of all sh~elterbelts. Other varieties
that do we'll in this section are: Green
ash, native elm, bull pine, Colorado
blue spruce, Black Hill spruce, North
west poplar, box elder and Scotch
pine. Jack pine is recommended for
sandy soil.
A. We recommend that the rows be
planted from twelve to twenty feet
apart. This is to be determined by
tillage tools or location. Trees should
be planted three feet apart in the
row, provided that every other tree
will be removed when they become
too crowded. Otherwise six feet
should be the distance between trees,
s. We recommend the following
fruit trees for this section; apples,

PRACTICES RECOMMENDED
FOR SHERIDAN COUNTY

A group of farmers interested in
the production of shelterbelts, fruit
trees and poultry met at the County
Oath for the purpose of discussing
successful practices that should be
followed in northeastern Montana for
the successful production Of the above
enterprises. Since the establishment
of the State Nursery at Missoula
there is a great deal of interest in
~shelterbelt planting on the farms in
Sheridan county and it was the OBJ
ject of the committee to draw up
resolutions to be followed in planting
Of sh~elterbelts and fruit trees for the
successful production. AS the situa-
ton now stands in the county many
shelterbelts have deteriorated because
of the methods by which they have
been planted, also the lack of care.
Other shelterbelts are offering the
maximum of protection for the farm
stead and are in excellent condition
to survive cold winters and dry sum-
mers. In other words they might
be what we would term a successful
shelterbelt planting. The farmers
! who produce such shelterbelts con
tributed freely with the information,
the way in which the shelterbelts
were planted and taken care of. At
| ter considerable discussion the foil
owing recommendations were made
which should be of benefit to those
who wish to plant shelterbelts and
fruit trees in the future.
Shelterbelt Recommendations
|. We as a committee hereby re-
commend that shelterbelts should b.
planted on the north and west sides
of the farmstead. Where shelterbelts
can be only planted on one side OF
the farmstead they should extend far
enough in each direction to avoid
winds from blowing around end Of
trees. Fruits should be planted or
the inside of the shelterbelt where
they win be protected from the driv-
ing winds.
2. We recommend that old grount
should be summer fa1lowed at least
one year before the trees are plant.
ed. New ground or breaking SHOULD
be fallowed two years before plant
ing.
3. Recommended varieties for shell.
terbelts: We hereby recommend that

 Attractions At Theatres
PAULINE FREDERICK IS
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

Mother love, a situation which for sheer concentrated drama is one of the greatest ever screened, the superb acting of Pauline Fred erick, and story that piles dra- matic Ossa on Pelion, plus some of the best comedy of the season. That, in brief, is the makeup of 'fHer Honor The Governor" star ring Miss Frederick, opening at the Coliseum tonight.
 The return to the screen after her triumphal tour of Australia, of this brilliant exponent of the histrionic profession is particular ly fortunate in that she has a role which gives her splendid powers full scope. Hyatt Daab and Weed Dickison wrote the story around the star, and they picked time ly as we'll as strong theme. Why this rich field has not been touch- cd before is hard to state, but it is beautifully tapped in the cur rent F. B. o. special, which Doris Anderson has transported to the Silver Sheet with delft touch and a woman's intuition.

will secretly reject the Soviet plan even if openly they only toy and spar with it.
 Finally, the advocates of the theory that disarmament should be allowed to settle itself by spon- taneous action from individual states point to the immense in fluence of the American outlawry of war pact There Is growing tendency to regard the Kellogg mutilated agreement. as the bigges. move for peace in years, and to compare it in importance to the creation of the League of Nations and to the Locarno pact which modelled the machinery for per manent peace on the Rhine.
 It is believed that the moral ef- feet of the Kellogg pact will be widespread and profound on the peoples of the world, increasing their sense of security and their conviction that the risk of war has, at the least, been considerab- ly reduced. No more war-7no more weapons, is the criptic slo. gan which echoes and re-echoes. And if this be true, say the adver- saries of 2 collective disarmament treaty, then nations will gradually disarm of their own will.
 But that does not imply that further attempts will be abandon ed. There are people here con- yinced that another meeting of the preparatory disarmament commis- sion is certainty, and that public opinion expressed through the League assembly will never per- init the League to drop disarma- ment

War Films Fail to Stir
 Martial Spirit in China

CANTON, July S1.-Thinking to arouse a martial spirit and boost the recruiting for the Ma tionalist campaign against Pe- King, the Canton Government several months ago asked the movie theatres to show more war pictures.
 "The Big Parade" and What Price Glory were exhibited to packed houses, but while the Ma tipnalist forces mean time gain ed the northern capital, recruit ing results from the idea proved disappointing. Glimpses of what modern war can be like furnish ed no prod to patriotism among a people naturally averse to fighting.
 Chinese armies are almost en- tirely recruited. from coolies who join up for food or loot or are caught and conscripted against their wills. Youths from families of standing or wealth simply are not interested in army life. The Chinese have widely current proverb which translated runs Good iron is not used for nails :: good men are not used for sol dicrs."
