COUNTY AGENT

Federal-state Harvest Labor Offices
for the recruitment and distribution
of the help that will be needed in
the principal grain producing dis
tricts of the state are to be opened
at once at Bainville and Great Falls
by the U. S. Farm Labor Bureau in
cooperation with the Montana De-
partment of Agriculture. In 1922 the
Montana Department of Agriculture
established temporary harvest labor
office at Bainville for the distribu-
ton of harvest labor recruited by
the U. S. Farm Labor Bureau. This
season trained men of the U. S. Farm
Labor Bureau will be in charge of
the Bainville office and also the one
at Great Falls.
Serves Five Counties
The Bainville office will serve the
needs of northeastern Montana
Phillips, Valley, Roosevelt, Daniels,
Sheridan and Richland counties; the
Great Falls office will be a clearing
point for Judith Basin, Fergus, Cas-
cade, Teton, Chouteau, Pondera,
Lewis and Clark, Gallatin and other
accessible counties.
Farmers will list their labor needs
with the county agents, who will no
tify the distributing offices of the
of men needed and the wages
offered. The distributing Office will
+O ha fxy
agents for clearance to the farmers.
Recruit From East
Labor for northeastern Montana
will be recruited from the east, and
it is likely a special. harvest fare will
be put into effect Because of the
ong, round about distances involved
t is not practical to secure labor
rom the east for central Montana,
20 efforts will be made to recruit
men from the west, as we'll as from
hose districts in Montana where crops
ire light because of drouth or grass
hopper damage.
While these two districts are in
greatest need Of the greatest amount
If labor, there are other districts that
an also use men from the outside.
Dhe Bitter Root valley, south of Mis-
oula, needs considerable number
f men for haying, harvesting and
ruit picking. The region around
'illon, in southern Montana, needs
len for haying, according to reports.
he districts around Bozeman and
[elena also need men.

POPLAR PLAYS LAST
GAME HERE SUNDAY

Two more games of ball with Pop
lar have been arranged, the first to
be played here next Sunday, starting
at 8 o'clock Manager Rae says that
Poplar has re-vamped team and will
appear on the scene of action chuck
full of confidence that they can break
the Wolves string of nine consecu-
tive victories. Whether they do or
not it is certain to be a great game
to watch.
The Legion team thought their sea-
son was closed and had disbanded.
Lack of practice is likely to work
against them but you know them, Al,
they are usually there in a pinch.
Let's have good old-fashioned gang
in the grandstand to make it seem
like real ball game

ORIENTAL LIMITED
ON new SCHEDULE
CT. NORTHERN'S FAST TRAIN
CLIPS HOURS OFF CARD
HICAGO-SEATTLE
EQUIPMENT DOES 1T
Several Stops Now Eliminated-N
Time In Effect Last
Sunday

Striving for better transcontinental
service, the Great Northern has speed
ed up trains l mad 2, the Oriental
Limited, so that the time between
Chicago and Seattle is cut two hours.
The new schedule became effective
July 30.
In announcing this forward step
in passenger and mail service, Great
Northern officials say that it was made
possible through superior equipment,
such as the heaviest class of rails,
large number of new engines of spec
ial type and through the fact that
the Great Northern has the best grade
through the mountains.
No Stop at Poplar
In arranging the new schedule,
several stops formerly made have
been eliminated. Between Wolf
Point and Williston no stops are made
by either of these trains. Between
Wolf Point and Havre the only stops
made by No. are Glasgow, Malta
and Chinook. and the only stops by
No. are Glasgow and Malta.
It is very unfortunate for the peo-
pie of this county, who are occasion
ally necessitated in going to the tenn
porary county seat, that these trains
do not stop at Poplar The railroad
officials got the permission of the
Public Service commission to elimi-
nate that stop. Train schedules can
not be changed every few weeks and
the schedule makers and the rail-
road commission, no doubt, had in
mind the fact that the permanent
county seat is Wolf Point and that
the county offices are likely to be
moved soon.
Under the new time card No. l ar
rives at Wolf Point at $40 a. M, and
No. 2 at $40 a. m.

adopted and program, based on the
better growing of these products, was
outlined for the next year. 1t is ex-
pected to make this organization a
permanent one and to encourage
every boy who is interested and who
is growing corn or raising hogs. 1t

THRILLING WITH HONOR"
is INTENSELY HUMAN

"Give us something human" has
been the plea of the motion picture
public to the exhibitors
In "Trifing With Honor" which
will open at the Liberty theatre on
Thursday for two days, the public is
presented with an intensely human
drama of the most gripping interest.
The story has its appeal to every class
of motion picture fans, because it is
the story Of a moral derelict who was
the idol of thousands of American
boys.
He had trust to keep-and to
keep it he had to tear down and re-
build his inner self.
The story first appeared in Col
lier's Magazine and is built around
an escaped convict who became pro-
fessional ball player to mask his iden-
tity. In the underworld he was
known as "The Gas Pipe Kid"
AS the home-run king of the Pa
cific coast league he was known as
"Bat" Shugrue.
In the years that followed his
break from handouts to a baseball
glove the "Gaspipe. Kid was forgot
ten, but "Bat" Shugrue became
name for hero worship on every sand
lot on the west coast where kids play
baseball.
Rockcliff Fellowes has the role of
Bat Shugrue and is supported by a
star cast.
