Progress on Flour Mill

Work on the -four mill building is
making such good progress that the
installation of the machinery will be-
gin in about two weeks. 1t is ex-
pected that everything will be in
working order and the plant be open
ed for business by the end of the
present month.
This -four mill enterprise will be a
great benefit to farmers who are in
a position to take advantage of the
facilities that are offered. 1t will be
a custom mill, open to every farmer
who has grain for sale or which he
wishes to convert into -four o. feed.
Its services will not be confined to
those who are stockholders in the
enterprise. Every farmer is invited
to bring his grain to the mill and
is assured equal treatment in all his
business dealings with the institu.
ton.
Tracy Andrews, manager of the
flour mill announces that the plant
will do a general milling business,
exchanging -four for wheat, grinding
feed of all kinds. and will have -four
and feed on sale at all times. In a
very short time, Chouteau county
farmers will have the pleasure of
eating bread made from wheat that
is grown on their own farms.

OF Interest to Bachelor Homesteaders

The ruling recently made by the
commissioner of the general land Of
flee relative to the marriage of home
steaders who have not made final
proof, is of personal interest to the
parties affected. The commissioner
instructs western land officials as fol-
lows: 1.-The act applies to claims in
itiated before or after it's date. and to
become entitled t. the benefits it is
required that each of the parties shall
have complied with the requirements
of the homestead laws for not less
than n year next preceding their
marriage. Where the parties, or eth
er of them. are entitled to credit for
such compliance prior to entry, that
time may be counted in making up
the period Of one year, and it follows
that neither of the entries need be
II year old at the time of marriage.
1.-The law confers upon the hus-
band the privilege of electing on
which Of the two entries the family
shall reside. His election must be
supported by the aftidavits of both the
parties, describing their entries and
showing the facts as to the residence,

Friday morning, after a long period
of suffering from a Ger affec-

Crushed by Traction Engine

James G. Crawford, a young mar
about 26 years old who has been
making his residence on a homestead
near Eagle Butte, was almost in.
stantly killed Friday afternoon by
being crushed under the wheels of a
traction engine. Coroner w. F.. Will
ford received word of the accident
Friday evening, and Immediately went
out to Clear Lake and brought the
body to town.
The unfortunate young mar was
working with a threshing crew at the
Eugene Dashiell ranch near Clear
Lake, being employed as fireman for
a 25-hOrsepOwer steam tractor. He
was left in charge Of the engine while
other members of the crew were eat
ing dinner, and about 1890 o'clock
it was discovered that fire had brok-
en- out in the straw pile. The men
rushed from the house and gave their
first attention to saving the thresh-
ing outfit, the tractor being started
up to pull the separator to a place of
safety. The machinery was envelop-
ed in smoke, and in the hurry and
confusion no thought appears to have
been given as to the whereabouts of
the fireman, but it is supposed he
vas sleeping on the ground near the
engine when it was started up, and
the wheels passed over him and
crushed his head. 1t was a most de-
plorable accident, for which it ap-
pears there was no one to blame.
The deceased is said to have a
brother living near Lethbridge, Can
ada, to whom news of his death has
been t~elegraphed by the authorities.

University Shows Bio Growth

What is declared by educators to
be the most phenomenal growth aver
experienced by a college or univer-
sity in the United States, is shown by
statistics compiled by the registrar
of the University of Montana. With
a total enrolment of 545 college
students at the close Of the 1914 sum-
mer session, the University of Mon
tana has witnessed, during the last
two years, a 1875 per cent increase
in number of students taking collegi-
ate work. More real, college students
were enrolled in the University of
Montana during the past year than in
all the other public and private insti-
tutions in the state combined.
When President Edwin Boone
Craighead took Office in August. 1912,
a total of 22O students we're enrolled
in the University of Montana. Dur
ing the college year of 1%912-1913, the
enrolment increased to 243. During
the year 1%913-1914, the registration
totalled 545. One hundred eighty-one
students were enrolled in the 1913
summer session of six weeks and 2S3
students during the 1914 short ses-
sion.
The increase in the number of stu
dents has been accompanied by an
expansion of instruction offered by
the university. The coming college
year which opens Tuesday, Septem-
Der s. will see the establishment of
a new school Of journalism, the or
ganization of a department Of man
ual arts. the expansion of the school
Of forestry which will soon be housed
in a $1,000 building constructed n
tirely of Montana logs, and the ex-
tension work offered by the depart
ment OF household arts to include de-
signing and decorating.

