BIG BOXING PROGRAM FOR
EVENING OF FOURTH
Boxing fans of North Nebraska will
have opportunity the evening of the
Fourth of July to witness one of the
lest boxing cards ever staged in this
section of the state. The program is
being given by the K. C. Athletic
club as one of the attractions of the
big semi-centennial home coming and
three days racing meet and will be in
a monster open air pavilion now be
ing erected back of the offices of the
Seth NoLle Lumber company.
The main event will be a ten round
go between Ray Carter of Sioux City,
Ray Carter, Sioux City
who will weigh in at 147 pounds, and
Charley Long, the fighting Omaha
negro, who will fight at 149 pounds.
Long is one of the fastest fighters in
Nebraska in his class and carries a
knockout punch which his friends
claim should assure him of victory.
Carder however is considered by Sioux
City fans and local sports who have
seen him fight as fully the equal if
not the superior of Long in glove
science. Be it known that Mr. Cartier
also carries a sleep producing punch
that has won him the victory in many
encounters. In addition to the main
event Frank Kane of Winner, South
Dakota, 160 pounds, and George
Barma of Omaha, also 160 pounds,
will mix it in a semi-final expected to
_____ _____ t
be just as fast and furious as the
main event. Kane has been putting
them all away in the 160 pound class
up in South Dakota and out in the
Black Hills. Local fans wdio have
seen Mr. Barma perform at Omaha
say that he fights every second of the
time between the sound of the opening
and the closing gongs. Several fast
preliminaries are being arranged tc
precede the two big numbers on the
program, one a live round match be
tween two 118 pounders and another
between two heavyweights.
NOTES FROM THE NORTHEAST.
Monday night the Wertz farm lost
by lightning nine high grade Angus
cows and calves. Insurance will cover
part of the loss.
First cutting of alfalfa will be
general this week if weather condi
tions are favorable. It is reported that
the first cutting will be a light crop.
Ralph Phillips representing the,
Continental Insurance Company was j
in this part of the county Tuesday
adjusting a loss of cattle by lightning.
Emmett Wertz went to Sioux City,
Thursday on the Burlington, returning
home Saturday via Norfolk and
O’Neill. He reports corn crop pros
pects far below normal.
We are informed by those that have'
been over parts of Nebraska, where j
land is selling at much higher prices!
than here, that the corn crop pros
pects is better in Holt county than in
the territory they visited.
Leslie Wertz, Grant Alder and
Frank Oberle drove to Clarks, Ne
braska, Monday with trucks, return
ing Tuesday with two Angus sires
for the Wertz farm, purchased of
William Williams. Breeder of Aber
deen Angus cattle.
It is reported by those who have
the experience with sweet clover as a
pasture for cattle and horses is es
pecially, whore pasture and is limited,
valuable. Some danger from bloat
after a heavy due or rain. Alfalfa is
more valuable for hog pasture but
more dangerous to bloat cattle than
sweet clover. Sweet clover is a soil
builder and inoculates the soil for
alfalfa.
R. K. McKown has sold the buildings
on the farm he occupied before mov
ing to whert\he now resides. Those
buildings were owned and occupied
for several years by C. E. Downey and
family, now of O’Neill. One of the
buildings at one time was owned and
occupied by G. W. Damon as a resi
dence and store building in the old
town of Star. The frame is cotton
wood sawed from logs that grew on
an island in the Niobrara river. A
saw mill was located near the river.
