WHERE TO LOCATE

Letters are received almost daily
from subscribers and others asking
the editor of the Northwest Home
seeker and Investor for his opinion
regarging different sections of the
west. Preferences is sometimes
shown for a particular location and
a reqnest is made for further infor-
nation. which is always given.
More often, however, positive adj
vice is sought, the letter closing
with the direct question, Where
would you advise me to locate'
Few men who are not in the bust
ness of selling land would care to
assume the responsibility of advis-
ing a man off-hand to locate in any
particular place, no matter how
great his faith might be in the
country as a whole. This is es-
pecially true when the inquirer
fails to state whether he wishes to
engage in the mercantile, stock,
dairy, fruit, grain or diversified
farming business. Consequently
the usual reply is to locate some
where in the Pacific Northwest-it
doesn't matter much in what part.
With a little money, nerve and
fair health, success is absolutely
certain. 1t the health is poor it
will probably show immediate inn
provement. The safest and best
plan is to read all the literature
obtainable OIL the various sections
of the Pacific Northwest. Don't
be afraid to answer advertisements
of chamber of commerce and real
estate men. Primarily their mo-
tives may be selfish, but they are
honest as a rule and are all working
for the upbuilding of the country
in which they have unbounded
faith-a faith which is justified.
Then, if possible, make tour Of
inspection before leaving the old
home for good. This is not abso-
lutely essential, because it is al
most certainty that the man who
is willing to make personal in
spection will remain.-Northwest
Homeseeker and Investor.

Stanton Here In Game Tuesday.

The first baseball game of the sea-
soli for Norfolk's new salaried club
will be played at Norfolk on Tuesday
with the Stanton team. The Stanton
club has been playing a winning game,
having been this week at Ainsworth
and Valentine in some fast battles.
The game will be watched with great
interest by Norfolk fans, because 1t
will be the first try-out Of the new
team in public.
The players we're out practicing yes
terday afternoon and are getting lin.
bered up for their game with Stanton
Tuesday.
The boys seem to be in fine condi-
ton, as most of them have been play
ing ball with teams outside of Norfolk
ever since the season opened.
The grounds are being put In shape
and Manager Page, who was out all
day yesterday working with saw and
hammer, says he expects it to be in
good condition. The home plate has
been moved ten feet further from the
backstop.
1t Is not known yet with what teams
Norfolk will play during the race meet
August 4, and 6, but the team will
be a good one as the purse offered
them by the race committee will, it Is
said be good sized one.
Valentine and Wisner are likely to
be some of the teams that will play
here in the near future.

SHIP LEAK DETECTOR.
Device That Gives Warning as Soon az
Danger Appears.

Captain Joseph B. Williams of Pitts
burg has completed an instrument
which sounds an alarm when n ship
springs leak and the United States
has become interested.
The detector consists Of metal foot
on which rests hollow cylinder to be
placed at the point In the hold Of n
vessel where water might enter and
prove a danger If not instantly detect,
ed. This pipe is continued to the
bridge, pilothouse or other point where
an officer is on duty. 1t ends In
brass bowl, In the center of which
Is diaphragm constructed of metal
and so thin as to be susceptible to the
slightest pressure and 80 constructed
as to be air tight.
Resting on this diaphragm is pis-
ton that projects through the top Of
the bowl, where 1t may come in con-
tact with metallic lips at each side.
Over all Of this is an electric battery,
and on top Of the battery is a bell.
When the water enters the cylinder
down In the hold 1t drives air through
the tube to the diaphragm, which in
stantly expands and, lifting the piston.
brings 1t in contact with the metallic
lips. This causes the alarm gong TO
sound
