No Wet Celebrations

Just one of the burning questions OF the hour
is the one that Will keep The hotel banquet
rooms throughout the east dry when the tune
comes to celebrate football victories. Already
the matter is causing grave concern among the
authorities in charge of the large educational
institutions.
They are recalling some of the orgies that
followed certain OF the large football contests
of last year and the year before, when in dry
times and in supposedly dry towns the like OF
the wetness occurring was unknown in previous
history.
Although much of the true inwardness of
the football parties was kept from the public,
the facts got so lar around as to cause a num-
Der of Investigations, in which Several leading
universities as well as the naval school at Ann
apolis were involved.
This season an attempt on the part of college
authorities and others Interested Is to be made
to see TO it that the boys have u perfectly dry
time, by placing in the hands of federal enforce
ment officers the responsibility of stopping the
drinks at the source.
The larger hotels have joined in the good
work and have agreed to see that their guests
obey both the letter and spirit of the law while
in their several hostelries, They have arranged
to call upon the enforcement agents when vio-
lations OF the law are noted, and have ordered
house detectives and managers to watch for
bootleggers and others suspected of bringing
liquor INTO the hotels.
Prohibition enforcing officers, will be at all
the principal games and they will be there in
droves with instructions as to their duties and
persons having bottles and TASKS of liquor at
football games are liable to arrest on charges of
illegally transporting and having liquor in their
possession. Prohibition agents who see a per-
son drinking from a flask will not hesitate to
seize the flask and the possessor and take both
to the nearest police station. Persons also who
expose containers of liquor in hotel dining-rooms
Will be in danger of losing their liquor and will
be liable to arrest.
OF course it is a humiliating situation, but
school authorities have had some bitter exper-
fence and want no more of it.

Relieved the Situation

LOVELL-Because of tho action
of the Lowell school board last week
in Diminishing the high schoI pupils
and a willingness on the part OF
those pupils. to enter into the spirit
OF the matter. a serious crisis in
the pee harvest has been avoided.
according TO H. S. Looper. agricul-
turalist Of the Great Western Sugar
company.
There Is an immense acreage OF
sugar beets in tho Lowell country
this year. and because of the rainy
condition of the weather and the
continuation of rain. during the ear
ly part of the harvest, 1t was de-
layed almost to the danger point OF
getting the beets cut of the ground
before they froze in.
There was nothing compulsory in
the matter of the pupils going into
the fields. but school was dismissed
for h a purpose and we are very
pleased to report that a majority OF
tho enrolment took advantage of
the holiday to assist the Lowell farm
ers in getting their beets out of the
ground. and incidentally to earn a
little extra money for themselves.
, 1923-10-24
Twenty-Five Tons

LoVELL-Of course It is early in
the harvesting and final results will
not be availasle for some time yet.
but the crop this year has looked
like "the best ever and early re-
turns would indicate that such is
the case.
Down on the Samuel Cotner farm
east of town, which is rented by VIII
liam Winterholler, they began dig.
ging their beets during the past
week and the first four acres
plowed put of the ground measured
% tons to tho acre. That may or
may not be his best beets. but Will
liam is a farmer who gets results
and the farm produces willingly for
careful toiling.
Taking the price paid for beets
last year as a basis. and the yield
Of hat first tour acres will run 5000
per acre.
The Big Horn basin is a good
place to grow beets. and incidentally
it is a good place in which to live.

The Bean Crop

CoDY-Crop estimates place the
loss at fully fifty per cent on the
northern bean crop and the contract
entered into by the farm bureau
members OF the Big Horn basin will
fall short of being filled. Continued
rains after the beans were ripe and
ready to harvest thoroughly soaked
the crop and the tare of discolored
beans will be very heavy. The fields
that were still standing or in win.
rows suffered equally. Park county
did not go into the crop Is heavily
as the other counties OF the Basin.
Farmers in the vicinity of Basin
will take the heaviest loss.

Herder Vanishes

ROCK misunderstanding par
ties are this week securing the hills
in the Sublet Meadow section in an
effort to solve the mystery of the
disappearance of Chas. Urrata. a
herder, who was last seen on the
10th Inst. Whether the disappear
ance is the result of foul play. or
other causes. is not known at this
time. as no trace of the missing
man had been found.
Urruta was a herder in the en-
ploy OF Frank Yates and was hold
ing a band of sheep in Sublet Mead.
ows. so miles north of Rock Springs.
With the exception of a herder
named Mike Smith. who vas in the
employ OF w. E.. Dewey. and who
was holding a band of sheep about
a mile away, there was no other
person in the vicinity. The camp
mover of both outfits had gone to
look after the needs of other herd
ers.
Last Friday evening the flock
under the care OF Urruta began to
stray n this caused another man
in the Yates employ to visit Urruta's
camp. When he arrived there he
found the camp in good shape. with
Urruta's supper on tho stove. but
the herder absent. After waiting
several hours for tho return of
Urruta. he became alarmed and fired
his gun a number of times. hoping
to attract the attention of the miss
ing man IL he was in the vicinity.
When no trace of Urruta was found
on Saturday. a general search was
started.

To Utilize Straw

Farmers of the west will watch with keen
interest the results of the efforts of one of the
largest handlers of wood pulp in the world to
use straw in making paper. According to re-
cent adyices from Montreal, the firm in question
which has its headquarters in WINNIPEG ar.
rangements have been completed for the con.
s%truction of n new pulp mill in which western
straw instead of pulp wood will be used.
A mill is to be placed in each of the prairie
provinces. Straw pulp mills are said to be in
successful operation in France and Italy. IL
straw from Western farms can lie made into
paper, there will not ONLY be some small added
revenue for the farmer but a saving to each
gate in its purchases of paper, on which freight
charges must now be paid. Moreover use of
straw for this purpose will effect a saving in
our timber resources.
