K|WAM|ANS ARE GIVEN
'AUCT|ONEER|NG ETUOE

Parish hall rang with the cal
for the bid when w. H. Hagen
demonstrated the ancient profess
sion of the auctioneer before the
Laurel Kiwanis club Wednesday.
Hagen told the club something of
the history of auctioneering and
OF the techniques now used in the
training of a~uctioneers.
Auctioneering, he stated, is one
of the oldest professions in the
world, the term itself being Of
ancient Greek origin. There de-
veloped during the time of the
Roman Empire, he said, the GUS
tom of using strips of red cloth
tied on a spear stuck in the
ground to mark the route to any
place where an auction was to
be held. This custom survives
today, though mere sticks are
used to replace the original spears.
Livestock, said Hagen, consti-
tutes the largest single class of
goods sold at auction in Montana
today, and is one of the very few
forms of merchandising under
goods of considerable vaiue
are exchanged on the basis of
contract alone. He then
demonstrated the fast delivery an
auctioneer can use when he is SELL
ing to, a group of trained buyers
such as are found in cattle rings
and tobacco warehouses.
Preceding Hagen's address, Wes-
ley Henley gave a short talk on
Boys State. Henley was sponsor
ed at the Boys State assembly
by the Laurel Kiwanis club.
Jim Whitson, manager of the
branch of Vaughn and
Ragsdale, announced to the club
that he has 125 tickets good for
one admittance each to the Tues
day afternoon performance Of
the Passion play. These tickets,
he said, will be given to the first
1875 students up through seniors
in high school who call and ask
for them.
Guest at the meeting was DON

WORK Of RED LODGE
IS TOLD BY HOSTESS

people from all over the world
stop at Red Lodge" stated Mrs
E. G. Hickok, hostess at the Car
bon county city's tourist informa-
ton bureau, when she addressed
the Laurel Rotary club Tuesday.
Mrs. Hickok told the Rotarians Of
visits she has had with tourists
from India, all parts of Europe.
the Hawaiian islands and both
Americas. She cited the varied
reactions of people to the Red
Lodge-Cooke City drive. Some de-
scribe the drive as more beautiful
than anything in the Swiss Alps,
others are so frightened by it
that they turn back before they
get more than a few miles from
Red Lodge.
Mrs. Hickok also recounted some
of the history Of the information
bureau in Red Lodge. The office
was opened on a part-time basis
four years ago, but for the past
three years has been operating on
a 13-hour, seven-day schedule.
Though 2,558 tourists stopped at
the information bureau in July
this year, she estimated that this
number represents only a third of
the total number of tourists pas
sing through Red Lodge during
that period.
Her office, said Mrs. Hicok, is
attempting to increase the per-
centage of tourists using the ia
%cilities offered by the bureau.
Many of the people going to yell
lowstone park by way of Red
Lodge and Cooke City do not re-
alize that anything of interest lies
between them and the park and
consequently are not prepared to
fully appreciate the drive.
Her work on behalf of the Red
Chamber of Commerce
parallels to quite an extent that

SPECTACULAR BLAZE
DESTROYS WAREHOUSE

The Baker Transfer G. Storage
Co., warehouse in Billings was
completely destroyed Tuesday aft.
ernoon by fire. The blaze origin.
ated under the loading platform
when several small boys touched
a match to some straw. The
towering pillar of smoke could be
seen by residents of many of the
towns in the region.
The boys, whose ages range
from 6 to 10, used the space be-
meath the platform as a hideout.
Police and fire chiefs questioned
the children, who were then re-
leased to their parents.
All available fire equipment and
men wer used to combat the fire.
The flames, famed by a light
easterly breeze, quickly engulfed
the entire structure. Black, bill
smoke from oil stored on
the bottom floor hindered the fire
men for some time.
Officials of the company esti-
mated the damage in the vicinity
of $500,000. Among the losses
was equipment for the new tele-
phone exchange. 1t will cause a
delay in completion of the service
in Billings.

DROUGHT DELAYS
WHEAT SEEDING
Sugar Beets Continue Good
Beans Hurt By Blight
But Are Fair To Good

Conditions r too dry through
out most of the state for seeding
winter wheat. Many farmers viii!
delay the operation while wait
ing for rain and a lessenlng of the
grasshopper threat, but some who
are fortunately located and who
have adequate soil moisture will
begin seeding during the present
week. Most of the summer fall
lowed land will be sown; the use
Of other lands which have been
continuously cropped for several
years will be sharply reduced.
The winter wheat harvest has
ended except in the high areas
where the season is always later.
The harvesting of spring wheat
lags behind the winter variety
about a week.
Most of the wild hay crop has
been put up; the second cutting
of alfalfa is completed. Where
the soil is good and irrigation
water has been applied freely,
there are prospects for a third
alfalfa cutting.
Sugar beets continue to look
promising in the counties custom
arily gowing them, though the
acreage has shrunken in extent
from former years. Average to
heavy yields are expected.
The bean crop has been hurt
by blight, but fair to good yields
per acre are in prospect. Some OF
the early fields nave been pulled.
Grasshoppers are still reported
as menacing in a large part of
the eastern third and northern sec.
ton of the state. Severe losses
of winter wheat seedlings are ex-
in districts where the in
festations are heavy.
The marketing of cattle contin-
ues to be earlier and in greater
numbers than a year ago. The
is generally good, but
many of the animals are carrying
less weight than normally. Hay
and forage prices continue to
climb in several of the counties.

OUTLOOK SPORTS EDITOR
IS NAMED TO EXPEDITION

Information has been received
here from leaders of the Smith
Hunt scientific foundation that
Bill Mize, sports editor of the
Laurel Outlook, has been chosen
as junior assistant geologist on a
prospective trip into the wilder
ness area of the Superstition
mountains of Arizona. The pur-
pose of the trip has been out
lined as both practical and scien-
tific. Prominent members of the
party will be doctors from several
large eastern universities and min
eralogists from the school OF
Mines.
The expedition will leave Tue
son, Ariz., o after Oct. Is and
will be gone about three months,
expecting to return to the Arizona
city during the forepart of jan
usry. Bill will act as official re-
corder and journalist of the geo.
logical section of the party. He
will assist in packing the party's
supplies.
The mountain range, situated in
e~ast-central Arizona, is one of the
few primitive areas left in the
United States. The Indians regard
it as the dwelling place of evil
spirits, and from this many
legends have come forth. This
area is expected to yield some val
liable data on early American civ
ilizations and possible deposits Of
atomic ores.
