To Parents ofDeaf Children.

j. N. Tate, superintendent of the
school for the deaf at Faribault,
Mimi. has issued the following circu-
lar to parents. Those having deaf
children should note carefully the
contents. The circular reads in part:
1T is true there are perhaps 200
deaf children in the state who have
not been sent to school. They can
get little or no benefit from attend
ing schools for hearing children.
This is an absolutely free school
to all deaf children in Minnesota.
The only expense the parents incur is
the railroad fares to and from school
and the cost of the clothing for the
child and few cents for postage and
stationery.
sl''If they are not able to do this, the
law provides that the county may
assist them. They can get this HELP
by applying to the Probate Judge
who will see that such necessary ex
penses are paid.
''Thc school opens in September
and for full instructions as to how
pupils are admitted, will be furnished
upon application to the superintend
ent at Faribault, MINI.

Many Settlers.

About sixty of our people compose
a party who have settled lands in the
Little Fork country on the line of the
Duluth, Virginia & Rainy Lake
route. The party have formed a
colony and will farm. The tract of
land they have secured under the
homestead laws is one of the most
fertile in the northwest. There is
not particle of doubt bat what the
move is a good one and many more
are thinking OF availing themselves
of the opportunities to secure good
agricultural lands at a nominal cost.

Great is Texas. Just think

1t is yet undeveloped and we
are now calling on the ''man

us do it. We want immigration.
We have homes for thousands

as productive as any on earth,
water that us as pure as the
River of Life and climate
equal to any in the world. Land
can be purchased at from 81 to

with forty years time. with
terms of this kind we can see
why a man will pay rents in
Missouri, Illinois and Kansas.
The first crop in this country
will pay for the land. What
other men who own land here
have done can be done over
again by an enterprising, ener'
getic tiller of the soil. Besides
the state school lands, each al
ternate section in this country
is railroad land and this land
can be bought at from 50 to So
per acre on very reasonable
terms. There are also many IN
dividual claims that can be pur-
chased at a small figure. Taking
all in all there is no new coun-
try today where the original
settler will have such advan-
tages as are offered right here

RANDALL COUNTY ASUMMER
RESORT.

In the nearby future the News
will attempt an exhaustive de-
scription of Randall county-Its
location, soil and products and
the special advantages it has to
offer the home builder. For the
purpose Of this article, however,
the News will contine itself to
the subject announced-Randall
county as a Summer Resort.
OF the Plains it has been well
said that no country on earth
can surpass it's summers. With
an elevation of over $500 feet
above sea level, we are clear
above the natural breeding
grounds of malarial disorders
and this fact taken in connection
with the mild and pleasant eli.
matte conditions, continuing as
they do, through the summer
and late into the fall months,
presents to the sufferer, especial
ly from lung troubles, a natural
sanitarium. 1t is here on the
Plains that we get that high dry
atmosphere, so highly recon-
mended by physicians,' which
creates an appetite to eat and
sleep-natures own medicine,
and in very many cases the most
effective for the run down hu-
man body Indeed, the dwell
erS on the Plains may we'll say,
and tell the truth, that they are
exempt from many of the com
mon bodily ills that effect less
favored mortals.
Randall, is only one of sever
al counties, which form this
great plateau called the Staked
Plains. In it's general features
prairie it resembles the 9th
ers; it's distinctive characteris-
tics being its running streams
of clear, pure and health giving
waters and its scenic Canyons.
What the News has here said
relative to general health giving
conditions applies with equal
force to neighbor counties--it
would not knowingly, detract
from one Of them-but possess,
ING those common to all, it has
, vet others uncommon, and tC
, these others it would now at
tract attention. 1t is a well
recognized fact that too much
sameness tires the eye and
through it the mind. Thus, al
| level prairie, everywhere the
same, is not near so pleasing as
: the same country would be i
5 interspersed with beautlfu
, streams and here and there liv
! ing reminders of northern ano
eastern forests. Such we tint
e in Randall county, and then he
t Canyons! But why attempt u
describe these wonders, OF Ma
, ture's handiwork, when a ia
t more eloquent pen than the New
: man can WELD has alread
drawn the picture and done
=, we'll. This, our readers ca
n i nd in special edition OF tn
