The YANKEE CLIPPER
HAS HISTORIC VALUE

There have been few periods in
the history of the United States as
glamorous as that which provides
the scene for Cecil B .DeMille's
superb picture, "The Yankee Clip
per-" produced under the super
vision of c.. Gardner Sullivan. 1t
will be presented at the Liberty
theatre on Thursday, Friday and
f, Saturday, with matinee Thursday
I at 8 p. m.
This picture records the period
when American clipper ships were
the fastest vessels afloat. They
carried the manufacturers of the
United States to many foreign
lands and set records for speed
never equaled by other sailing yes
sells. With their enormous IAN
vas spread, they were beautiful
ships and they placed the Ameri-
can merchant marine in the fore
front of the commerce of the
world.
In addition to bringing back
this romantic age, "The Yankee
Clipper will prove valuable as an
historical document. The result
of months of research and pain
stalking production so that every
detail might be authentic, the pic
ture will show what the clipper
period meant to Americas growth.
This opinion is shared by Rep
resentative Sol Bloom, of New
York, who recently recommended
to President Coolidge that a mo-
ton picture be made of the Cons
titution of the United States as a
means of fostering American pat
riotism Speaking of "The Yankee
Clipper, he said:
"Mr. DeMille deserves great
credit for producing this picture.
It will be invaluable to future gen.
erations. 1t depicts one of the
most glorious epochs in the his
tory of this country. The clipper
ship was distinctly an American
invention. And by using two gen
uine old clippers in this picture,
the Bohemia and the Indiana, Mr..
DeMille presents an authentic pic
ture of these crafts as they were
in the days of their marinetime
supremacy.
"We are a utilitarian nation and
it was only natural that, when the
steamship came along with her
great speed, the old clipper should
be showed into the discard. It is
somewhat of a pity, too, because
there is little romance in the 'ket-
ties and there certainly was
plenty in the sailing ships"

POULTRY FEEDING
CONTEST PLANNED

A contest in which Roosevelt
county poultrymen will have a
chance to work for a S25 prize in
which Vitamont meat meal is
furnished free-of-charge has been
announced by the Hansen Packing
company of Butte. The basis of
award will be on the average num-
Der of eggs per hen during the
three months of November, De-
cember and January.
AS the Hansen Packing comp
any is anxious to introduce their
Vitamont meat meal as a source
of animal protein for laying hens,
they are taking this means of get
ting Roosevelt county poultrymen
acquainted with their product
Rules governing the contest re-
quire that the flock include so or
more birds, that they be handled
by the county agent at the be-
ginning of the contest, that Vita
mont meat meal be used as the
only source of animal protein, and
each contestant send a report of
the amount of meat meal fed and
the amount and kinds of all other
feeds given as well as a complete
report of all eggs laid. The con-
test will start November LIST and
will continue until January 31st,
the award being made on the
basis of the average number of
eggs per hen during the three
months period.
AS it is necessary to order meat
meal from the Hansen Packing
company after entries are re-
ceived, any poultryman in Roose-
welt county who is interested in
this contest should make applica-
ton at once through the county
agent, stating how many birds will
be entered, the breed and the kind
of grains that will be fed in con-
nection with the Vitamont meat
meal. AS stated above, this con-
test is open to all poultrymen.
However, should too great a num-
Der make application, housing ia
~cilities and feeding practices will
be judged in selecting contestants.

BAINVILLE FARMERSCET
RECORD WHEAT PRICES

Hurley Mitchell, a farmer west
of Bainville, set a new record for
high priced wheat from this sec
ton this year when he sold a
car in Minneapolis for $1.74
bushel, or Z cents more than the
next highest car, which was ship
ped by Nelson Bros, also of Balm
vile, and which sold for $1.64A
a bushel. The third best a also
comes from the Hurley Mitchell
farm and sold for S1.67. All this
wheat was raised on summer fall

