Among the building enterprises for
Williston this summer will be the erec-
ton of an addition to the present
high school building, to cost about
$4,000, provided bonds for $1,000
are authorized by the voters of the
city at special election which has
been called for March 81. Due to
over-crowded rooms and a constantly
increasing enrolment, additional facil-
tiles are imperative for the coming
year. After careful consideration Of
conditions the school board has made
the announcement that it's members
believe the erection of a permanent
structure, similar in style to the pres
ent high school building, on the south
side of the main building will be the
most economical method of meeting
the demands for more room.

M. M. Merrill of Grand Forks re-
turned from trip in the western part
of the state after having been stalled
on the Dunseith branch of the Great
Northern with a party Of travelling
men at Rolette since last Wednesday.
With Mr.. Merrill were S. Olson of

raj extension department of the Great
Northern. and E. F. Johnson of Mime
apolis. "The snow filled the cuts to
the top of the smokestack of the en-

tried to buck the drifts, but only got
stuck more firmly. The snow must
have been from Is to 18 feet deep,
and there was a terrible storm rag

heard loud breathing inside and thot
that something must be wrong with
Mr.. Johnson. Noise from rafting the
door did not arouse him and the door
was forced open. Mr.. johnson was

Considerable Land Will Be Disced.

A good many farmers tell the Inde-
pendent that they will disc much Of
their land this year before seeding.
They got little blowing done last year
and feel that unless they do this, they
will not be able to put in big crop.
Some years, disced land grows a good
crop, but it is often an unfortunate
way to do. Before discing, the stub
BILE will be burned, which will destroy
many of the foul weed seeds. This
will be a good year to pillow good wide
fire breaks, for the grain was all cut
very high.
