RATING POINTS
TO EFFICIENCY
CHECKING AND CHARTING
FARM COMMUNITIES BY
NOVEL SYSTEM

That the Roosevelt county far
mers are fortunate in having a
yardstick by which to measure
their state of progress and def
mite progressive farming practices
that so affect earning power is in
dicated by statements of some of
the leading economists and agri-
cultural authorities in the country
after having thoroughly analyzed
such a system. DR.. w. H. Spill
man and M. L. Wilson, both con-
sidered leading authorities on ag-
ricultural economics, stated that
the rating system was being a very
practical step in progressive de-
velopment, the former stating that
it was one of the best agricultural
programs that he had ever seen
while Mr.. Merritt of the admin
strative course of the extension
department under C. w. Warbur-
ton stated that it should be fac
tor in making Roosevelt county ag-
riculture outstanding if farmers
would make practical use of this
system.
IA Communities
This together with the interest
created among PIT farmers in
fourteen communities of the coun-
ty was conclusive that the expert
ence data which has proved to be
the most profitable in affecting
farm incomes over a period of four
to nine years when corraled and
put into definite form is bound to
be the factor that is going to add
a great deal to successful devel-
opment in the county. Last week

Tom Alley was again the win

Liberty theatre, Wednesday night
His opponent was Gust Karras, 6
Greek wrestler of wide reputation
and one of the fastest workers and
most scientific men who ever ap-
lpeared on the mat here.
Karras took the first fall with
a Furnishing hold he terms the
"ankle twist" after 21 minutes.
Alley was not taking any chances
on a damaged leg and when Kar-
ras got the hold Tom promptly
conceded a fall.
Knocks Himself Out
After the usual 10 minute rest
the battle was on in earnest and
lasted 43 minutes before the next
intermission. The men we're at

men were on the mat, feet and

the body in an effort to
throw him backward. At the same
time the referee, Nels Moe, told

Of the mat. Karras gave mighty
tug but Tom held to the ropes
and Gusts hands slipped and he
fell flat on his back. Tom, find

with a delegation of citizens from
Montana and North Dakota, de-
clined to commit the road to any
program of construction affecting
the proposed New Rockford ex-
tension in the near future, or at
any other definite time.
The Montana-Dakota delegation
was told by Vice Presidents jerks,
Countryman and Martin of the
Great Northern that the railway
in the Northwest at the
time does not justify any
in new construction
and that there is not likely to be
any change in this regard until
conditions materially improve.
The officials expressed themselves
as pleased in that the people in
the affected territory were inter
ested in the project.
After the conference with the
vice presidents, the delegation
held a meeting and decided that
the organization formed at New
Rockford, N. D., last Monday
would continue its activities as it
was believed that eventually there
will be no need of its work.
The delegation which met with
the Great Northern vice presi-
tents was composed of II men
who were selected Monday at the
New Rockford meeting. They

,oad officials two hours. The dele
cation was composed by w. g.

The first few minutes Of play

the game turned out to be as it
was several minutes before both
teams were thoroughly warmed
into action. Then Wolf Point
started things by scoring. At
tention was turned from the ac-
tual playing during the first quar-
ter when it was necessary to call
a technical foul on the home team
because some person in the au-
dience had a whistle similar to the
referees which they blew fre-
quently and at the wrong inter
yals. During the game a number
Of personal fouls were called on
players on both sides.
