GARFIELD co. MEN
SEEK GRAIN OUTLET
DELEGATION FROM JORDON AT
WORK ON RIVER TRANSIT
PLAN TO WOLF POINT

A delegation of Garfield county
men are in the city today to in
Yvestigate the possibilities of trans
portation of grain via Missouri river
from landings along the northern
boundary of the county to Wolf
Point.
These gentlemen were S. @. West,
a prominant business man of Jor-
dan, VIM. M. Craig of Brusett, o. B.
Wickersham of Phon, and Dan c.
Aver, who drove them over. They
conferred with several members of
the Commercial club at the secre-
tary's office during the day and col
lected some information from Geo.
Littlefield and others bearing on the
matter G. M. Hanson who took some
interest in the matter of grain trans
.portation from the Garfield country
last winter, came from Nashua to
meet the delegation.
The Garfield county men had ex-
pected to meet Mr.. Slawson, the river
man, here, but on their arrival found
that he had gone up the river with
his boat to one of their landings.
They intend to return tomorrow and
meet Mr.. Slawson there.
Mr., West says that the northern
portion of Garfield county raised
100000 bushels of wheat last year
and that 10000 of it is still un-
marketed. This year rain has been
abundant and prospects are excell-
ent for crop of 10000 bushels in
the same territory. The part of last
years. crop that has been marketed
was taken to Miles City on the N. P,
Ingomar on the Milwaukee, and some
to Glasgow and Nashua. All of it'll
had to be hauled such distances that
the expense left little or no profit
for the farmers. The matter of
the grain from their large
and productive territory is a serious
one.

Rev. Johnson, who served in the

manner of dealing with the duties
and privileges Of patriotism. He en-

need arose, the cause of justice and
liberty. He referred separately to
the soldiers who had gone to the
front in different wars of our coun-
try, and laid stress on the need of

HUNDREDS OF COWS
OFFICIALLY TESTED
STATES CORPS OF 'VETS" IN
SPECT HERDS-No REACT
ORS FOUND YET

DR.. Little, veterinarian from the
State College, one of those working
in the COW testing campaign in this
county, returned to Wolf Point on
Tuesday after completing his work
in the Pershing community. AS soon
as DR.. Osborn returns from the Volt
Wide Awake community, they and
DR.. Richardson, who has been sta
toned here, will move over to the
central part of the county.
Both DIR. Little and DIR, Richardson
stated that there had been a fine re-
sponse on the part of cow owners.
DR.. Little said he had tested about
600 cows in the district assigned him.
DIR. Richardson said that owners of
dairy cows in the Wolf Point vicin-
ty on this side of the river had
freely availed themselves of his SER
vices.
A three-day period must elapse be-
fore the effect of the injected serum
can be observed, and the condition
of the animal known. In case of
part of the herds the report has
therefore not been made, but in such
cases as the result has been observ-
I'd, it is understood that the veteri-
narians have found no reactors. 1t
S very fortunate that this free serv-
ce by the state and federal govern
nent is available to stock owners,
those who sell dairy pro-
lucts, and it is also fortunate that
hey are showing such a good spirit
# cooperation, as pure milk is one

GENUINE CIVIL WAR
UNIFORMS in PLAY

Many of the scenes for 'The Heart
of Maryland" Vitagraph's big cpe-
cial production of the famous play
| by David Belasco, which will be
shown at the Liberty theatre on next
Thursday and Friday were taken in
whose supervision and direction the
picture was made, believed that only
in the scenes of the actual fighting
in the Civil War could the proper
scenery and atmosphere be obtained,
and to this end he took the company
into Maryland.
Mr.. Terriss' success in gaining real
and natural settings and splendid
types were greater than he had dared
to hope The southerners entered
into the spirit of the picture with a
will Many of the men, scores of
them veterans of the Confederate
army volunteered to appear in the
picture and did so. Old Confederate
uniforms that had seen actual service
in the great conflict were brought out
from their cedar chests. And the
women, too, helped. Treasured old,
but fine silverware and china were
loaned to make the settings exactly
as they were in the early '60s. In
every respect "The Heart of Mary
and" is presented exactly as if it
mad been filmed during the war.

BIG PARTY HONORS

at a delightful surprise party ten
dered them Wednesday evening By
over 100 people at the Sherman hotel
The party was held in the Palm~room
and dancing and cards formed the
entertainment. Punch was served
throughout the evening.
Mayor R. J. Moore, on behalf OF
the citizens of Wolf Point and as q
slight token of the esteem in which
the Pattons are held, presented them
with a purse, with the suggestion to
Mrs. Patton that this be used to pur-
chase some sterling silver.
Mr.. Patton was called on for a
speech, and in responding gave some
very interesting "reminiscences ex-
tending over the period from his first
view Of the place that has since be-
come town, to the present. Among
other things, he told of the time when
John Listerud unloaded a carload of
lumber on what then was prairie.
Everyone thought Mr.. Listerud was
crazy and that he would never be
able to dispose of so much lumber.
But when he did, and then got three
carloads more, people were positive
that he was over enthusiastic about
the development of the country.
Dof +Lo CT
residents of Wolf Point, and have
always taken a prominent part in
community affairs and have always
worked for the things which make
for better city. They came, to
Poplar in 1909 and Mr.. Patton was
employed in the Indian service there
for a time, later being transferred
to Wolf Point, serving as subagent
at Oldtown for five years. In recent
years he has been engaged in the
grain business. For a number of
years he served as deputy sheriff.
Mrs. Patton was instrumental in
circulating library when
Wolf Point was a small village. She
was president of the local Red Cross
during the war and for
he year following when the Red
Cross work was kept up. In this
position she gave unreservedly of her
ime and strength When the first
.pidemic of flu broke out and the
Smith rooming house was turned into
hospital, both Mr.. and Mrs. Pat
on devoted all their time to caring
or the flu patients and there are
many in the community who owe
hem a personal debt of gratitude
or their work at that time.
The community of Wolf Point can
ot but feel distinct regret at the
oss of two such estimable citizens
S Mr. and Mrs. Patton, and they. will
ear with them to their new location
ne best wishes of their friends and
cquaintances for prosperity and
appiness.
The Pattons will make the trip to
linois by car.
