BEGINNERS, BAND HOLDS
~ EXCEPTIONAL MEETING
Fifty-two Boys on Hand Tues.
day Night to Take Active
Part in New Glass

Fifty-two boys, the majority OF
which are about twelve years old, as
sembled last evening at the band
room promptly at 7:30 in answer to
the call issued by G. Oliver Riggs,
director of the Juvenile band, for
the organization of beginners
band. AT least seventy-five boys are
wanted for this new class and in
order to permit the additional num-
Der to join another meeting has been
called for Friday night at 1880.
Members of the new band were
assigned to instruments and this as
signment will be continued at the
next meeting. Work for the band
was outlined by Director Riggs, who
also impressed upon the boys the
necessity of constant practice.
This will be the last beginners
band to be organized in Bemidji fol
about two years, says Mr.. Riggs, and
he urged that all boys who have been
intending to join at a. later date
change their plans and join at the
Friday meeting.
Mr.. Riggs comments very highly
on the promptness of the boys to re-
port for practice and says that he
has never seen any organization:
which take so much interest in being
on hand at the appointed time. This
kapplies to the Juvenile band as we'll

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS
ORGANIZED THIS SUMMER
Several Clubs Handicapped
on Account of Lack of
Leadership

Taking advantage of the presence
of A. J.. Kittleson, assistant Boys
and Girls club leader, in the county,
county agent Dvoracek, visited the
consolidated schools at Solway and
Carr Lake. Due to lack Of local lead
ership and to the fact that the cOun-
ty agent and county superintendent
OF schools, because OF other duties,
were unable to supervise the work.
The local clubs organized in various
parts of the county and the individ-
ual clubs were not as great sue
cess as interest taken in the spring
promised.
Bread-making, garment-making
and other domestic science work can
be carried on and finished during the
school year while teachers are pre-
sent to lend encouragement. Most
Of the boys work requires local lead
ership during the summer at which
season discOuragements are sure to

munities to carry on club work. aft

OF the school year. A large number
of those who entered into club work
finished their projects successfully.
Enthusiastic support by the princi-
pals of these two schools was indicat-
ed and promises much for club work
in their schools.

BELTRAMI COUNTY WOOL
HELD FOR HIGHER PRICE
Several Counties Have Con.
signed Wool to Chicago
Warehouse for Storage

The Wool Growers of western
states, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa,
Michigan and Illinois have pooled
their wool and stored it with the
National Wool Warehouse and StOr-
age company at Chicago and are hold
ing it there for fifty cents per pound
for quarter blood. This storage COM
pany is storing, grading and market
ing the wool of this pool for three
cents a pound and providing storage
for five months. The. MINES Wool
Growers have employed George Nc
Kerrow to act as their representa-
tive to see the grading. weighing ana
marketing Of Minnesota wool.
Fifteen counties of this stat" have
consigned their wool to this Wool
Warehouse company, the others are
holding their wool 1T home.
Beltrami county has approximately
10000 pounds of wool, which ia be-
ing held on the farms awaiting a
favorable market. The time Of pool
ing was set for June "a, rs and &c,
but because of drop of price the
growers were instructed to hold their
wool at home until future notice.
Since the meeting during the coun-
ty fair, when it was decided to hold
the wool until offered a better price
George McKerrow advised immediate
consignment of wool in order that
the wool might be graded at once and
be ready for sale.
Over 200 circular letters were sent
out to wool growers Of Beltrami coun-
| ty whose names appeared on the wool
growers list in the Farm Bureau Of

whether the wool should be consign-
ed to Chicago or whether 1t should
be pooled and sold Independently here

reply!
Up to date only about ten per cent
of the replies have been received.
Growers are urged to reply at once
in order that the directors may know

Income From Roadside Sales
to Tourists Adds Greatly
to Farmers Purse
EGG SHIPMENTS ARE
HEAVIER THIS YEAR
Price Slump Has Proved Big
disappointment to Many
Potato Growers =

