Why Farm Boys
Should Go to College

Success in any branch of agricul-
tural work is becoming more and
more dependent upon a thorough
knowledge Of the industry. No in
dustry requires more exact knowledge
covering a wider field of experience
md training than does agriculture.
It is the energetic young mar who
combine educational training with
aractical experience that will be the
;uccessful farmers and agricultural
leaders of tomorrow.
Trained men are needed on the
arm and to fill the hundreds of i'm
)ortant jobs associated with agri-
ulture. 1t is for these reasons, that
Montana State College offers a num-
Der Of short courses for the benefit
f the young men from the farm.
The courses offered are highly prac-
ical, cover a period of II weeks and
IRE given at a time of the year when
work is least pressing. Courses Of
erred for study are so arranged so as
o best fit students for the particular
ype of agricultural work they may
wish to follow.
Following are few of the subjects:
/. To train young men to become

zens.
2. To teach the scientific facts that
IRE the basis of agricultural prac-
tice.
3. To give a thorough and practical
raining in the various lines of agrl-
culture.
a. To train men for special lines of
agricultural work, such as farm
managers, tractor men, creamery
nen, elevator operators, COW testers,
md others.
5. To develop men for various
Aighly specialized types of farming
such as pure seed growers, breeders
# pure bred livestock, n%urserymen
and others.

any one of which may be taken dur
ing the twelve-weeks Short course
period. These courses are:
Creamery Course.
Diversified Farming.
Livestock Production
Tractor Grain Farming
Wheat Marketing and Elevator
Management.
Elective work also is offered in
heekeeping, practical arithmetic, and
business English.
These courses which begin January
G and continue until March %, are
especially designed for young men
who are interested in some phase Of
agriculture but who for lack of time
II other reasons, cannot take the reg
Nlar four-year college course. Most
Of the men who have taken these
courses have returned to their own
farms and ranches to profit by this
training while others have found the
short courses a means towad remu-
nerative employment. Reliable young
men who have practical experience in
addition to the short course training
re in demand to fill responsible po-
-itions at good salaries.
The total, cost of taking a three
months course including board and
room. books, fees and railway fare
will vary from 500 to $145.
The young man who expects to fol-
low agriculture as their life's work
should avail themselves of the spen-
did opportunity offered them by
their State College at Bozeman.

cut for hay and there is some danger
in feeding when moldy.

also need alfalfa In the ration. If the
alfalfa Is fed In a rack placed some
distance from the place where the

WORLD NEWS IN THE
 HEADLINES OF BIG DAiLlES

One of the most developed phases o1 modern journalism caption writ ing demands specialists who possess a lnack for condensing ideas into sharp. meaty words.
 In the Headlines" Warner Bros. al talking Vitaphone picture Of news paper life, at the Bradley Theatre, gives an idea how important head lines are to present day journalism.
 The skill demanded in putting a biz story, that takes columns to re- late. into half dozen words of large type. is one of the interesting side lights of this ccmedy-drama of the fourth estate.

Railroad Bosses Lied at Hoover
Conference

During Hoovers conference with the rail-
road bosses, statements were issued to the CAPT
talist press about increased building projects
for the railroads. The Daily Worker pointed
out at the time that these were the flmsiest
fairy stories.
Railroad activity is dropping and the need
for equipment is less than ever before. Gre
cent car-loadings figures says a financial
writer in the New York Times (Dec. 10)
indicate that the gross and net receipts of the
railroads will decline in the last quarter Of
the year."
Railroad earnings have been dropping for
nearly the entire year. With need for freight
cars decreasing, the railroad bosses state
ments are not worth the paper they are written
on.

