ARE GUESTS OF
Sec. THOS. Cooper
sUPT. "A. D. WILSON OF MINNIE
sofa STATE FARMERS NsTI-
TUTEs AND C. r. WRIGHT VS.
iTING HEAD OF STATE BETTER
FARMING ASSOCIATION.

Secretary Cooper of the Better
Farming association has for his
guests today. Prof, A. D. Wilson, sup
erintendent of the farmers Institutes
and agricultural extension Of the state
Minnesota, whose home is at ST.
Paul, and G. r. Wright OF Fergus
Falls, who is largely interested in the
work Of the better farming people.
MI. Wilson came to the city from
Grand Forks, where he looked into
the work in all its branches with the
assistance Of the North Dakota Bet
ter Farming association men, and he
surprised and delighted with
what he saw and learned. Together
with Secretary Cooper and Mr..
Wright he went over the books, etc,
Of the association at the main office
in the deLendrecie block. and was
given every detail of the work as it is
being done in this state, as well as
what is expected to be done, and he
was very much pleased.
Superintendent Wilson is one of the
best known agricultural men in the
northwest and will likely be seen here
during the great TE-State Grain
Growers. and North Dakota Corn
Growers and North Dakota Corn
was the guest of Secretary Cooper
at the noon hour and will likely re-
main in the city for several days as
he finds the time spent here to be
most profitable in his researches.

TOWN
COUNTRY CLUB
MISS ELLIE REA HAS SECURED
COOPERATION OF SOME or
THE LEADING BOOSTERS OF
CITY TO ORGANIZE A CLUB AT
THE RuTTLEs FARM,

One of the things which Fargo peo-
pie have felt the need of for some
time is a town and country club and
there seems to be no reason why the
scheme which has been set forth by
Miss Ellie Rea, who lis pushing the
project, should not be a splendid suc-
cess. The G. L. Buttles farm which
a been recently offered for sale is
an ideal spot for the club house and
is situated a mile and a half south
of town on the bank of the Red river.
The farm is of Easy access and the
roads south of the oity are always
good as there is no alkalf in the soil.
Perhaps the only Improvement for
h present which will be required is a
large porch, otherwise the house
seems to meet the requirements OF the
proposed scheme. Seven or eight
miles of the river bank adjoining the
Buttles farm are ideal for the use
OF pleasure parties and the grounds
offer excellent provision for golf, ten
mis- and any OF the other popular out
Of door sports. A little later arrange
ments can be made for the popular
country club lunches and dinners.
Miss Rea reports that the idea is
being heartily endorsed by the mar
chants and that she has secured mem
bershtps from many outsiders as well
as the commercial club and auto
clubs. The object Of a town and
country club is to improve the con-
dition of the country roads, to keep
more people in town during the SUM
mer, and to boost in every way to
make Fargo the metropolitan city it
is fast becoming. The memberships
are increasing rapidly. 1t will be nec-
essary to ecure about 500 members
to take definite action.

CANDIDATE FOR REPRESENTA-
TIVE FROM CLAY COUNTY.

Late yesterday afternoon John Turn
er made his filing with the county
auditor as republican candidate for
representative in the lower house of
the legislature from Clay county and
he will now be the candidate of the
G. o. p. in Clay county at the primar-
les to be held over the state Sept II.
For the last week or two, at least
since the formal announcement of Mr..
Lee of Rollag that he did not desire to
be a candidate for the house this year,
republicans of Clay county have been
casting about to find the best available
man to make the ace John Turner
was prevailed upon to be the standard
bearer Of his party in Clay county n
in Moorhead, today, 1t was generally
conceded that Mr.. Turner will be an
easy winner at the primary election in
made for this position on the republic
a ticket, a MI. Melbye of Ulen,
formerly postmaster Of that place.
John Turner, privately and as a
former official of the county, is as well
known ove Clay county as any man
in 1t. He is an old timer and no nan
in the state enjoys the confidence of
his fellow citizens to a greater extent
than does Mr.. Turner. He was county
upeTluLeluent Oh SCnools IOF louf con-
secutiVe terms and besides has filled
responsible appointive offices with
credit to himself and those whom he
represented. At present Mr., Turner is
busy supervising harvesting operations
on a. farm which he owns near Hawley.
For the possession of sound judgment
on public affairs and hard common
sense it is commonly stated that no
man has a fuller measure of those two
important attributes than John Turn
er, and it is pretty certain that he
will be the selection of the republicans
of Clay county.
