big building thrice daily. From 1000

Valley City Automobile
Show March Is; l6, II

Valley City is to have an automo.
bile show and big one. At meet
ing Saturday night the local represen-
tatives of 81 automobile companies
met at the city hall and unanimously
voted to put on a show March Is, 16
and II.
In addition to this five accessory
dealers applied for space for an exhi-
bit, as did one motorcycle dealer.
Secretary Moe, of the Commercial
club, presided at the meeting, and
Marc Harkins asked as secretary.
Committees were appointed to meas
ure the Armory where the show will
be held, to allot space to exhibitors, to
decorate the building and arrange for
the necessary advertising.
There was the best of feeling among
those attending the meeting, all con-
ceding that cooperation and hustling
would make the show an unqualified
success. Outside inquiries for space
are already coming in, and the most
conservative estimates are that every
inch of space will be utilized
The most important thing about this
exhibit, which is to be understood from
the beginning, is that it is FREE. The
local automobile men are financing
the project, and visitors and seekers
for automobile knowledge are invited
to come, not only once, but often. In
addition to the exhibit there will be
concert OF an hour every evening by
the Valley City Municipal band. Other
entertainment may also be provided.
There will be other announcements of
the good things in connection with the
show, both through the news and ad-
vertising columns Of the papers. The
dealers are out to make the show
something out of the ordinary, and all
that is necessary for it's success is for
the people to turn out en- masse and
boost for the Valley City automobile
show.

WEIGHT WHEAT

1t took four bushels and Al pounds
of No., 1 Northern wheat to make a
barrel of flour and five bushels and
rs pounds of D feed wheat, or As
pounds more of D feed wheat than Of
the No. l Northern. While the D feed
wheat made little less flour, it made
that much more bran and shorts.
The -four from the D feed wheat, as
compared to the -four from No. l
Northern, make larger loaf, but it is
not as white. 1t is, however, more
nutritious. The color of the flour
made from the D feed wheat is on a
par with the minimum for Mime

eliminating four samples from the 40

color would be fully up to that Of a
