FARM DIRECTORY PRINTED

The Herald has finally gotten out
the Farm Directories promised more
than a year ago to farm owners who
named their homes and sent in the
names to The Herald. Two copies
are being mailed free to each owner
in the directory together with the
comment and suggestions below.
Since the message is for those who
have not yet named their farms, quite
as much as for those who have, it is
published for the benefit of all our
readers. This directory of go at
tractice farm and ranch names is
believed to be the first thing of it's
kind ever gotten out in this part of
the country. That such a number of
people had sufficient interest and en-
terprise to name their homes is very
much to their credit and character
ICES the settlers on the land.
Here Is Your Farm Directory
Enclosed herewith we are sending
you two copies of a directory of
names of farms in Roosevelt, McCone
and Valley counties tributary to Wolf
Point.
These names were chosen and sent
in, at our invitation, for publication
in the Farm Directory department of
The Wolf Point Herald, most of them
a year ago and more. 1t was our
idea that the naming of farm homes
was a good custom to foster and one
that would give us all greater pride
in our developing country, an increas-
ed sense of at-home-ness, and would
tend to convince people at a distance
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1923-07-26

that this is an established country
that has arrived at some degree Of
prosperity and stability.
The Herald hopes the custom Of
adopting lanes for farms and rancho:
will continue popular, and that this
list of 80 will be doubled this sum
mer and fall. All permanent farm
suitable name that they fancy (not
too long). Those who have named
their places should boost the idea
along with others who have not.
This directory was promised more
than a year ago, but various exigen-
cies have arisen to prevent the com
pletion of the job until now. We
are very glad to be able to send them
and hope that they prove of some
interest and value to you all, and
that you will retain at least one copy
for reference.
The Herald will be pleased to pub
fish all additional names <or revised
names sent to it, and urges that COM
plete data accompany them-farm or
ranch name, distance and direction
from Wolf Point, stock brand, if any,
complete post office address, names
of owner or owners 1t occurs to US
that a feature that could be added to
this list of data with good effect
would be the mention of the chief
line of industry or the thing in which
one specializes, such as: diversity
ing, grain, dairying, grain and pro-
duce, corn and hogs, corr and cattle,
livestock and feed, cattle, horses,
purebred stock, poultry, some
variety of pure seed, etc. This would
obviate the need of putting this de-
scriptive feature into the name, which
often makes the name too long for
convenience.
If a considerable number of names
in during the season additional
leaves will be gotten out that can be
pasted in the back of these books.
Or, possibly, if it seems desirable to
get out new, revised directories, that
may be done. The Herald is glad
to render this small service to it's
many good friends. 1t is ambitious
to build such a reputation for news
and service that nobody will want to
be without it, or fail to pay for it.
There are absolutely no strings to
this farm directory service, but to
who recognize the value of not
only naming their home place but
advertising it, and perhaps their spec
al product, on printed farm station
Try, we wish to drop the suggestion
hat we have a print shop second to
lone in this part of the country.

MRS. BUTTREY LEAVES
ON EASTERN BUYING TRIP

Mrs. F. A. Buttrey of Havre was
in Wolf Point last Friday, meeting
friends and attending to buying de-
tails for the Buttrey-Swift Co.
Mrs. Buttrey has long been recog-
nized as an authority on ready-to-
wear and it is due to her good judg-
ment that the ready-to-wear depart
ments of the Buttrey stores have
grown to the present size.
Mrs. Buttrey will visit Chicago,
New York and other eastern buying
centers to select the fall line of hats,
coats, dresses and other wearing APP
parel for the women's ready-to-wear
departments of the Buttrey stores in
Havre, Shelby and Wolf Point.
She will be gone several weeks.
Part of this time she will devote to
buying special orders for many of
their customers.

