She had not been in the best of health
for about two years, but was up and
around until about six weeks ago, when
her condition became worse and she

heart trouble and dropsy.
Deceased was born in Jugo-Slavia

the time of her death. She came to
this country shortly before her mar
riage to Jos. Stepan, which occurred at

ed at Soudan ever since.
Surviving besides her husband, are
the following children: Joseph, Jr.,
Jack, Mrs. Clara Erchul, Mrs. Julia
Collar and Miss Rose, all of Soudan;

vania, and one in Jugo-Slavia, be-
sides more distant relatives at Ely.
Funeral services will be held Satur-
day morning at the st. Martins catho-
lie church. Burial will be made in
Lakeview cemetery.

THE ARROWHEAD
FARM SUCCESS

AS tanner of the Arrowhead
country" William F. Haenke of Eveleth
has made his name well known to
agriculturistS throughout the North
west His fame, however is but an
incident OF his career, which has won
him very comfortable competence,
says the magazine Commercial West
in the Illustrated three-page article
on Mr.. Haenke'S experiences entitled
How the Modern Farmer in North
ern Minnesota is tanning the Arrow
head"
Mr.. Haenke, Milwaukee butcher,
hiked into the Eveleth country from
Duluth in 1891, intent on stalking an
iron mine claim He found no iron,
but did discover that the land was
fertile for grains, hay and root crops,
so he went alarming. He prospered,
chiefly through his dairy herd, which
he built up to membership of 100
head of high-grade GuernseyS. On
his 140-acre farm he raised all the
roughage needed for the herd, as well
as some of the concentrated feeds.
His income ranged from $1,000 to
$1,000 each year.
In 1919, when labor was scarce and
expensive, Mr.. Haenke sold his farm
for $21, 900, but the sale was just the
start of larger farming venture He
still wanted to farm it, so he travelled
through seventeen states, no more
and no less, to pick just the land
most suited to his needs. His survey
brought him back to st. Louis county,
where he bought 1000 acres of land
on State Highway No. 4.
He is now specializing in sheep and
cattle, but meanwhile is putting the
pasture land under cultivation at a
rapid rate, and is raising lot of al
falfa, potatoes and root crops. He
raises oxford sheep, and already has
produced some champion rams and
ewes. He has erected buildings worth
$4,000, and his home is thoroughly
modern, being equipped with furnace
heat, hot and cold running water and
all other conveniences.
Mr.. Haenke is blazing the way for
his neighbors too, the Commercial
West explains. Farmers nearby are
noting his success, and are pattern
ing their farms after his, breaking up
their lands as fast as they can, buying
the best breeding stock they can af-
ford and using scientific feeding
methods.
Mr.. Haenke gives credit to the ex-
cellent highway that passes his farm,
which kept open winter and sum-
mer, giving him easy access to range
markets. He also expresses thanks
for good schools, with BUSES to trans
port the children, daily mail service
and serviceable telephones.

Fire of unknown origin destroyed the
building in which Toivo Maxi con-
Quoted Of soft drink parlor opposite the
Winton postoffice early yesterday

The building had recently been re-

partment could arrive on the scene

Mr.. Maxi, who occupied rooms in the
building was forced to flee in his night

and contents, all his clothing and
what cash, amounting to over SIPS,
he had in his pockets. 1t is not learn

not.
The efforts of the fire department
coupled with the excellent work done
by the gasoline fire engine kept the
fire from spreading to nearby property.

BE SURE To VOTE
ON AMENDMENT Z

Nine major reasons are given by
leading lawyers and business men OF
Minnesota why the amendment should
be approved by the people at the No
vember election.
Minnesota is now the only state in
the Union with a constitutional pro-
vision imposing double liability upon
stock in private corporations organized
in the state excepting such as are or
ganized exclusively for manufactur-
ing and mechanical purpoSeS).
Right in this connection warning is
given that no vote is vote against
the amendment. To carry, the amend
ment must have majority of all votes
that are cast at the election. So If
a vote is cast for president and the
voter fails to mark the amendment
ballot he has in effect cast vote
against the amendment.
If the amendment is adopted the
state will be enabled to adopt cor
poration law to meet requirements of
Minnesota people who have business
to incorporate 1t will increase the
revenue of the state and keep at home
such fees as are now going outside
1t will increase county revenues, also,
through the register of deeds. 1t will
facilitate state and court supervisors
over corporations and will enable small
business concerns to incorporate locally
and receive financial support from local
investors At the same time business
incorporated in Minnesota would be on
an equality with foreign corporations;
and it would facilitate forming and
financing cooperative and other cor
porations where stock is widely dis
tributed among members. 1t would re-
move the injustice which now attends
the enforcement of the liability.

