Levinsky Receives
 Terrible Beating
 list, Only Round
(By The Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Aug. 8, Joe Louis, the brown bomber from Detroit, scored a technical knockout in the first round over King Levinsky, the ex-fsh peddler from Chicago, of a scheduled ten round fight.
 The fight lasted only two minut- es and twenty-one seconds. A crowd of forty thousand people saw the fiasco. Levinsky was knocked down four times by Louis by heavy punch es to the head and body, and was sitting on the bottom rope of the ring, in a neutral corner when the referee, McGarrity ended the one sided battle.
 Levinsky was down for the count of two the first time, and took the count of five on the next two knockdowns. He was sitting on the ropes, punchdrunk, when the time keeper tolled off four, as the battle ended.
 Levinsky landed only one solid punch-a wild right to the head.
 Louis was aggressive from the start. The fifth or six punch that Louis landed knocked Levinsky to his hauches, and as he came to his feet at the count of two, Louis charged after him flashing out with terrific punches.
 The crowd was in an uproar from the outset as Levinsky kept bounc- ing to the floor. The cheering was thunderous. The referee finally step

 mining limited the output of Al
 aska mines in 1884. Many of these
 were local and affected only small part of the Territory, but several of them had much widespread sig
 nificance. Of these more general factors it is hardly necessary to call attention to the fact that this coun- try, as well as most of the rest of of the world, has not yet emerged from the violent depression that has deterred normal activities and dis couraged the starting of new enter prises. Furthermore, even those new enterprises that have been start ed require a large amount of pre- liminary preparatory or dead work before they even begin to yield a small production.

SHIPPING TIEUP

Another of the general incidents that adversely affected the Alaska Mining industry in 1884 was the gen eral tie-up of shipping for nearly 2 months at the beginning of the op- en season, by a serious strike of long shoremen and waterfront workers. Even short delay is seriously felt in region like Alaska, where the open season is so short, and this was aggravated by the fact that even af- ter regular shipping was resumed congestion of freight was so great and the orderly handling of it so up- set that even longer time than usual elapsed before the miners in remote parts received all their need ed supplies and equipment.

WHEAT OUTLOOK STRESSES
NEED FOR ADJUSTMENT

Unless adverse weather reduces
spring wheat yields betewen now
and harvest time, the United States
wheat supply is likely to be far
more than domestic and foreign
markets will absorb in 1856,
says George E. Farrell, director Of
the grain division of the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration.
The June crop report indicates a
total wheat crop of 681 million bu-
shels-441 million of winter wheat
and 240 million of spring wheat,
Mr.. Farrell points out. The esti-
mated carry-over of $50 to ITO
million bushels will swell the total
supply to $50 to $50 million BUSH
eS.
The United States will probably
use about 625 million bushels, and
our foreign markets probably not
more than Is to 100 million BUSH
els. The total consumption, on this
basis, will not exceed 700 to 725
million bushels, leaving a probable
surplus, on July 1, 1886, of 125 to
100 million bushels.
1.-THE meaning of the crop re-
port to wheat farmers is that they
must once more face the problem
of what to do with wheat for
which there is no home market
and for which foreign outlets are
limited" Mr.. Farrell asserts.
Through the wheat program, they
have the means to meet this pro-
blem by adjusting their production
to market outlets.
IF it required the provisions of
the wheat program to give far
mers this protection during the
years when the two shortest wheat
crops in 40 years were harvested,
it seems likely that the provisions
will be even more necessary with
normal wheat crops"

5000 Men Seek SO
State Patrol Jobs
Training School at Ripley Will
Settle Final Contests For
Positions

Faced with 5000 applications for
Sc jobs to be filled in the State
Highway Patrol, Chief J.. P. Ar
noldy is devoting himself this
month to the task Of picking 70
men who will attend a special
training school at Camp Ripley
fight it out for the final appoint
ments, says a highway department
bulletin.
The last Legislature authorized
an increase in the size of the Pa
troll to 100 men and granted the
body additional police powers, but
owing to the fact that the 1885
budget of the highway department
did not provide for the extra ex-
pense involved, it was decided to
postpone the expansion until jan
uary, 1896.
However, a patrol training
school will be held at the national
guard camp, Fort Ripley, in Aug
ust September and part of Oc-
tober. Here 70 candidates will be
given a stiff course of complete
training, and SO will get appoint
ments to the patrol. All present
members of the patrol will be sent
through a special short course in
criminal law and police work in
connection with the training
school. This is to give them a bet
ter groundwork for their increased
police duties. In the past the patrol
has functioned only as a traffic
squad, without general police
powers.

