How To Grow WatermelOnS.

please give the best method of
growing watermelons on sandy
land? How much fertilizer should
| use? Does it pay to prune the
vines?"
There are thousand of acres in
melons grown where l live. Our
growers prepare the land in Dec
ember or January and check it out
SxS feet and put half a bushel or
more of manure in each check and
let it lie till spring to rot. Then
they add a handful of good fer
tilizer on this at planting time and
mix it we'll and make up the hill
and plant. When a good stand is
secured thin to two plants Then
scatter tablespoonful of nitrate
of soda around each hill and cult
vate clean. Never prune the
vines at all. In the absence of
manure put in the hill about
bushel of black mold from the
woods and then mix cotton seed
meal and acid phosphate equally
and put a handful of this we'll
mixed in the woods mold and COW
er and make the hill.-W. F. Mas
sey, in The Progressive Farme.

S-ecial Train To
@ Boost State Fair

The business men of Helena
have adopted a novel method of
boosting the Montana State Fair
this September by arranging for a
State Fair Special which will
traverse the various sections of
the state, giving the business men
of the capitol city an opportunity
of singing the praises of the fair.
The movement was launched
by George w. Casteel, vice-presi-
dent OF the Banking Corporation,
and has met with the almost
unanimous approval of the busi-
ness men of Helena. The trip
will consume five days, during
which all of the principal towns
along the lines of transcontinental
railways will be visited.
There is a general feeling that
the 1916 fair will far exceed those
of former years in every way and
for that reason the Helena busi-
ness men have decided TO use ev-
cry possible method of advertis-
ing the big state exposition.

to kindly fill out the statement
regarding acreage, ETC., at once in
order that the same could be SUBJ
mitted to the G. N. Ry. as an in
ducement for them to build at
least to Circle this fall.
So far quite a number have re-
sponded, but not all. Please at
tend to this at once, it will do no
harm, but may be of real value.
There are a few to whom cards
have not been sent out yet, but
these will receive some within a

out the cards.

Everything went fine and dandy
up to the 9th inning, when the

not stand for at all, and the game
was called off right there.

game, and if given fair play

From the following which ap.

there is probably some truth in

opened at an early date.

dition to certain routine business,

Moving Picture Show
Was Simply Great

In spite of the fact that the
roads were muddy and it drizzled
and rained last Tuesday evening,
in fact about 9 p. m. it just poured
down, there was large crowd
present to take in the opening
show at the new Princess Moving
Picture Theatre.
The first on the program was a
few selections by the Circle Band,
after which the audience had the
pleasure of seeing the first movies
ever shown in Circle. First of all
was beautiful slide bidding ev-
eryone "welcome;;" then one re-
questing the ladies to please re-
move their hats, followed by a
number of advertising slides by
different business men of Circle.
Then came the first part of a
big, five part feature entitled,
The Supreme Test" This was
very instructive and interesting,
and well worth the price of ad-
mission. After this came a COM
edy entitled, Married on Credit"
which kept the audience in one
continual roar of laughter from
start to finish. 1t sure was a
side-splitter.
But right here we wish to COM
pliment Manager Fox for the
splendid pictures shown. The
pictures were bright and clear,
and not any of that tiresome flick
ering seen in so many show
houses. 1t was simply perfect;
hats all there is to if. If you
lon't believe it, ask any one who
was there. We heard many COM
Dliments to the effect that the
show was every bit as good, and
act better, than seen in many a
own much larger than Circle.
Eugene Kirchner furnished the
music by tickling" the piano
throughout the entire program.
eugene is some pianist, too.
After the show which was
shown twice in order that those
who came in late could see it all
llso, there was a big, free dance
which was enjoyed by fairly
arge crowd. Messrs. Fox, Stuart
