PAGE TWO 'HE BISMARCK TRIBUNE FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1928 County Extension Service Plans 1929 Ram Sale and Lamb Pool RADIO FANS OFF = BURLEIGH SET. | TO PUSH CLUBS, WOOL, ALFALFA Program of Agricultural Ex.| pansion Will Continue on Purebred Sire Drive NEW TERRITORY SOUGHT aa i Farmers of Adjoining Areas of Slope to Be Enlisted in Cooperation Here The agricultural extension work program for county, for 1929,| that has been arranged through the office of A. R. Miesen, county agent, is an expansion of the activities so successfully carried on during the present year, with several ambitious Projects added. The sheep campaign will be en- larged. The introduction of this branch of animal husbandry has roved a piece of wisdom both in Tomb and in woll production and the farmers have taken so enthusiastic- ally to it that the program will be enlarged this year by an attempt to promote a fall ram sale at Bis- marck, while a lamb pool is another proposal. A special effort will be made to get some junior work start- ed with sheep. Meanwhile, the wool pool will be continued and increased in size. An effort is to be made to sign up the growers on the retainer agreement plan. The pool sold six carloads of wool last season at a flat price of 42 cents a pound. It received the high- est price paid in the state, the fleeces varying from 25 to 17,000 eae in size netting the Heol mem- rs 41 cents a pound. The price was four cents higher than the pre- vailing price at the time of sale and six to 10 cents higher than the pre- vailing price at the time of delivery. The total of the sale was $93,260, Will Enlarge Wool Pool In the effort to enlarge the pool, he wool growers of adjoining coun- ties are to be invited to join. Last season the state wool pool acted as sales agent for the Slope pool. The arrangement was very satisfactory. With 22,000 fleeces signed up, 226,000 pounds net were delivered by the member growers. They got a down payment of $10,000 or approx- imately $1 per fleece. According to the annual report of the county agent, the purebred sire campaign will be continued in 1929, on about the same basis as in the past year, for this method seems very effective says the report. No special effort will be made to obtain females, says the report, unless on special request. The milking cla: of Shorthorn cattle, which seems to de very popular, is to be given pref- erence. Along with the purebred sire cam- paign for improvement gf the coun- ty’s herds, the T. B, campaign to ac- credit the animals will be continued and completed in the spring. Will Expand on Alfalfa In swine activities, if prices are right, an effort will be made to get orders for some good bred gilts this winter for adult as well as for jun- ior work. The county, says the re- rt, is very much in need of new og blood lines, Depending on the character of the spring, an effort is to be made to expand on sweet clover and alfalfa seeding, provided that the season is at all favorable. Every effort will then be made to speed the acreage of these legumes up to the ma: mum. These two crops, says the re- Port, are two of the outstanding needs of this territory. Enough of @ successful demonstration has been made, says Agent Miesen, to show that these crops can be grown here with : iecess, In wheat activities, in order to comply with the popular demand, at least two carloads of Canadian re istered Marquis seed wheat will be imported. - Several cars of Ceres will be in demand, as well as some Mindum. Good seed flax as well as other seeds will be in demand and the de- mand will be filled says the report.

The time between hi: sual accession to formal enthrone- ment is due to the requirement of a year’s mourning for the deceased sovereign, after which another sea- son for growing the blessed rice used in the enthronement ceremonies must intervene. Hirohito is 124th of his line. Ac- cording to the officially accepted chronology the Japanese dynagty is 2,588 years old, for the legend has it that the empire was founded in 600 C., by Jimmu Tenno, the great-grandson of the grandson of the great Sun Amaterasu-Omi-Kami, the divine an- cestress of the Japanese nation and central figure of the pantheon of Shinto, the national religion. The reigns of the earliest emper- ors are shrouded in the mists of proto-history. Besides other super- human attributes the official histo- ries ascribe to the rulers a Ic..gev- ity comparable to that of the Old Testament times that produced Methuselah. The average reign of he first 10 rulers is 63 years, in- cluding the 101-year reign of Koan, sixth of the line. From this and other evidences competent modern historians agree that the official chronology has placed Jimmu Tenno’s accession about 600 years too early. Even if this were the case, the dynasty would still have a history no other state has produced, The nearest ap- proach history offers to the Japanese record is the semi-legendary Chow dynasty of China wiich lasted a lit- tle less than 900 years, Of Hirohito’s 123 predecessors | female.