St. Paul, Mimi. Oct. 13.-Indebt-
edness of Minnesota farmers will be
reduced many thousands of dollars
this fall, as consequence of income
obtained since last spring from sales
to automobile tourists and it seems
extremely probable that this phase
of farm business will be greatly de-
veloped next summer, Judging from
reports received during the past week
from bankers throughout the state
for the weekly review of Minnesota
enterprise. prepared by the Mer-
chants National bank of St. Paul.
Although it willsbe difficult to esti-
mate the volume of business in farm
produce which was transacted at the
roadside this summer and fall, bank
ers throughout the state are being
asked to confer with farmers and
give approximate figures. It is
known, however, that thousands of
pounds of Minnesota butter and large
quantities Of vegetables, fruits, eggs
and poultry, were purchased by tour
lists. Sales on the better known
highways were heavier than on the
state roads.
Business of this kind has become
so heavy that the Jefferson highway
especially between Minneapolis,
Osseo and Anoka-has literally been
lined with farmers booths, on Sun
days. A few drivers have complained
to local authorities. It has been Gus
tomary for, the farmers to establish
their booths just off the road and
offer Il variety Of products for sale.
A preliminary investigation is said
to have disclosed that the booths are
not dangerous to the great majority
of automobile travellers but that they
may have worried a few reckless
drivers.
The past week brought practically
complete reports on crops. Latest
advic~s did not alter the essential
announcements, or forecasts, carried
in previous reports issued by the
Merchants National bank. Oats and
corn yield abundantly; clover brought
wealth to many farmers; sugar beets
were very good in spots and fairly
good in some districts; there were a
few satisfactory wheat yields but the
crop as whole was small; flax, bar
ley and other small grains we're ir-
regular but many big yields were
reported. Numerous farmers report
ed tremendous potato crops but the
price slump. proved disappointment
to growers. Raising Of tobacco and
cane was successfully accomplished
in some sections.
Warm October weather has kept
hens on the job and shipments of
eggs have been heavier than a year
ago. 1t is possible that every county
in the state may be included in the
declaration that the pure bred cattle
industry is developing along such
broad lines that Minnesota will rank
as top notch state within a year
or two. Scores of farmers from Iowa,
Nebraska, Wisconsin, Illinois, Kan
sas and other states have, urged
Minnesota breeders to exhibit more
freely at shows of national interest.
Every county fair, with less than a
half dozen exceptions, was featured
by record high grade stock exhibits
and numerous farmers shipped their
cattle to the fairs in their own trucks.

AND WORK WITH PLAYERS
: -. B.. : l.. -,
Second Team Puts Up Stiff
Fight in Scrimmage to
Harden Regulars

If "pep" and activity in practice
means anything in football games,
then tip yourself to watch the Be-
midi High school eleven Ego for
Detroit when the two teams meet
Friday afternoon on the local grid
iron.
Of course everything wasn't sat
isfactory in practice yesterday,
Coaches Smith and Diedrich spent
considerable time pointing out Be
midji's mistakes in the East Grand
Forks game and devised remedies for
them. The second team went into
scrimmage with the regulars In a
session that lasted until dark.
Work With a Vim.
All was not entirely we'll in that
work, the regulars, occasionally, fail
ing to solve some of the Detroit
formations as used by the scrubs. But
their failures were offset by the will
ingness with which they went into
the play, and they want it known
that Detroit needn't expect any easy
game here just because they defeat
ed the Moorhead High school team
Coaches Don Moleskins.
Principal ]. w. Smith and DR.. J
| w. Diedrich, coaches donned the
moleskins in yesterdays practice anc
the high school gridders showed ne
mercy when an opportunity present
ed itself to upset or tackle their tut
ors. The regulars lined up against
the scrubs, who were using Detroit
formations, but for the most part thu
regulars carried the ball. The,
would execute one formation ant
Ithen tho coaches would recall it anc
have the players repeat the play ii
order to correct errors.
Passes Stopped.
A feature of Bemidji's defensive
work yesterday was ability to stoI
every effort of the scrubs to complete
attempted forward passes. The scrubs
made repeated efforts to advance the
ball by the air route but the reg
ular backs were always there tt
! check the play and intercepted the
ball on several passes.
! Must Develop New Halfback.
!, The loss of Riggs for the remand
| er of the season, who has been play
ing right half, means the developing
of another man for that position II
less than a weeks time. Yesterday
found both Stevens and Stapleton a.
the position. Both youngsters are
working as we'll as could be expected
for the length of time they have beer
at the position and no doubt Friday
will find both of them in the fray tt
show their Inettle.
Juvenile Band to Play.
The ,Bemidji Juvenile band will
again be out for the game as they
