LAND PAID FOR WITH
ONE SEASONS CROP

Fessenden Free Press: John J..
Werner young and hustling
farmer living six miles south of
Bowdon, had a flax crop this year
winch yielded return of $3.50
per acre from land which he pur-
chased at the school land sale a
year ago for $14 per acre. Only
another instance of what Wells
county land is capable of doing,
even in the dryest of drought
years. Mr.. Werner was a Fessen-
den caller recently upon business
matters, coming up by the way of
Darlington, and he said that he
put in 100 acres Of flax of the
quarter he purchased from the
state which yielded seven bushels
to the acre, bringing him $3.50 per
bushel. The land cost him $14 per
acre, or $2,240, and IL he had had
1T all in fax the crop would have
brought him gross return of
$4,000, some $500 more than the
land cost. Not so bad as an In
vestment for Mr.. Werner, or any
one, and certainly an argument
for better prices for Wells county
dirt. The returns from many
farms through the southern part
Of this county and down in Kidder
county are giving that section a
deserved boost in public confidence
and 1t will not be many years be-
fore land there will be worth as
much as it is anywhere in the
state, other conditions being
equal.

TAGUS, N. D., HAS
A $4,000 FIRE

Tagus, N. D., Nov 2S.-During the
storm of Saturday evening the Pio-
neer store on the corner belonging to
August P. Nelson, in some unknown
manner, caught fire and burned COM
pletely to the ground with all its con-
tents. At 2 o'clock when the alarm
was given the inhabitants of the VIII
lage rushed out into the night and
to the scene Of the fire to offer their
aid in checking the flames but the
Nelson store was too far gone to save
anything. For a time it was thought
that the Citizens State bank was in
danger but the wind drove the flames
in the opposite direction thus saving
the rest of the town.
Nelson's loss Is around $4,000, with
Insurance covering $4,000 Mr.. Mel
son is one OF the pioneer business men
of the town and enjoyed a large pat
ronage and his many patrons hope to
see MIN rebuild and open for business
as soon as possible again.

BAD JUVENILES IN
COUNTY'S CHARGE
NEW METHOD OF ESTABLISHING
COURT TO CARE FOR YOUNG
STEERS PROPOSED.

Grand Forks, N. d., Nov. 2S.-New
theories in the solution of the Juvenile
court situation in North Dakota are
proposed by q bill that will be intro
dueed at the coming session of the leg
islative assembly. This measure will
! give counties in the state the privilege
of making their county court a juve-
nile court and clothing their judge of
probate with the powers of a juvenile
court judge.
Dean A. A. Bruce of the University
of North Dakota college of law is pre-
| pairing the bill at the present time and
| it will be ready for introduction early
in the session. The provisions con-
tanned in it, bearing particularly upon
the county court feature, were in
cluded for the purpose of minimizing
the expense attached to the operation
Of the law and also for the purpose of
getting around the constitutional pro-
visions in the matter.
Under the state constitution it is
impossible to establish any new courts
without amending the constitution,
which requires at least. four years.
Dean Bruce holds that the conditions
In the majority of the counties of the
state are such as to make the estab-
lishment of an Independent Juvenile
court piece of extravaganza and for
that that reason HE has hit on the
county court plan. This same plan is
under contemplation in the state of
Oklahoma
The county court would be given
jurisdiction in Juvenile cases only in
such counties as the provision has
been voted on, increased Jurisdiction
being accorded the courts in much the
same manner as their present jurisdic-
ton is increased by elections in the
individual counties. An increase in
the salary would also be necessary. but
the highest salary that would be all
lowed would be $4,000. That is the
highest salary allowed under the pres
ent law relating to increased iuris-
diction in criminal cases.
In addition to the creation of the
county court as a Juvenile court, the
measure will also provide for the an
polntment OF county probation Off |
Ger. This Is to be regulated on the
population basis, that is, county of /
1000 would have one probation Off |
Ger while a county of 10000 popula-
ton would have two, and so one. That
is a matter for the legislature to thresh
out.
For some little time the leading
prosecutors of the state have
recognized the need of some regula-
ton for dealing with the juvenile stu
alton, this being especially true of the
larger cities of the state. Under the
plan proposed in the measure. that
viii introduced in the assembly this
winter, which makes the adoption of
t optional with the several individual
counties, it is believed that little diff
iculty will be found in securing fav-
orable action.

Do No Try to Drive and Force II to
Work When 1t 10 Not Able or
You VIII Suffer All the More.

s@A WIZ GlHGr mi kFIG tNiuFGs
You cannot treat your stomach as
some men treat balky horse; force,
drive or even starve 1t into doing work
at which it rebels The stomach is a
patient and faithful servant and will
stand much abuse and ill-treatment
before it "balks,'' but when it does you
had better so slow with it and not at
tempt to make 1t work. Some people
have the mistaken idea that they can
make their stomachs work by starving
themselves. They might cure the
stomach that way but it would take
so long that they would have no use
for stomach when they got through.
The sensible way out of the difficulty
is to let the stmoach rest IL 1t wants to
and employ a substitute to do it's work
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
the work OF your stomach for you and
digest your food just as your stomach
used to when it was well. You can
prove this by putting your food in a
glass jar with one of the tablets and
sufficient water and you will see the
food digested in just the same time as
the digestive fluids of the stomach
would do it. That will satisfy your
mind. Now, to satisfy both your
mind and body take one of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after eating-eat all
and what you want-and you will feel |
In your mind that your food is being |
digested because you will feel no dis |
turbance or weight i'm your stomach; |
in fact, you will forget all about hav-
ing stomach, Just as you did when |
YOU were a healthy boy or girl.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets act in a
natural way because they contain only
the natural elements of the gastric
juices and other digestive fluids of the
stomach. 1t makes no difference what
condition the stomach is i'm. they go
right ahead of their own accord and
do their work. They know their bust
ness and surrounding conditions do not
influence them in the least. They thus
relieve the weak stomach of all it's
burdens and give it it's much needed
rest and permit it to become strong
and healthy.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents a box. |
They are so well known and their
popularity is so great that a druggist .
would as soon think of being out of
alcohol or quinine as of them. In fact {
physicians are prescribing them all J
over the land, and if your own doctor '
Is real honest with you he will tell t
you frankly that there is nothing on s
Earth so good for dyspepsia as Stuart's '
Dyspepsia Tablets.
