‘a big hit and kept the spectators in / PAGE FOUR ' BELTRAMI PATRIOTS ASSIST BEMIDJI (Continued from page one) Trivlane Big Magmet. . Jealously. guarded by a khaki clad crew, the big government battle tri- plane rested in security on the lake front at the foot of Third street and was an object of much curiosity and interest. Much as they would “have liked to allow the crowds to approach for a personal and detailed inspection, government regulations .prevented, but Major Weaver, com- mander .of the big Overland govern- ment’ aviation mechanical school, Minneapolis, was the man responsi- ble for the presence of the battle plane and his courtesy in permitting the plane come to Bemidiji as a big feature of the day-1s certainly ap- preciated, and: the appreciation on the part of Bemidji is due Major " Weaver. Sports Hotly Contested. ' The long program of athletic con- tests were hotly contested and proved highly interesting. “The 100-yard dash was won by Alex Ripple; A. Anderson, second, and Alys Smith; third. The boys’' century, for boys under 16 years old, was won by Golden So- per; John Smith, second, and Stew- art Sullivan, third. The potato race was taken by Golden Soper; Elmer Clark, second, and Laverne Hickerson, third. Raymond Breen was the best at runping jin a sack and took first in the sack race, his brother, Walter, getting second, and Walter Smith, third. Girls Good Sorinters. ‘Miss Bernice Kirk proved the most fleet footed in thé race for girls un- der 16 .years, Miss Ella Goerke, sec- ond and:Ruth: Caskey, third. In the 50-yard dash for girls un- der 10 years, Irene Hannah carried oft first prize, Lillian Edwards, sec- ond, and Irene Lahr, -third. Kenneth Wilson proved the best of the boys under 10 in the boys’ race for that class, Raymond Breen second, and Angus third. i o Cracker Contest “Peach.” & The cracker eating contest proved " an uproar, One of the rules was that after the allotted quota of crackers had been eaten by the con- testant the first one to whistle was the winner. A mouthful of dry cragkers is not calculdted to -ald much in whistling but Leland Traf- ton managed to get a chirp out of his “crumb-lined -lips and was the winner. Milton Miller squeezed through the second one and Julius Goldberg was the third. Foley’s Outpull Jacobson’s. In the tug ’o war contest ,by teams gelected from the crowd, Foley’s boys outpulled Jacobson’s .team, 3 In the relay race, Alex Ripple's quartet outran a team of Indians from Red: Lake. Dan Johnson had the best pair of legs in the boys’ bicycle race and won. ~Leonard Trafton was second and J. Smith, third. Postmaster Ritchie was in form on the horseshoe pitching contest and he and C. M. Jacobson defeated Lee Worth and Glen Grover, second., and W. R. Howell and Don Lester, third. Firemen in Race, In the firemen’s competitive race, two teams, one captained by Paul Winklesky, defeated a team captain- ed by John Goodman. The contest was with-the motor truck, distance from Eighth' street down Beltrami avenue to Second street, lay 300 feet of hose, make coupling and get wa- ter, The time of the winner was 1:16 and the other 1:25. A member of the second team was Chief of Police Ripple and when he left- the truck with a ‘lead of hose he was jerked heavily to the pave- ment and received several scratches on his hands. The band played a concert in Li- brary park as the closing number of the day's program. U bl b INDIAN AGENTS GET ° " THORSON AND BOOZE Theodore Thorson of Bemidji ar- rived home from Plummer this morn- ing and he was met at the depot by a reception committee consisting of Chief Brandt of the Indian agents and Agent Johnson. Thorson had a hunch that coming from Plummer would be an easy matter to also bring into government ‘territory,a little booze as a means of repleshing his cash reserve and accordingly he brought three quarts of booze and a small glass with which to peddle :it:'with more con- venience. The federal’ officers took Thorson, booze and glass, and Thor- son went to jail to await hearing this afternoon.

" FRESH BUTTERMILK DALY 10 CENTS GALLON - THE CREAMERY Turning The Waste Products of The Farm Into Dollars HE war is putting the nation on a new basis of I thrift 'and economy. Every item of waste—on the farm, in business, and in the home—must be stopped or converted into profit. The waste products of the farm can be easily and suc- cessfully converted into profit—foodstuffs that the nation needs—through poultry. And to'make poultry produce—a warm, sanitary and con- venient poultry house is essential. It means earlier hatches and more winter eggs. Lumber is not high in price compared to the value of farm products. It pays to build well. And that is. why, for siding and outside uses, we recommend WHITE PINE ‘as the best of all woods.

Not altogether satisfactory—not to some. g When a young girl and an 11- year-old boy can mount a Fordson tractor and turn up sod and every- thing else on a farm tract, such as was done on the J. H.

The ‘problem is to be solved this: af- ternoon on Dr. A. V. Garlock’s farm east of Bemidji. It was a big crowd of interested spectators who witnessed the demon- stration’ of the tractor- which the government. is” providing at cost for Minnesota to increase its crop'area, and everybody who could run a velo- cipede took a hand and ran the trac- tor and pulled its plow in the most approved fashion. % ‘When Miss Alma Beach-of. the Jewett garage and Miller Jewett, C.
