Much experimenting has been done
with a view to utilizing the hurds, or

Ohio factory used several thousand

Flax growing appears TO be on the

With an appropriation of $1,000 t.
be given in cash for the best yields OF
wheat on summer titled land, the Mon
tana Development association heads
pxixa list which promises to reach q
value Of many thousands of dollars
according to an announcement made
by the organization general offices.
Implement manufacturers. railroad
companies, manufacturers and whole

grand prizes, business men in each To-
cality will be urged to post prizes for

Prizes viii be awarded for yield

tillage clubs will be eligible to COM
pete for them. Decisions will be made
by affidavit Of the grower, his neigh
bors and his thresherman, according
to present plans of the association.
The division of the state into districts
will be made as fairly as possible, due
consideration being given to the num-
Der of members in each, comparative
soil conditions and other factors deter
mining the territory to be included.
1t is expected that prizes of on
siderable value, probably as many as
forty for each district, will be posted.
The list. the association is To- as
sured, will include valuable imple-
ments and manufactured goods in adj

The contest is a part Of the associa-
tons plan to promote better farming
methods in Montana and thirty sum
mer tillage clubs have been organized
already as a result of a tour with
Hardy w. Campbell, noted scientific
dry farming expert, who lectured in
many counties.
Field men who are expert scientific
dry land farmers, are now being n
gagged by the association to go into
every county in the state, organize
clubs where this work has not already
been completed and instruct tillagc
club members in the details of scien-
tific farming.
Every farmer in Montana, associ-
alton officials say, will be given an
opportunity to join a summer tillage
club and will receive instruction in
the approved methods of dry land
farming which have been proven sue
in. Montana and other semi
arid states for years.

this year, with al average. yield Of

worth on an average Of 20 cents a

10 cents a pound. This would bring
an average value Of the crop to sos

Flax acreage has increased from
5000 acres In 1919 to 5000 acres in
1920. The yield is estimated at from

WEDNESDAY SET
FOR DAYS DRIVE
FOR RED CROSS
Roll Call c a mpai g n
Plans Well Prepared
an d Organization is
Completed.

Next Wednesday will be the big
day in the annual Red Cross Roll Call
drive for the Caldwell chapter. While
officially the drive begins Saturday,
Armistice day, no organized effort
will be made to solicit memberships
and larger contributions until Wednes-
day of next week
With an organization to conduct the
drive practically complete in every
community of the district, meeting
of campaign leaders will be held
Tuesday evening at the Red Cross
rooms here for final consideration of
plans for the campaign. Middleton
and Parma, both included in this dis
trict, will make the initial drive for
funds Wednesday. Other commune
ties will also endeavor to put the cam
paign over with one day campaign.
Most of these community efforts will
be made next week, depending upon
arrangements made by community
chairmen with organizations sponsor
ing the movement.
An effort is to be made this year to
make Red Cross contributions more
general by increasing to the utmost
the number of contributors. To that
end a thorough revision of last year S
contributors has been made. In some
cases the amount to be asked for has
been somewhat reduced.
Two thirds the funds used by The
local Red Cross this past year has
been employed twice in conducting
the work of the chapter, according tc
an audit of the Red Cross books COM
pleted recently by A. A. Binford, Local
banker.
More and more, the Red Cross has
come to be considered as charity
headquarters for all of western Can
yon county. 1t is the intention OF
Red Cross directors that this impress
sion shall be fostcrcd and that con
tributions to the Red Cross in the
annual Red Cross Roll Call may prop
erly be looked upon as an annual con
tribution to all charities.

Haydon Tells of
Red Cross Works.
Advises Contribution as
Purely Business
Proposition.

An appeal for support OF the Red
Cross in the annual Roll Call to be
undertaken Saturday was made Thurs
day before the Caldwell Kiwanis club
by Curtis Hayden. Mr. Hayden out
lined the local war record OF the or
ganization and traced its history un-
til Caldwell home service chapter
entered the field.
Support of the Red Cross is pure
ly business proposition, Mr., Hayden
said. Formerly you could not with a
clear conscience refuse a man when
he asks you for so cents on the street,
You know that you may deny the
needy person if you do. But there
are too many dishonest men who ask
YOU and everyone else they see for
50 cents. With the Red Cross func-
tioning you can, with clear con-
science, refer them to that organiza"
ton with full knowledge that their
needs will be cared for"
Mr.. Hayden cited number OF IN
stances that had come to his atten'
ton where the Red Cross had extend
ed a helping hand. He lauded thu
work that is being done in conjunction
with the county and asserted that de
s,;te adverse economic conditions, thu
county was not paying any sum ever
closely approaching what would hav'
been paid but for the Red Cross an'
its help in supervising county Chart
able work.

Every one of the college list of in

Huett broke his hand in the Pacific
university game. The injured men,
Der is healing rapidly, however, and
he may be back in harness by Novem-
Der H. when the Idaho Tech plays
here.
Little is known of the strength Of
the Montana eleven that Cornelrs
team plays Saturday. That close
score will result is the opinion Of
Coach Cornell. His own team is in
better shape right now than it has
been for some time and, whatever
Montana may have, Cornell believes
his players will give good account
of themselves.
Preparations are already being
made for the Tech game, the annual
southern Idaho conference classic.
Not only does the college eleven hope
to wrest the championship from the
Tech team but the day has been de-
signated as homecoming day" by
College of Idaho alumni and a goodly
crowd of old grads are expected to
return for the contest.
Special preparations are being made
for the reception of College of Idaho
alumni. In the morning of the game,
a parade will be staged down town.
And the parade, incidentally, will be
something more pretentious than any
thing yet undertaken by alumni. Co.
operation of Caldwell business men
was assured college alumni Thursday
when the Kiwanis club voted an ap-
preparation of $40 for float in the
parade and decided to participate in a
body. Detailed arrangements will be
in charge of the Kiwanis club educa-
ton committee.
