B|ShARCK'S BIGGEST
YEAR SINCE 1906 IS
PREDICTED BY YOUNG

F. E. Young, who has had his fin
ger on Bismarck's pulse for a good
many years, believes the city is on
the verge of the heaviest land move
ment this region has known since
the boom days of 19O5-19O6. Not only
is there an exceptional local demand
for land, but queries are coming in
from Minnesota, South Dakota, Iowa
and Kansas to greater extent than
has been known in the last decade.
1t is anticipated that as soon as
spring blowing and seeding is finish
ed in these states, there will be an
influx OF land-seekers into North Da-
kOta. .,.a.
The promise of big prices and big
crops gives everyone reason to feel
pros perous,' said Mr.. Young today.
Flax now is selling at So, and
there's not much chance of its be-
ing worth less than 81 when this sea-
sons crop is harvested. And fax
is one of the surest crops we have.
A lot of buyers will pay for their
land with flax this year. The fact
that Kansas and Nebraska winter
wheat is an almost complete failure,
and that Argentine isn't doing any
shipping. will mean big prices for
wheat There's none left over from
last years small crop, and the mar
ket will have to have its wheat by
the time this years crop is harvested.
Therell be an unusually large acre
age, too, of, corp i. oats, barley and
rye, and we'll have more cattle and
hogs to sell thar we, have ever had
before" yiR5E sTt -.
Raw land is selling fast at $25 and
$50, some sales going at $35. Improv-
ed land is ready sale at $40 to $50.

Those who like sensations to sea-
son their photoplaying will find de-
light in "Mutiny," the Bluebird pho
toplay announced for presentation at
the l.. & S. Airdome tonight, with
Myrtle Gonzalez, Val Paul and George
Hernandez playing the leading roles.
Some of the more exciting episodes
include vigorous stand-up fight be-
tween the hero and one of the villains
in the piece; a shipwreck, following
realistic storm at sea, and the heroic
rescue of the heroine during the pro-
g.ess of raging tempect. The storm
effects have all been pictured while
Nature furnished the elements and it
required several weeks to get the
weather to match the desires of the
director in producing the proper ef-
fects. There is little artifice about
"Mutiny." 1t is one of those forceful
and rugged portrayals to which the
screen so admirably lends itself.