PIG DECREASE IN
NATION 20 PERCENT

Westinghouse decrease of 20
percent in the spring pig crop of
1885 from the small 1884 crop and
marked reduction" in the num-
Der of hogs over six months old on
June list this year were reported
by the department of agriculture.
The June pig crop report also
recorded a prospective increase of
10 percent in the number of sows to
farrow in the fall of 1885 over the
fall of 1884 but decrease of ten
percent in the total narrowing in
1895 from the total of 1884.
The number of pigs saved in the
spring season of 1885, December /,
1884, to June 1, 1885, was estimated
at 3O,402 900 head for the United
States, decrease of 1915 per cent
or 7,405, 900 head from the number
saved in the spring of 1884, and a
decrease of 40 percent or 20,814 900
head from the average number
saved in the springs of 1882 and
1893.
In the corn belt, the number Of
spring pigs saved this year was
estimated at 23,704,OOO head, a de-
crease of 22.3 percent from 1884
and AZ per cent from the average
of 1882 and 1888.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1935-07-04

1, 1885 will be about 5000 900 bu-
shells less than on that date a year
ago. A five per cent increase in
production this year, amounting to
165, 100000 bushels, would still
leave a world supply about $780,
100000 bushels less than last year.
This years production estimate
is based on an estimate of a 35
per cent increase in production in
North America; about the same
production this year as last in
Europe-excluding Russia and
about a Is per cent reduction in
North Africa. Continued dry
weather in the southern hemis-
phere may cause a reduction there
of more than per cent.
Should the new crop in the Unit
ed States total 67O,000OO0 bushels,
and the carry-over about 100000
600 bushels, there would be a sur
plus Of about 100000 bushels
above the least amount needed for
domestic use, says the report.
The Canadian crop, it is stated,
may turn out to be about 1855, 200, 900
bushels, compared with 276OOO,O00
bushels last year.

Ten Million Relief
Il Fund Is Outlined
County Allotments Are Being
Prepared on the Basis Of
Ability To Pay

st. Paul, June 26.-Plans for
county participation in the $10,-
100000 relief fund authorized by
the last state legislature were out
lined here by L. p. Zimmerman, &C
ting administrator of the SIERRA, to
SO area administrators in confer
ence on the new works progress
program.
Pointing out that the law re-
quires counties and municipalities
seeking relief to contribute an
amount which in the opinion of
the federal government relief
agencies and the state executive
council is a fair and equitable sum
to be so borne by them" Mr.. Zim-
norman explained that the three
large cities of the state, Minneapo-
lis, st. Paul, and Duluth, had
agreed to accept responsibility for
the major share of the state fund.
County allotments are being
prepared on the basis of ability to
pay" he told the state administra-
tors, "the law stipulating that

lief projects at this time contem-
plated, to be taken into considera-

TAX delinquency, assessed valu-
alton, per capita Indebtedness, re-
lief needs and other financial con-
siderations have been used in de-
termining the amount Of county
participation. Experts have been
employed in arriving at this finan-
cial determination and the state
executive council through the
SERA has had the valuable assist
ance of the Minnesota County Aud

INDEMNITY INCREASED
SIS FOR GRADE CATTLE
UNDER BANGS PROGRAM

Twenty-Five dollars, instead of
$40, is now the maximum indem-
nifty that farmers may receive for
grade cattle tested and disposed of
through the governments Bangs
disease contagious abortion)
eradication program. DR.. w. j.
Fretz, st. Paul, federal veterinar-
ian in charge of Bang testing for
Minnesota, recently announced
that the indemnity for grades has
been raised S. per head.
The $25, he points out, Is the
highest amount of indemnity that
will be paid for any grade animal,
and the actual payment will be
governed in each instance, as in
the past, by the appraised value of
the animal condemned and market
ed.
The maximum indemnity for
purebred cattle remains unchang-
ed at $50 a head.
The new rate of payment, he ex-
plains, will apply only to future
disposals of cattle. New contracts,
carrying the higher indemnity
rate, are being written for herds
under retest and for all herds for
which new applications for testing
have been signed. Until this SUBJ
stitution of contracts is made, test
ing will be discontinued. July is
the date set for the resumption of
testing.
Since the Bangs disease eradi-
cation program was begun in Min
neapolis last August, a total of
AS, 1892 head of cattle have been
tested, and of these, 50,512 head, or
11.6 per cent, have reacted to the
test. In the United States as a
whole, more than 2,572,OOO head
have been tested, and more than
314, 600, or about II per cent, have
reacted.

Elsberg submits CONSTRUCTION
Plans For Federal Aid Road
System

The Minnesota Highway depart
ment has submitted to the United
States Bureau of Public Roads a
100000 detail program of feder-
al aid highway construction for
the fiscal year beginning this
month, it was announced today by
N. w. Elsberg, highway commits
sioner.
Projects to cost an additional
100000 will be submitted in a few
days, completing the states full
program of S6,SO0,0O0 under the
regular federal aid provisions. OF
this amount the federal govern
ment will pay half and the state
will be required to pay the balance
When federal approval of the
program is obtained, Commission
er Elsberg will ask the State Elk
ecutive council to authorize the
sale of bonds to provide for the
states share of the expense, he
stated. The bond financing plan
was set up by the state Legisla-
ture.
Under federal laws, the regular
federal aid construction program
is limited to the federal aid high
way system, which in Minnesota
corresponds generally to the orig
inal 7,OOO-mile state trunk system.
An additional $1O,O0O.OOO relief
labor employment program is to be
carried out by the highway depart
ment with emergency federal
funds. Completion of plans for
this program has been held up
pending receipt of detailed regu-
lations governing the use of the
money.
