Teen miles out of Beaumont we
visited the farm of wealthy rice
miller and saw one of the revolu-
tionary machines stepping through
the tall grain while adnirlng spec
sators followed with their eyes.
Two tractors led the way through
the muddy ground in single file,
hauling the combine which was cut
Vlng and threshing the rice at the
rate OF 20 acres a day. -Four
teams took the grain to an artifi-
clal dryer that dried the rice bet

do IN two weeks.
Old Versus New Methods
HOW different the old fashioned
harvesting scene on the neighbor-
ing farm! Two weeks earlier a
binder had cut the grain and a
crew of 10 men had shocked it.
Now four teams were hauling it

educators as the best method of
establishing health habits in chill

after the crusades of old-the chill
dren progressing through the
grades of Squire and Knight into

awarded to schools which keep a
certain number of chores per child,
and the children are awarded pins
for faithfully performing their
health chores.
Miss Elizabeth Ireland, Superln-
tendent of Public instruction, has

health work in the schools.
The activities of the Montana

in the schools is a part of its
program for promoting better
health and the prevention of dis

FOREST FIRE TOLL
z MILLION DOLLARS

Spokane, Sept. 17.-Forest fires
in north Idaho and western Mon
tana destroyed merchantable and
reproductive timber worth approx
imately 100000 this season, the
United States forestry office has
estimated.
"It will take at least six months
to determine the fire loss," said
Jack Jost, assistant district for
ester for this area, who has flown
thousands of miles patrolling the
the fires.
"The loss of watersheds is al
most as important to us as the &C
tual timber loss, and when consid>
cred will greatly increase tht total
loss. The heaviest loss will be in
the white and yellow pine areas,
with cedar, spruce, fir and hemlock
running in thtir respective posi-
lions. The forest patrol is schedul>
ed to stop here Sept. 10, but we
will continue patrolling the dis
trict until the fires are out"
Watersheds are groups of heavy
timber, which hold snow in the
mountains until late spring and
early summer, thereby providing
water for irrigation.

ROOSEVELT LEADS.
Pixies PEAK RACE IN.
CARS UNDER $1,000.

The superiority of eight cylinder
performance again was demon
strated in the annual Pixies Peak
Hill climb on Labor Day when
Marmon-built Roosevelt straight
eight won the first prizes in the
light stock car class. This class is
open to all cars with factory
price of less than $1,000.
Entered Independent of factory
cooperation by the Marmon deal
er in Colorado Springs, the Roose-
welt was driven by William P.
Bentrup, Marmon Roosevelt SER
vice manager in Colorado Springs,
veteran mountain driver and win
ner of the Pixies Peak event in
1927.
The time made by the Roosevelt
over the 12-mile race course was
26 minutes, 562 seconds. Those
familiar with the course and its
many hazards say that the average
motorist requires approximately
one hour to drive to the summit,
since the road rises from 9,15O
feet above sea level at the official
starting point to 14,109 feet at the
finish.
The race is held under the sup
ervisiOn of the American Automo-
bile Association, and the stock car
entries are inspected by the orga-
nization- before the start of the
event.

LAMBS FLEECED OF
One BILLION S BY
WALL STREET GYPS

New York, Sept. 18.-Upward of
one billion dollars in quoted values
was washed away in sudden
flood of selling which swept over
the New York stock exchange sew
eral days ago. The reaction, which
came with startling suddeness af-
ter pools had succeeded in mark
ing up scores of issues So to $14
a share, many of them to new
high records, was the worst since
the break which followed the rails
ing of the New York federal re-
serve rediscount rate from 5 to 6
per cent a month ago. Net declines
in many active stocks ranged from
So to S18.75 a share.
Wall street was inclined to lay
the blame on publication of a
statement by Roger Babson, well
known economist, that a break in
stock prices rivaling the Florida
land boom was imminent.
1t appears that Mr.. Babson, who
has a profitable sideline advising
people how to invest their money,
plunged in Florida real estate and
lost a neat sum. Roger was kidded
by an expert.

