A THRILLING CLIMAX

The photograph plays a big part
in THE Wolf" which comes to the
new Pullman Theater on Tuesday,
December 80. In the third act
it is necessary that the howl
ing of wolves be heard in order
tC carry out the superstition of
the Canadian forest that when
wolves howl in pack in Indian sum-
mer it means death for some man
before the moon shall rise and set
again. The wolves that howl in this
act foretell the death OF William Nc
Donald, the villianous engineer,
which occurs in a duel on "a dark
stage, so dark that you can not tell
which man is getting the worst of it,
There comes a fall, a deadly silence,
one is killed-but which-the engi-
neer or the French Canadian? A
match is struck and you see-what
you see. It's the big scene of the
play, and one of the greatest scenes
ever staged.

LIVE PROBLEMS FOR
WHEAT CONVENTION
" hich viii BE Held in Pullman on
the 9th, 9Th and Sth OF Next
Month

When we consider that in addi-
ton to the production of oats, barley
and corn, approximately one-seyenth
of all the wheat produced in the
United States is grown in the four
Northwest states, grain growing is
and will continue to be the leading
industry for many years to come
The state Of Washington ranks third
in the production of fall, and like
wise spring wheat and from present
indications the production of this
one commodity is on the increase.
In order to maintain, or better
still increase the yield per acre, there
are certain fundamental principles
that must be considered, some of
which are now fully understood,
while others are still in an expert
mental stage. 1t is we'll to know
the principles which are fully under
stood. This is particularly desirable
in the case Of grain growers who
and who have been unable to main
tain or increase the yield per acre
| because these principles are not
known to them. Generally the rea-
son why the yield decreases rather
than increases is undoubtedly due to
a system Of farming which is detri-
mental rather than beneficial for the
growing of grain crops.
Only few farmers know all the
weeds and a much smaller number
know how to eradicate them from
the farm.
DO you know how to conserve the
moisture in your soil to increase the
productivity of your land? Have you
studied the economic methods of
marketing and handling grain?
What do you know about rural
credit and farm finance? Certainly
the question of improving the wheat
and selling it on a basis of quality is
worthy of consideration. The work
lngs of the grain inspection depart
ment should not be overlooked.
Neither should the problem of farm
management, the bureau of farm de-
yelopment, and the department of
agriculture and the farmer be over
looked. These are questions that
have been purposely designed for
your benefit and will be presented at
the eighth annual Wheat Convention,
which will be held at Pullman,
Wash, January s. Z and s, 1914. All
railroads operating in the Northwest
have granted rate of a fare and a
third on the certificate plan.
GEO. A. OLSON,
Secretary Grain Growers, Millers
and Grain Dealers Association
of Pacific Northwest.
