BREEDERS ASSOCIATION
IS FORMED AT LARSLAN
ShOrthOrn Cattle. Committee
to Draft Bylaws.

The Larslan farm bureau commun-
ity, with w. j. Lind at the helm, is
working hard on the organization Of
a breeders association. They have
decided on one breed, the Shorthorn,
Everyone in the community will pledge
himself to use nothing but registered
Shorthorn bulls, and to castrate all
scrub bulls in the community.
At the head of this project is Knut
Knudsvig and C. G. Reimche. This
committee, of which Mr.. Reimche is
chairman, will meet with the county
agent to draft the constitution and
bylaws for the association. The plan
is to have the association in working
form by spring. To start the project
right and show his confidence in the
association, o. B. Moore on December
A, purchased Shorthorn bull of
Lewis Berg & Sons of Coopertown,
N. D. This brings breeding stock to
Valley county from one of the best
milking Shorthorn herds in North Da-
kota. It is presumed that the breed
ing of the sire is Scotch, from Berg S
Agatha, very high producing COW
and a winner at many fairs. There
will be about five more such sires
shipped into Larslan community this
winter for the association.
Another project that the Larslan
community is lining up on is the
barbed wire telephone. Mr.. Knudsvig
is chairman and will surely push that
project through to completion. The
plan under consideration is to connet,
the communities of Avondale, Grain
and Shamrock into Nashua. Avon
dale has about six phones working
now and Ben Sather, as chairman, will
complete the project this winter. Tho
Grain community has taken no def
mite action, but Chairman Charles
Barth has been busy. J. A. Hedine is
chairman of the project in Shamrock
community. With these men working
there is no doubt as to these com
munities being connected with Nashua
by spring.

LOCAL LEGION TO STAGE
GOODNESS GRACIOUS
Strong Cast and Chorus Selected for
Legion Play at High School,
January and 5.

Rehearsals will soon start for the
big musical comedy to be produced
under the auspices of the American
Legion, January 4 and 5. The entire
production will be under the personal
direction of j. R. Coggshall of Chi
cago.
Goodness Gracious" is poppy mu-
sical comedy, one that made Chicago
theatre-goers sit up and take notice
for 18 weeks last summer, and has
made decided hit on the road. Mr..
Coggshall brings special scenery for
the production as we'll as some beau
tiful gowns and electrical effects.
The theme of the play is an es-
pecially interesting one. A young
bride and groom, while spending their
honeymoon at Longbranch, N. j., were
out walking on the boardwalk one
morning when she stepped into a shop
to buy few things, leaving the young
husband to wait outside. No sooner
had the young lady disappeared when
pretty little widow came along with
cinder in her eye. The gallant
young man, while in the act of ex-
tracing said cinder from the eye of
the attractive one, was caught by his
better half and accused of flirting out
rageously.
From then on the young bride be-
gan to flirt with every man who
crossed her path. The young husband
| in desperation, takes her to a quiet
country home near Atlantic City. But
the bride is not to be kept so quiet
They have only been there two days
when she arranges house party and
invites all her former admirers and
their sweethearts. The groom is des-
perate. He finally consents to a plan
of his chum and bosom friend, to
stage farcial drowning and see what
the young wife will do. He goes out
in the lake and blows up the launch
supposedly drowning himself, and then
sneaks back to the house to find out
how the little bride is taking it all
He finds her even more hilarious than
ever and planning on her second mar
riage on the very evening of his de-
mise.
Many comedy situations arise and
the audience is guaranteed full ev-
ening of laughs. There will be a
peppy chorus. which will sing some
pretty songs and do some fancy step
ping. Some of the song hits are;
every Day." Someone" "Didn't You
Believe" "Rose Marie" 'I'm Hungry
for Beautiful Girls" Tomorrow,
"The Whichness of the Whatness,'
''The French Pastry Walk" "Ka-lu-a'
and "Oh Gee, Oh Gosh"
Don't miss this big treat. You will
get more than your moneys worth.

WHEAT SITUATION
lis INVESTIGATED
INQUIRY MADE INTO FACTORS
OF DOCKAGE, WEIGHT CAR
SUPPLY AND PRICE.
SEVERAL COMPLAINTS MADE
Attorney General Rankin Conducts In
quiry. Complainants Apparent.
ly Satisfied Investigation
Will Bring Results.

In an investigation lasti1 g all af-
ternoon Tuesday and ali evening until
II o'clock, Wellington D. Rankin, at
torney general for the state of Mon
|tana, brought out several important
facts regarding the wheat situation
in Glasgow and Valley county. The
factors of price and dockage seem to
be very good in this city because of
the fact that competition is more keen
between the elevators, the Glasgow
flour mill and the track buyers.
Several complaints were found to
exist, however. The local freight agent
of the Great Northern testified on the
stand that he had received orders to
supply the elevators first with empty
cars, more especially if the elevators
were plugged. Rankin contended, and
WAS upheld in this contention by VIM.
Ruffcorn, track buyer in Glasgow,
that by so doing the Great Northern
hindered the direct shipment of wheat
to the markets by farmers and made
for bad situation. Mr.. Rankin also
stated that this practice was contrary
to law and would be investigated and
prosecuted.
! The investigation brought out the
fact so it was stated, that short
weights had been given by certain
wheat buyers in Glasgow. This mat
ter is to be investigated further and
prosecutions ordered if the evidence
seems satisfactory for favorable
case.
The matter of the furnishing of
cars for Glasgow and nearby points
where there is no railway competition
and points such as Whitehall and SEQ
bey, were carefully gone into and dis
cussed. One case of where a man
loading at Hinsdale waited for ten
days after receiving loading orders
and did not get his cars, then drove
the sheep 155 miles overland to White
tail, was cited. The trip took over a
o week and the sheep were without
e water three days on the trip. Wher
this party arrived at Whitehall he
!. placed his order for cars and was
supplied the next day.
Another party waited at the Glas-
gov stock yards 46 days for cars af-
: ter receiving orders to load. The cold
weather came on and he left for the
Missouri river with his flock and will
have to carry them over the winter.
AS whole, everybody was well sat
, isfied with the investigation and the
3 hope is that it will eventually develop
into some good for the farmers and
4 the cattle men.
