WHEN TRYING TO PICK UP
ANOTHER CAR

A man giving his name as Wal
ter Dahlkoeter was arrested here
Monday and charged with dis
turbing the peace, when he at
tempted to drive off in the car be-
longing to Ed Abrahamson. When

He drove here in coupe with a

take of getting into the Abraham

putty county attorney, he said that
he had had the car about four
months and that he had bought it
of E. G. Stanton of Pilger, Neb.
He said that his father was Ezra
Dahlkoetter of Twin Falls, Idaho.
Registration papers showed that
the car in his possession had been
registered by Walter Dahlkoetter

newal registration. In transferring
the papers to Frombey, the young

P. E. Penner is feeling justly
elated over the splendid wheat
crop which he has just completed
harvesting. Last spring he
bought section of land two miles
north of the Macon elevator for
S4 an acre. He put $50 acres in
wheat and got a yield of 6370

bined. paying $500 for the field,
or a trifle less than eight cents a

parts of the field yielded at the
rate of As bushels to the acre, but

POOL MEMBERS HOLD MEETING
WANT FINAL GRAIN PAYMENT
Farmers Informed on Status of Last Years Wheat
Shipments Man Explains Pool Methods
Lengthy Letter From President Read to Assembly

The meeting of wheat pool
urday evening was attended by
about rs, most of them farmers
and pool members, although bus
mess people were extended an in
vitation to be present also. N. j.
Demaree of Des Lacs, ~ Oak. a
field man, was the principal
speaker of the evening. He was
introduced by Geo. T. Murray a
field man who has been working
out through the territory sur
rounding Wolf Point for the last
two seasons.
Mr.. Demaree said that the far
mers of today are in the same eco
nomic position as skilled labor
was 35 years ago.
Production costs on the modern
farm are low, he said, but just as
long as the farmer must ask
"What'll you give me for my prod
uct?", just so long will farming
be a precarious occupation by
which to make a living AS soon
as the farmer is able to control
the output plus a slight margin
of profit, he will have his foot on
the first rung of the ladder lead
ing to ultimate independence.
Demaree pointed out that, de-
spite the fact that the United
States and Canada had bumper
crops this year, there was a large
shortage in the world crop. But
whether there is a world shortage
or not, he said, the hard high pro-
tein wheat of North Dakota and
Montana does not have to compete
in price with wheat of the other
countries since not pound OF II
is ever exported The bulk OF
the high protein wheat is raised
in these two states and the supply
of this quality wheat has never
equalled the demand.

will eventually enable wheat /
growers to get what this choice

Famous Old Saddle

Martin Mitchell last week came
into possession of an old army
saddle which may have been used
by Custer in his last battle. For
many years it lay in the tepee of
an old Indian in Canada. This
Indian claimed that he had taken
it from the Custer battle-ground
and that it had belonged to Gus
ter himself Whatever the truth
of this claim it was many years a
treasured souvenir of the battle.
Then the old Indian died and the
saddle fell into possession of
others. and finally Mr. Mitchell
bought it.

Siren To Blow
Daily At Noon

Beginning Monday the fire siren
will sound promptly at noon every
day. Wolf Point has had so few
fires during the last year that the
fire whistle hasn't had a chance
to keep it's voice in trim. The
method of testing the siren at ir-
regular intervals leads to confus-
ion as pepole think there is a fire
when there is not. So from Mon
day on the siren will do it's daily
screech promptly at noon.