During the greater part. of Japan’s history the emperors have led a secluded, almost cloistered ex- istence, and few have been outstand- ing, historical figures. The Japanese hold in greatest ven- eration the first emperor, Jimmu, and the grandfather of the present | F' monarch, Meiji Tenno, the enlight- ened sovereign under whose reign Japan emerged from medieval feud- alism to take her place among the great modern ers, For more than a thousand years the emperors at Kyoto, the former capital were little more than sym- bols of the national varie wielding no actual power. The real aorernnrs of the empire were the Shoguns, military chieftains who ruled from other capitals. This ended with the restoration of the émperor in 1868 when the shogurate was abolished and the imperial qapital was estab. lished at Tokyo.

Rooms Aids in Start of $400 Fund for Big Trouble Search OFFERED UTILITY HELP Hughes Company to Eliminate Any Fault in Lines; Dealers to Give Half of Cost Curfew was rung on radio inter- ference in all forms in Bismarck, last night, when a score of fans were got together to fin: a drive by trouble shooters to clear the air of disturbance sources. % The score met at the Association of Commerce rooms. They heard a ledge of $200 toward the necessary Funds. from the radio set dealers. Then they chipped in an additional il as a starter and appointed a committee to go after the remain- ing cash needed, which it was stated will be about $200 in addition to the dealers’ contributions. That is, about $400 will be required to keep the trouble shooters on the job of locating the source of disturbance. This committee consists of S. W. Corwin, chairman; E. H. Morris, R. D. Hoskins, Carl Nelson and A. R. Tavis. It will canvass the radio set owners of the city for additional con- tributions to the fund. Electric ‘Company to Aid If any trouble is traced to the electric Bigh dines, that will be taken care of by fhe Hughes company, S. W. Corwin, who was chairman of the meeting, announced as a promise from Manager Mattison. The meeting was told that the in- terference that mars the evening pleasures of the’ radio-set owner is manifested from many sources, some in the form of high line static, some created by motors, others by violet Tay machines, while flash buttons or the sparks from an abraded electric line insulation will produee a deton- ation like the discharge of a gun. Trouble Shooters Here The particular occasion for taking up at this time the proposal to clear the air is the arrival in Mandan of @ pair of expert trouble finders from ‘argo. Already they have begun work and have located a number of Mandan interference sources. They offered their services to the fans of Bismarck through interviews with H. P. Goddard, secretary of the Association of Commerce, and S. W. Corwin, of Corwin-Churchill Motors incorporated. They charge $1.75 an hour and expenses for their services. It was calculated that this would en- tail at least $120 a week as the cost of the local drive and that it might require three weeks to clean up the city’s ether. r H. P. Goddard called the meeting to order . and . Gorwin -was chosen chairman, while A. R. Tavis was called on to serve as secretary. Chairman Corwin said this was the third ‘time the meeting had been called, while about 50 fans had ex- pressed their opinion to him that the idea was a fine one, none of these were present. The matter before those present, he said, was a simple Proposition. Radio interference, he said, can be run down, but it takes money. Some Forms of Trouble The trouble shooters who are now at work in Mandan, he said, supply a radio compass, while the fans must furnish a man to assist and a car. With a portable set, the experts can almost walk direct onto the trouble, He said this trouble has been found ten miles out of Mandan. It also has been found to extend to Dickin- son, while at Glen Ullin it is at the worst, Where the noise is caused by di- rect motors, the chairman said, that can all be eliminated. Either direct or alternating motors can be ground- ed out. The projectors of the trouble drive, he said, propose to locate such plants as are causing the interfer- ence, he added, and let them remedy it.

The Army submitted a long | list of cases to which. it will give attention in the form of Christmas dinner baskets, shoes and clothing. The Association of merce com: mittee has a list, but it is not long as that of the Army. Both list were checked, then it was found that the local committee has ten cases left which have not yet been taken over by a Good Fellow. The number of cases and the ex- tent of the needs to be given atten- tion average up about with former years, said Miss Cashel. Some fam- Ties will be taken care of when basket dinner has been provided, others have clothing or shoe. needs which will require going down a bit bee in the pocket by some Good ‘ellow. Some of the Good Fellows ere leaving the matter in the hands of Miss Cashel by donating cash suffi- cient to meet the needs of some par- tiontar cage or as nieretion oe a eral use among cases y hae other contributions to the funds. The movement will be held open up to Christmas eve, said Miss Cashel. She said Edith Teichman, school nurse, is giving much aid to the catise and by her know! of conditions gait in her work is en- abling the committee to cover the city more thoroughly than would otherwise be possible.
