. : He iM ‘ fagace teh: } $16.50 PAGE TWELVE Samples of Minnesota 13 Picked by Judges Would Not Ripen in Three-fourths of State, Theo. Martell Says— Corn Show Should Be Edu- cational Protest against the standards used by the judges in picking the prize winners at the North Dakota state corn show has been voiced by Theo. Martell, county agent in Grant county, in a statement Issued today. “After viewing the relative plac- ings as judged by the corn show judges at Bismarck, there apparent- ly is a doubt inthe minds of many regarding what type of corn we should adhere to in this state,” said Mr. Martell. “From the viewpoint of a good many, the placings can. not be substantiated by the type of ears that we want to grow in this state as a whole, The judges are selecting entirely too large an ear for this state and, if that is the case, which we know it was this year, we are headed in the wrong direction. Not Early Maturing “For instance, almost every sam- ple of Minnesota 13 as placed by the judges will not ripen jn three- fourths of the state of North Da- kota, It may do well in Sargent county or even in Emmons county and possibly in some parts of Bur- leigh county, but it dues not do well in Grant county, Adams county, Hettinger county or in any .other county outside of the few in that select spot as enumerated. “If we are going to continue to set up as an ideal a corn that has been selected for its size rather than for its maturity, then the education- @l value of the corn show is a mi- nus quantity, and since the educa- tional value of the show is the thing! that will make it a success or has made it a success, then let us get down to brass tacks and allow noth- ing but educational features a place at the corn show. Many Farmers Converted “For the last 10 or 12 years I have heard a continuous .preaching by various judges and teachers in egriculture that we must get down to a corn that will mature early, so as to have seed for the following crop, and that is what I have been preaching in my two years in Grant county. I have been successful in that I have many people converted from the old theory—that of select- ing the largest ear for seed—and when we find the reverse advocated at the corn show through the plac- ings there, we do not feel as though ‘we should tolerate it with silence. “Under those conditions, it will be of no use for the farmers of Grant county to send to the’ state show samples of their early matur- ing corn of the dent varieties and have the judges pick as a standard a small area that comprises about one-twentieth of the entire state.” Bismarck Area, Boy Scouts, Organized The Bismarck area, Boy Scouts of yerica, was formally organized at meeting of the Boys’ Work com- ttee at the Chamber of Commer cdnesday night at which time .'G. Nagel, St. Paul, Min CO. AGENT PROTESTS AGAINST STANDARDS USED IN JUDGING CORN gional scout executive, outlined the growth of the scout movement and explained the duties of the local executive officers. W. L. Nuefsle, associate justice of the North Dakota supreme court, was elected president of the coun- cil, Father John Slag, pastor of. St. Mary's procathedral, and H. O. Saxvik, superintendent of the pub- lic schools, were elected vice pres- idents, and George Bird will act as treasurer. W. G.-Fulton, assistant principal of Bismarck high school and direc- tor of the Boys’ Work committee, was commissioned to act as scout executive for the area coungil and will have charge of the active work of the boy scout troops of the area. Names of the troop committeemen announced later. Work of the council will consist largely in the activities of four im- portant committees—troop organiza- tion, court of honor, camping and leadership training. Training of the scout leaders who will handle these committees will be done by means of a school to be known as the Leaders’ Training Course which will be conducted in the near fu- ture, Eight Troops Here Eight troops are now recognized as active in Bismarck and there is room for one or two more, ac- cording to Mr. Fulton, Dependent upon the interest shown by the boys will be organization of further} troops and the broadening of the| educational and recreational pro- g-am that will be sponsored. , Emphasizing the fact that the scout idea ig not merely an organi- zation for boys, but is a man’s or. ganization for youth, Mr. Nagel told of the development of the scout movement from a small beginning in the United States in 1910 until it is now the largest and most ef- fective boys’ club in the world. + Explaining that the boys were al- lowed to educate themselves as much as possible with the scout- master standing back ready to lend a hand, Mr. Nagel outlined for the scout leaders of Bismarck a typical and effective program for the coun- cil or troop meeting and evolved the plan of operation that has been found to produce the best results, —2—___—_— 5 Per Cent Decrease in 1927 Turkey Crop Chicago, Nov. 10—(AP)—Thanks- giving turkeys are a rare bid this year. dl The crop is about five per cent smaller than in 1926, the United States division of crop and livestock ; estimates reported toda: cent larger than 1926. and California also show slight in- creases, Tllinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Min- nesota, Iowa, South Dakota show decreases from six per cent in South Dakota to 13 per cent inNIndiana.
