Speculation Is Decried

When the farmer who owns a quarter section of good land gets the idea that 1t is not good enough for him and puts his surplus into some distant land pro- motion scheme. in Canada or elsewhere, he draws from the resources of his own community and engages in speculation that is just as risky as the ticker and blackboard type.
 ''The farmer is chosen as an example because he is the foundation of our economic structure. The same choice be- tween investment and speculation pre- sents itself to the city dweler. He is just as dependent on the welfare of his community as is the farmer. Local pros perity Is all he asks. and it is dependent largely on his willingness to wade in and help his neighbors.

Enthusiastic Meet
ing Of Fire Dept.

On last Wednesday evening,
persuant to the call from Secre-
tary R. B. Chappell, the Wibaux
voluntee firemen held their reg
ular meeting at the firehall, and
owing to other important meet
ings being held on the same date,
only about half Of the members
were present.
At this meeting various plans
for the improvement of the fire.
fighting facilities were suggest
ed, and will probably be adopted
at the next meeting which is to
be held sometime in December.
After inspecting the equipment
and following considerable dis
cussion it was decided upon to
purchase a number of rubber
coats, hats, boots, and other
paraphernalia essential in the
completion Of an up-to-date fire
department, and accordingly
committee of three; namely,
Messrs. S. B. and r. B. Chap
pell and F. J. Stipek, were ap-
pointed to make the purchases.
One of the valuable suggestions
strongly endorsed by the meet
ing was the necessity Of practice
drills, though it is not likely that
this work will be taken up dur
ing the cold winter months.

Gross Yellowstone
River by Wire''

Albert Yonkey and William

rather a remarkable experience on
Saturday, last, while Ell route from
Savage to the home of their sister
and cousin, Mrs. Ray Rumble,
which is oil the opposite side Of the
1ellowstone river.
Upon reaching the riverf which
was full Of floating ice, they dis
covered that the ferry had been
removed, and their being no boat
available, that the only possible
means Of reaching the opposite
shore was "by wire," there being
large cable stretched across the
river at that point, SO they mount
ed the wire and with considerable
pluck and courage, they successful
ly made the "long slide," though
it is doubtful if they would care
for repitition of their thrilling
experience, especially when it is
l2 below zero.
The cable upon which they eros
sed is SAID to be 500 feet long, and
hung from s to so feet above the
water level. This is probably the
tirst-an1 possibly the last eight
wire" stunt to be performed over
the mighty Yellowstone river.

Montana Gets list
Prize For Alfalfa

Billings, Mont. Nov. Is. In a
world competition, DR.. W. x.
Sudduth Of Broadview, exhibiting
Yellowstone Valley Alfalfa, won
the $1,000. cup offered for the best
display of alfalfa and its products
at the great American Land 4 r.
rigation Exposition held at Madi-
son Square Garden, New York,
which closed on November 18th.
This was one of the 9 large prizes
given.
For the winning OF this prize
by the Yellowstone Valley, Mon
tana can feel Justly proud, as al
falfa is grown the world over and is
the chief forage crop wherever
grown.
The Yellowstone Valley is the
pioneer in alfalfa raising in the
Northwest. It was first grown
here as an experiment about 1882
and today there are hundreds of
thousands of acres in this valley
alone, and is grown in all parts Of
Mantana and the entire Northwest
Alfalfa is absolutely the greatest
forage crop known, and the Vel
lowstone Valley is it's natural
home. 1t is natural fertilizer
and prepares the ground ideally
for sugar beets. Here we get
three cuttings per year, yielding
from 5 to 7 tons per acre, and
leaving good pasture; yielding also
good returns on $500. an acre
land. 1t comes rcarest to being a
balanced ration of all forage crops,
and is therefore very desirable feed
for cattle, sheep, and hogs, many
thousands of which are fed here on
alfalfa annually.
Mr.. Joe Wing, alfalfa expert,
who has visited and written up on
every alfalfa growing region in the
world, says there was more alfalfa
in sight here than in any district
he has ever visited. Billings is
indebted to alfalfa for its sugar
factory, as it was the many alfalfa
stacks in our immediate vicinlt
which attracted them.

Fire-Fighters Call
ed Out on Sunday

On last Sunday afternoon
which to our fond (?) recollection
was not a very mild one - the
Wibaux volunteer firemen were
called into service to extinguish
a bad blaze which was discover
ed in the engine room Of the
Farmers elevator.
The fre-fghting apparatus was
quickly put into execution, and,
although the flames were hard to
extinguish, owing to the fact
that the interior as we'll as the
exterior of the building was
sheeted with tin, a good stream
Of water was constantly supplied
from the Beaver Creek, and after
about an hour of strenuous fight
ing the blaze was conquered.
The fire was caused by an over
heated stove, which ignited the
boards on the wall under the
sheeting. The engine room was
practically a total loss though we
understand the building was in
sured.

Miss Cannon was resident of

that the young lady's friends in
this community are numbered by
her acquaintances.

during the show, which opens in

The best publicity work that
can be done for Dawson County

questions Of prospective home

make the same mistake at the st.

Every energy and effort is be-

worthy of the county. When
this is done the same effort will be
directed towards the development
OF the resources of the county.
