Stevens & Co., contractors for the ditch, and as proof of its truth he says he was never a fisherman. Some of the fish, he says, weigh as much as seven pounds, while few weigh less thdn three pounds.

Being a pedagogue and a farmer at one and the same time has been successfully demonstrated by J. C. McGhee, who has a fine 'farm in the town of Eckles, ten miles north- west of Bemidji, and who, is also the principal of the =scnools at Ten- strike. Mr. McGhee has had charge of the Tenstrike schools for the past three years and has tilled his farm at the same time. He makes Bemidji his = trading point, and markets his produce here. An in- dication of his success as a farmer ig illustrated in the fact that from one acre planted to potatoes, last year, Mr. McGhee realized $50 ‘in cash from selling potatoes and the potatoes for home consumption alone paid for the cost of planting and cultivating.
