Enough farmers were inter-
ested to test the idea. It
proved sound and successful.
Flocks soon dotted the valley,
and became the foundation of
a new and important industry.
But the benefits of that ex-
pertinent extended far beyond
the Red River Valley, for the
Great Northern's agricultural
department encouraged the
importation of lambs from
Montana, Idaho, Washington
and Oregon. Ranchers of
those states, in that way,
gained another important
market for their lambs.
The railroad too was the
gamer. For in helping to de-
stroy the weeds which were
strangling the crops, the rail-
road was protecting its traffic.

Breaking the Way

For many years Wheat was King in the rich Red
River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota.
Then growing pains began to develop. Grain
strangling weeds threatened King Wheat's domain
But already the agricultural representatives Of
the Great Northern Railway were in that region,
advocating diversified farming. For James j. HILL
busy pushing the railroad westward to the Pacific,
had created an Agricultural Development Depart
ment to help the farmers work out their numer
Gus problems
The railroads. agricultural agents reasoned that
if sheep turned into the weed threatened fields
the menace could be brought under control. Fat
tened woolies too, they figured, would provide the
farmers with more than just land crops to sell.

pertinent ended with the critic find
ing his original impressions were
the same as before. But, Saroyan
gained something by being COM
mentator upon his own show.
And, although his play may prove
to be q failure, he has this advan-
tage in his initial appearance as
a Broadway dramatist. He has
proved himself a playwright willing

ing, develop himself.
Clifford Odets, E. E. Cummings,
Eugene O'Neill, Elmer Rice and q
dozen other top rank playwrights
of the moment are dramatists who
started their careers with determi-
nation to make progress and not
to be afraid to defy convention and
the past policies Of dramatists.
They broke away from the accepted
types of plays, productions and star
dom, and while they went through
a difficult time Of it for awhile, all
of them came through with great
profit.
So. perhaps saroyan may achieve
the same thing in the theater world
that he has won in the magazine
world. His MY Hearts In the High
lands" definitely isn't hit, but it
has attracted so much both critical
praise and abuse that the young
man should learn something about
what he should do In making his

fired. he purchased a broken down
burlesque house In Haverhill, Mass,
renovated it and opened it with "The
Passion Play" in color film. From
that time he went on rapidly in
the fast-growing film business. First
he launched his own independent
company, presenting Anita Stewart
In series Of extravagant produc-
tions. In 1924 the merger which
created Metro Goldwyn Mayer
brought him into that company as
vice president and general manager.
In recent years, however, Mayer
appears to have become a mere
front man" for the studio. No longer
does he take hand in production.
He seldom reads a scenario, and
only on rare occasions does he deal
directly with star.
However, he does like to make
speeches and at every industry func-
ton one can safely gamble Mayer
will be on hand to dispense a few
well chosen words" Often his
emotions overcome him during these
oratorical sallies and he bursts into
tears, as he did several months
ago when extolling the Rev. Edward
Flanagan, head of the Omaha boys
town institution at an exploitation
luncheon preceding the pictures re-
lease. He has been known to weep
in order to get stubborn player
to sign up.
