Last year the department had de-
cided to discontinue the Fargo land
office about January LIST, the business
in that district having been about
wound up, only few acres of vacant
government lands remaining in the
extreme southern part of the district
The Grand Forks Office was discon-
tinued, and the records moved and
consolidated with Devils Lake The
records from Fargo were to be re-
moved to Bismarck.
In order that the life of the Fargo
Office might be extended for few
years, a scheme was inaugurated to
segregate three tiers of townships
from the EASTERN side of the Bismarck
land district, comprised in ranges 81,
&c and SO, reaching from township
1923 on the south to 14S on the north,
and attaching. it to the Fargo district.
This raised storm of protests from
many in the communities affected, as
it would cause settlers who had their
interests in Mcintosh and Logan
counties to travel far out of their way,
and spend from one to three days
more in transacting land business
than at present.
= The present land district extends
east as far as Darlington on the
Jamestown Northern Ry, Cleveland
on the main line of the Northern
Pacific, and nearly to Kuhn in La
Moure county, on the 500, and the
whole of Mcintosh and Logan coun-
ties, three tiers of townships in Suits
man county, all Of Wells county ex-
cepting two tiers on the north which
are in the Devils Lake district, and
one tier of townships in Foster eoun-
ty are now comprised in the Bismarck

Standard Oil company had dictated Il
the same manner: poultry, fruit and
dairy products were subject to the
same control. Reverting to the Stand
ard Oil company Mr.. Campbell de-
clared;
"Rut yesterday they issued decree
to the attorney general and the gov
ernor of Missouri that further prose-
cuIion of a suit now pending in the
court against them must be stopped
OF they will destroy the value OF bill
lions and billions of property within

1 FEW DON'Ts ABOUT EYES,

Don't think that your eyes viii "a.
ways stand abuse.
Don't use the eyes continuously al
close work without occasionally rest
Ing them by looking of into distance
Don't hold the book nearer than is
necessary for clear, sharp vision
Don't make a practice of reading
type too small to be seen readily al
eighteen inches.
Don't attempt to read in a car or
other i-llug vehicles. 1t is a severe
strain On all muscles Of the eyes
Don't read while lying down. 1t
causes an unusual strain on the ex.
ternal or directing muscles.
Don't read when sleepy or tired, as
the muscles OF the eyes should be re.
laxed in sympathy with those of the
body.
If in spite Of needing these "Don'ts"
your eyes stin cause trouble. glasses
are probably needed, and it will be to
your advantage to investigate "Krvp-
toks." In few words, they are the

In the construction Of q pump the

power enough. The larger pipe above
The cylinder makes II easier to work
% account Of reducing lriction. The
larger pipe below the cylinder viii
admit the water faster, but N It ~
Dits the water as fast a. the pump
above caa carry II away, there -
nothing to b gained In increasing its
size. Therefore. the need for . larger
pipe below depends on the amount Of
power applied, and can be determined
only by experiment. If the pump does
not deliver fast enough. and works
easily, that means that there is more
power available than is required. and,
therefore. the larger pipe above the
cylinder and possibly below, is ueces-
sary in order to secure a greater flow
of water.
The position of the cylinder does
not materially affect the rate of flow
or the ease of working. The cylinder
must not be more than twenty i've
feet, or thereab bouts, above the level OF
the water.
