FARMERS, DON'T!

Mr.. Farmer, don't insure your crop
against loss by hail in an unreliable
company. There are plenty OF irrespons-
able agents travelling through the
country just now. Look out for them
and don't be induced to sign notes
without knowing just what your
liability will be. The Northwestern
Fire 4 Marine, Incorporated under the
state laws and with headquarters at
Grand Forks, is one OF the reliable
companies that has met every loss with
prompt payments. Among it's stock
holders are such we'll known local men
as County Auditor Work, Senator W.
A. Laidlaw, NJ. L. Sullivan, W. L. Winter
and ii. ID. ALERT. For rates and other
information see the resident agents.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower, still has the
largest sale of any medicine in tho
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought OF using
anything else for indigestion and
biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration of heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to cleans
out the system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the action of
the liver stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system. and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches.

discussion Of the question at the ma
