DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription con-
tains no alcohol, and no narcotics or
other harmful or habit-fo forming drugs,
as will be seen from its published in
gradients. It contains only such native,
medicinal roots as are most highly rec
commended by leading me1ical writers
and practitioners of all the seyera!
schools of practice, for the cure of wom-
ans delicate and peculiar ailments. It
is safe for women to take IN any con-
dttfon OF the system, as it assists Nature
IN restoring the healthful action OF all

AN ESTIMABLE MALTA MATRON
DIES IN GREAT FALLS HOSPITAL

Mrs. Minnie L. Koke, wife of B.
H. Koke of this city, died last
Wednesday evening at the Columbus
Hospital, Great Falls, of tubercular
enteriti.
Minnie Dahl, winsome bride of
twenty-five summers, was united in
marriage to B. H. Koke at Thief
River Falls. Mimi, July Sth, 1908,
and after brief visits at Twin Valley,
Minn., and at Ullen, N. d., where
Miss Dahl had been postmistress, the
happy couple came to Malta and at
once began housekeeping in one of
the Tucker cottages which the groom
had previously fitted up for a home.
By her gentleness and loving devo-
tion to her home and husband, the
bride made many friends.
About two months ago, or May
Goth, Mrs. Koke went to Great Falls
and entered Columbus Hospital.
Three days later she gave birth to a
child, a boy, who still survives her.
The interval of time between the date
OF the birth of the child and the day
OF her death was one of greatest anx-
lety to her devoted husband and
friends. All hoped against hope, un-
til number of prominent physicians
and surgeons in consultation de-
clared there was no possibility of re-
covery. The end came soon, though
the light burned brighter before it
went out, for word reached Malta the
day before she died that her condition

DEMONSTRATION FARM
NEAR STATE FAIR GROUNDS
Ten ACRE TRACT IS RECOMMENDED BY COMMISSIONER
oF AGRICULTURE HALL FOR DRY FARMING
EXHIBITIONS DURING STATE FAIR WEEK

Helena, Montana, July 22.-(Spec-
ial.) The establishment of demon
stration dry farm adjacent to the
Montana State Fair grounds has been
suggested by j. H. Hall, commission
er of agriculture, labor and indus
try, and the idea is meeting with
commentator on every hand. There
have been great advances in dry land
farming in Montana in the last two
years and the results of this method
OF farming will be shown at the state
fair. The interest in dry farming in
this state has been intensified by the
preparations for the Fourth Dry
Farming Congress which will be held
at Billings, Montana, October 1928,
next, in connection with which will
be held the International Exposition
of Dry Farm Products, October 25-29,
which promises to be one of the lar
gest as we'll as the most unique agri-
cultural exhibitions ever held in the
west. Mr.. Hall said:
81 think it would be most excel
lent idea for the state fair authori-
ties or the citizens Of Helena to Sc
cure at once about ten acres adjacent
to the fair grounds and have it thor
oughly prepared under the improved
system of dry farming and then have
it SOWn with the best quality of Tur-
key Red Wheat. If a good yield is
secured it would prove most telling
demonstration not only of the system
in the Prickley Pear valley, but in
the State generally. 1 think this is a
matter that should be taken up by
the proper persons in interest as the
result of successful demonstration
would be far reaching and add great
ly to the value of the land in the val
ley.'
