No intimation was given as to
which ticket the league will file its
candidates on, but there is a well
defined rumor that it will be on the

maries, but it is believed that it has
been fully decided to make the race
this year on the democratic ticket
The remainder of the state ticket
and the party on which the race will
be made will be decided at tomor-
rows session. The work is being
done in joint session of the league
and the Labor league.

ton all the way through There was
no serious hint of any other candi-

General S. c. Ford, who had been
taken and favored, too, according to
some of the inside gossip, by A. C.
Iownley, the league manager and
national president, got no champion
on the floor when it came to speak
ing for candidates from the floor.
The delegates first limited themselves
to five minutes each to present the
of the respective candi-
dates and the names were presented
by ballot and throughout the hour
and a half that was spent in eulo-
gizing and criticising candidates, just
two got attention. They were Wheel
er and Senator J. w. Anderson of
Richland county.

WILLISTON BOYS FIND
WOLVES PRETTY FAST

The heavy shower that fell Satur-
day afternoon put the ball ground in
a condition that compelled postpone
ment of the game with Williston. A
double-header was played Sunday af-
ternoon and showers on all sides
threatened to drive home the few
people who risked a wetting by COM
ing out to see the contest, but by
the latter part of the first game the
skies had partly cleared and the
games were finished without further
dampness except to the spirits of the
visiting team.
The Williston boys have played
some good games this year, won
close one from Grenora and played
Glasgow's professionals 6 to l, but
they had bad day in Wolf Point
last Sunday. The pitchers, Gardiner
and Ray were batted without mercy
by Schaffer's sluggers in both games.
The muddy ground made accurate
fielding difficult, and, as a result the
Wolves ran up lopsided scores, IT
to 0 in the first game and 16 to L
in the second. The second game went
but seven innings.
Siebert pitched the first game for
the locals and had no difficulty in
holding the visitors scoreless and al
lowed them but four harmless hits.
The second game, Manager Schaffer
went into the box and was less kind

HAS
VALUABLE PATENT
A. K. GULHAUG OF WOLF POINT
INVENTOR OF IDEA FOR
PRINTING PHOTOS
is GRANTED 2 PATENTS
Rapid, Adjustable Device In Use A
Year Bids Fair To Net Owner
Many Thousands

A. K. Gulhaug received final of
fetal notice this week from the Com
missioner of Patents at Washington
that his application for patent rights
on an auxiliary Photographic print
ing frame had been allowed. Mr..
Gulhaug made application October
"a, 1919, through Watson E. Cole
man, a prominent patent attorney of
Washington, for a patent on his in
vention, and has been practically GER
tain of receiving a patent for sever
al months. In the meantime he has
been granted patents in Canada and
has made application for patents in
England, France, Belgium, Italy and
Japan.
The Basic Idea
The inventor has spent a great
deal in both time and money on his
idea and is naturally gratifed at be-
ing granted patents that will protect
him. He has followed photography
for many years and is proprietor of
the Wolf Point studio. He says that
DIlHLlUS
pictures he has been endeavoring to
evolve a scheme for facilitating the
printing of pictures of varying sizes
with greater speed. The invention,
while simple in appearance and easy
to understand when the working
model is demonstrated, is still too
complicated to attempt to describe
here in detail. In brief, it is a de-
vice by which pictures may be rapid
ly printed from negatives of any
size within given range. A strip of
film that has not been cut apart can
be printed in this device. Films that
have curled are easily handled. The
device is small and can be used in
connection with any of numerous
printing outfits, designed for print
ing by electric light, that are now on
the market.
Thoroughly Tested
1t is evident, even to a novice.
that Mr.. Gulhaug's invention is prac-
tical and remarkably convenient and
t is strange that no photographer
las hit on the idea before. The
model in the local studio
las been in use for year. While
made by hand by Mr.. Gulhaug and
somewhat crude it has thoroughly
proven its practicability.
A firm of mechanics in Minneapo-
is are at work on the machines and
ONE of them will be out within a
ew weeks. In August, Mr.. Gulhaug
will attend the national convention
f photographers at Minneapolis and
viii demonstrate his machine before
hat body. Several Photographic con-
erns are already interested in the
nvention, and it seems certain that
he inventor will realize a handsome
eturn for his idea. He states that
e will be in no hurry to dispose of
is invention, but will take time to
resent it to all the larger photo
raphic manufacturing concerns.

