L FARMER BURNS

In wrestling circles, the name of
Farmer Burns will always be prom
inent. For some 20 years, the Iowa
farmer engaged in mat combat. He
was a miodleweight who would take on
men of any size. He trained Frank
was the author of several books on
wrestling. He was q busy wrestler, al
ways on the go, getting purses of sew
eral thousand dollars an appearance
whenever he could, and, if the purses
OF that size weren't visible or gettable,
he'd work for 500 or 5000. Money, big
or small. was what Burns was after.
And he would save it. The Farmer
wouldn't put out more than $1.50 for
a hotel room and never patronized
expensive hotels or cafes. He was
thrifty, extremely so.
In a Montana town where I once
lived, 20 years ago, Farmer Burns was
booked to Wrestle. The name of his op-
ponent is not rememberable. I was writ
ing sports, so came in contact with
Burns several times a day, for three or
foul days before the bout.
Donation Refused
The day of the match arrived. Far
mer played to a good house. He won
easily: His take was 5000.
While engaged in writing the story of
the match, Burns came to the newspa-
per office to chat a few minutes away.
The Farmer expressed satisfaction
over the house and the dollars he
pocketed: Also, he thanked me for sew
eral writeups. Mentioning that he
wanted to show his appreciation to me
for any favors I might have tossed his
way, he dug into his pocket and came
up with two bucks, which he insisted
were Tor me. I declined the gift with
thanks.
Burns two bucks didn't interest me.
AS a matter of fact, while Farmer
Burns collected $500, my take was
larger, for I was the promoter of the
match, though MI. Burns didn't know
about it.
Stanley Ketchel's Start
Stanley ketchels first appearance in
the ring was via the kitchen. Ketchel
was working as a diShwaSher in an
East Park street cafe, Butte, when he
was offered q chance in a preliminary
bout. The offer was rendered him be-
cause he had mixed in a few rough and
tumble bouts with tough hombres, COM
ing out best.
The late Maurice Thompson was
Ketchel's opponent. Maurice and Stan
ley were on the same card that fea-
tured Aurelio Herrera and Louie Long.
Thompson won. His experience was too
much for the wild swinging Ketchel.
Howard Opie seconded Ketchel. Later
in the evening Howard was in Herrera's
corner in a like capacity. In comment
ing on Ketchel's first ring appearance,
Opie told me this story: "Ketchel
knew nothing about boxing; he had a
natural left hand which was poison
ivy; he used a natural shift, and adj

The bowling season is on.

Inc Downing season Is on.
Once again the noise of ball and pins
heralds a popular sport of the cold
months; affords 5000 Montana keglers
exercise and enjoyment; makes con
versation run to strikes, spares and
cherries instead of strikes, balls and
putOutS; and tournaments of all kinds,
city, district and state, are on the cal
endar of a lot of tomorrows.
The state bowling tournament is the
big show for the pin smashers. The
Montana bowling association has spon-
sored annual Journeys beginning 20
years ago. The first tournament was
held in Miles City in 1917. For the
next two years, the annual pin mass
acres were postponed, due to the World
war. The titular matches were resumed
in 1920, and have continued veal after
year. For your information, the 1887
tournament will be held at Missoula.
The famous old Mudro five-man
team, disbanded in 1881, won six
championships in Is years of COMPETE
ton. The highest score posted in 10
meets for a five-man team was rolled
by the Marquettes of Butte in 1882.
The team pin total was 1858, one more
point than the Mudros rolled at the
tourney the year before.

MONTANA'S OCTOBER
PAYROLLsGAINS ARE
SECOND in NATION

Distinct advances in employment and
payrolls during October in the Rocky
mountain region are recorded by the
labor department.
Montana led the four-state field in
the advances and was second in the
nation in percentage of increase in
payrollS.
The Treasure state, with 636 estab-
lishments reporting. listed 1927 per-
O employed. an increase Of 81 per-
cent over September and a weekly
payroll CT S523 ,49l. an increase of 1877
percent.
This percentage of payroll increase
was exceeded only by Michigan with
22.l percent.
Beet sugar activity was credited
largely for producing business adj
vances in Colorado. Wyoming and Mon
tana. Coloradois increase was supple
mented by greater activity in bitumin-
Gus coal mining. and Montana's ad-
vancesw were coupled also with increased
activity in metal mining.
The statistics were based on data
from manufacturing industries, trades,
public utilities. mining, services and
building construction.

FUNDING BONDS TO
BE ISSUED BY CITY
AT INTEREST SAVING

Plans are under way, according
to City Comptroller Robert B. Up
ham, to fund approximately ten
million dollars in judgments, which
includes condemnation judgments
in special assessment proceedings
by the issuance of bonds which
have been authorized by the legis-
lature. This city financing is in
keeping with Mayor Edward J.
Kelly's program of sound business
procedure which has made Chicago
leader in municipal recovery.
Judgments against the city bear
an interest rate of five per cent.
Because of the splendid condition
of the city's financial structure and
because of the great demand for
Chicago's bonds, all over the coun-
try, Comptroller Upham believes
that these funding bonds will be
issued with an interest rate or
three per cent.
Figured to the optional dates
and maturity of these bonds Chi
cage taxpayers will be greatly BEN
Gifted by the interest saving. Chi
cago's credit will be still further
advanced by using bonds to retire
long standing obligations.
Chicago has lead the way in
coming out of the financial morass
experienced by most American
Cities" says Comptroller Upham.
when this new pan is put into
effect we will have taken another
important step forward. The inter-
est saving by the issuance of these
funding bonds will be reflected in
the lowering costs of cur govern
ment. Good business practice de-
mands the lowering of interest
rates on city obligations whenever
possible"