chief executive, according to the
latest story around Washington.
There is one law should like

piled, "but | could get the word to

NOTED U. S. EDITOR
FOR RECOGNITION
OF SOVIET RUSSIA

Berlin, Sept. - Any American
who travels in the lands of the
Soviets is confronted not only with
the difficulty of the language but
In most cases by the absence of
any historical, Oswald Garrison
Willard, editor of The Nation, New
York, declared in an interview to
American correspondents here re-
Gently.
Most Americans are inclined to
think of the cars Russia as a
civilized capitalist rule comparable
to present day American condi-
tions. Few recall the terrible in
dictment drawn by an American,
George KEENAN,, in the early
eighties, in which were set forth
the inhuman horrors inflicted in
Russia, especially Siberia, upon all
Russians who dared to agitate for
democracy.
There can be no doubt as to the
ability, the zeal and the industry
of the men who constitute the
present government of Russia.
Able and Polished.
Those whom we met impressed
us all by their ability, their polish,
their vigor, and their knowledge
of what is going on outside of
Russia. They have a very clear
vision of what they wish to achieve
and how they propose to accom-
plish it, and very great confidence
in their ability to do their job
well. They have a tremendously
ambitious plan for the rehabilita-
ton and industrial development of
their country and if they are open
to criticism about it, it is because
they seem to be going too fast and
to be building far ahead of their
needs.
To this they reply that is not
the case, that they must make the
most far-reaching plans because Of
the rapid growth of their popula-
ton and the steady drift from the
farms to the cities. We were un,
fortunately not able to go into the
farm problems and did not go into
a single village or see a govern
ment farm. This was not because
of any unwillingness on the par
of the Soviet authorities, but simp
" because our schedule called pri
marily for a study of industrial
conditions.
American leaders of Russian
news must not forget that any gov
eminent which took charge o
Russia would have to follow in tn,
footsteps of the bolshevists in mod
ernizing the industry of Russia TO
that was at least rs years behint
the times when war broke out il
1914.
AS to Recognition.
The fact ought to be taken int
consideration in considering thu
question of American recognition
of the bolshevist government. L
that is not to take place becaus,
the communists are in charge thel
there will be no recognition 70,
many, many years. The only al
tentative to the Soviet government
is anarchy and perhaps the break
. ing up of Russia into many states
There is not now, repeat, tn
J slightest chance of this taking
place.

MANGANESE Dis
COVERED In SOUTH
DAKOTA HILLS
( From Chamberlain Register,

NJ 1F rom chamberlain Register)
The men who discovered The
South Dakota manganese were
looking for something else The
story is told that they went 30
Tacoma to investigate power nos.
Slollltles In the Missouri river The
Big Bend of the Missouri has Iono
been In the public eye as contain
ing development possibilities
Ihe two men who are credited
with the discovery, John Absher of
Detroit and the other a South Da-
hotan, Albert Amundson of Lake
Andes, climbed to the summit of
the barren hills to view the nos
slole site for industrial develon-
ment should they find way to
develop the river power.
They spent hours on the promon-
tory discussing their dream. Then
came the turning point. AS it was
time to go the Detroit man picked
up one OF the pieces of oxidized
rock which crop out in the seem
lngly worthless territory and ask
ed What the h is this stuff"
The South Dakotan could NOT an
swer, as possibly thousands of 9th
ers who had climbed the Gill could
not. The Detroit man, however.
was curious, so he picked UP a rock
and brought it back with him TO
his home city.
In Detroit he was acquainted
with metallurgist for Dodge
Bros, and he persuaded this man
to make an analysis for him in his
spare time after working hours.
This the metallurgist did and came
back saying the rock was rich in
manganese, an indispensable min
eral used in the manufacture of
steel. If deposits could be found
it would be worth a fortune he
said.
With that lead the power pro-
Ject on the Missouri took a new
departure. Other Detroit men with
some means at their disposal be-
came interested and it was deter
mined to find cut just how much
of this black stuff there was out
in South Dakota.
Then came a test at the Univer-
sity of Minnesota, where it was
shown that the rock contained 18.43
per cent manganese.
Next in order was to find out
how extensive the deposits were.
For this purpose, with added fin
ancial backing, the sponsors en-
plOyed John A. Savage, well
known Duluth engineer, for pit
tests. After nine months work Mr..
Savage made a report declaring
there is available so million tons
of surface ore, to say nothing of
the millions addition which may be
had by strip mining.
For a long time during the tests
the entire proceedings were a mys-
terry. However, it is now announc-
ed that manganese is the valuable
resource of this district. The Gen
eral Manganese corporation has
formed for the purpose of turning
the once mysterious black rock in
to cash.
Officers of the corporation are
all men who became interested in
the early stages. The president is
Karl M. Leute, Detroit, the vice
president, is William S. Jenkins,
Jr., Minneapolis and the secretary
and treasurer is Norton J. Miller,
Detroit, assistant treasurer of the
Detroit Securities Trust company.
