Following his graduation from Mankato Normal School, he taught for several years in the schools of Minnesota.

He later engaged in the banking business in Donnybrook where he resided for ten years, when he moved to western North Dakota, locating first at Bentley. In addition to his banking interests at Bentley, Mr. Botten opened a hardware store and implement business. In 1920 he moved to Carson where he became cashier of the First State Bank, a position he held until the First Bank became affiliated with the Northwest Bank corporation about two years ago. Sice that time he has been active head of the Botten Motor Company.
Mr. Botten was a member of the Scandinavian Lutheran Church and was a member of the Knights of Pythias and A O U W lodges.
