They are niiddleweights. ( Outweighed eight pounds, ands! seven years older than the game ! Eskimo, Cline dazzled his oppon ent from the first round to the I tenth. Instead of weakening, i?s had been predicted, Cline grew j stronger and in tho tenth was whaling away at Cleghorn with both hands while the Eskimo was holding on desperately. Fertilizers applied In Oregon to plowed land and mixffd' witlf Mhe soil by cultivation will furnish plant food for crops this summer.
