ANOTHER ELEVATOR
STEAL STOPPED BY
IRATE POOL MEMBER
Navajo Elevator Would Grab Entire)*
Roiling Stock of Great Northern to
Monopolize Wheat Shipping Bus
iness c-t Navajo.
A telephone call from Sven Myhre
at Navajo, to Manager Horgan of the
Farmers Wheat Shipping Association
of Scobey revealed another fact which
throws a little more light on the sys
tem of wheat marketing foisted on the
farmers by the Chamber of Commerce,
Myhre, a farmer of the Navajo
district who belongs to the Montana
Grain Growers and who wanted to
ship a car of wheat direct to the pool,
ordered a car for the purpose. Five
empties were put on the siding at
Navajo and when Myhre went to
cooper his car he found that the ele
vator man had coopered four of them
and put a padlock on thç Other çnç,
. Knowing that the farmers were
bsed to being easily subdued, the ele
vator man supposed that he could
force Mr. Myhre to ship his wheat
through his elevator. But Mvhre had
decided that he had a few rights left
and he promptlv broke the lock off the
car and loaded his wheat.
However, he was not sure just
where he was at and phoned Scobey
for information. Mr. Horgan direct
ed him to Mr. Rueber, district man
ager for the pool. But Mr. Myhre had
done all that was necessary and the
elevator man, like many others, is
just a litle wise to the fact that the
farmers are commencing to wake up
and realize the combinations that have
been riding on his back and thriving

Let The Boys and Girls
Come Too
THIS IS THE SEASON of the year when the
boys and girls can earn a little money for them
selves.
Give them the opportunity to do so.
It is very fine indeed when the young folks
learn to handle money wisely.
To know how to earn money and to spend it
wisely is a quality all must have who want to
become well-to-do.
We are always glad to have the young folks as
our patrons. Let them come. Let them know
the joy of building a bank account—let them
learn to feel at home when in the bank.
You cannot afford to let your neighbors' child
ren get the advantage over yours in this impor
tant matter.
Think it over.

Heavy Alfalfa Seed Crop
Grown In Richland County
Sidney.—A large alfalfa seed crop
is being harvested in Richland county
this season. Many growers have al
ready threshed their crop and the
yields have been favorable for alfalfa
seed production, and as a result the
crop will be larger than usual.
According to latest reports on acre
age, there are now' 4,539 acres of dry
lan<Lalfalfa and 4,242 of irrigated.
The largest increase has been on dry
land and it is conceded that this has
been due to the work of the county ex
tension service in interesting farmers
in the possibilities of alfalfa on dry
land for both seed producitpn and feed
Several farmers last year harvested
$50 worth of seed from their dry land
fields and it is expected with present
prices that a few of therrt will receive
larger cash returns this season.

vanced by the U. S. bureau of educa
tion for the observance of American

preach at least one sermon on educa
tion on that day. The-following day
will be American Constitution day.
This will be followed by Patriotism
day. The stories to be read on that
day are to deal with Nathan Hale,
"The Man Without a Country," Paul
Revere's Ride, The Soldier's Reprieve, i
Winter at Valley Forge, and similar
activities.
School and Teacher day, Illiteracy
day, Community day, when tbe "equal
ity of oportunity for every boy and
