BOY DROWNED
IN CALUMET dam
.YEAR-OLD ARVlO BECK
OF LAURluM MEETS HIS
DEATH IN FIVE FEET
OF WATER.

While walking along the eastern
bank of the Calumet dam about
o'clock last evening Hjemar Poikals
of Centennial Heights, noticed tho
clothing of boy. Surmising thai
something was wrong. Poikila prompt
| ly Invested himself of his clothing. and
started TO investigate the bottom OF
the dam. which was about five feet
deep at this point. After walking
! around for some time he stumbled
over the body of boy who proved Ia
he Arvid Beck. the eleven oar-old
son of Mrs. Julia Beck of Laurium.
PoiSila brought the body to the sur
face and tried artificial respiration for
about ten minutes I'm an effort to re-
vive the boy. Being unsuccessful he
went to the nearest telephone, and
called up Marshal Trudell who
promptly visited the scene.
From the evidence of two compan-
ions of young Beck. the three boys
went swimming in the dam about 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon. After
spending some time in the water,
young Becks companions decided that
they had enough and waded to shore.
while dressing they tried To persuade
Beck To come ashore also, but failed,
the boy deciding to stay in the water
little while longer Becks compan-
ions then went away. No one wit
messed the drowning.
Coroner William Fisher was noti-
fed of the finding of the body, and
after impanneling a jury, set the in
quest for tomorrow afternoon
The boy faith r is in the west some
where having left Calumet about three
years ago. A pathetic feature of the
accident is the fact that young Beck
was the only child. The mother is
almost frantic with grief.
The funeral will take place tomor-
row afternoon. leaving the residence
on Pewabic street Laurium, at :
o'clock. for Lake View cemetery. Rev.

lower than it would be had it all
been properly farmed.
Many Of the most successful
farmers say that summer fall
lowed land is much more profit
able and that it is a question
with them if it would not be bet
ter all around to summer fallow
more than they do. The grain
is better, the yield more satisfac-
tory and the returns bring in the
money. From this it may be
said that the farming Of the val
ley will steadily improve and the
production per acre will increase
correspondingly.

School of Agriculture

The School Of Agriculture Of
fered by the Montana Agricul-
tural college, opens October 10th
and extends through three years
of six months each. 1t comes
during the winter season when
the young men can be spared
from the farm work.
For entrance to this course,
students must have passed the
eighth grade or it's equivalent.
Young men q years of age or
over will be admitted to the
course without having completed
the eighth grade in the public
school, provided they have had
some practical work upon the
farm.
The work in the School of Ag-
riculture is made as practical as
possible. The students are al
lowed to secure a great deal of
actual experience in farming.
They become familiar with the
different breeds of livestock and
the different varieties of grains
and grasses. A large amount of
experience in judging both grain
and live stock is given.
Briefly, the School of Agricul-
ture has for it's specific purpose
the training Of the younger gen.
GRAFTON in such a way that the
term farming" will mean a
pleasure and a profitable source
of income.
No tuition is charged. The

Better Farming
Next Season

There is a disposition among
many Of the Mission valley farm
ers to do better farming next
year, at the expense Of not hav-
ing in so many acres. There are
some comforting assurances in
this determination. One is that
it will demonstrate the possible
tiles of the land better than to
half do too much farming and
have the annual yield indicate
that the land will not yield the
returns it should. There will
also be the saving in expense of
farming more land than can be
properly cultivated, and this will
be quite an item.
Several farmers have remarked
that hereafter they did not in
tend to disc in any more wheat
on stubble land, but would pillow
the land thoroughly, even if they
did not succeed in sowing the
number of acres they have here
tofore. AS one farmer said, he
would rather have 100 acres of
wheat in where he had plowed
the ground than twice that
amount only indiAferently done.
The yield per acre all over the
valley this year will not be much
beyond Is bushels, while in many
cases individual fields yielded
better than IS bushels per acre.
But when the yield is averaged
with that stumbled in, it is much
