(By Hal Sheridan) One of the choicest morsels in the fistic line that has been dished up for the box-fight fans in a long time will be Johnny Williams-Johnny Kil- bans six-round setto, carded for Phila- delphia, February 24. This will be the first time in the recent history of the padded mit game that two actual undisputed champions have faced each other in battle. Williams is a ‘regular” champion. In his recent battles in this ‘city the conqueror of Johnny Coulon made the old timers think of the famous masters of the past. “None of the great little men of the past ever had anything on that younster,” said one grey haired fan, as he watched Williams beat a tattoo on the ribs of one Duteh Brandt, a New York star. “Williams is a far better man that Johnny Cou- lon ever was.” One thing that made Williams look mighty good in his contests in New York City was his splendid condition. He fairly radiated good health. He started off like a veritable whirlwind in his bout with Brandt. And each round saw his speed increasing a little. In the tenth round he was going like a buzz and didn’t give the least impression of being tired. | Williams will have a tremendous handicap to overcome, however, when he tangles with the king of the featherweights. Kilbane will have a tremendous advantage in height and reach. The Cleveland boxer has a ‘wallop, too, as he has demonstrated on several occasions. Over the six-round course the wise ones are stringing with Kilbane. It is their belief that he will show too much speed for high lighter opponent for the short distance. If the pair should ever hook up over the mara- thon route—twenty rounds—Wil- liams probably would be the favorite. BUY AN AUTO; KEEP CHILDREN ON FARM Toledo, Ohio, Feb. 4.—The old, old question, “How to keep the chil- dren on the farm” has been answered, according to John W. Willys here today. Willys is a big auto manufac- turer. The answer is the medium priced car, says Willys. “The wild scramble on the part of farm boys and girls to get work in the cities is fast becoming a thing of the past. The motor car has brought the cities to them. The auto is keeping more youngsters on the farm today than promises of city wealth ever could do,” Willys declares. Willys puts the high price of farm products in the past directly at the door of the “on to the city movement.” He de- clared: “The agriculturist found he must boost the price of his product in order to pay for the planting, tending and marketing of that pro- duct. But the coming of the medium priced automobile has changed condi- tions. His sons and daughters have the opportiinity for recreation they have always sought. They are prac- tically as independent as the young- sters whose parents live in the su- burbs. In the evening their car will take them as far and as fast as they want to travel. They can run to the city and attend a theater, a concert or any other amusement.” And in the present day of scientific farming implements, they are not too tired LRSS R SRS EEREE * nE * MINNESOTA'S 1915 - TENTATIVE SCHEDULE October 2—North Dakota at Minnesota.

Barker Offers Watch for Chickens. So much interest was taken by the young people last year in the poultry contest that the premiums will be all fifty cents higher next fall. Eleven premiums will be offered for Leg- horns, eleven for Plymouth Rocks, and‘eleven for Rhode Island Reds. The E. A. Barker Drug & Jewelry confpany is again offering a good watch for the sweepstakes pair of chickens.

This makes eleven premiums and a total of $47.00 offered in this potato contest. Every boy and girl will want to try and win some of this prize money. Cash Prize by First National. A $25.00 cash prize has been of- tered by the First National bank to the largest corn yield from one acre and the contest will be conducted on practically the same basis as last year. Boys who enroll in the county contest will be entered in the state contest which will mean an opportu- nity to gain two prizes without fur- ther efforts. Any one desiring to buy local grown seed which was gathered be- fore the frost, well dried and guar- anteed to test at least 95 per cent, may get it from the Bemidji Agri- cultural High school department at $1.00 per peck. We will help you -get any kind of seed corn you want. It is well to plant more than one acre so as to have some choice in choosing your acre of corn in ‘the fall. o Barker to Give Watch. ‘.Those who do not raise an’ acre of corn are urged to raise a small patch of corn so as to compete for the prizes offered for the best ten ears and single ear lots. The E. A. Bar- ker Drug & Jewelry company offers a watch for the best ten ears raised. In order to be entitled to a premium, you must take care of the corn your- selves. Premiums on Vegetables. The premiums on fresh vegetables are about the same as last year, ex- cept in a few cases they have been raised "and the amount required. to bring reduced. It will be noticed, however, that new premiums are of- fered on canned vegetables. The Boys’ and Girls’ Canning clubs have made a great deal of money in some states. The idea is to can the vegetables ac-. cording to government recipes in pint tin cans or glass jars. Uniform la- bels are put on the cans and they find ready sale at the grocery stores. Complete information regarding this contest may be securéd from Supt. Stewart.

