MONTANA FARM WOMEN RECEIVE IN
STRUCTIoC60N KITCHEN IMPROVEMENT
The Fourth Annual Northern Montana Corn and
Pure Seed Show Will Be Held at Glasgow, Nov
ember 4-6.

Stebbins, county agent of Valley
county is secretary and manager Of
the show this year with the assist
ance Of extension agents in the other
counties included in the corn show
area.
The new sugar beet industry will
have place at the corn show this
year and the indications are that this
will be one of the largest classes of
the show The Utah-Idah Sugar Com
pany is offering number of prizes
in this class As a feature of the
pure seed exhibits n strong display
of Montana's Bliss Triumph seed
potatoes is being planned. The
strains of potatoes included in the
exhibit will represent seed which ex-
perts have declared to be the finest
in the United States.
Other pure seed exhibits will include
Hannchen barley, arctic sweet clover,
Grimm alfalfa, (around which great
industry is being developed in north
ern Montanz) and slender wheat
grass, in addition to a great number
Of varieties of pure seed corn. A
special pure seed education program
has been arranged and some of Mon
tana's leading seed authorities will
take part in this. The Boys Band of
Chinook has been secured to provide
music.
This is the fourth year of the
Northern Montana Corn Show and
evidence is accommodating as to the
strong part 1t is playing in agricul-
tural improvement in this part of the
state. At least one of northern Mon
tana's counties will go practically on
to a pure seed basis next year and
several other counties are rapidly ap-
| preaching that point. IT'S effect III
stimulating corn growing is indicated
by the fact that last year one north
ern Montana county produced as much
corn as did the whole state of Mon
tana in 1914.
The corn show is directed and man
aged by county extension agents in
northern Montana and is for educa.
tional purposes only. The show il
held at different place each year
1t started at Malta, then went to
Chinook and last year it was held at
Wolf Point. Plantywood and Havre
remain to complete the circuit.

formation received by the Beartooth
Boosters Club, from the Billings Com
mercial Club
Congress Ia urged to appropriate
money for immediate construction Of
the Red Lodge-Cooke City road thru

olution adopted Saturday noon by the
board of trustees of the Billings Com
mercial club. The resolution. present.
ed by r. G. Wiggenhorn, chairman Of
the special committee named to ad-
vance the Red Lodge Cooke City pro-
ject, declares that the road Ia an inn
perative necessity for development of
the mineral possibilities In and around
Cooke City and that funds reverting
bnck to the United States from fed
eral aid apportioned to the state are
available to the state for the reason
that they were not utilized.
Whereas. the proposed road from
Red Lodge to Cooke City has now
been surveyed as a forest highway
and IL is found to be feasible, and a
practical route has been determined
upon which can easily be built;

rounding Cooke City and as an outlet
therefor and said proposed road is the
best and most satisfactory route for

development Of the mineral resourc-
