce
their borrowings from the federal re-
serve bank by nine million dollars
during the four weeks ending Deem
Der 10, 1929. The borrowings of these
city banks ON the latter date were
only nine million dollars larger than
on the corresponding date in 1928

RAILWAY CLUB SAT.
LIVINGSTON RAILWAY CL L B
HAS. ONE OF FASTEST TEAMS
IN sui HERR NJ III FANA
INDEPENDENTS WIN OVER THE
BRIDGER QUINTET LAST SAT-
URDAY NIGHT; 37-15.

One of the fastest basketball games
of the season will be played on the
local high school gym floor Saturday
night, when the Red Lodge Indepen-
dents will meet the Livingston Rail-
way Club, the latter having gained
considerable fame throughout south
ern Montana during the past two sea-
son for their fast and remarkable
playing.
The Livingston players are coming
prepared to put up hard game for
the local boys, but the Red Lodge
Players feel cc~t;iant in scoring a
victory. THIS season the Livingston
Railroaders have played the Bobcats,
Montana State college, twice. The
Independents have played five games
this season, losing one of them, which
they term as moral defeat"
The outcome of this game Saturday
night will determine whether the Red
Lodge Independents shall enter the
Midland Empire tournament at Bill
ings in March. :
Coach Spogen believes that his
team is in shape to make fine show
ing. Tonight the Independents will
meet the Roberts Independents on
their home floor, which will be the
third game Of the season with this
quintet.
The Red Lodge Independents
PLAYERS include Toffer, Hannula, Lew,
Guintoni; Tn,lri, Blazina, and Luht-
ala. all former Carbon County High
School stars, who have played on the
Yellowstone district courts few
years ago.
A large crowd is expected to at
tend thi. Saturday night game.
Last Saturday night the Bridger
town team met defeat on the
Carbon County High school gym floor
when the local team outplayed them
by score of 81 to IS.
The game was fast and we'll play
ed. The boys on both teams fought
lard although the score would not
Indicate it. Toffer made shots from
almost impossible angles, while Han
nula's work in the scoring zone was
remarkable. Giuntoni made good
use of his height under the baskets,
with Toffer and Hannula consistently
working the ball to him,
With Hannula's passing and Tot
fer's uncanny floor playing it made
victory easier for the local team.
Blazina and Tuuri played good
game of guarding, making B,ridger's
players shoot long shots, many OF
which we're accurate.
Luhtala and Levi gave good ac-
counts of themselves in the game.

PERECRINA IS
RECOGNIZED AS
MEXICAN CHAMP

When Bert Colima, idol of the
Mexican fight fans, began to sliT
few years ago, folks wondered
who would succeed him. The ans
wer will be found in Joe Pcrcgrina
who will be seen Friday night at
action at the Imperial Valley Ath-
letic club, against Johnny Grella,
hard hitting Fresno Italian.
Joe is recognized as the Mexican
middlewcight champion, and has
designs on the worlds title now
worn by Mickey Walker. He has
met and defeated the best men at
his weight, and the popularity for
merly bestowed on Colima by his
Mexican compatriots, is now ac-
corded to Peregrina.
He will not have a set-up in the
opposite corner Friday night, for
Grella is some scrappcr himself
He has met such men as Ace Hud-
kins, Colima, Joe Roche and others.
Several months ago he met Pere
grina up at Fresno and the two of
them put on a battle that the fans
are still talking about.
They slugged toe to toe Though
10 furious rounds of milling and
the referee decided that Joe had
the edge, but it was no grea; adj
vantage.
Grella has been anxious ever
since to get Peregrina in the ring
again, and he is in topnotch shape
waiting for the hell to ring.
In the semi-final, Sammy Santos,
who has knocked out johnny
Adams, and beat some of the best
ightweights in the game, will tan
gle with Homer Gaines, the popu
lar Imperial colored boy, who is
travelling a fast clip in the ring
just now. Homer is hitting straight
and hard, and will be in there put
ting everything he has into the
fight.
Two good sizzling preliminaries
will open the card, and on paper
and past performances of the prin-
cipals, it looks to be red-ho
card all through.

.COYLE DEPARTS
AFTER MAKING
FAIR SUCCESS

Having done with complete sue
cess, what he was engaged to do,
James r. Jimmy" Coyle, secretary
of the Imperial County Fair, PLAN
ned to leave today for his home in
Oceanside, where he is connected
with safety road sign company.
When the county fair commission
was organized, they invited Coyle
to come over from the coast and
manage the fair, having recognized
the success with which he managed
a fair in this city some nine years
ago. He accepted the invitation
and Immediately started to work
last fall and continued through un-
til the affairs of the organization
were completed.

$4,000 to the good" Jimmy said,

up.
"The fair commission now ha:
the complete support of the entire
valley and their work in the next
few years should be considerably
easier now that the start has been

Last fall when discussing the
! fair with the Press, Jimmy made
the prediction that it would clear
around $4,000 and that 10000 peo-
pie would see it. His ability as a
guesser is proved by the final state
ment of the fair, which showed him
to be less than 100 off on both fig
ures.
At the time ne agreed to become
secretary of the fair, he made az
Irangements for six months leave
of absence from his business, and
again guessed correctly, the six
