statement is not an indication of the
financial condition &C the state, for
the reason that until the valuation of

fixed, it will be impossible to tell just
how the state is coming out at the
end of lne biennium. AS soon as the
state board of equalization does this,
then it will be possible to tell just
where the state is from a financial
standpoint.
The report shows that the perma.

How Jack London Works.

Jack Lond0n's new novel, THE Sea-
Wolf" which began with the new year
in the Century, intensifies interest in
this remarkable young writer. Mr.,
London is authority for the statement
that he does his work the first thing
in the morning, right after breakfast,
averaging a thousand words a day,
five days in the week. When pushed,
he has written over a thousand words
daily for many weeks at a stretch;
and has occasionally accomplished
two thousand words every day for two
weeks. He writes slowly, making few
changes in his first draft. At the end
of each day he typewrites what he has
written, and this is the. completed
manuscript.

MANY Farmers Movinq.

HUMBOLDT-Ther is quite an eX,
odus of farmers from this section, ow.
ing to the arrival of the month of
March. Those who are leaving the
county invariably make for the west
ern part of the state, where it is their
belief they can be more successful in
farming. While this county has been
favored with good crops for several
years, the high price of land and con.
sequent high rate of rent made it diff,
cult for the average renter to get
ahead, and he is consequently going in
search of a section where dirt is not
so high.

They are new discovery. specific
for all diseases of the Kidneys and

Gus forms of the diseases of the Kid

the region of the Kidneys, foul-smell-
ing urine and cloudy or thickened con-
dition of the urine, discharges of pus
or corruption. Gout, Rheumatism, In
flammation and Congestion of the Kid
neys and all kindred complaints" :"
Continuing he says:
81 could mention many cases in
which l have prescribed Dodd's Kid
ney Pills with success. For instance,
Mr.. Robert Weeks, farmer, malaria,
haematuria or swamp fever three
times, kidneys weakened, continual
pain and soreness in back, which
made him very nervous, had a little
fever and sometimes chilly. Urine
changeable, but generally very high

about six weeks he was entirely
cured and had gained fifteen pounds

WESTERN cANADAs RESOURCES
EARNING Very saecessfuI.

nv Western or Northwest Canada ls'
usually meant the great Agricultural
country west of Ontario, and nortn OIL
Minnesota. North Dakota, ana Mo"-
tana. Part of It is agricultural PRAIRIE
treeress in places, park like in others
part is genuine plains, well adapted ~
cattle ranches; part requires 1rrlga-
tfon for successful tillage, most OF II
does not. The political divisions OIL
this region are the Province on Mani
toba and the territorial district OF AS
siniboia, Saskatchewan, Alberta and
Athabaska. At present. however, the
latter is too remote for immediate
practical purposes.
The general character OF the soil or
Western Canada is rich, black, clay
loan with clay subsoil. Such soil
is particularly rich in food for the
wheat plant. The subsoif Is clay,
which retains the winter frost until 1t
is thawed out by the warm rays or
the sun and drawn upward to stimu-
late the growth Of the young wheat, SO
that even in dry seasons wheat is
good crop. The clay soil also retains
the heat of the sun later in the sum-
mer and assists in the early ripening
of the grain. II is claimed that cul-
tivation has the effect of increasing
the temperature of the soil several
degrees, as well as the air above it.
Western Canada climate Is good
cold in winter, hot in summer, but
with cool nights. Violent storms of
any kind are rare The rainfall is not
heavy. 1t varies with places, but aver
ages about II inches. 1t falls usually
at the time the growing crops need it

That agriculture in Western Canada

AT Ine present Lille own sixteen
hundred acres of land, fifty horses and
a large pasture fenced containing a
thousand acres. These horses run out

Conway, farmer, who attained the
age of 113 years. The father of
James Conway did not die so young,
for his years were six score and six
that is. 1876 The grandfather's final
age was $50 years These statistics
are the less unlikely because in the
same county an old man died not
long ago who was proved TO have at

and plenty OF it, for | had broken
down from overwork and was so weak
| could not sit up over one hour at a

less | secured food I could easily di'
gest and that would supply the great
est amount of nOurishment.
"One day l obtained permission to
go through the pantry and see what |
could find. Among other things l
came across a package of Grape-Nuts
which l had heard of but never tried.
| read the description on the package
and become deeply interested, so then
and there l got a saucer and some
cream and tried the famous food.
1T tasted delicious to me and
seemed to freshen and strengthen me
greatly so l stipulated that Grape
Nuts and cream be provided each day
instead of other food, and | literally
lived on Grape-Nuts and cream for
two or three months.
IF you could have seen how fast l
got we'll it would have pleased and
surprised you. | am now perfectly
well and strong again and know ex-
actly how l got well and that was on

Early Settlers to Hold Meeting Next

Summer
HUMBOLDT-An interesting and
important movement was started here
when a half dozen of the pioneers of
this place got together and planned
to have some sort Of a gathering the
coming summer. to be arranged and
participated in by those who settled
in the Wilderness Of Nebraska a half
century ago IN 1854. The intention at
present is to form an organization, to
which shall be eligible for member
ship all residents of southeastern Ne
braSka who have lived in the state
since the year mentioned above, and
it is urged that all who are entitled
to participate will communicate at an
early date with H. P. Marble of this
city, sending facts regarding their set
tlement in the state. Among the
prime movers in the matter is Samuel
B. Bobst of this city, who settled with
his parents near the west line of the
county on April 20. 1854. and is believ-
ed to be among the first settlers of
the state. His father, Christian Bobst,
was the first probate judge of Rich

tended from the Missouri river on the
