new GLASSES CROWDED
Sewing, Cooking and Manual Training
Proving Popular in Bemidji.

Manual training and domestic
science, being taught taught for the
first time in the Bemidji public
schools, have become so popular
that the classes are filled to the
limit permitted by the facilitie.
offered.
Superintendent of Schools w.
P. Dyer today said:
"The cooking and sewing classes
ses have reached the point where
they are crowded; all the desks in
the high school are taken and
we have all the pupils that we can
accommodate. The IS desks pro.
vided for the cooking class are all
taken.
"The two classes of sewing are
complete. This goes to show that
patrons appreciate the new courses
and l am much gratified with the
cooperation shown by parents.
1.-TWO classes of cooking in the
eighth grade receive instructions
twice a week and in sewing, three
times a week; in the seventh
grade, once a week. These
classes are taught by Miss Crest.
Sewing instructions are given in
the fifth and sixth grades by tine
regular teachers under the super
vision of Miss Crest.
Our manual training classes are
also proving popular. A circular
and band saw have been added to
the equipment and pupils are doing
advance cabinet work. During the
periods that the girls sew manual
training is being taught in the fifth,
sixth, seventh and eight grades.
In the first, second, third and
fourth industrial work such as paper
folding, clay modelling and. basket
work is taught. ..... .a.
These lines prove enjoyable and
we believe practical, developing cul
ture and refinement, and at the
same time equipping the pupils with
valuable knowledge without inter.
ruption from their regular studies.

Judge of probate-M. A. Clark.
County Attorney-Henry Funkley.

trict-A. E. Rako.
Third district-L. O. Myhre.
This list is based on returns re-
ceived from thirty voting precincts,
including, Bemidji, Blackjack and
Nymore.
The contest for auditor is ex-
ceediDgly close and complete re-
turns may swing the nomination to
either Alsop, George or even
Wilmann.
The vote on auditor from the re-
turns now in stands:
Hayner $50; George 42o; Alsop
381; Wilmann 354.
Spooner and Baudette are yet
to be heard from and should even
a part Of the vote cast for Berg be
punched for any one candidate it
will mean his election.
The close fight for auditor is du-
plicated in the contest for sheriff
Hazen and Johnson running neck
and neck.
The vote for sheriff stands:
Hazen 800; Johnson 7le; Benner
100.
While official returns have not
been received from Kelliher it is
understood that Johnson gets so
votes there to Hazen's eight. John
son contends that his strongest
territory is yet to be heard from and
that on the face of returns now in
his nomination is assured.
The contest for county attorney
was too tame to be exciting, Funkley
running away with the nomination,
having lead of 335 votes. Chester

ney has polled 33S to Campbell's SGT
Funkley having as many as these
combined.
For treasurer George French has
the nomination cinched. His present
lead over Opsata is 612, the vote
being French 1.O4S; Opsata 436.
]. o. Harris has safe lead for
the nomination as register of deeds,
although I. B. Olson developed sur
prising strength in the country dis

971; Olson 665. If the northern
precincts 20 as strong for Olson as
they probably did for Berg the
) Harris plurality will be materially
reduced.
M. A. Clark, present Judge of pro-

investing and the majority of people
come here to make their homes per-
manently- The greater part of the po-
pulation of Twin Falls which is over
hVe thousand, is made up of people of
means and this goes to show that the
Twin Fails tract certainly has great
attractions. The soil which is of re-
markable fertility produces grain, fruit
and every kind of vegetable besides
great quantities of alfalfa and other
things. All lands in Twin Falls and
that adjoining Twin Falls are irrigated
by the wonderful Canal, the largest ir-
rigating ditch in the. United States.
Every element necessary for plant
growth is found everywhere on the
tract, This section of the country is
especially well adapted to the growing
of fruit and every variety of hay and
grain which is raised in abundance, as
there is nothing to prevent its crops
each year since the climate is free
from blight or anything which might
hinder them.
Land is selling for from s65.0O to
$500 dollars an acre and know of one
instance where land sold for ST 900
an acre, The vast production of al
falfa is indeed surprisingly large. Land
often produces three crops of year.
amounting to five to seven tons an
acre.
Now | must bring my letter to a
close sincerely hope that you will come
to Twin Falls soon. AS have told you
the most important facts about the
Twin Falls tract shall leave the rest
for you to see for yourself.

We have two large schools here, the
Lincoln and the Bickel. Both of these
are large structures of modern build
and will accommodate several hun
bred pupils each. There have been
bonds voted for a high school building
which is to be strictly modern when
completed. There are in Twin Falls
