A STATE FARMERS' INSTITUTE.
Will be Held at the Court House In
Little Falls, MIMI, on Friday and
Saturday January II and is.

This is Il meeting in which every
body is interested, because there is
no question of such vital Importance
to the business interests of the
country as agriculture. Everything
depends on the productions Of the
soil.
The fact that prices are low and
profits are very small in almost
every line, is what calls for better
methods and more skilIful practices
to'enablc us to compete with con-
ditions before us. The Farmers
Institute is the medium through
which Improvement, skill and enter
prise, can prepare us to meet the
emergencies OF the times.
ThcInstitute instructors are those
who haveifaced the difficulties; they
nave overcome the ObstructiOns
that so often meet us at every turn,
and are therefore able to render u.s.
sistance to the DISCOURAGED, give
valuable advice to thOSe seeking
information and put up the danger
signals for the venturesOme; SO that
our agricultural methods will he i'm
proved to the degree that all other
branches OF business are at the
present day.
There is no virtue in stopping to
howl as we only receive the echo.
but by pushing ahead consistently
with a purpose to win, liz the only
way out of the difficulties that now
confront us. q,
Attend tho institute and see II you
can't get help.

illness in this country arises from a de-
ranged condition of the liver. The
sufferer may be designated by sallow
complexion, that in many instances is
lassitude, loss of appetite, an empty feel
ing of the stomach, even after full meal;
sleepless nights, nervousness, bad breath,
lack of energy and all these troubles con-
tinue to grow worse from day to day,
until his system becomes SO Impoverished
that he is overcome by some fever, or
what under ordinary circumstances would
be mild cold and death rapidly follows.

EDITOR TRANsCRIPT-I have just
returned from a trip to MY OLD home
in Iowa, where was called by the
serious illness o. my father. who is
some better; and II you have space
in your valuable paper to spare l
should like to talk to some ot the
farmers of Morrison county who are
\ dissa tisfied with their present lOca-
ton. and contemplate a change.
Now l left Sioux City, the county
seat Of Woodbury. county, Iowa,
eight years ago. There was ut that
time a great boom, and the city had
in '92 II population Of $4,000. and
farming land was worth $50 to $50
per acre, but the panic has caused
almost every laboring man that had
bought his own home to lose his job
and also all he had invested In his
home, and now the population has
decreased to less than $4,000. AMI a
12-room house can be rented for -
per month. Now the country around
this city is considered the richest In
the world, and there has been no
decrease In the price Of land, but here
IA the trouble. The tax ON this valu-
alton with the low prices of produce
and losses by hog cholera and Scent
beef has placed a mortgage on the
land so large that to pay the interest
is their only hope, and there are now
a great manv men that are renters
that owned their farms eight years
ago. What would Morrison cOun-
ty man say ii he had to nay $3 per
acre cash rent? Still we get $50 per
acre for our wheat and the Iowa
farmer only 81 for his corn. AS they
had failure of crops last year the
most IF the renters had to sell or
mortgage part Of their stock to pay
their rent. I travelled about twenty
miles in the country where the fences
are piled over with the Russian this
tie. which can only be exterminated
at cost of from 800 to 500" on Il
100 acre farm. Oats are worth l0
cents, corr IL, barley and rye IA to l6,
wood $3.50 to rs per cord, dressed
pork and beef cents.
Now, to the labOring man [ want
to say that a job in Iowa for your
board in the winter is enough, or at
least all you can get, and to the
farmer that has a fOot-hOld In Nor
rison county, keep it, for the eyes OF
many people are on this state, and
there will soon be such h rush to the
shelter of our timber and the light
of this city that the man who
wastes his time running down South
to live like a "Nigger," or goes west
to face the blizzard, will get left cut
in the cold. Minnesota is good
enough for me.

DEAR EXPERIENCE
Two Boyo Ran Away From the
OrphanaQe Monday and
One Froze Hio Feet.

Two boys named John Rock and
James Lemon. aged IL and 10 years,
respectively. ran away from st.
Otto's orphanage Monday, and
from their appearance when they
were brought back Tuesday, they
will hardly try it again. This ia the
second time that these two boys
have attempted to get away from
this institution and their actions are
hard to explain. About three
months ago they ran away and
were caught near Koyalton and were
in a half starved state when fonnd.
They even Jared worse In their
second attempt. They left here
yesterday forenoon and walked all
the way to Swanville, a distance Of
eighteen miles, and when they ar
rived there some time last night, it
was found that Lennon. the young
est, had quite badly frozen both his
feet.
The Sisters in charge Of. the or
phanage reported the escape OF the
boys to the police of this city, who
sent word to all points near this
place, and the result was that they
were intercepted ut Swanville. They
were sent back tn this city Tuesday.
The little fellow that had his feet
frozen exhibited wonderful courage
for a lad of his age. His feet and
legs were quite badly swollen and
he had to be carried from the cars.
He must have been suffering consid-
cradle pain, but he did notcomplain,
and when some one asked him his
name he smilingly answered that it
was "Jim" Lennon. The boys were
comfortably dressed, but were not
sufficiently provided for a trip like
the one they took.
Their desire to escape can only be
attributed to desire for adventure,
for the children of that institution
are all comfortably clad, well fed,
and have good care generally.

high standing in his chosen. profession.
Years ago, recognizing the value OF the
most modern and most thorough methods
in the treatment OF human ills, and appre-
ciating the fact that a wider and better
established field for the study of such con-
ditions could be met with in Europe than
in this country, he early in his profcsslona!
career became one of the colony OF enthu-
siastic Americans who sought to learn
many things that were denied them in
their own land.
Always thorough student, Dr. Cooks
enthusiasm led him to MAKE study of
the best methods of the more prominent
and successful hospitals that are found in
Germany, france and Austria. His re-
searches and determination to learn all
that could be learned, pursued under par
ticuiarly favorable circumstances, opened
to him opportunities for improving his
medical skin that have been accorded to
few American physicians, and this thor
ough course of scientific and intellectual
discipline has fitted him more thoroughly
for treating the maladies WHICH he makes

the United States to-day.
DR.. Cook is first of all specialist, and
will strictly confne his practice to dis
eases and ailments that. will properly
come under that definition. and. unlike
many interruptions practitioners, his
practice will not include the. treating
of ali ailments, although perfectly able to
do so; but his hfework is the treatment
and cure OF all sexual diseases of men and
women, and Of all diseases, in their vari-
Gus and complicated forms, that arise
from or originate in disordered sexual
system. He has investigated further into
the mysterious secrets of such ailments
than any other practitioner alive. and is
recognized throughout the East and
Europe as the greatest living authority oD
diseases OF which he makes speciality.
DR.. Cook has decided to locate in this
City and has selected and furnished
handsome offices in central loca-
uion-S65 Market street-and from now
on will be found there daily, doing
his best to alleviate the sufferings
of all whose Affections come within
the scope OF his practice. Very sensibiy,
and rightly, too, the doctor has deter
mined that every patient who calls at his
office will receive his personal attention.

perhaps, but none the less dangerous.
