The Peck ranch of 840 acres, lying 6 miles south of Geyser, was sold re- cently to a Nebraska man who ex- pects to bring his family , out next spring and settle on the place. W. B. Peck of Stanford was the -owner and for several years the place has not been occupied, altho the ranch contains some fine land. The sale was made through the agency of C. E. Shoe- maker & Co. The price reported was $27 per acre. The beautiful weather of the past two weeks has been favorable for all kinds outdoor work and farmers as, well as townspeople have taken full , advantage of it. Threshing is pro- gressing on all sides, and those who have no threshing are hard at work breaking new ground, for though it is now close to November the ground is said to be in fine shape for breaking. The fine weather during the past ! I month insures a larger acreage of grain than was anticipated for the coming season. Messrs. Piper & Kemp, who last year bought 500 acres of land two miles east of Geyser, along the railroad, finished threshing last week and report an average yield of over 27 bushels per acre on a field of 232 acres oi winter wheat On 40 acres of this field 423/a bushels per acre was the average. They also had 14 acres of oats that made 60 bushels per acre and eight acres of barley from whicl? they received an average of 40 bushels. They consider these yields quite satis- factory for new ground, and show I what good farming will do on Ihe I 'bench lands in this vicinity. New Buildings Started. The good crops of the present sea - on and the general activity in the real estate market in this vicinity has caused a rush in the building line. During the past week several new buildings have been started in town and there are prospects of quite a number of others in the near future. Chas. R. Johnson started the erection of a building which he will use for a clothing Store, on his lot a few feet south of the, First State Bank. Mr. Johnson has been in the clothing busi- ness ever since the town was started, having been the manager of the firm of C. R. Johnson & Co., a branch of Jensen, Warde & Lloyd of Great Falls. The new store will be run by Mr. Johnson in connection with the old one until some other disposition is made of the C. R. Johnson & Co. stock. Other buildings started are the new meat market which is being built by H. B. Thompson on the opposite side of the street from C. R. Johnson's. Mr. Thompson has been delayed for a day or two on account of the lack of cement in town, but he expects to rush the work and will be selling meat in about two weeks, he thinks. He will then go ahead with the ice house. Work on the homes of E. G. Mork - holm and Harry Tollotson are also progressing. Mr. Tollotson's house will be in the southwest portion of the townsite and Name Rumor has it that when the house is ready Harry will take for a bride one of the popular young ladies of this vicinity.

McAnelly, has been the .incumbent of the office of county superintendent for the past term, and as this office supports no deputy, she has had every department of the work to attend to, and has be- come thoroughly acquainted with the office work as well as the work of looking after the schools in the country districts. The duties of county superintendent are many and varied. She must create school districts, change and correct boundaries, apportion and transfer school moneys, see tiiat the census is correctly taken . in each district, con- duct teachers' and pupils' examinations, supervise the work in country schools, and attend to many minor ditties. All of this work lutist be learned before it can be well done, and it requires ex- perience in the office as well as teach- ing in the different grades. Ni iss McAnelly has lived in Cascade county for fifteen years and is a tax- payer in the county. She has taught nine years in the Belt schools, and three years in the city of Great Falls. She holds a professional certificate.
