Wales Patriots Observe Holiday

Lincoln's birthday, one of the ma.

recognition, is to be the occasion of
more than usual observance at Wales

patriotic gathering which will take

hood. At the head of the arrange.
ments is the commercial club of the
town with its president, Mr.. Joseph
Heisle, in active charge. Local and
out town speakers will take part
in the program. Quite a an attractive
part is to be in the hands of the child
rem of the public schools, while the
Wales glee club and mixed quartettes
as we'll as soloists will feature in the
music, not overlooking the Wales
band. On the bill also is found the
name of Rev. Father Cory, of Lang.
don, who is to give the address of the
day. 1t is safe to say that no
town in the whole state of North Da-
kota will have more of Old Glory in
sight than Wales on the anniversary
of the birth of Lincoln and it may be
added that the example set is one
that other towns can we'll emulate.

Calvin StOCknlan
Has Paying Herd
Four Years Breeding Aber'
deem Cattle Melted Big
Financial Return

H. p. Coder of Calvin, is one
of the Towner county farmers who
has made conspicuous success of
the stock raising business, although
he has been engaged in extensive
ly for but comparatively "a short
length of time. 1t is just four
years ago that he purchased Aberdeen
Angus heifers to the value of some
$1,75O. Since that time he has sold
upwards of S 5000 worth of young
stock from the herd and figures that
the present value of the animals he
still has on the farm represent about
five thousand dollars. A month ago
his nearest neighbor, Adolph Burmas-
ter, who lives just across the line
in Cavalier county, came over to
his place and picked out twenty
heifer calves, ranging in age from
six months to year old for which
he gave Mr.. Coder check for 81, 100
to pay for the bunch.
He has recently purchased from the
South Saint Paul stockyards 130
Shropshire sheep, and he expect
even greater returns from these than
he got from his cattle. In Mr..
Coder's experience in far ming he
gives as a summary, the most profita.
BILE animals are hogs and sheep, first
cattle, second, and horses third. His
concluding remark was that the
least profitable kind of farming in
his opinion is the raising of small
field grain crops.-Cando Record.

the home folks have received from our
soldier boys since they bid good bye
to the land of Uncle Sam. To learn
that they were safely "over there"
relieved considerable tension the end
of the week and came as good news
in many homes of this vicinity at the
weekend. The word received was
necessarily brief but letters of great.
er length and of much interest may
be looked for to follow soon. AT
present they, are in training camp

AMERICAN WAR PICTURES
At ELECTRIC THEATRE
American War Pictures.

American war PICTURES.
North Dakota is fortunate in the
enterprise displayed by the state
council of defense, which through its
secretary, F. o. He!lstrom, has ar.
ranged for the first showing west of
the Alleghenies of the United States
governments official films showing
this country's participationin the war.
These pictures may be called "the
billion dollar movie,' because they
show all that the United States is
doing with the money spent on the
great war. They give scenes in the
training camps, and parents and
friends may get a better idea of the
conditions under which the boys are
learning to be soldiers than they could
in any way short of an actual visit.
The making of the selected into fini-
shed fighter 'is shown in detail, and
there are also pictures of marines and
"soldiers at sea,'' the navy, the air
service and other branches.
How the war has affected industry
of the nation will also be seen in the
pictures, how the laborer end all, from
the leader of the business in his office
to the men who shock the wheat or
dig the coal, is vitally needed for the
prosecution of the struggle.
1t takes an hour and a half to show
the film, and perhaps in no other way
could so much information be impaired
in the same length of time. The SOL
diers are shown literally from the
time they leave home right up to the
front line trenches. The fact that
the idea for these war films was
President Wilson's, is illuminative of
the general policy of the president to
let the people know what their gov
ernment is doing with their men and
their money. incidentally these
films, if shown by private enterprise,
would be high priced, but shown fol-
the government by the State Council
of Defense, may be seen for 25, and
Is cents. The idea is not to make g
profit, but to Garry the facts to the
people, - If there is a profit from
the showing of these films in NORTH
Dakota it will be given to the Rec
Cross or some other organization do
ing war work.
These American war pictures will
be a special feature at the Electric
Theatre on Wednesday evening, Feb.
ruary 9Th.
