three per cent the bill will be killed
in the committee of the whole.

| recently they had never nad basket
ball in their schools. However, stal
players could be picked from each OF
the different teams and during the
games these young fellows furnished
many thrills with their sensational
playing.
Culberts son-Froid First
The first round of the games open
ed Wednesday morning with Gull
bertson and Froid as curtain raisers
Referee Combleuth of Tioga, N. d.
showed from the start that he was
going to be master of the situation,
and unqestionably proved himself to
be exceptionally well qualified to
handle all situations. The fact that
there was no criticism from the lines
shows that Mr. Cambleuth gave uni
versal satisfaction.
In the first game between Culbert-
son and Froid, both quintets showed
that they were playing under high
tension and lacked the smooth team
work of other games. Hogan on the
Culbertson team, played stellar ball
and was a favorite among the fans
throughout the tournament. Froid
played a good, clean game, but were
obviously outclassed and outweighed.
The game ended with Culbertson at
the long end of the score, % to 10.
Froid Band
From the very first the Froid
school band startd playing and great
ly added to the life of the tournament
by furnishing music throughout the
games. Credit is due the
director who has so efficiently trained
the boys and girls of the Froid schooi
in music. The band is featured with
a trombone solo selection which it is
a pleasure to hear.
Dancing in Evening
Other music was furnished by the
Scobey Jazz orchestra in the even
ngs, when dancing took place, and
to say that Scobey has a lively bunch
Of musicians is putting it mildly.
The afternoon session of the first
was opened with Poplar and Scobey

ROUND TRIP RATES
FOR HOMESEEKERS
GREAT NORTHERN RESTORES
NORTHWEST COLONIAL
TION METHOD

The establishment of the round
trip homeseeker tickets by the Great
Northern Railway to points in Min
nesota, North Dakota, Montana, Ida
no, Washington and Oregon marks a
revival of the old colonization meth
ods which have been employed by
this company for so many years The
homeseeker tickets provide cheap
transportation for prospective set
tiers from the central states. This
rate will be- in effect the first and
third Tuesdays of each month, March
to November inclusive, from all points
in the middle western states as far
east as Chicago.
The owners and renters of high
priced agricultural land in the cen
tral states and young men looking
for locations are thereby given an op-
portunity to investigate the advan-
tages offered homeseekers along the
Great Northern Railway at a very
trifing expense. The tickets permit
stopovers in both directions, which
gives the settlers the opportunity of
deciding for themselves as to which
section best suits their needs.
The general reduction in the value
of farm products and consequent los
ses suffered by farmers everywhere
during the past two years is forcing
upon the owners and renters of high
priced land the Importance of secur-
ing cheaper lands of equal produc-
tivity.
The reinstatement of low round
trip homeseekers tickets and the re-
duction in charges for carload lots
of settlers effects to pre-war levels
are certain to bring about a revival
in the movement of settlers to the
Northwest. In the broad expanse of
fertile land, magnificent natural
scenery and healthful climate, the
Northwest offers to the most robust
and energetic manhood of the United
States real opportunity

the biggest events that has been here
for some time Commencing after the
arrival of the train Tuesday, which
carried special coaches to accom-

referee, trainers and fans, and bands
Scobey was mecca of sports, con-
tests and entertainment, which ended
Friday morning with the playing of
the championship game between Pop

1t is roughly estimated that some
rs people were here as representa-
tives of the schools taking part, be-
sides large number of people from
along the line came to take in the
excitement. Various committees ap-
pointed from among the business
men, cooperating with the school
very ably, succeeded in accommodate
ing all those who came, and were on
the job every minute to see that all
received every courtesy possible. The
entire program for the three days was
carried out in very smooth and
orderly manner.
13 Basketball Games
The basketball games held
throughout the time, excepting the
hour of speaking Ten teams, repre-
senting nearly all the towns in the
Montana district which
takes in Phillips, Valley, Roosevelt,
Sheridan and Daniels counties. This
tournament furnished more basket
ball thrills than has ever been wit
messed here and was to decide the
team of this district,
who will go to Bozeman and COM

Please find enclosed check for re-

The Willamette valley, Oregon, is

although last Thursday we had enough
snow right here in Portland to go
sleighing, but only lasted one day
This morning we noticed men out
planting seed in their gardens before
leaving for their days work. We
all have tender spot in our hearts
for Montana. If the weather man
would only use little judgment in

IRON Vs. WOODEN PLows

In Siam they still use wooden
plows, but the government expert
mental rice farm has been trsing
out some iron ones. James p. Da-
Wis, United States consul at Bang
kok, reports that work can be done
more quickly with a wooden pillow.
II was noticed that the iron pillow
is a greater strain on the cattle than
the ordinary wooden pillow, and it
was noticed also that it often slips
aside, but makes better burrows than
the wooden pillow.
On the whole the iron pillow was
found to be an improvement over
the wooden implement, il only be-
cause il is less liable to break. Some
further adjustments are necessary in
the particular type Of pillow used, SO
that the depth OF the furrow can be
regulated. During the trial the pillow
went too deep in wet soil, though
il worked well in soil that was SIM
ply moist.

Scientific Exactness.

An instance illustrating the exact
methods now followed In all braaches
OF science Is furnished by the up
setting Of all the results OF the geo
detlc survey Of Algeria based upon
the station OF voirol. which had beer
chosen as the point Of origin OF co
ordinates. II has been found that
owing to some subterranean pecu
liarity affecting the direction Of the
plumb-llne, there Is a strong devia
tion from the vertical ut voirol, and
as result a new starting point fol
the triangulation must be chosen and
new calculations made. The discov
cry was made by comparing the as
Economical latitude OF the new oh
servatory about three miles from
volrol with Its geodetic latitude as
calculated from the voirol data.