Motor Trucks for Farms

TODAY, as never before the tasl
confronting the farmer of America
calls for every help that machinery
can give him. The task of supply
ing an ever increasing population OF
city jewellers with food calls for the
introduction on the farm of every
possible labor saving, crop increas-
ing device that can be obtained.
And this situation finds partial re
lief in the use of motor trucks.
1t would be folly in any discussion
of the needs of the American farmer
to set up the motor truck as a cure
all for his transportation problems
as a means of abolishing horse equip
ment from his acres and as a substi-
tute for all his hauling devices. Both
the motor truck and the horse have
distinct and valuable parts to play
in the business of farming.
Auto Changed Living Conditions
Just what the auto truck can ac-
complish for the owner of any farm
may be stated in general terms.
Under modern conditions in the rural
districts there are few farmers whose
access to their nearest trading and
shipping point is shut off by impas-
sable roads. In other words, given
the proper equipment, every farmer
can reach the nearest town Or rail-
road station handily and in a short
space of time.
All of us know this is so. We have
all seen it demonstrated by the pas
senger motor car. We have seen
the American farmers social exist
ence-his ordinary living conditions
and his relation with his neighbors
entirely shifted by the autombile.
From apart from his fellows, the
farmer has been brought close to the
world about him by the passenger
motor car. His convenience in liv-
ing has been obtained by the auto
mobile. He has been given oppor-
tunty to enjoy the advantages Of
fered in the town and city and at
the same time keep the pleasures of
life in the open country.
Truck Opens New Markets
The passenger motor car has done
a wonderful thing for the farmers
social life.
The motor truck is doing just as
wonderful a thing for his business.
For the motor truck has opened up
new markets for the farmer.
1t has closed IN the pan between
harvest and the sale of his products.
1t has reduced his percetage of
loss through spoilage and delays in
And it has saved him countless
precious hours of time-hours that
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1923-07-26
WHY, OH WHY?

The Standard is puzzled. 1t says
County Attorney Brown admits he
has been nicely treated by the official
paper. So the o. p. can't understand
why Brown should refuse to be a
party to holding up the county to the
amount of some $3.50 and handing
the money to the Standard in pay
ment of delinquent tax publication
claims that the county attorney has
found to be padded at least 40 per
cent The commissioners turned
down the claim on advice of the
county attorney. The people win and
the Standard loses. Sad, sad, but
the Standard cannot expect such big
pay for its courtesy.

RETURN FROM LONG TOUR

Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Coffey and Mr..
and Mrs. J. c. Herman and children,
a party of ten in all, have returned
from three weeks tour of Yellowstone
Park and the scenic highways of
western Montana. They left over the
south route by way of Miles City,
Billings and Bozeman and then into
Yellowstone Park. Afterwards they
visited the principal cities in the west
end of the state and intended to go
to Glacier Park, had not the storm
left the roads in such bad condition.
They spent two days at Manhattan
visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Patton, for
merly of this city, who r pleasant
ly located on a small irrigated farm.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1923-07-26

are vital in the business of farming
where success or failure depends SO
much upon weather conditions.
Truck Should Show Profit
For the farmer to realize a dollar
for dollar value in a motor truck, it
is necessary to use considerable care
and forethought in the selection of
the truck, as to its construction, size
and equipment.
A motor truck on the farm is just
another piece of machinery and it
should be so selected that it will pay
it's way. In other words, every motor
truck on the farm should show a
profit in dollars and cents for its
owner.
What are Trucks Qualities
Consequently the work to he done
must be given consideration. The
character of the loads to be trucked
the nature of the roads to be travelled
and the number of days per year that
the truck can be used and the mile
age it will be called upon to deliver
all have a part in determining the
size and style of truck to be pur-
chased.
Then the inherent qualities of the
truck must be considered. Is the
truck so built that it will do the
work? Has it the qualities that make
for economical operation? Does it
come from the factory of a recogniz-
ed manufacturer of sound business
standing and does it's maker offer
facilities for prompt and satisfactory
care of the truck during its years OF
service?
All these points must be considered
if the motor truck selected is to give
the full measure of service to the
farmer.
Oldsmobile's Claims
The qualities best adapted to the
needs of a farmer are to be found in
Oldsmobile trucks. This statement
is possible today because it has been
demonstrated beyond a single doubt
by the Oldsmobile trucks already in
the service of farmers in all parts
of the country.
Oldsmobile trucks have demon
strated their ability to do hadr
work in every line of hauling to
which they have been put. They
have been built to this end over a
of years dating back to the
beginning of the motor truck indus
try. Naturally, this background of
axperience reflects itself in the mod
ern Oldsmobile truck.
Bodies are built for every hauling
need.
Oldsmobile wins by comparison.
