people had an idea could not be

has a turning lathe a shaper and
pianer, an electric metal saw, a.
forge that can be heated to a point
that will dissolve brass, and the
hundred and one other up to date
fixtures required for the class of
work he IS frequently called on
to turn out. Mr.. Johnson is a ma
chinist second to none in the
1oun,ry. Recently he fixed up the
hind axle of a threshing machine
for Mr.. Cotant, dong work on it
that could not be done elsewhere
except in the founderies or largest
machine shops. His equipment is
now located IN frame building
in the rear of his residence, but
the building is but the frame for
a concrete structure which VIII be
put up later. Already the found
alton for the new building has
been put in. and a cement floor
laid for the machinery to rest on.
He is preparing to do. and to do
well, all kinds of machine, vehicle
and tool repair 'ng, automobile work
and kindred efforts-in fact any
thing in that line, no matter what
It may be, can safely be intrusted
to Mr.. Johnson.

Some time in the month OF Au-

Of the qualified electors The pc

at least 40 per cent OF the voters

the clerk at least 10 days before
the regular meeting of the commits
sioners, which IN tn 8 case will oc-
cur on the second Monday in July.
The missioners, at their option,
may then call the election, which
must be held on Wednesday in

various precincts Not less than
thirty days, nor more than sixty
days, may elapSe between the time
it is ordered and the time it is
held. Twenty days notice must be

Both sides are anxious for the

half dry-is not satisfactory to
either, and very few people of either
belief are refusing to sign the pc

and water at the falls for another
plant just like the one now there.

of state land were readily dis
posed of here at public auc-
tion last Thursday in the sale
conducted by Comm ssioner
George A. Day and associ-
ates. The sale was marked by
spirited bidding, and one
division Of this virgin nom
irrigated land went for $3.50
per acre. The sum total Of
moneys for the land sold
amounts to $4,000. The
smallest pr'ce paid was $11
per acre and four sections
went at this figure. Two
other forties went for s13,
and the rest varied from SIS
to the maximum price, $3.50.

clared themselves to be very
well satisfied with the result
of the sale, and, as the ma
jorlty of the buyers are men
who already have tried out
dry farming in this locality,
the sale must have been
profitable all around. When
