THE BISMARCK' TRIBUNE, MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 1930 2 _ Drough ~ FEARHUGE CAN THIS YEAR WILL NOT BE REPEATED Only Scant Increase, if Any, Is in Prospect as Farmers Cull Flocks CO-OP HAS BIG VOLUME Expect Marketing Agency to Handle 3,500,000 Pounds of State Wool in 1930 Fargo, N. D., Aug. 18—()—Sale of sheep this fall, made necessary be- cause of lack of feed due to drought, will cut heavily into the North Da- kota wool clip next year, A. C. Bjerk- en, secretary-treasurer of the North Dakota Cooperative Wool Marketing association, said here Saturday. Only a scant increase, if any, will be shown by next year’s crop over 1930, while this year a huge gain was reported by North Dakota farms com- | pared with that of 1929. With 95 per cent of the state clip shipped to eastern markets, indications are the amount handled by the co-op ‘will be 3,500,000 pounds, Mr. Bjerken. declared. He estimated 90 per cent of the state crop is being sold thjs year through the co-op. Government graders were stationed this year at strategic points in the state, including Fargo and Grand Forks, and they helped considerably in getting the clip to eastern mar- kets in better shape than previously, reflecting in high prices to the si.eep ranchers. A large portion of the crop has been graded “semi-bright,” which demands a high price in the eastern markets. The better grade of wool, Mr. Bjerken sald came from west of the Misrouri river, despite heavy wind and dust storms. Operators of the pool were working during the week at Fairmount, N. D., the last center from which wool was purchased for this year. Approxi- mately 100,000 pounds were purchased there previously. The total wool clip in the United States next year probably will show @ decrease because of animals sold following the drought, according to Mr. Bjerken. In some sections where sheep have been raised in large num- bers it Imag been necessary to haul water even for human consumption, and sheep have suffered badly. Minnesota Man to Talk at Mayville Mayville, N. D., Aug. 18—(#)—Dr. John Walker Powell, special lecturer from the. general extension division of the University of Minnesota, will be the commencement speaker for the summer quarter at the Mayville Teachers college.

On Tuesday a session will be held at Naughton school No. 2, and Wednes- day the demonstration will be in Glenview school No. 2. Among the demonstration teachers expected for the two-day session are Mrs. Elsie Parker, Dickinson; Miss Nettie Hunt- er, Rugby, and C. A. Bugbee, Mandan, deputy superintendent for Morton county. ——______» Farm Facts | * o All in all the benefits from sweet clover under pasture are largely due “the uneaten residues left on the soil, to the roots left in the soil, to the general improvements of the physical condition of the soil and to the sup- Pression of weeds by pasturing. The best time to cut corn for silage is when it is well dented. At this stage the corn has more feeding value than in the earlier, immature stages. To insure success in beekeeping, a strong vigorous queen is necessary. Farmers who insist that the thresh- ing machine be cleaned before it en- ters their premises avoid many weed pests, the seeds of which are carried from farm to farm by the separator. A -total pf 1,302 dresses made by homemakers were shown at county Achievement days this summer, ac- cording to Julia Brekke, extension clothing specialist. Beware of wood ticks. These crea- tures are suspected of carrying the tularemia disease. o—___________ , | AT THE MOVIES | b koomaeraeemes ee PARAMOUNT THEATRE Paul Whiteman and his band long known to everyone through their records, toncert and theatre, appear- ances, are featured in Universal's“ The King of Jazz”, which opened a two day engagement today at the Para- mount Theatre.

The pic- ture opened today at the) Capital Theatre. The story is a smart drama of ul- tra-modern society, in which the heroine, as an actress, upsets aristo- cratic society through an engagement, @ love affair, and finally a dramatic sacrifice. Sidney Franklin, known for “The Last of Mrs. Cheyney,” “Wild Orchids,” “The Actress,” “Duchess of Buffalo” and other outstanding pro- ductions, directed the new picture with a notable cast which includes Mrs. Cheyney.” ‘Two members of the original Lon- don stage cast, Mackenzie Ward and Fred Kerr, appear in the screen ver- | sion, in which Miss Chatterton plays | - c Included in the “King of Jazz” is|the heroine, Elsie, and Basil Rath- | ital’s tourist attractions, known’ to bone the hero, Edward. The story deals with an actress who, through a freak of fate, be- | comes engaged to the son of a British peer. Parental opposition resolves itself into strategy, and she is asked to remain in the home of the aristo- ‘cratic father, to accustom herself to society. Instead, society accustoms it- self to her, and it upsets society con- siderably. Then a real love affair dawns, but finally she sacrifices her own happiness for that of a woman who needs her lover more than she does.

Starting with the National Girl Scout Little House in Washington, which has been one of the chief interests of Mrs. Herbert Hoover, now Hoxorary President of the Girl Scouts, the idea of building or buying such communal centers for local Girl Scout activities has spread from Coast to Coast. Characterized by Mrs. Hoover as “the halfway house between the playhouse of childhood and the home every girl hopes to achieve some day,” the Little House has made interesting history in the Girl Scout movement. Herbert Hoover laid its corner- stone, when he was Secretary of Commerce and President of the Better Homes in America Founda- tion, the aim of which was to im- prove living conditions in our ntry, The foundgtion en- reged the building of mode!

In Washington, the building ap | chai Propriately designed from the birthplace of John Howard Payne, author of “Home, Sweet: Heme,” attracted much widespread aten- tion, when built by the General Federation of Womén’s Clubs. After its temporary purpose had been fulfilled, the Federation pre- sented it to the Girl Scouts, through Mrs. Hoover, then their President. Under Mrs. Hoover's direction, the Little House soon took on @ distinct individuality. The Little House idea began to grow. Mrs. Hoover believed that here could be gratified the feminine urge, which begins way back in thé mud-pie days, fer domesticity, cookiig, playing with dolls, for having one’s own spot where mothers may be imitated iu every household pur. sult, The Little House provides &n outlet for this instinct, and the Girl Scout program fosters it tow- ard practical application. In every community which has a Little House, and in the many which are erecting them, the building is recognized as a home- making center. The Girl Scouts themselves have opportunity to help plan the color schemes of the Tooms, to assist in the geleetion of Girl Scout Home-Making Activities Stimulated by Aid of Mrs. Hoover" (Above) the curtains and rugs and to meke their collective contributions to its rm, When {t 18 possible to have grounds about the Little House, care and imagination may be ex- pended. on creating a delightful garden. Mrs. Hoover, ardent and enthusiastic supporter of Girl Scouting, takes particular pride and interest in the Washington Little House. She recently helped in the planting of a rock garden there, and has been among the donors of plants and flowers to the Girl Scout memory garden. Tn 1926, while Dean Sarah Lovise Arnold of Boston was President of the girl scout organization, a din- ner was given at the Little House for ex-President and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, at which Dean Arnold was also a guest, and Mr. James Storrow of Washington, then Pres- ident of the Boy Scouts, and Her- bert Hoover as President of the Better Homes.

Both sentences later were suspended. The penalty in Rome for a similar offense is a mere dollar fine.
