Soren Rasmussen of Carpio, N
D., and Hiram Gibbs of Grand
Forks are in the city.
Judge Chas. Smith of Superior
stopped in the city over night, pro-
ceding to Ellsworth this morning
where he delivers the memorial ad.
dress. He is accompanied by his
wife.
Will take in a limited number OF
young cattle to pasture for the sea-
son on the old Dunbar place in Sec
ton 20 of Clifton township, about
half way between River Falls and
Prescott; tame grass, plenty of wat
er. Inquire of Hans Olson on the
place.
Ilwaco Springs, the romantic
summer resort on the shores of
Lake ST. Croix, owned by Mrs.
Sarah Tozer and Miss Julia A.
Morse, have been rented to Mrs.
Matte Tozer of Spooner. Mrs.
Tozer writes that she will not be
able to be here to take charge of
the resort for couple of weeks but
the cottages are ready for occupancy
and may be rented at any time by
application to Mrs. Sarah Tozer of
this city.
Can farm renter be made liable
for damages if he permits noxious
weeds to mature on the land? This
is question the Iowa supreme court
is called upon to settle. A rented a
240 acre farm of B who sued A for
81, 800 damages A is alleged to have
caused by letting cockleburs go to
seed. The renter won in the dis
trict court and B appealed to the su-
preme court. If the case is finally
decided in BIS favor it will be decid-
eddy interesting to renters of farms
in general.
AT meeting of the members of
l. N. Nichols Post, G. A. r. and w.
R. c. last Sunday it was determined
10 hold the preliminary exercises of
Memorial day in Opera Hall. This
conclusion was arrived at because
of the weather. 1t was thought it
would be too cold to hold protract-
ed meeting in the cemetery. The
exercises attending the decorating
services will be held in Greenwood
Cemetery, as a matter of course.
After the exercises at Opera Hall
are concluded line of parade will
be formed, marching to the Gene
terry.
The flag pole was successfully
raised Monday afternoon in the pres
ence of a large crowd of spectators,
workmen and bosses. The pole is
set in the ground to the depth of
eight feet, the setting made perina-
nent by grout-cement and broken
stone. While setting up the
"shears," tinbers over which the
rope hosting the pole runs, an acct
dent occurred but without serious
injury to any one although D. w.
Kline had close call. When the
tops of these timbers were raised
about ten feet the foot of one of
them slipped letting the timber
down, grazing the head of Mr.. Kline,
and slightly bruising it.

WANT A SYRINGE?

OF course every we'll regulated
household wants one. But there
are syringes and syringes--
those that don't work and those
that do. If you care for the first
we haven't them: if you want
the last, the kind that work we'll
and always work, we have them.

The marriage of E. H. Paulson and
Miss Edna Guisness was solemnized at
the residence of Mrs. Pauline Boethling
last Thursday evening, when Rev. R. T.

S3s Per Acre.

Merricourt News: One of the largest
real estate deals ever made in north
west Dickey county was closed last
week, when the Hyde farm, consisting
of $50 acres, was sold through the
agency of the Merricourt Land Company
to Chris Becker, Of Ashley, at the pur-
chase price of $35 per acre. This is
one of the best farms in this part of
North Dakota, and Mr.. Becker made a
wise selection. Mr.. Becker is one, of
the pioneer residents of this country
and is well known in both Dickey and
Mcintosh counties. He served as
county Judge in Mcintosh for six years
and county treasurer for four years.
Mr.. Becker does dot intend to move on
the farm for the present, as he has ex.
tensive interests at Ashley that will
occupy his attention. He has leased
the farm to Arndt Manned for a term
of ten years. Mr.. Hyde will hold an
auction sale sometime this month to
dispose of his live stock and machinery.

Of glass, metal, mica, sand, tinsel or
other similar substances, are unmail-
able, except when enclosed in envelopes.

ditions prescribed in the order. when
sent in the mails, are chargeable with

County School Notes.

Pupils eighth grade final examination
will occur on March 21st and 22nd.
Questions have been sent to all schools
that have requested same. In case of
school being closed in any district the
pupils may take the examination at the
county superintendent's Office.
The county superintendent was
pleased to see an improvement in the
style of constructing school buildings
for country schools, in visiting school
No. 8, Spring Valley school district.
This school house was built last fall and
presents neat exterior. The light
comes from windows on one side of
the building and thereby prevents the
cross lights so detrimental to sight.
The walls are tinted soft cream color
above wainscoting of hard wood. The
steel ceiling is handsome in design.
The district spelling contest will be
held on March 29th at some central
point in each district, notice of which
time and place has been sent to each
teacher in the county. This is to deter
mine the three pupils who are to repre-
sent their district in the county spelling
contest to be held at Glendale, May 25,
1907. The winner will receive $40 in
gold and the second best $40.
A great deal of interest was awakened
last year y.the spelling contest, so. a
similar one has been planned this year.
The words used are the words headed,
Difficult words from the lessons
taken from the seventh year work in
the North Dakota Speller. 1t is
thought best to award the one standing
second best this year in addition to the
winner.

While everything that was asked by
the educators of North Dakota was not
enacted into a law, still, so much that
is progressive has become law as to
satisfy even the most enthusiastic
school men.
The only measures which failed to be-
come laws, which were Of real merit
were: Granting aid to rural and small
graded schools Of high standard; pro.
viding for the planting of trees and
shrubs upon school grounds, and re.
moving the election Of county superin.
tendents from politics.
RAILROAD LEGISLATION.
The most important piece of railroad

Another bill requires railroad COM
panies to report the cause Of all wrecks

demeanor for an employee to be repaid

such labor.
Senate bill 273 requires the construc.
