MANY ATTRACTIONS
WILL BE FOUND AT
G. G. H. S. CARNIVAL

The carnival to be given by the stu
dents of the Carbon County High
school on Friday evening, Nov. 2,
promises to be an elaborate affair.
Each class of the school is promis-
ing to produce the most sensational
show and all are working together on
the main attraction, vaudeville show,
which will be given in the assembly
room, starts at s o'clock. This show
will be open to all without any added
admission charge as the tickets sold
at the door for admission will be good
for this entertainment.
The side shows will be cents each,
and it will be worth while to take
plenty of nickels along, as there will
be plenty of attractions and some will
want to visit them several times dur
ing the evening. A freak animal
show, the great Hawaiian and Hula
dancing show, an unusual freak at
traction, the Katzenjammer home,
Mexican hairless dog, DR.. Hacken-
saws operating room and the fishing
pool, are few of the attractions to
be found on the midway.
Concessionaires will be found at
every convenient place throughout the
building and the promoters, the high
school students, promises to give
everyone fine entertainment. 1t will
be fun for all and the visitors will
have as much gaiety as the promoters.
The program for the vaudeville
show is as unusual as are the various
shows on the midway. The following
is the program:
"Me and Betty" q novelty.
The Toyland orchestra.
Al Jolson in his famous act, featur
ing "The Swamp Song"
The Kitchen orchestra.
Each class in the school has Sc
lected representative to enter the
Queen Contest" Kristi Kainu will
represent the freshman class, Lucille
EIicox the sophomore class, Leona
Hannula the junior class and Elizabeth
LdTklH IIle SellloI CldSS. llcheIS SOOu
for the contest will be used in voting
who is to be queen of the school and
at IL o'clock the contest will close and
the selection of the queen will be the
occasion for program to herald that
event.
Following this program cent
dance will be given and while this
will close the affair, one will find
many novelties in the way of amuse-
ment given all evening, in addition
to those named above. Admission to
the building will be Is cents for adults
and 10 cents for school children. The
public is invited and friends as we'll

DEMAND MADE TO
IMPROVE ROADS
IN OUR COUNTY
lContlnued from mage y

Belfry is practically all graveled and
this is true as to the highway from
Corbett to Cody, and points from
Cody on down into that state. There
is no gravel from Beaver, Wyo., north
and the Wyoming state highway has
signified an intention to do nothing
with this stretch of road until Mon
tana locates definite project leading
to the state line.
This is the time to act, and DR..
Siegfriedt says there is something
like S250,000 to 100000 Of federal
aid money that can be spent in Car
bon county and in having it used here
it will relieve the county commission
ers of the leading highways, so they
can expend the county money on con

tenance would not be confined to any
one section of the state?' he was
asked.
20. 5. Warden vigorously opposed
the plan throughout on the ground
that it unduly restricts the wishes of
the commission was his reply.
What position did Wellington D.
Rankin take during his term as attor-
ney general of Montana when hostile
legislature was endeavoring to abolish
the plan of state road building?n
Mr.. Rankin vigorously supported
the highway commission and was of
material aid in preventing the abolish
ment of the board, without which sup
port there would have been no com
mission, no initiative measure, and no
good roads program under which we
are operating today" replied Mr.
Holmes.
"Have the provisions of the law
providing for uniform construction
and maintenance in each district been
compiled with by the Erickson high
way commission?
"They have not. Completed con-
struction varies from AZ to 81 per cent
in different districts and maintenance
as provided by law has not been car
ried out
What position does Wellington d.
Rankin now take respecting the road
program?
81 have discussed the highway sit
uation thoroughly with Mr.. Rankin
and he heartily endorses and favors
honest compliance with provisions of
the good roads law as contemplated
in initiative No. 81. He will encour-
age and support in every way Wig
orous construction program and in
sist that the work shall be carried
forward in each district in proportion
to the unfinished mileage in each of
the II districts as provided by law"
answered Engineer Holmes.

Herbert Hoover does not believe
agriculture is in a satisfactory con-
dition. In fact, he feels that farmers
were not making money before the
war. He has stated that such gain as
came to farmers before the war was
due to the slow increase in the price
of land and not from the sale Of farm
products.
In hi speech of acceptance, Her

Hoover failing to keep every promise

SLOPE RAISES
FINEP0TAT0ES
Certified Seed Planted in
Spring Produces Quantity
and Quality =

That the Missouri Slope district
can raise the finest seed potatoes in
the country is indicated by the quail
ity and quantity of an experimental
crop raised in Burleigh county this
year by eight farmers, according to
A. r. Miesen, agricultural agent.
Two hundred bushels of certified
Triumphs were planted for the ex-
pertinent last spring.
L. j. Garske, farmer near Bis
marck, produced over 800 bushels to
the acre on q 15-acre plot, and all
other farmers in the scheme had
results equally as good.
The crop from the special plots
will be used for seed purposes only,
some being used here and other parts
being sent to southern states, Miesen
announced.
The farmers in the experiment fol-
low: L. J. Garske, John Schneider.
Wilbert Fields, Carl Schultz, Oswald
Oss, Julius Andahl and c. 0. Nelson,
ale Of Bismarck, and Erick Slovak,
Brittin.
The seed potatoes were purchased
from Frank Splonskowski, Braddock.
who has been raising this variety for
. number Of years with pronounced
success, according to Miesen.
THE Slope country is 1t the right
altitude for the growing Of this
variety" Miesen said. potatoes
raised here are remarkably free from
disease and for that reason are much
in demand by southern growers.
Hitherto the distance from the COM
mercial market has hindered the de-
velopment Of the potato-seed raising
in western North Dakota, and this
year the prices are discouraging,
but the day is coming when the Mis-
souri, Slope country will take its
place with the Red river valley in
the quality Of seed potatoes that can
be grown here.
Introduction Of the Triumph va
riety and its successful development
will mean the planting Of consider
able acreage. North Dakota and
Minnesota potatoes have a great
market in Texas and other states %
far north as Iowa, and it is this mar
ket for which the Triumphs will be
grown in the future"

Bismarck Power Plant EN-
ploye Instantly Electrocuted
as He Touches Wire

Andrew Carroll, %, employed by
the United Public Service company,
died almost instantly when he was
accidentally electrocuted here at
7:45 a. M. today.
A current of 10000 volts passed
through his body, according to ].
August Carlson, construction fore
man Of the company.
Belief Of fellow-workmen that
Carroll lived until he reached the
hospital was denied late this morn
ing by physicians who said that he
had apparently died within three
seconds after receiving the current.
Carroll was sitting on top of a
sub-station near the power plant
Of the company south Of the North
ern Pacific passenger depot, Carlson
said. He and two other workmen,
Ludwig OVERLY and Charles White,
were employed in repairing the
station.
Carroll apparently raised his
head, touching the high power line
carrying the 4O,OO0-volt current out
Of the city into neighboring districts.
The current passed through his
body.
OVERLY and White did not see
Carroll's plight, but the shock threw
him backward, though he did not fall
to the ground from the top of the
station. The two men found Car
roll unconscious in q prone position
and brought him to q local hospital
Immediately.
Carrolrs face and head were badly
burned.
Deceased came to Bismarck to
work for the company in April, 1928.
He formerly lived at Armstrong,
Iowa. A brother, Ralph. and other
relatives in Armstrong have been
informed of the death, and funeral
arrangements are being held up
pending further word from the
relatives.
