SURVEY SHOWS ACUTE
LACK OF SEED CORN

Montana farmers are facing an
other seed corn shortage and the
situation is becoming more and
more acute as seeding time ap-
proaches, advises A. J. Ogard, eX-
tension ~agronomist at Montana
State college.
A careful survey to determine
the amount and quality of seed
available indicates that there are
but one or two counties with sur
plus seed and that even many cas-
tern counties, which ordinarily
furnish the bulk of the seed corn
for the state, will have to import
some corn this spring.
While last year was a fairly
good corr year resulting in the
harvesting of an average crop,
much of the seed held over for
planting in 1928 is proving low in
termination. Several samples
brought to the county extension
office at Culbertson for test have
been found to have a termination
test of 25 per cent or below. This
condition makes it more necessary
than ever for farmers to test their
seed before planting.
Farmers needing seed should
lose no time in locating supplies
as the demand is likely to be
heavy as planting time approach
es, resulting in an advance in
price. The county extension Of
flee has endeavored to list avail
able supplies in Roosevelt county.
In selecting seed corn for plant
ing this spring, farmers are adj
vised to secure their seed from
local growers or from reliable
dealers who haudle strains and
varieties adapted to Montana.

thought comes to us once again
that the responsibility resting
upon the small town of the Amer
lean nation is a tremendous one.
We sometimes hear the remark
small town stuff" It is usually
made by some person who has
lived in the larger city long
enough to get a thin veneer of
metropolitan sophistication lead
ing them to affect a complete
despising of the intimate relation
ships of small town life. Usually
they are the only ones in a small
town who ire really guilty of
small town stuff" Looking over
the young people of Wolf Point
we cannot but realize that in
them we have a wealth of talent,
and a wonderful reserve of moral.
social, and spiritual worth. We
have produced them here in our
homes, our schools. and our
churches. In the realest sense of
the word they are small town
stuff" We shall send most of
them away to the colleges of our
land, and few of them will ever
come back to take up a permanent
residence with us. They will be
our contribution to the big cities
of America, and to the world at
large. Yes, it is very important
to be a citizen of the small tiwn.
Let's be proud of it.

WE are apt in this modern world
" to forget that in race and
~heredity. heritage and environ
ment, Jesus was a Jew.
The prophetic message of Old
Testament writings and times
found its highest expression in the
hope of a Messiah who should re-
deem Israel and bring to tri-
umphant expression in the King
dom of God on earth the plans
and purposes of God concerning
his people.
Dream of Dcliverer
In many minds at the time of
Christ's coming this hope had be-
come almost wholly materialized
in the dream of a deliverer who
should free Israel from the yoke
OF Rome. and establish an earthly
Kingdom in which Israel should
have a primary place among the
nations. II was the tdisappoint-
ment OF this hope that more than
anything else apparently led to
the reaction of hostility against
Jesus which ended in his death on
the this and the fact that
Jesus assumed 10 teach religion
upon his authority. a thing
tina the official guardians OF au-
thority have resented against the
free prophets II every age.
When he speaks in his own city
OF Nazareth and reads the Ian
guage of the Old Testament de-
scribing the mission OF the Mes
siah telling how he is to preach
the gospel to the poor. to set at
liberty the captive. to give sight to
the blind. etc. he rosses his own
townsmen to wrath as he says.
This day is this Scripture full
filled in your ears"

strange psychological hallucina-

them today, hundreds OF years
afterwards. What gave the claim

Accepting the Cross

1t was not easy even for our
Master TO accept The cross. He
would not have been truly human.
that is. there would have been no
real incarnation. II 1t had oeen
easy Jesus revealed the fullness
OF his humanity in the way III
which he prayed even to the very
last that the cup might pass. But
he revealed also the power Of his
divinity when despite his human
shrinking and weakness. he went
all the way in fulfilling the Will OF
God.
Hence he has become not the
Messiah OF a group or Of a race.
but the SAVIOR OF the world, a nan
of sorrows and acquainted with
grief. through his sorrows and
the revelation Of his love bringing

Pays0n To Teach
Course Of Flying
BY Rankin System

Important announcements IN con-
ncction with the promotion of aVia-
ton in Imperial Valley are made by
capt. S. L. Payson, Of the Payson
ElNing Service Of this city.
F&yson has contracted with the
Eanl;.l System Of NIying to teach
their method to those Interested.
Classes will be formed Immediately
and a free lecture on flying viii be
given by an expert Of the Rankin
System, who viii be in the city at
a date to be announced later.
The Rankin System was founded
by "TcX' Rankin, one of the best
known flyers in the country, and is
considered the best training for
flyers outside the army and navy
services. It consists Of 80 hours OF
ground instruction and 10 in the
air Thc system closely follows that
used by the government, except non
essentials in commercial flying, such
as gunucry, battle formation and
military tactics, are eliminated. Ran
kin System is used exclusively by
the Italian government in training
commercial flyers, and has also been
adopted by the state Of Michigan as
standard requirement for all civil
ian ayiators in the state.
"Our purpose is to teach those in
tcrcst"d, not only safe and depend
able flying methods, but. to acquaint
them fully with the proper care and
upllccp Of planes,' PaySon states.
"It is for this reason that SO much
time is devoted t. eroandWorli. Ran
kin believed that every flyer should
have complete mechanical know
ledge about his piagc, and has in
cornorat"d this principle into his
systcm."
Payson has 4 record of over 10
y2@rs Of flying, and was a naval in
structor during ihe World War. At
present i" has several pupils in the