COVE TO THE FAIR

OS. ~ I'LL EVUI
Three Days Of Good Entertainment
For chouteau County Citizens
The preparations for the third an.
nual fair of the ChOuteau County
Fair association are so we'll advanced
that visitors can be assured of a
good time on each of the three days
September 10, II and IL. The
farm exhibits have already begun to
arrive, and inspection of these sam
pies indicate that Chouteau county
farmers are prepared to "show the
goods" to competitors in the several
lines, and invite comparison with sim
liar products that are raised in 9TH
er parts of Montana.
A circular letter was recently is
sued by the Fair Association and the
Commercial club in which Chouteau
county farmers were urged to select
some of the best specimens of their
grain and other products for display
at the county fair. There has been
a gratifying response to this sugges.
ton, but it is possible that some
farmers who have crops of unusual
excellence have not received a copy
of the circular. In such case it is
hoped a direct personal solicitation
will not be necessary. The fair man.
agement will welcome displays of
farm and garden products of any
kind that have been raised by a res
ident of Chouteau county. They will
be received and properly entered by
Fl. F. Miller, secretary of the Fair
association, or James A. Murty, Sec
rotary of the Commercial club.
The Fair association has issued an
attractive racing program for the
three days, the events and the prizes
offered being announced as follows:

be open from 700 until 900 each
evening Of the fair and on Septem-
Der 9th, for the purpose of receiving
entries. Entries will not be received
at the track. Early entries will be
much appreciated as this will enable
the association to get out attractive
programs of the next days racing.
The third annual fair promises to
eclipse former efforts to demonstrate
the progress that is being made on
Chouteau county farms, and citizens
| who are interested in the growth and
development of this part of Montana
should not miss the opportunity to
see tangible evidence of what is be-
ing done by the farmers in this part
of the state.

Il. S. TRACK MEET.
Fifty Teams Expected to Compete In
Eleventh Annual Classic.

Lawrence, Kan. April Fifty
track teams from high schools all
over the state are expected to COM
pete In the eleventh annual hign
school track meet on McCook neld,
University Of Kansas. Saturday, May
2. Thirty-seven teams participated IN
the meet last year, and invitations
will be sent to every high school In
the state this week. In connection
with the track meet will be held the
sex enth annual interscholastic tennis
tournament, May 1 and ;.
A feature of the interscholastic
meet at X. u. is the classification OF
the schools into three divisions, ac-
cording to their enrolment. By this
means the small school does not have
to compete with schools clearly out OF
its class, and has an opportunity TO
win a trophy for first place.
Schools with an enrolment OF less
than 100 are in class C. schools be-
tween 100 and $50 are in class and
larger institutions are in class A.
The University Athletic association
will give a handsome trophy cup to
the winning team in each class VIM
ners of first four places In any event
will be given gold. silver and bronze
medals. The individual scoring the
highest number Of points in each class
will be given a cup. Each contestant
gets a souvenir badge, and will be
admitted free to the Kansas-Nebraska
dual track meet, which will be held
May 1.
Lawrence won first in Glass A last
year, Pratt in Class B and Onaga In
Class c.

state printer, is figuring on having one

The machine is built of steel but is

through a paste pot and is carried on
by a copper cylinder and then passes
continuously through the machine. 1t
is cut automatically as each book
leaves the machine.
1t is estimated that II the machine
be used an hour q day in a big printing
or bindery plant that it would more
than pay for itself. The three young
men behind the machine Will organize
into a company and will undertake to
manufacture these machines for sale
over the country. It is to be hoped
that the Commercial club will thor
oughly investigate the merit and need
of this machine. It would appear that
a plant installed to build these ma
chimes here in Topeka would quickly
grow to considerable proportions and
pay good dividends.