WHY PURE SEED Shows?
lGraat Falls Trihunel

The Northern Montana Corn and
Pure Seed show which will be
be held in Plentywood next week
is more than a "show." It's real
significance would be better I'M
derstood if it we're called a short
course in grain farming. There
are many, no doubt, who attend
it out of curiosity, but it justifies
its existince because it is an edu-
cationaI enterprise of far-reaching
influence.
Seven counties-Hill, Blaine,
Phillips. Roosevelt, Valley, Sheri-
dan and Daniels-will be repre-
scented on the display racks. The
attendance probably will be great
er from Sheridan than from any
of the other counties because OF
accessibility, but there will be
representative farmers from the
other sections, too. They attend,
not to be entertained, but to be
instructed, and they get what
they go after.
The Northern Montana Corn and
Pure Seed show was started sew
eral years ago to arouse interest
in corn culture. Our dry years
had shown us that when wheat
is a failure, corn is a uccess But
the wisdom of emphasizing corn
to the exclusion of other grains
was doubted. and efforts we're
made to get exhibits of the var
ious varieties of wheat, alfalfa,
rye. barley and oats grown in the
northern empire. Farmers re-
sponded for the very good rea-
son that they were taking a great
er interest in quality than ever
before. The fact that pure seed
not only meant higher yields but
a higher price per bushel set a
lot of men to working harder TO
grow pure seed.
Now. pure seed of itself is no
more attractive to the unframed
eve than ordinary seed, so 1t pos
sesses none of the spectacular
features which go to make a snow
Rut to the man who is interested
in pure seed. and therefore has
an eve for things Unseen by
it is an attraction as great
a thoroughbred horse is to a
breeder of high grade animals.
So it has come about that thls
particular seed show draws good
crowds. Many of course are tolKs
who are still skeptical OF the val
ne of pure seed, or at least are
persons who have not been con
WINGED that pure seed is a practl-
cal venture. But the greater part
are men who are actively engaged
in developing pure varieties ana
in keeping close check on their
operations. They go to the show
TO tell others of their experiences
and to learn what the others know
that they have not yet come TO
know. Out OF TINS COMES pio
gress.
Each e the show is held IN
a different county. In this way
if is made more accessible to a
larger number of farmers. And
records reveal that the year fol
lowing the show, the county which
has been host takes a stride o +
ward in better grain culture.
Montana has much to be proud
of. and not the least of the things
to which we can point with pride
is the Northern Montana Corn and
Pure Seed show, which has en-
couraged better quality in grain
crops. The difference in price be-
tween ordinary grain and high
grade grain goes a long way to
pay Montana's freight bill.

A news story sent from Plenty
wood concerning the Froid bank
robbery says many believe the act
was committed by the same part
les who cleaned up the Sheridan
county treasury last fall. If the
theory is correct, the officers
should know right where to look
for the guilty parties.

Montana Division Breaks
Outgoing Freight Record

Montana's 1927 wheat crop is making it's bigness felt in
numerous ways and should make the Treasure State a white
spot on Babson's business map for some time.
Moving the crop to the terminal markets is the herculean
task that falls to the railroads, with the Great Northern getting
the lions share, since its lines penetrate the heart of Americas
Spring wheat belt.
For the "a hours ending at midnight, October 10, 1927 the
Great Northern broke its own 24hour record, for east bound
freight hauled across the state line off the Montana division
with a total of 932 cars.
The traffic for the "a hours ending at midnight October 20.
1921, smashed the record of the week before by a wide margin
with a total of 1927 cars pulled into WiIiston.
Wheat shipments out of Wolf Point this fall total close to
100000 bushels or approximately 4O cars.

To Gain Results
Study Your Wood
BY SOL METZGER.

The average golfer, looking over
: his three wood clubs-driver, bras
sic and spoon--has a general idea
when and where to use each. At
the same time it might be well to
consider these three clubs from a
somewhat technical standpoint.
The driver is used from the tee
and the ball is teed up for it. You
can't hit any harder with it than
with the brassie or spoon, but you
can get greater distances. The
reason is that the face Of the
driver, if it makes contact with
the ball. has less slope than the
other two.
Tommy Armour's driver slopes
50 degrees. Consequently, when 1t
makes contact it sends the ball off
the tee at a lower angle than
would brassie or spoon. Further.
more. such ball has more over
spin to it because contact with the
ball is made just below it's center.
A spoon is sloped at Is degrees,
hence its contact with the ball is
much farther below the balls CEN
ter. Result is more elevation and
far less run than is the case when
the ball is hit with the driver. The
brassie, is the halfway wood club,
its slope being so degrees. You can
pick up the ball on the fairway
cleaner with the spoon than with a
driver, but if the lie is good you
use a brassie because you get a
bit more distance than with the
spoon.
Figure it out for yourself from
the drawings above and you will
have a better idea Of what club to
use when a wood is permissible.

GODFREY AND MUM
TO BATTLE TONIGHT

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, September 14.-In a
heavyweight battle which has been
regarded by some as likely to de-
termine logical contender. George
Godfrey. Philadelphia giant negro,
will oppose Monte Mum Of Lincoln,
Neb., over the 12-round route at Eb-
bets Field tonight.
Godfrey arrived in New York yes
terday from San Francisco after four
days on the train. He rigged up his
gymnasium equipment in a baggage
car en- route. boxed daily with a
sparring partner, and stepped six
rounds with two trainers shortly
after his arrival. He weighed 227
pounds, the same as he scaled at
the time he knocked out Jimmy Ma
loney of Boston.
Mum is one of the few fighters
who have been willing to meet God
frey, whose position in the heavy
weight ranks is somewhat similar to
that of Harry Wills when the Brown
Panther" was in his prime. Mum
is under the management of Dan
Hickey, who coached Paul Berlen-
bach from an amateur wrestler to
tie light heavyweight title.
Mum, who forsook the gridiron
and Legislature for the ring, weighs
215