:BASKET BALL
TOURNAMENT

As can be seen by reading the min
utes of the Commercial Club meeting
held Tuesday evening, a committee
was named to try and secure the East
ern Ranges Basketball district tourna-
ment for this city. The district Is
composed of Ely, Eveleth, Virginia,
Gilbert, Biwabik, Aurora, Mountain
Iron, Tower and International Falls.
With our exceptionally fine Menu
orial gymnasium which will seat Q
thousand people very comfortably and
our excellent hotel and transporta-
ton facilities, the Club and business
men of the city are under, the impress
sion that the tournament can be han
died in this city with both pleasure
and profit. The tournament is held
in March and committee was named
to attend the district meeting and In
duce the directors to hold the event
in this city.
It will also be noted that the Club
went on record as opposed to the pas
sage of the Gas Tax Amendment. In
another place in this paper will be
found stories pertaining to both sides
of the argument.
The fish hatchery subject again
came up for discussion and it was de-
cided to take the subject to the State
Game and Fish Commission and also
secure data as to the cost of main-
tanning such an institution. A COM
nnittee also was named for this pur-
pose.
A committee was also named to take
up the subject of maintaining certain
portages in the vicinity for the use
Of the public. Several Of these have
been placarded with notices of prt-
vate property and canoe route travellers
are put to much Inconvenience.

Der and was recalled by vigorous ap-
plause. He responded with another Of
his well given selections. Mrs. Nanker-
Wis played the accompaniment.
Miss Forbes of the High School
faculty gave two readings. This was
Miss Forbes first appearance before
an Ely audience and to say that she
made hit would be putting 1t mildly.
Mrs. B. o. Strachan concluded tho
program with one of her well render
ed vocal solos and was forced to re-
spond with an encore. Mrs. Suther-
land accompanied Mrs. Strachan ct
the piano.

ELY ELEVEN TAKES
AURORA BYE-bYE

The High School football team re-
turned from Aurora Saturday even
ing with the scalp of the team of that
city dangling at its belt.
From all accounts the Ely boys put
up an excellent battle and won out
by a score of 7 to O. Judging by the
score the Aurora boys also did some
playing and held the hard fighting
Elyites to the figure indicated.
The Ely team has so far this sea-
son, won three of the four games
played. Their loss was one game to
Eveleth. The team is second in the
range conference games and is only

GIRL SCOUTS WILL PRESENT
INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM

A Girl Scout international Program
in the form of ballads and old folk
tunes will be presented under the aus
pieces of the Ely Girl Scout Council
November 1, at two performances, 4:3O
and 7:30.
For the occasion the music room OF
the High School has been obtained and
a good crowd of interested people is
expected Tickets are now being sold
and if any one Is not reached just
call the scout office and tickets will
be brought to you by scout. Children
may come only to the afternoon per-
Torrance, Cat 4:30), but adults my
come either at that time or in the
evening.
Such a program has never been pre-
sented in Ely, before, the purpose OF
such is to commemorate the birthday
of the founder of the Girl Scout or
ganization, Juliet Low, and attempt
to carry on the type of thing she
would have enjoyed having as part
of the program. Her chief aim in
life was to see scouting carried into
the lands across the sea, and before
her death, this dream was in part,
realized.
This program, which Miss Marjorie
Edgar the ballad and folk-tune special
list is preparing, helps carry out the
ideals of girl scouting and demonstrate
the many fine things for which the
movement stands. It is hoped that all
of the people in Ely, who are inter-
ested in authentic tunes, and old bal
lads of an almost forgotten past will
make every effort to attend and give
the support necessary to put this be-
fore the public. AS many Scouts as
possible will be used and we are sure
that every parent Of a Girl Scout and
all Of our many friends will want to
see and hear this program.
Remember the Date, Thursday, No
vember 1, at 4:30 or 1880, Music Room,
Memorial High.
