GOOD SHOWING BY
PHILLIPS COUNTY
co. AGENT LANTZ GATHERS
EXHIBITS, NOVEL METHOD
PREDICTS GREAT SHOW.

How many potatoes should make
a fair admission price to a movie
show?" This is the problem County
Agent H. L. Lantz of Phillips county
had to face recently in his County
The schedule Of admission charges
4 finally worked out on the basis of
the amount of farm products which
would admit an individual to a show
was as follows: II ears Of corn, dent,
flint or popcorn; one peck Of grain,
clean but not handpicked; one gallon
of beans, alfalfa, sweet clover, bronze
grass, or other grass seed; one peck
of potatoes of any of the acclimated
varieties.
Strong Interest In Phillips
This was Mr.. Lantz' method Of pro
viding a real countrywide representa-
ton Of Phillips county products for
the 3rd annual Northern Montana
Corn Show to be held at Wolf Point
November 1914. The movie shows
are being held in Is different farm
communities in the county and each
individual must bring his required
amount of farm produce to gain adj
mission. The products collected at
each show forms the basis for a ON
munity agricultural exhibit and the
best Of these products were assem-
bled for the county's exhibit at the
Northern Montana Corn Show.
Mr.. Lantz reports as unusual in
terest in the coming exhibit at Wolf
Point. In spite of the generally I'M
favorable conditions for corn grow
ing during the past season, an en-
couraging amount Of corn has been
collected in Northern Montana
corn that is mature and of good
quality.
Acclimation Important
1t is the opinion of the agent from
Phillips county that the show this
year should have an educational value
greater than usual in that it will
demonstrate most convincingly the
value of using acclimated seed, the
Importance of providing the best
possible growing conditions so that
will be rapid, and the need
for skill and careful attention to the
matter of selecting seed corn. Ac-
,ording to Mr.. Lantz, other shows
have demonstrated what Northern
Montana can do in the way of corn
under most favorable con-
the present show will dem
)nstrate what it can do under decid-
IDLY unfavorable conditions.
This will be the third consecutive
for the corn show in Northern
Montana, the first having been held
1t Malta in 1922, the second at Chi
hook last year. The selection of Wolf
Point follows out the custom de-
:ided upon at the beginning of hold
ng the show in a different place
ach year.
