The fourth death from diphtheria In
the family Of August Klose, residing
four miles south Of the city, occurred
Tuesday. Sunday one Of the child
ran died and Monday two. The mother
and three other children are now down
with the disease. The father and the
baby are the only ones not sick. 1t is
supposed the disease was brought to
the family by immigrants that stopped
at the home for several days while on
their way through this part of the state.
Dr. Wink is in charge of the case and is
dong all possible to be done. The great
need is for nurse. The statement has
been made that the family is IN need
of financial aid. This is erroneous. II
anything like that Is needed the friends
Of the family will gladly furnish any and
all things desired. But nurse 10

communicate with anyone desiring to
act as nurse. Chas. Klose, a brother, is

SCHOOL AFFAIRS.
Nominations Being Made for
Members of the Board of
Education.

At the coming school election, soon to
be voted upon to succeed President
Geo. Lutz, Mrs. H. E. White and A.
Steel whose terms then expire. Mr..
Lutz has served for eight years contiru-
ously and now desires a respite. He has
given freely and generously OF his time
IN the interests of education and now
considers that he should be given rest.
There is no compensation attached to
the Office and the many exactinR duties
render the position anything but a
sinecule. Mr.. Steele is just finishing
his first term-three years-during all OF
which time he has been the treasurer
and custodian Of the school funds. BY
his capable and judicious management
of the funds he has devised means by
which the board has reduced the bonded
indebtedness Of the district $4,000, and
this without any increase in the levy.
The pay of the teachers has
been prompt and cash at all times.
A petition was in circulation
today nominating Mr.. Steele for reelec-
ticn on the board to succeed himself.
The term OF office Of Mrs. 81. E. White.
one of the most efficient members of the
board, also expires this spring and many
residents were today signing petition
nominating her for re election. Her ser
vices oE the board have covered period
Of three yeers, during which time she
has devoted much time and most con-
soientious work for the benefit Of the
schools in which she takes great deal Of
interest. Whether in committee work
the most arduous and dlficult-or in the
general work Of the board, she has been
generous Of her abilities and,it is believed,
has given only satisfaction.
A petition nominating Mrs. T..
F. Branch for the position
OF member OF tho board is now in circu.
lation and, it il believed, is quite numer-
ously signed.

that your blood is impure, and without
doubt there has been too much over
work and strain on mind and body.
The course of treatment for such con-

must first be purified so that the ner-
veous system, and in fact all of the Or
gans will be fed upon pure blood. In

to the Red river valley, comprising the
prlnoiple growing section, says the
weekly report Of the state crop service.
At some points rain has occurred nightly,
and at others it has rained at least three
days during the week, rendering it very
difficult to do any seeding on high
ground, and the low lands have become
go badly flooded that seeding is impossl-
BILE, and in consequence operations have
been practically suspended until the
land can become dry enough to work.
The most discouraging reports came
from the extreme northeastern counties,
where tbs season will be at least four
weeks behind that of last year.
Over the southeastern counties the
outlook is more favorable. What seed
was sown previous to last week Is up in
nearly all sections, and is looking we'll,
and pastures growing nicely. In the
central counties less rain has fallen, and
in consequence the ground has been in
good condition to work and seeding is
practically completed in most sections,
and will be completed this week IN
others with continuance OF favorable
weather. There has been scarcity Ut
rain over the western counties, and the
ground is somewhat dry and hard.
Crops which have been put IN are up
and looking we'll. Where seeding OF
wheat is completed ground is being
broken for oats, fax and millet.
The wet weather has seriously delayed
farming operations in the Red river val
ley. A recent report from Cass and
Trsill counties is that only about % per
cent of the cultivated land has been
seeded. Some of the land will not be in
condition to work for ten days. A heavy
rain storm, accompanied by hail, passed
over Casselton last night.
