Dernpsey himself was the promo

that boxing program, which grew out
of an argument with another youth

Dempsey, showing n certain business
acumen that has been noticeable in
both him and his manager In later
days, suggested that they hold the

A few days Inter they, pitched a ring
In the town dance hall. Dempsey
sold and collected tickets at the door
until it was time to fight. They
split the tSO "gate" and declared It
was "easy money."
That bout started Jack Dernpsey In

him subsequently the highest paid

Dempsey and his manager now

bout in New York City, with Ander

boxing Kenney, he was given $43 by
tho promoter. He signed to box
John Lester Johnson for $500, but
received only $100. In those days
there was no Jack Kearns present to
haggle for the boxer, and he decided
that New York was not the gold

led him to believe. The young fight

How Georges Carpentier, taken
from a Lens brewery, where he
worked as an office boy, won his first
battlerby knocking out Francois Des
camps, his instructor, when Des
camps attempted to chastise the
youth, is one of the choice legends
of boxing. Descamps s keen percep
tion on that day, as well as his
shrewdness and perseverance, has
been a most important factor in
bringing the French boxer to the
prominent position he now occupies.
Three four-round contests consti
tuted Carpentler's first year of ring
activity In 1907. Two of these he
won, defeating on points Ilourgeois
and Wetinck, French boxers whose
only claim to fame is that they once

more opposition in the third battle
and at the end of four rounds Car
pentier was the loser to one Mazoir,
another Frenchman, who has sunk
Into obscurity. Carpentler's totnl
ring earnings (or t hat year are said
to have been $184.
The following year was more suc
cessful. Twice in his 15th year the

Apricot Growing
In Valley Urged
The growing of apricots in Oregon
may become one of the great fruit
industries of western Oregon. There
are benches in the ltnseburg district,
areas in the South Umpo.ua and
bench lands near Grants Pass that
are especially adapted to apricots,
according to C. I. Lewis, chief of
horticulture for 14 years at the O.
A. C, and at present assistant mnn
nger of the Oregon Growers Co
operative association.
Other sections of the state that are
adapted to apricots are at Sam's val
ley, Wagner creek, Griffin creek and
other bench districts extending from
Jacksonville to Central Point. Ten
or fifteen years ago quite a few apri
cots were grown In the Rogue river
valley, but at that time they could

ning. After making an Inspection of
apricot districts In California last
fall, Mr. I-wls returned convinced
that the Tilton variety of apricots is
the one that should be planted in
Oregon.
The Tilton apricot blooms ten
days later than other standard varie
ties. II Is a heavy yielder and pro
duces fruit of large size and desir
able color. Another factor in favor
of the Tilton apricot Is the fact that
It is a favorite with canners. JX, Is
superior to either the Illenheim or
Royal for canning purposes.
The Tilton apricot tends to bear
regularly. It is not an alternate
bearer, which is true of a number of
varK'tles. Hut the Blenheim apricot
might be planted on a smnll scale
and might prove desirable, accord
Ing to Mr. Lewis.
Apricot trees are planted 30 feet
apart on good soil, while on poorer
soil 25 fet apart Is the right dis
tance. The trees are headed 20 to
25 inches and are cut back after the
first year to from 18 to 30 inches.
