Before long many a politician, who Aarted out to build a fence, will find ae dug a ditch instead. ',The town knocker never has the nerve to leave the town, but con- tinues to remain, ever burdened with his grouch. If Noah had swatted those two We that started up the Ark's gang plank, he would have saved the world a lot of trouble. There seems to be little hope of Congress adjourning very soon. iWash ington has a cracking good base bail team and between this and the Presi- dent's outlined anti-trust program the 'members are reluctant to leave. The Honorable Amos Pinchott wants the Honorable George W. Per- kins removed as chairman of the national Progressive committee, be- ca,use he is \a menace to the party.\ But T. R. recalls they let George do it not long ago, when it came to cam- paign funds, and says the Hon. George and he are a pair and must remain if IT.

HOBSON'S ANNIVERSARY I Hobson's ;birthday anniversary was fittingly celebrated Saturday, there being a large crowd in attendance, drawn from all parts of the county. The athletic sports, bores racing, rid- ing attracted much interest and the base ball game between the Moore Maroons and the Denton Black Sox drew an immense crowd. The Denton tads had slightly the best of the tame up to the last of the seventh Inning, when the game was called on account of rain with the score 7 to 4. The game was 'awarded to 'Denton, the purse of $100 being divid- ed equally. Prior to the game the 111a1'0011s trried to arrange 60 and 40 per cent, or winners take all, but nton preferred to play for half and half. The day's ,entertainment 'concluded with a well attended dance at Murray's hull in the evening. The Stanford Band furnished excellent 'music during the day. 'The • Moore Commercial Club and the Moore Concert Band attended 'the celebration in a body, nearly a dozen automobiles being chartered for the occasion. The machines all tarried banners and appropriate decorations boosting for Moore and its big Fourth of July Celebration mid drove into town while the band played. The delegation attracted much attention 'and made a big hit 'with the people of Hobson and A pamphlet entitied,\HistorY of the Zquity Co -Operative Eachange,\ 'pub- lished by the Co -Operative Manager - and Famer, of Minneapolis is being 'circulated in this state. Monona is proving a fruitful field for organiz- lug the farmers and this publication is designed to hinder the work and oppose the A. S. of E., the Equity Co Operative Exchange at Minneapolis, and Geo. S. Loftus' campaign. Local farmers do not seem to look upon it with favor. Copious rain showers have been frequent here and crop conditions were perhaps never better thrum* the Judith Basin. Winter wheat is beading oat in fine shape and idi spring grains, including Marquis 'wheat are in excellent condition and grow- ing rapidly. Considerable alfalfa wasi sown on the benches by local farm- ers this spring and it also is show- ing up very good. Grass conditions are splend d and there will be much hay put up this season. A number of our farmers have planted corn for silage purposes and all this means' an increase in hogs, dairy and. beef' cattle, and sheep, to which local farmers have begun to devote more 'attention, instead of relying upon wheat alone. With adequate prices for their products this fall Judith Basin farmers should realize substan- tial proll.t. It is not \wthat will the iharvest be\ but it's the price which Is Of moat interest now. A CALAMITY 'No greater calamity can happen to a town except destruction by fire. than the loss of its local newspaper.

Peterson, county agricul- turist, and R. A. Blanchard, Cascade county's agrijzitnrtst, were in the city fue.'siia afternoon, while en - route on visit to different farms in the Moore district. Mr. Peterson has just finished a series of farmers' meetings thrums, the eastern and northern part of Fer- gus county 'and in Meagher countY, in which he was assisted by W. E. Harmon., former state superintendent of education. He states the gather- ings were all well attended. Many of the farmers in this county h.ave planted corn this year for silage and results so far are encouraging. This will mean more feed for more live- stock of all kinds, as well as the use a the land every year instead if 'letting one-balf lie idle each season. Mr. Blanchard just took up his work in Cascade county this spring and states his field is not yet as fully a developed farming country Us in this vicinity. BOOSTS CELEBRATION W. J. Abel is in the city from Moore. He says that Moore is go- ing to hale a grand' celebration 'July 4, and that the business men are going to have a big parade, the first one in the history of the town. iiHowever, a number of Moore fight fans expect to make a quick trip to 'Lewistown in the evening to see the all-star boxing program here.—Lew- istown News.

RAMBLERS DEFEAT CUBS Last Monday the Moore Ramblers again defeated the Lewistown Cubs In a fast and furious contest. It was the third game between these two teams, and as each side had a tame to their credit this one was to decide which was the better team. This game was played on the Lew- Istown diamond Which was not in very good condition and therefore tt few errors were mdp, though the score, which was 6!o 5, shows that was a good and hand played game. The Ramiblers made the trip via auto and were accompanied by several rooters. MAROONS WIN ONE AND LOSE ONE Base ball fans witnessed one of the classiest games ever seen on the local diamond last Sunday when the IVIaroons won from the Lewistown White Wings by the score of 5 to 3. McElroy did splendid work in the box for Moore, while Conley pitched for Lewistown and both 'ere given excellent support, a number of star plays being made.

Dhe original line-up of the two teams was changed considerably and some of the \all-star\ players were sadly missed. Bates did excellent twirling for the \heavyweights Will- ard started out for the \slims\ but 'his arm was not in trim and Mc - 'Murray took the mound in the third. The Fats started the runaway from the very belginning, while the Leans never did seem to be able to make their hits count. John McElroy um- pired the game very satisfactorily and the gate receipts were fair the con- y in o n o i c ngas s io : n. s e td a S t e s c r o hlgi r e Leans 2-0-0-0-2-0-1— 5 ADDITIONAL LOCAL Matt Wright, of Straw, topped the Chicago market a few days ago with 31 Montana porkers at $8.45. .H is shrinkage was but 113 pounds.
