SUMMER AGRICULTURAL
COURSE WILL Be GIVEN
State Agricultural College Will lnaugu-
rate Course Of Much Benefit to
Teachers Generally. ..@

St. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 6.-(Special
to Pioneer. )-Plans of exceptional
value to the agricultural intere SITS of
the state will be put into effect
through the decision to establish a
short summer course in agricultural
subjects for teachers. principals and
superintendent of MINES t a
schools, at the State Experiment
Station, St. Anthony Park, Saint
Paul, to open on June 9Th, closing
Saturday, June 9th.
This will permit teachers to COM
plete the course prior to the open
ing of summer schools. The subjects
included in the course are such as
to give teachers and others helpful
and practical instruction in .agricul-
ture. The work given will combine
lecture and labratory work and field
exercises. Among the subjects to
to be taken up during the course are
agriculture and it's principles, agri-
culture chemistry, animal husbandry,
blackmithing, dairy husbandry and
animal nutrition, dairy stock, domes-
tic art, domestric science, entomol-
ogy, horticulture and forestry, plant
diseases, poultry, soils, and practical
general work intended to give
thorough insight into matters re-
lated to practical farming.
The course has been designed to
give principals wishing to introduce
carpentry, blacksmithing,, the ele-
ments of agriculture, sewing, cook
ing and other subjects into their
school courses an insight which will
make such subjects practical and
successfully taught. County super
intendents will be given an oppor-
tunity to learn at first hand the
elements of successful agriculture.
An immense amount of definitely
practical instruction for the teachers

The management of the big Be-
midg" basketball team has secured
the Brainerd team to play a game
here Friday evening, against the
local team, which will be one of the
contests for the championship of
northern Minnesota.
Considerable correspondence has
been had of late with the manage
ment of the University of North
Dakota basketball team, relative to
playing a game here for the cham
pionship of Northern Minnesota and
North Dakota, the u" team being
reconized as the champions of the
"Flickertail' state, and the Big
Bemidg" five claim the supremacy
of northern Minnesota. Lee Heffron,
local manager, had telephone talk
with A. J. Bell, the ~" manager,
at different times, and after the lat
ter had practically agreed to bring
his team here, he side-stepped con-
siderably and has taken on team
from Winnipeg, to play at Grand
Forks. The Big Bemidg" players
assert with considerable confidence
their ability to win from the Grand
Forks team, and are inclined to the
belief that the University boys don't
care to try for conclusions.
Three of the present members of
the u" team were members of the
Grand Forks independent team
which played here three weeks ago,
(the visitors taking the first game,
and being outplayed at every point
in the second contest) the players
from the u" being Oliver, O'Keefe
and Netcher.
1t is expected that the game with
Brainerd (Friday night) will be an
interesting one. Brown (center and
captain of the Big Bemidg" team
formerly played in Brainerd, and Fred
Sanborn, the captain of the Brainerd
five, is former McAllister college
star. The remainder of the team is
composed of old-time basketball
players who will undoubtedly put up
good game.

themselves will be embodied in the
work of the course, which is largely
designed to help them make their
instruction in all agricultural sub
jects, thoroughly practical and more
valuable to their pupils. State
Superintendent Olsen warmly en-
dorses the work outlined by Dean
Randall and will participate in the
lecture work of the course, as will
other competent and pract c a
authorities. Unexpected that there
will be large registration for the
course, the cost of which will be very
moderate. The registration fee for
the course is but IS, and arrange
ments for excellent board at especi-
ally low rates have been completed
through the cooperation of the
Experiment Station.

Every number on the program was

The entire program was carried

Particular mention of any single
performer, where all did so we'll,

entire concert was better than the
average home-talent affair, and all
who participated are deserving of
credit.

for Hennepin Lumber Co.

-Kelliher Journal: S. L. Marshall,
of Nimrod, Mimi, arrived here last
week with a small sawmill outfit
which he moved about seven miles
west of Kelliher on the Cormant

Mr.. Marshall has taken a large
contract from the Hennepin Lumber

cut into lumber 100000 feet of
timber which that company owns in
the immediate vicinity of the place
where the mill will be located.
The contract between Mr.. Mar.
shall and the Hennepin Lumber
company calls for the logging, cut.
ting into lumber and delivering
aboard cars at Kelliher. Camps are
being built and logging will at once
be commenced, as we'll as the erect.
ing of the mill and installing of the
machinery. -..-.
The contract for the actual cutting
of the lumber has been sub-let to
J. E. Wood of Staples who is a prac-
tical mill man, having operated
small sawmills for the past seven
years.
In addition to the timber the com
pany already owns, other timber will
be purchased from the homesteaders
in that vicinity, and it is expected
that enough can be secured to
operate the mill for several years.

WILL PUT IN SHEEP TO
CLEAR OFF SHRuBBERY
E. G. Quigley, Professor Of Psychology
at moorhead Normal, Wilt Farm
.-. Near Blackjack. . il

Prof. E. G. Quigley of Moorhead,
professor of PSYCHE logy in the Moor
head normal school, has decided to
engage in agricultural and stock
raising pursuits to certain extent
and will follow out his ideas in Bel
trami county. ~...s~ J.
Professor Quigley has purchased
some land east of Blackjack from ].
]. Opsahl, and he will establish his
farm at that place.
1t is the intention of the professor
to put a gang of men to work to
clear the land of dead and down
timber and trim the balance of the
timber and put it into shape for
preservation.
Professor Quigley will put large
number of sheep onto the land for
the purpose of clearing the under
brush. He believes that the sheep
will prove to be the best cleaner of
small shrubbery that can be utilized.
Professor Quigley desires to spend
several months of the year away
from his arduous duties in the
Moorhead normal and starts on his
new farm as a diversion from his
duties as much as for pecuniary
profits. s. -.....' III. ....@

for the state as whole and empha-
sized the fact that Bemidji was right
in the front rank of those cities that
will be benefited by the federation.
The club now has about fifty
members in good standing and
there are a number of applications
for new membership. It is ex-
pected that the club will have at
least 100 members within the next
three months. -.
One of the matters which were
taken up by the club is the putting
forth of every effort to induce manu-
featuring industries to locate in
this city. Bemidji is excellently
located for the establishment of
manufacturing institutions and,
geographically, this place is unex-
celled in northern Minnesota as a
general distribution point, being
the central city of the north half
of the state, with most excellent rail-
road facilities.
Boosting for a Bigger, Better
Bemidji' should be adopted by
every citizen of this place, and
the commercial club will undoubt-
edly receive the hearty support of
Bemidjians in it's work.
