ARNOLD'S SON
 NOW OFFICER
Cousin of Sidney Anderson Second Lieutenant in Regular
 Army

Lawrence Arnold, son of M. A. Ar mold, president of the First National bank of Seattle, and a cousin to Sid ney Anderson, vice president of the Bank of Seward, has been commits stoned a second lieutenant in the reg ular army, according to word received by Anderson. Young Arnold was one of sixty out of 2500 students at an eastern reserve training camp to get a regular army commission.
 Arnold was a member of the Cor nell contingent at the camp, a great many upper class men at the Ithaca institution having entered the officers school. Others in the camp who did not make the regular army were in line for appointment in the officers re- serve corps.
 Many who failed to pass the exam ination for commission as second lieu tenant in the regular army were later made first lieutenantsand even cap tains in the reserves, according to Ar mold. He considers himself very for tunate in getting into the regular army where he will have experienced officers over him, and men under him who joined the army more of their own will than because of necessity.

 To Be Trained
War Department Provides Training for Men of Transport and
 Supply Corps

A quartermaster's corps training camp is soon to be established About 3,200 officers from the officers train ing camps now in operation will be sent to the new camp for additional training in work for the quartermas- ter's corps. The camp will also ac- commodate from 10000 to 10000 en- listed men, to be formed into quarter master corps units.
 A staff of instructors will be re- quired, and assistant instructors will be drawn from noncommissioned off cers already in the service.
 The camp will be used for the for nation of special and technical units such as motor companies, wagon com panies, stevedore regiments, labor companies, supply companies, repair shops, salvage shops, etc.
 The camp buildings will follow the cantonment plans with such variations as special work will call for.
 Several sites are under considera- tion and announcement of choice will probably be made soon. A tract of something like 1000 acres will be re- quired.
 The office of the qaurtermaster gen eral states that no applications for appointment to the qaurtermaster's reserve corps made since April 12 are being considered. Only those sent from the officers training camps are elgi- ble to become student officers at the quartermaster's corps training camp.

She will teach in the Mankato schools
the coming year.
Atty. Hookway Of Granville was in
the city on business yesterday. He
says the light soil around Granville
produced some excellent crops this
year. This soil appears to have held
the moisture better than the heavier
soil which cracked, allowing the mois-
ture to evaporate.
J. E. Elsberry of Towner was in the
city the first of the week. Mr.. Els
berry owns the old Talmadge ranch
near Towner and has begun cutting
mammoth hay crop. He puts up
in the neighborhood Of 800 tons Of
| hay each year which will represent an
enormous sum this season.
S. N. Yoder, the Surrey stock buyer,
was in Minot yesterday. He shipped
two cars Of stock last week, which he
bought in the Surrey country and he
| is shipping another car this week. Mr..
Yoder received from five to seven and
half cents pound for the cattle in
st. Paul, the price being lower than
some time back.
Chas. G. Northrup of Mankato,
! Mimi, arrived for a visit with his
son, Marvin, who is in charge of the
Smith Typewriter Co.'s Minot office.
Marvin and a brother at Grand Forks
have been drawn in the selective draft
and their father wished to visit them
before they were called to the colors.
Mr.. Northrup is a son-in-law Of Mrs.
Markham Of this city and it had been
twelve years since he last visited
Minot.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Brones of Dom
nybrook, were visitors at the F. H.
Cook home near Logan Sunday. MIR.
and Mrs. Robert Blowers of Lansford,
spent several days at the Cook farm
They were old time neighbors in Iowa.
The Cook farm looks prosperous with
it's big herd of Holstein cows. The
cream is marketed in Minot, an eight
gallon can bringing over ten dollars.
Mr.. Cooks corn appears good and he
believes he will be able to fill his silo.
C. ]. Bartz, from southwest Of the
city, was in town Saturday. He has a
field of rye which he began cutting
Monday, which will average eight or
ten bushels per acre. He said that
many farmers VINO nave never TdlSeu
rye, will SOW it this year and those
who have been growing their crop will
increase the acreage. Rye made a
wonderful record this year, surprising
everyone. The crop filled we'll despite
the fact that very little rain fell. This
| is a good crop to clean up the land, it
requires little work to seed it, and it
is out of the way early in the season,
being an almost certain crop for this
country. Besides, it is worth in the
neighborhood of couple of dollars a

statements while giving an address
at Bowman, N. D., has been held to
federal district court at Bismarck, in
October. She is charged under the
act of June Is, 1917 and it was charg-

her that she stated that the men OF
the u. S. army are only fit for fer
tilizer and to American mothers, who
would not resist the draft as no better
than brood sows.
Mrs. O'Hare denies that this is the
language that she used. Her bond
was placed at $1,000 and DR.. E. G.
Stucks of Garrison was arranging for
the necessary bonds. Mrs. O'Hare's

says that the early wheat has filled

get. Many farmers have invested in
