Great American Pastime. It was as enjoyable for the home rooters as bevo in a Budweiser ibottle. Score 12 to 4 favor Garrison. Two innings were all the visitors had to play to bring home the bacon. Bismarck spotted Garrison six runs in the first two stanzas. Probably thought they had to be polite to their guests. Very foolish thought, how- ever. Couldn't blame it on the umpires this time. They handled their jobs as smoothly as President Wilson got| handled at the peace conference. Which is some smooth. Several singles were stretched into three-baggers by outfielders’ fumbles. Bauer was as surprised ag an I. W. W. with calloused hands when he drew down Abeline’s scorching liner in the front part of the eighth. Fol- Cayou played a Hal Chase game at frst. Got thirteen put-outs and many of the throws were all over the lot. His stick work did not help much. Only one single, over second, in four times up. Bismarck came near pulling the overdone chestnuts out of the fire in tue fourth. J. Barber out on a fly to left field. His brother got a life on Bruhn’s fumble and stole second. Boehm hit safely to short, Barber ad- vancing to third, Bauer rolled the pellet to short and was an easy out at first. On a throw to third, in effort to-nab F. Barber, Abeline threw wild and Barber and Boehm raced home, with the first tallies. Norman ex- pired on a long fly to P. Lief. In the ninth, Bauer, safe on Stev- ens’ fumble. Norman lined to Stevens, who made the play at second unsuc- cessfully. Cayou hit to J. Lief and forced Norman, Olsen pinch hitting for Erbe. On Yonkers’ poor catch and heave to third, Bauer deposited the Jowing as it did J. Barber’s shoe lace catch in center on Tower’s “almost” | two-bagger, the crowd was even more surprised. In first inning, Lief brothers drew; safe tickets. Tower took third on his single which Boehm politely turned} into a triple. ‘Then Abeline scored Tower with a slashing single to short. Olsen was lifted in second inning after -Youkers singled, Hazelton was hit by pitcher, P. Lief tripled over second and J. Lief cleared the decks with a single and then took third on an error. But it was as late as a kid on the first day of shool. Six runs ‘had been scored by that time. Looked as pretty as a letter from home in Bismarck’s portion of the second. Eoehm and Bauer on base, due to four ‘balls and a fumble. Nor- man up. Nice easy drive to Stevens forced Boehm and a quick throw to Abeline nicked Norman’s chance for fame. Nifty fouble play even if we did not make it. Bismarck’s best hurler was playing left field. J. Lief brought his famous horse- shoe with him. A base on balls, a! single which carried him to third on an error, a miserable little tap to Erbe who did not know where to throw it, a life on a fluke tickle in front of the home platter, put him in the .750 class. His brother fared differently, two ‘base on balls, a triple, hit by pitched ‘ball, a single over third gave him an honest 1000 percentage. Roberts did not “knock 'em. dead.’ A slow grounder to second, a strike out, a life on Yonkers’ muff of an! easy fly, hit into a double play and a single over short with a stolen base} was all he got on the offensive. His; fielding was excellent, four difficult assists and three put-outs. Playing j third did not seem to bother him any. HARVESTING SHOWS POOR WHEAT GRADE Little Grain Will Run Better Than No. 3, Says Buyers Minneapolis, Minn. Aug. 11.—The harvesting of small grain is now be- coming general in North Dakota and about completed in South Dakota and the southern half of Minnesota. The weather has been favorable for har- vest until the past few days when rains have fallen. These have de- INDIGESTION Caused by Acid-Stomach Millions of people in fact about 9 out of 10—suffer more or less from indigestion, acute or chronic, Nearly every case is caused by Acid-Stomach. There are other stomach disorders which algo are sure signs of Acid-Stomach—beich- ing, heartburn, bloat after eating. food. re- Deating, sour, gasey stomach. There are many iments which, while they dc not cause much tress in-the stomach itself, are, neverthe- Jess, traceable to. an acid stomach. Among these are nervousness, biliousness, cirrhosis of the liver, rheumatism,impoverished blood, weakness, insomnia, melancholia and a jong train of physical and mental miseries that keep the victims in miserable health year after year. The right thing to do is to attack these aliments at their source—get rid of the acid- stomach. A wonderful modern remedy called EATONIC now makes it easy to do this. ‘One of hundreds of thousands of grateful users: of EATONIC writes:. “I have been troubled with intestinal indigestion for about nine years and have spent quite a-sum for medicine, but without reef. After using EATONIC for a few days the gas and pains in my bowels disappeared. EATONIC is just the remedy I needed.” 2 ‘Wehave thousands of letters telling of these marvelousbenefit, Try EATONIC and you, too, wil as enthusiastic in’its praise. Your drugpist has EATONIC.

Then Roberts singled over short and immediately stole second on the pitcher's windup. Rockford hit‘an an easy one to J. Lief and ended tie game. Big game Tuesday night. The navy} team with its twenty-piece band will drop their sea legs long enough to race through nine innings with Platz- man’s Colts. Same place at 7 p. m. Garrison.

