THE Stone MOUNTED IN T|FFINY
SETTING is VALUED AT $275.

The Herald's diamond ring voting
contest has aroused the interest of a
number of the young ladies of the
county and as will be seen below
some effort has already been made
by them, to make. a good start.
From now on the interest will
doubtless increase with each succeed
ing:Week.
We experienced considerable delay
in securing the ring we had annouc-
ed we would give away, and then did
not get a $2500O stone, but we got
something better. It came about in
this way: Mr.. F. B. Churchill was
authorized to secure the ring and he
ordered out from Chicago a =. num-
Der of stones on examination; These,
to the number of four, arrived last
Thursday, but none came up to the
requirements as the largest in the lot
could be bought for $4,000. A telea
graphic order was sent Immediately
and another consignmet was received
in response. From these we have Sc
lected most handsome stone to cost
$275. That is $25 more than we ad-
vertised last week, but we know that
all will agree with US that it is worth
the extra money.
Mr.. E. B. Churchill, having severed
his connection with the Churchill Jew

Mr.. c. c.. Babb, engineer in charge
of the government work on the Milk

of last week to see about the contract
between the ditch owners in the vi

BY the terms of the proposed con-
tract. all. water users under propos-
ed St. Mary's-Milk River project who
are ditch owners in the vicinity OF
Chinook and Harlem will limit their
prior water rights to the present ca
pacity 70 their bitches as measured
by the hydrohgraphic survey, in case
the St. Mary's canal is not built. /:

of $3.50 per, acre on the land now If

all along the line have signified thei,
Willingness to sign the contract. B.
telegram from Washington Mr. Bah
is requested to have the Upper Mill
River Water Users association organ
lied.
The organization expected to built
and manage the canals between Yam
tic and Dodson. This request is very
suggestive of the attitude of the of
flee at Washington toward an early
completion of the st. Mray 's-Milk Ri
yer systems.
| The contract will obviate the neces
sity for the expensive litigation of tn,
water rights to Milk river and it's tri

users under the Dodson canals from
future increases by the Upper Wate1
Users association, and will insure tn,
cooperation of all the land owners
in the former and thereby diminish
the proportionate cost of the St. MARY

speak freely Of its merits.
From overwork, I suffered several
years with malnutrition, palpitation Of

BUYERS SHOULD BEWARE,
Infringements Of Patents by Concerns
Doing a MaiI-Order Business.

Recently the United States circuit
court for the southern district Of
New York handed down a decision
which is of particular interest to
thousands of farmers throughout the
land. Two large manufacturers of
cream separators instituted suit for
infringements of their patents against
one of the largest mail-order houses.
The decision of the court was in favor
of the complainants and decree was
rendered granting a permanent in
junction and masters order on &C
counting in favor of the compl:.inants.
This case has been before the courts
that thousands of the separators, in.
fringements upon the patents owned
by the complainants, have been sold
to farmers throughout the country
The laws of the United States forbid
the using Of patented machines, as
we'll as the making and selling of the
same. The court order means that
the mail-order concern will be COM
PEELED to pay an equitable amount
upon each machine manufactured and
sold, as we'll as the payment of other
damages on account of such manufac.
ture and sales. 1t also means that the
two companies, who are the com.
plainants, can prevent each purchaser
of the infringed cream separator u.s.
ing the same, or to pay a royalty for
the using Of the same.
The people should derive a lesson
from this. 1t is not safe to purchase
any invention put out by mail-order
concern unless there IS positive proof
that it is not an infringement. An.
other thing is, were people inclined to
patronize home concerns there would
be little chance of being imposed
upon, and should trouble arise over
the validity of any patent, it is much
easier to adjust matters with the home
merchant than with some foreign
mail-order house.

IMPROVING TIE IoyyN.
Necessity for Sewer Systems and 9th.
er Sanitary Measures.

Upon the healthfulness of a city
depends much of its success and it's
growth. Towns that are not reputed
to be sanitary places are generally
evaded by home-seekers. One is often
impressed with the fact that in small
towns typhoid and malarial fevers are
often more frequent and af1ict great
or numbers according to population
than in the large cities. The simple
reason for this is the neglect Of sani-
tary improvement.
In the charter of many towns provi-
sion for the building OF sewerage sys-
TENS is overlooked, and years and years
elapse before any consideration is
given to the Importance of providing
means for draining away the un-
wholesome increment that accumu-
lates. Then it is found that there is
great amount of red tape before
funds can be raised by taxation or by
voting bonds for the building of a
sewerage system.
Small towns as we'll as large cities,
generally draw their authority for the
making of public improvements from
the. state. While nearly all the states
provide for bonding and the raising Of
funds for improvements in the larger
cities and towns, the towns of 5000 or
5000 population are neglected. With
in the past two years the state of Ne
braska, realizing the necessity Of the
smaller towns having the privilege of
voting bonds and making assessments
against property for the building of
sewerage systems, enacted state law
covering all the points involved. This
law has already been beneficial, a
number of the incorporated villages
and towns having commenced the
building of sewerage systems.
1t is always well when contemplate
ing the building of sewers to esti-
mate that the town is likely to grow,
and that a system adequate to give
necessary drainage for town of 5000
would be inadequate for town twice
the size, and as the town grows the
original plans are found lacking and
old sewerage lines of little utility, as
they must be replaced by new sys-
TENS. The economic value of perfect
drainage for a town cannot be over
estimated. The health Of the people
is paramount to all other things, and
where there are uasanitary condi-
tions a town cannot expect to enjoy
the greatest prosperity, though the
doctors, who are residents If the place,
may have exceptionally good prac-
tice.
