weekly Meeting
Ballard Dunn, Managing Editor of
the Omaha Bee-News, Addresses
Gathering and Answers
Questions
TELLS NEWSPAPERS POLICY

The Ministers Alliance held its
regular meeting Monday morning in
the lecture room of Cleaves Temple
c. M. E. Church, Twenty-fifth and
Decatur streets, the Rev. John H.
Grant presiding. Much important
business was dispatched and live sub
jects discussed. Among the topics
presented was the question of secur-
ing appointment of teachers in our
public schools. This is to be the sub
ject to which the Alliance is to de-
vote it's entire session next Monday.
Mr.. Ballard Dunn, managing editor
of the Ombaha Bee-News, and Mr..
Allwine of the circulating depart
ment, were present. This was Mr..
Allwine's second visit, who upon a
former occasion had been asked some
questions concerning the editorial
policy of the Bee-News. This not be-
ing in his department, Mr.. Dunn ac-
cepted an invitation to address the
Alliance. He was we'll received and
frankly answered certain questions
asked. The questions elected the an
swer that it is contrary TO the ex-
pressed policy of the Bee-News to
permit the use of the word '.Negress," /"
a term complained of, in speaking of
women of our race; or to use the
word Negro" in the headlines in re-
porting crimes or alleged crimes; but
that sometimes these rules are vio-
lated by new men on the staff and
slip by th- editor. Mr.. Dunn said
that it was the policy of the Bee
News to permit nothing offensive to
any class of its readers, but to be
helpful to all and constructive and if
any violations of the rules of court
esy were called to his attention as
full amendment as possible would be
mede.
Mr.. Dunn's attention was court
eously called to the fact that occu-
pational opportunities for our edu-
Gated young men and women are lin
tied and was asked to see if some
opening on the reportorial staff could
not be made. He said he would take
this matter up and see what could be
done.

1.-The "Orphan Angel" by Elinor
Wylie is a new novel which lovers of
literature will enjoy. Elinor Wylie
is essentially a poet, and her beloved
Shelly is the hero of her story.
Shelly rescued near dead from drown

brig, and not unwillingly carried off
to America (for he suspected that
Mary no longer loved him); Shelley
with his hearty rescuer, Davie Butter
nut off for St. Louis where the vague
ideal of aim injured woman alone,
beautiful, in peril, captured his fancy
like an unwritten poem; Shelley drift

a philosopher and a mathematician;
Shelley lifting his fine head proudly
while the Indians prepared the tor
ture; Shelley loved by mountain naiv-
etc and by the desert passion Of
Anne, the adopted daughter of Ia
tribe; Shelley in California troubled
by the metaphysics of love and free
dom-what an opportunity for a poet

never the bourgeon) with that ease of

eighteenth century knew so we'll!

Turkey Mar
keting News

On October goth the directors of
the Sheridan, Daniels and Roosevelt
Turkey Growers Association met in
P~lentywood to outline plans for the
marketing of the 1928 turkey crop.
The associations of the three coun-
ties are now Incorporated as one con-
Germ and will be known as the Tri-
County Poultry Growers Association
and will handle the turkey crop for
the three counties.
Mr.. Carl Peterson was elected as
manager to fill the acanc left by
Mr.. Bolster who has left this section
of the state.
Plans were laid at the Saturday
meeting for handling a large volume
of turkeys this year. 1t is the plan
of the association to ship one car
over the Great Northern for the
Thanksgiving Market. In this way
the growers may market all their
turkeys that are heavy enough to
grade as number one for the early
market.
For the Christmas Market it is
the plans of the association to load
n car over the 500 Line so that the
growers in the northern part of the
county may have the privilege of
marketing their birds thru the as
ISOLATION. Two more cars will be
loaded over the Great Northern for
the Christmas season and in this
way there will be no need of the
growers shipping their light birds
for the Thanksgiving trade.
Many growers are of the opinion
that it costs a great deal to finish a
bird because of the large amount of
grain that the turkeys consume daily.
According to experiments that have
been conducted it only takes from
four to five pounds of wheat to pro-
duce a pound of gain on a turkey.
According to these figures, one bushel
of dollar wheat will net the turkey
grower $3.50 when marked thru a
turkey, if the turkey sold at 40c per
pound.
Let me emphazise the fact that a
grower loses big money when he sells
turkeys that are not heavy enough
to grade as number one birds.
Last year the association had a
very successful season in that there
were two car loads of turkeys market
ed thru the organization for the
Christmas market and the Sheridan
county association received the high
est price paid to any association in
the State of Montana for the entire
shipment.
Because of the road conditions last
year at the shipping season, many
growers who had their birds dressed
and ready to bring to the shipping
points found it impossible to make
the trip and had to sell their bird:
direct to the Commission Houses.
Therefore, the directors of the as
ISOLATION decided it would be advis.
able to ship a car over the 500 Line
the first stop being made at White.
tail and the last at Westby.
The exact dates have not been de.
cided upon as yet for the car thai
will be loaded before November 18Th
and the shipping points will b.
Scobey, P~lentywood, Medicine Lake
and Bainville.
Only those birds that are heav.
enough to grade as number one aftel
they are dressed should be shipped il
the first EAR. All birds sold through
the association this year will b
graded on the Montana STANDARD
which is IL pounds for number on
toms and 8 pounds for number on
hens

CoIoring of Bricks

Common bricks are red because
there is iron IN the clay. Ordinary
white bricks owe their color to lime.
Lime and iron make a cream-colored
brick. Brown bricks are due to the
presence of magnesia, and yellow
bricks to a combination OF magnesia
and iron.
