OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS w BELTRAMI COUNTY’S REPUTATION 1t is fully realized in Beltrami county that the prosperity of | each individual farmer is so intimately interwoven with the well-being of the whole community that every business man in‘ every town in the county is standing back of this land clearing project. A farmer can borrow money at any bank in the coun- ty with which to buy dynamite, the only stipulation being that he use it on the land. In the boom logging days many towns prospered even though the settlers were having rough sledding but the day is come when money, if it be spent at the ]ocal“ stores, deposited in the banks and paid in taxes for upkeep of| roads and schools must come out of the land. | Good roads and good consolidated schools are already es- tablished, hardy, courageous and intelligent settlers are dwell-| ing on the land, but they need to be shown what can be done to place their enterprise on a paying basis and how to do it. In the 30 miles between Bemidji and Blackduck one sees many| fields of stumps already drilled, ready for powder, others where | the blast has splintered the stumns and they await the tractor, puller or maybe the capstan and horse. In other cases the land clegred is already in small grain, generally oats, or if wet, in alsike, Last year’s clearing, after its crop of small grain, is in| potatoes. Here and there above the trees one sees the shining ventilators of a barn and visualizes dairy cows, Clover fields are abundant on these farms, and the homes are taking on some 1920, this County Board granted a peti- tion for the formation of & new school district out of District No. 8, and did not apportion the funds proportionate to the assessed valuation of each district. Now Therefore Be It Resolved, by this County Board that the moneys, funds and credits of the said two districts be, and the same are hereby divided by the two school districts in proportion to the assessed valuation of the real and per- sonal property of the said districts as assessed and equalized for the year, 1920, which is as follows: School Dis dict No. 8, $32,481. School District N 33, $35,525, nd that the sald school District No. 8 have and receive 47 per cent of such moneys, funds and cred- itd and that school district No. 33 have and receive 53 per cent thereof.
