Neglected Cold Threaten Life.

Don't trihe with a cold, is good ad-

Proper food, good ventilation and
dry warm clothing are the proper safe
guards against colds. If they are
maintained through the changeable

the chances of a surprise from ordi-

binary light cold will become severe

cold is to the germs of diphtheria
what honey is to the bee. The greatest
menace to child life at this season of
the year is the neglected cold. Wheth-

or severe the very best treatment that
can be adopted is to give Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t is safe and

been attained by its remarkable cures
of this ailment. A cold never results
in pneumonia when it is given. For

Still With The Firm

delinquent as follows:
"No advice from you since you left.
Are you still with us?"
In a little while the answer came.
" Referring yours of fifteenth. Have
drawn on you for two hundred and

Moving Time,

M arch the first marks the moving
time for many of the farmers. There
was q time when most of the leases ex-
PRED on the first of October, after the
grain had been threshed and hauled
to market; butin these later years the
time has been changed to the spring
so that most of the feed can be used on
the farm where it grows. The farmers
are fortunate this year in having fine
weather and good roads for moving

MARCH.
Here's March, that wild, half naked
child,
That runs the woods about.
Her ghostly screams shoot through
my dreams,
And put sweet sleep to rout.
She runs half clad mud-soaked and
mad,
Along the windy strand.
GmpasSioned, rash, she'll often dash,
The flowers in her hand,
Down on the ground, then dance
around,
And spit on them with snow;
Then sink to sleep and sob and weep,
In fitful dreams of woe.

The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1907-09-12

Independent readers will re-
member that IN a recent issue OF
this paper we commented edito-
rally upon the injustice done the
homesreaders by the government
in compelling them to remain up
on their claims, until they were
allowed to make final proof,
where they had already lived the
time required by law. !,
The landofices at Minot and
Williston have been from six to
nine months behind with their
proof business, so that it was ur'
Gent that the General landofhce
take some action and at once.
The Independent is glad to note
that this is what has been done
and where the homesteaders have
lived the required time, and have
made affidavit to prove up, they
can now leave their claims until
such time as the local landothce
can find time to hear the evil
dence.
We are glad to note that Regis
ter McGahan took the matter up
and communicated with the de-
partment at Washington. In or
der to give our readers a clearer
understanding OF this very i'm
portant matter, we publish the
communications written by Mr..
McGahan and the acting COM

Sir: As you have heretofore
been advised, this office is in a
badly congested condition owing
to the large number OF applica-
tions to prove up. At the pres
emit rate proofs cannot be taken
on applications fled at this time
before the month of April OF next
year owing to the great number
of applications already on file
and not acted on. The result is
that the Office is being constant
ly jmportuned, complaint and
restlessness being generally pre-
valent among those homestead

requirements OF the homestead
laws and are unable to make
proof Notwithstanding the fact
that they are entitled to do so.

last winter and the almost unlD.
durable hardships suffered by
those who remained on their

not to be wondered at. 1t is
needless to call attention to the
fact that c. ngress last winter by
special legislation sought to re.
lieve the suffering by granting a
leave Of absence.
As to those commuters who
would be entitled to make proof
before the winter sets in, and are
desirous of absenting themselves
during the winter months, can
not something be done so as to
excuse personal presence upon
their claims until such time az
they may be enabled to make
proof?
1t is possible that the situa-
tion may be relieved to such COM
muters who can show the requir-
ed residence, cultivation and i'm
provements to the time Of filing
their applications 10 makeproof,
and where their inability to
make proof at an early date is
due to no fault of their own and
that proof showing such compli.:
ance with the law to the time OF
filing application to prove up
would entitle them to patent
without any showing as to resi-
dence, etc., subsequent to the FL
ing Of such application. The
question is earnestly submitted
for your consideration with re-
quest that if possible you will
take such action at an early
date as may te deemed advisa-