TO TRY KILTIES IN TOKIO AND PARIS London.—(By Mail to New York.) —You can always count on Harry Lauder. The canny Scotchman, who has taken pounds sterling galore from American audiences, is going to try his kilties and antics on Tokio, Pet- rograd and Paris. Lauder returned home the other day from an Amer- iean tour. “I shall begin work again in February,” he said. “The next time I hope to extend my tour S0 as to go around the world. I have not yet seen Canada and the union of South Africa. Then there is In- dia and our grand Allies. Why should | 1 not sing in Japan and in Petrograd, and in Paris.” While theatrical critics are wondering just what Lauder’s bare knees would do to the cold Russian winters, or what “I Love a Lassie” would sound like to the Japanese; no one is doubtful that Lauder would save francs, rubles and yen just as if they were dollars or pounds. Lauder has a son who is a lieutenant in the §th Battalion, Ar- gyll and Southerland Highlanders, and is "expected to go to the front soon. Tuesday afternoon the members of the Mopthers’ club mef at the public library where the subject, “The In- fluence of Clothes Upon Character,” was discussed. Papers were read by Mrs. J. J.

(Continued rrom Page 1.) minion in 1516, after the war be- tween the Ottoman Sultan and the Egyptian Mamelukes, and for 300 years the sanguinary quarrels of the landed shiekhs and the never-ending exaction of Oriental grafters kept the country in a state of chaos and de- pression. In 1840 the power of the Sheikhs was broken and the Turks began to strengthen their hold, but although they have done much for the improvement of the country, the blight of Ottoman rule still oppressed the “land of milk and honey” and keeps fertile plains and valleys sterile. At first sight it would appear to be the simplest plan to grant the Zion- ist’s appeal for a Jewish state, but there are difficulties in the way. If there were the nuclei of a Jewish ad- ministration in the country, it might be easier, but there are not, and the Zionist movement has not led to any great stream of Jewish immigration. There has been but little agricultural, political or other development among the Jews in Palestine, and the Zion- ist leaders were, perhaps, more im- pelled by the desire to restore the an- cient religion in the Holy Places. Would Object Strongly. Right here the Christian powers would object strongly. Toleration has never been very marked in Pales- tine, but with the Turks in control the Holy Places were at least kept by neutrals. Neither the Roman Ca- tholic- Greek Orthodox, nor Protest- nomination to obtain absolute control over the places which are holy to them all, and it is clear that there must be neutral or joint administra- tion. A Christian state under Brit- ish protection, is England’s idea of the solution, on the ground that Great Britian has had more experi- ence in governing people of various races and creeds, but the other na- tions will naturally protest that Eng- land is grabbing more than her share| of the plunder. A neutral state guaranteed by all the great powers, order being kept by, and the.guardianship of the Holy Place entrusted to an international gendarmerie, is another suggested so- lution, but recent experiences of in- ternational control in Macedonia, Crete, Albania, etc., do not promise the elimination of friction. Looking around, then, for an impartial ad- ministrator, removed from the whirl- pool of European politics and reli- gious squabbles, the Powers may find no more satisfactory candidate for the job than America. It is pointdd out that the United States has for many years taken a leading part in missionary and educational work in Asia Minor and no country has dis- played more enthusiasm with 1less idea of personal aggrandisement. Hence the possibility of the stars and stripes waving over Jerusalem is by no means remote, according to “in- ternational ‘dopesters” here. In speaking of the fire which total- ly destroyed his home at Nymore last Saturday night, W. C. Paulson this morning said: “Mrs. Paulson and T wish to thank the people of Nymore and Bemidji for aiding us in saving as much of our household furniture as-they did, and also Walter L. Akers, state agent for the Old Colony Insurance company and Reynolds & Winter, 1local agents, for their prompt adjustment and settlement, being just four days after the fire.” How Mr. Davis Got Rid of a Bad Cough. ‘‘Some time ago I had a very bad cough,” writes Lewis T. Davis, Black- water, Del. My brother, McCabe Davis, gave me a small- bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.. After taking this I bought half a dozen bot- tles of it. but only used one of them as the cough left me and I have not been troubled since.” Obtainable ant churches would permit -one de- peverywhere.