The damage by grasshoppers has been vory heavy in North Dakota and they are still a big menace to the late corn crops of that state. ‘Many of the farmers are cutting their grain green in order to save it from these pests. There is a great range in quality in the wheat threshed, and only a smali percentage will grade better than No. 8. Much of it is of such light weight it will be used for feed. The early returns show wheat is threshing from 5 to 12 bushels to the acre. Owing to the spotted condition of the crop, it is impossible to accu- rately estimate it, but from a careful survey, indications are that the spring wheat crop in Minnesota, North and South Dakota will run from 130,000,- 000 to 140,000,000 bushels. The gov- ernment estimate for these three states last year-was about 249,000,000, ‘Some ‘barley and oats have been threshed in. the southern. territory. The returns show from 20 to. 30 bush- els to the acre, although ‘some spots are better, while others are not as good. Early samples have a good col- or, but these grains are very light in weight. Some oats in North Dakota are being ¢ut green as hay, in order to save them from the grasshoppers. Rye has been disappointing in most places and the yields are not up to early expectations, running from 5 to 12 bushels per acre. There are a few exceptions where the average is around 20 ibushels. Flax is apparently holding its favor- able condition’ in the eastern and southern parts of the territory. The bowls’ are well filled, and without further damage. this territory should show a good yield. There is fear now in. central and eastern Nort! Dakota that grasshoppers, which have already damaged some ‘flax fields, may attack! the remaining flax owing to much of the small. grain being harvested. ‘In western .North Dakota the heat and lack of moisture is hurting the flax crop. Corn is making wonderful headway and a large crop seems almost, as- surred.

Ad Thacher, the man who assisted Tex Rickard in promoting the bout,{ says he understood fhe referees were to work without compensation. Chris F. Wall, chairman of the To- ledo Boxing commission, said that he! {understood Rickard was to pay all bills. Lou Bauman of Cincinnati, who han-| died the Malone-Ralstrom bout, was} the first to present a bill. He found no money awaiting him and he wili appeal to Mayor Cornell Schretber, ; ex-officio member of the commission. Oliver Pecord, who refereed the Wii- lard-Dempsey affair, has not yet set- tled with the promoters. H to receive $2,590, it is said. The pro-{ moters offered him $520 and he is holding out for $1,090, being willing} to compromise for that amount. Heretofore the commission has en- forced a rule requiring promoters of ‘boxing matches to post a deposit suf-| ficient to cover all obligations. Ac-| cording to Chairman Wall the commis- sion took Kickard’s word for it this} time. Work of razing the arena at Bay) View Park is progressing.

D, Aug 11—Sheriff Charles! McLayghlin of Selfridge was in Mott} this week on official business. Sheriff} McLaughlin reports that the cattle rustlers are busy ‘in Sioux county at the present time and the officials of that county are faving a mighty hard time to capture them. The rustlers in many instances will slaughter the cattle outright, skin the animal and cut the brands so that they can not be detected. The meat is sold to the butcher shop and from all appearances there is a regular gang working in} Larmony. Mr. McLaughlin has secured ervices of the sheriffs of Mor-; ton and Grant counties and within a short time be hopes to capture the entire gang. AMERICAN LEGION MAKES BIG STRIDE IN ITS RECRUITING Membership Growing Rapidly in’ Response to Vigorous Campaign Great strides were made in the membership campaign of the Bis- marck post of the American Legion during the last week, it was an- nounced today. Former soldiers and sailors who served during the war are signing the memberrhip rolls dal- ly and it is expected before the end of August that practically every for- mer service man in this vicinity will have become a member. Considerable interest “has | been shown by the members in the propo- sal of the members of the Elks club jthat their clubhouse might ‘be, used by the American Legion -members.

That Never Be- ‘fore Has Missouri Been as Dry During August The Missouri river has never been so low at this time of the year since records have been kept by the Unit- ed States governmeni. The water now measures 3 of a| foot below the low jwater mark on the gauge when a year ago it was approximately five feet above that mark. This low stage of water + noi. reached in normal Years uatil November, according to the rec- ords. Last year the river fell over five feet from August to November and if this same decrease continues this year. the Missourj will consist of nothing more than a few stagnant puddles in the holes. i The cause of this condit‘on is the extremely dry weather in the entire northwest. Streams from North Da- kota, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and Washington, it is said, all drain ultimately into the Missouri river. j These streams are now practically dry | and as there is no snow or ice in the mountains there is no way by which these ‘bodies of water can be sup- plied. | — —+ MYSTERY OF PACKAGE | SENT WILSON SOLVED | ¢, St. Paul, Aug. 11.—The mystery of; a pectliar package mailed last week | at St. Paul, addressed to President Wilson, is believed to haye been solved | when word was received Thursday at} the postoffice that David N.