BUILD THE DAILY WORKER
INTO A MASS ORGAN

! renegades; the war danger; and the fight for
the defense of the Soviet Union, for the or
ganization of the unorganized workers; to
build mass Party and mass circulation for
the Daily Worker.
A special printing of this edition in the
Russian language will be sent to the workers
of the Soviet Union. This special printing
will contain all greetings and, among other
things congratulate the workers of the Soviet
Union upon the wonderful success of the Five
Year Plan.
3. Every city where we have Party men,
bership must arrange meeting or other affair
in celebration of the sixth anniversary of the
Daily Worker and send the proceeds to the
Daily Worker to help build it into mass
organ.
Revolutionary Competition.
Revolutionary competition as inaugurated be-
tween districts and the Party still is too gem
eral and abstract. Into these proletarian con-
tests there must be drawn, not only militant
workers, but as large a mass Of non-Party
workers possible. Revolutionary COMPETE
ton must constitute a new form of united front
tactics, actually proletarian, organized from
below. 1t must lead to the establishment of
new united front bodies, fighting for the econ
omic demands of the workers, fighting against
imperialist war, reforniisn, for the defense
of the Soviet Union.
In this light, it is not sufficient for district
to challenge district, section to compete with
section. The steel workers of Chicago must
challenge the steel workers Of Pittsburgh; the
miners of Illinois must challenge those of Ohio;
automobile workers of Detroit must challenge
those of another auto center, the stockyard
workers of Kansas City must challenge those
of Chicago; the transport workers of Phia-
delphia must challenge those of New York.
In this way we will establish and make Sc
cure our mass contacts and more firmly
tablish the leadership of the Party and the in
fluence of the Daily Worker.
In conclusion we must reiterate-recruit for
the Party, build the Daily Worker, but upon
the basis of the everyday demands of the work
ers, by participation in their struggles-Gas-
tonia, Illinois miners capitalist terror and per-
secution. The workers are ready for struggle.
Reach them, give leadership. Win them for
our campaign and slogans. This is hoiw to
build the Party and the Daily Worker into
our campaign and slogans. This is how to
multiply our shop nuclei, shop papers, strength
en- our fractions, and our Negro, youth, wo-
mems and Pioneer work, help organize the
TU.U.L.
Speed the day when the Party will influence
and direct decisive sections of the unskilled and
semi-skilled workers in the basic industries,
the day of general and political strikes, the
day of the revolution.

Elect Your Daily Worker Representatives.

Elect Your Daily Worker Representatives.
DAILY WORKER district representatives
must fulfill two functions until such time
when, in the larger cities, these tasks can be
divided between two comrades. They must
keep the Daily Worker informed of the con-
dition of the workers in the industries, the I'M
employment situation, strikes etc. And they
must efficiently plan the work of building
mass circulation.
1. We must categorically insist that Daily
Worker district representatives be elected i'm
mediately in every district. Representing the
Daily Worker in district is a major political
task. District representatives who have been
proven incapable or who can not give all their
time to this work must be replaced by capable
comrades, selected from among the leading and
authoritative comrades in the district
2. At all unit and section meetings, called
to consider and organize the Party Recruiting
and Daily Worker Building Drive, unit and
secaion Daily Worker representatives must be
elected from among the most capable comrades
Present. In every smaller city where the
Party has membership, a Daily Worker rep
resentative for the city must be named.
8. There is tendency to look upon the
Daily Worker as an eXtraneous adjunct The
Daily Worker is part and parcel of the Party,
participates III every phase Oh anu WOTh-
ing class life. The Daily Worker representa-
tives must demand that the Party official
organ be placed upon the agenda of every
unit, section and district meeting; that the
Daily Worker remains in the forefront of this
Party Recruiting campaign.
4. Meeting of Daily Worker representa-
tives shall be called for the purpose of plan
ming and broadening the campaign for 5000
new readers. Meetings of Daily Worker read
ers must be held to enlist their support of the
campaign. Daily Worker supporting groups
DAILY Worker Builders; Daily Worker Read
ers Circles) shall be organized, to which work
ers out of the industries engaged in strug-
gle, must be invited. The purpose of such
groups shall be to increase the influence of
the Daily Worker and broaden its circulation.
Sixth Anniversary Edition.
l. The Sixth Anniversary Edition Of the
Daily Worker will be issued in January. Ar
ticles having application to the industries and
workers in your district can be inserted. 1t
will be a splendid issue for mass circulation
among the workers in the heavy industries
2. In this special issue all comrades, SYM
pathizers, Party subdivisions, Party papers,
militant unions, sympathetic organizations,
must greet the Daily Worker upon the pro-
letarian tasks accomplished and the tasks we
are now engaged in, namely, the fight against
speed-up, wage cuts, unemployment, social re-
formism and fascism, the right danger and the