HOW MANY ACRES IS
FAIR DAYS PLOWIN'
THEY USED TO SAY TWO BUT
TIMES HAVE CHANGED
ITS e2o NOW

Just suppose a couple of men, one
from Montana and one from New
England were standing at dusk in
the midst of section of level prair-
ie. The easterner remarks that it is
fine piece of land, and that it is
too bad it is not in crop. The west
erner replies that it doesn't take long
to do that. Tomorrow night at this
time, this $40 acres will be plowed
and seeded to flax" Very likely the
canny Yankee from Connecticut
would smile politely while in his
mind he would be thinking. "You
either have a stock Of fine stuff in
your cellar or else you are a plain,
coarse liar and believe me to be ex-
tremely gullible." But gentle reader,
the above might happen and the
Montanan might be speaking the
truth. Nothing is impossible in the
west, especially in Montana. Just
read this:
Poplar, June 23.-The worlds
plowing record for one day with the
use of tractors was broken here last
Friday by the Fort Peck units of the
Montana Farming corporation, when
$40 acres of land were plowed from
8 a. m. to 8 p. m. The previous
worlds record, held by the Grow
Agency units of the Montana Farm
ing corporation was 382 acres in one
day. Seventeen tractors, IA Ault-
man-Taylor and Case engines, were |
used in the contest, which attracted /
widespread attention among imple- ]
ment manufacturers, financial men /
and farmers. Representatives OF I,
the larger implement manufacturers
were on the ground to take pictures
and keen scores.
The test was made on a four-mile
strip, nearly level, and besides break
ing the ground the $40 acres were all
seeded to flax in the same operation.
There were IS engines started, and
all but one finished with perfect
score.
The big engines ran continually,
not stopping even for fuel, water or
oil, and the engineers and plowmen
we're given their "chuck" on the
go" In actual travelling distance
The engines covered $50 miles during
he running time, with the winning
engine covering Il miles.
There were three prizes given by
he company for the best scores
made by the engines pulling the
blows and the engines pulling the
lrills. j. w. Carr, engineer and Lou
1alman, plowman, won the first prize
or the engines pulling the plows,
While Ellis F. Thackery, engineer and s
i. r. Aslacken, drillman, took first {
,rize for the engines pulling the '
lrills.
There were about 80 men interest
ID in the actual conduct of the con- :
est aside from the company officials
corers and manufacturers experts, :
nd all these men received bonus
ay, in some instances amounting to q
25 for the days work. The engi- = :
eers received 10 cents bonus for
very mile made, while the plowmen =
nd drillmen got cents for each
lile covered. :

and pleasant memories of Wolf Point
with their short-time guests. Guns,
blank cartridges, colored paints and
comic costumes combined to make a
jolly and lively season. In the
case of one train, from st. Louis,
Mo, which passed at 1870 Friday
morning, many of the sleeping tour
lists were dragged from their berths
and put through their PAGES out on
the platform in nighttime attire.
They took it all in good part and set
Wolf Point in their journals as
poor place to sleep.
From Grand Forks
The bunch from Grand Forks,
members Of KEN temple, had ar
ranged special stop of an hour and

ers stunts.
The pleasure and enthusiasm of
he people from the south over the
sights they were seeing in the West
vas genuine. They were refreshing
y informal in their manner and
'eady to take up conversation with
anyone who cared to talk and it was
ndeed a pleasure to meet them. They
hought the green fields and prairies
we're beautiful and they were an
nous to see the mountains and Gla-
Ter Park. They wanted especially
