Big A. 0. u. W. DAY PUT
OVER UNTIL SUMMER

The A. o. U. w. field day and
Sheik ceremonial, planned and ad-
vertised to be held in Wolf Point on
October 27, was at the last minute
postponed until next summer
Byron Yates, state manager for
the A. o. U. W., who is in charge of
the plans, found it was impracticable
to go through with them this fall on
account of the BUSINESS of the sea-
son. The month has proven to be
the busiest of the year for all bust
ness men and for many farmers, and
some Workmen in distant towns who
had intended to come, reported that
it would be impossible for them to
do so. A fair attendance could have
been secured and local Workmen
would have gone through with the
affair in successful style, but Mr..
Yates was determined to make it the
biggest kind of a success when it is
finally pulled off.

WOLF POINT LOCAL
CORN SHOW HELPS

Wolf Point territory is boosting
corn, the Culbertson show, and the
Northern Montana Corn Show, by
holding a community exhibit, We'd
nesday, Oct. 31st.
Corn that is exhibited at the Wolf
Point show will be entered at the
Culbertson show, and also the Chi
nook show, which will give the farm
ers in the western territory an OPP
portunity to exhibit in high competi-
tion by entering their local shows.
This community exhibit also prom
ises to be one of merit for the rea-
son that there are many pioneer corn
men in this territory and liberal cash
prizes are being offered by the three
banks on all the common varieties
of corn.
Any farmer who wins a ribbon at
the Northern Montana show will re-
fleet great deal of credit upon him
self and his community, for the rea-
son that competition is going to be
of the keenest type, and it is only
the interest stimulated through local
shows that the farmer becomes
student of corn.-D. B. Noble, Co.
Agent.

OH BOY TALK ABOUT
YOUR CLOSE CALLS

About five o'clock Tuesday even
ing o. T. Stennes went to his base
ment on an errand and when he
opened the door was met by burst
of flame. The furnace room was
filled with fire and smoke. 1t was a
situation that called for quick action.
There wasn't even time to turn in
an alarm to the department Hav-
ing an efficient member of the fire
department, Bill MeConnon, in the
store, the two of them grabbed hand
extinguishers and tackled the job
themselves with excellent success.
It was the biggest kind of piece of
lutk that sent 0. T. to the basement
just when he went Five minutes
later would probably have been too
late to prevent at least heavy dam
age.
A quantity of paper and rubbish
had accumulated in the furnace
room and in some manner had be-
come ignited from Goals from the
ash pit. The furnace room has
wooden walls and they were well
scorched.
Any trash in your furnace room?

Away with lead of a length,
Papyrus seemed to stop and Zev took
the lead as they passed the paddock
gate. The American cold held this
lead of length until they reached
the stretch, where Earl Sande called
upon Zev for speed. The English
colt, driven hard by Jockey Steve
Donoghue, failed to get up and when
they passed under the wire Zev was
running under restraint
Great Crowd Cheers :
One of the greatest crowds in

WONDERFUL SAMPLES
OF MONTANA CORN

Little King Corn has lot of
friends in this country and is gain
ing new ones every day Among
them is Len Smith of Vida. He was
in town today and brought with him
samples of his white dent. One lot
of ears he left at The Herald Office
and a dozen he will enter in the com
munity Corn Show which will be on
during Carnival Week. If you visit
the exhibit room, you will see Mr.
Smiths corn, which speaks for itself
and speaks loudly.
The writer knows from long ex-
perience in corn country that Mr..
Smiths samples will compare favor
ably with the average of the best
corn grown in South Dakota, Iowa
or Nebraska Large, long, well filled
ears, perfectly matured. Mr.. Smith
says he has been farming here since
1915 and raising corn for several
years. Some of his neighbors have
been raising corn longer than he has
and say they have had no failures.
He came here from Missouri and
Montana has shown him that it is a
corn state His fifteen acre field
this year, he says, will average 35
bushels to the acre. Next year he
expects to plant 35 or 40 acres.
A man from Iowa examined sam
pies of Mr.. Smiths corn and said
they had nothing in his state to beat
it.

DIVIDE FARM CLUB
REVIEW WORK OF YEAR

Last Saturday the Divide commun-
ity, consisting of practically all the
farmers northeast of Wolf Point and
northwest of Poplar, met at their
community center for the purpose of
holding their annual community
meeting.
The entire afternoon was devoted
to business session, taking up the
accomplishments of the past year in
community work, and talking over
program to be followed out this
coming year.
The community work that had
shown the best in the Divide COM
munity was the crop improvement
work, especially wheat and corn,
together with modification of till
age methods, insect and rodent con-
troll, together with the social bene-
fits derived from community meet
ings and social gatherings.
At six o'clock big chicken sup
per was furnished by the ladies of
the community, and some two dozen
chickens were disposed of at this
grand banquet. Following the sup
per literary program was held, and
was contributed to by the three
schools of the community as well as
some of the community club farmers.
Following the literary program the
day was ended by a good old times
dance.
The following community commit
teemen or the officers of Divide COM
munity are largely responsible for its
success: Harry Skrien, Ben Smith,
Lawrence Holum, James Matajoski,
Ben Zimmerman, Mrs. 0. A Mum
son, Hayes Stewart and Mrs. Ben

CORN SHOW EXHIBITS
ALREADY COMING In

The First State Bank is accumu-
lating some dandy samples of corn
and among the best is some Mime
sofa 13 grow by Hank Cusker, a
beautiful, deep-grained yellow corn,
long ears, solid as a piece of oak,
which proves that Hank can raise
just as good corn as he raises horses.
The bank also has some wonderful
ears of white dent brought in by
Len Smith and mentioned in another
story, and also some fine samples of
different varieties of flint.

chants. There are sure to be lot
of lucky people and one person with

@ Special Prices
The daily prizes and the grand
prize of an automobile are, of course
attracting a great share of the at
tention. But in reality the liberal
special prices that will be made by
on a great many lines
and items, even more than are adj
vertised, mean much more to the
buying public in dollars and cents
than the prizes. The stores of Wolf
Point are exceedingly well stocked
and actually compare favorably with
5he stores of cities twice or three
times as large as this. Wolf Point
prices are always reasonable and on
his occasion they will be the best

There is much interest in the daily

to convert their extra be-
ongings into cash.
