Wahpeton People Should Learn to
Detect the Approach Of Kid
ney Disease.

The symptoms of kidney
trouble are 60 unmistakable
that they leave no ground for
doubt. Sick kidneys excrete a
thick. cloudy, offensive urine,
full of sediment, irregular of
passage or attended by a sen-
sation of scalding. The back
aches constantly, headaches
and dizzy spells may occur and
the victim is often weighed
down by feeling of languor
and fatigue. Neglect these
warnings and there is danger
of dropsy, Bright's disease, or
diabetes. Any one of these
symptoms is warning enough
to begin treating the kidneys
at once. Delay often proves
fatal.
You can use no better remedy
than Doan's Kidney Pills.

CAPITAL on the Farm

Capital is needed in running
farm as we'll as in any BUSH
ness. Land Poor is very ex-
pressive term and it is condi-
ton that too often exists on
farms.
The new beginner cannot be
blamed if he is short of capital.
He does wisely in securing
farm, even if he does not have
capital enough to equip it as
we'll as he would like. The
trouble comes in when this
farmer makes enough to pay
for his farm and then buys
more land instead of thoroly
equipping the farm he has. It
is a good deal like the mer-
chant who wing goods
enough to occupy a small part
of his store should buy another
store instead of buying more
stock to put on his shelves.
This argument could be used
The land will rise in value, and
so might the store. Will this
bring in more than working
the farm to it's full capacity?
The store with but few goods
on the shelves would not likely
increase very fast in value, and
the half worked farm does not
increase in value as fast as the
well.tilled acres. And when it
does go up in value it lie not
due to any efforts of its owner,
but will come as a result Of the
greater dem and for land or be-
cause of up-to date farmers on
the surrounding farms.
1t has been found from ex
perience that at least one.haif
as much money should be put
into equipment and buildings
as into land. This will of course
differ good deal, yet it gives
an idea of the need of some
thing more than land to make
the most successful farm.

The st. Louis Globe Demo.
Graf has the following editorial
that presents something IF in
terest on the sale of women:
Perhaps the moral protest of
the clergy and the people
against the marriage of Colonel
Astor is not grounded wholly
upon the fact that he is a di-
vorced man. In the multitude
of spoken and printed criticism
there is strong note of protest
against what is called "the sale
of young woman" to a man

that nothing but the fact of his
great wealth and his great So

to account for it. This protest

unions for the holding of titles

the resentment, of the people of
this country has been aroused
in recent years, not by the 8 wap-

BY the swapping of women with
wealth for hereditary titles of
nobility. This is a new phase
of craftsmanship in women.
Feudalism knew nothing of it,
for then cash had not broken

with a view to closer connection be-

public questions Too great discrep.
ancy between state convention deelara
ton and legislative action is quite likely
to react injuriously, for the people are
capable of sizing up situations and judg.
ing parties by what they do instead of
what they promise to do; and political
ties are not so binding these days as
they used to be. A discrepancy OF some
magnitude was noted in 1910, and the
criticism that followed the discovery was
fairly keen.
Let us have the Republican party's
platform long enough before the state
convention day 10 look 1t over and APP
prove or amend it.
Let us send to the state convention
delegates who sense public opinion on
the questions at issue and will act, in
convention, according TO that opinion.
Let us hold all our county conventions
after the meeting OF the state organiza-
ton, in order that our senator's may be
chosen with view to the carrying out
OF platform pledges.
Then let us elect representatives with
the same object in view and expect OF
them reasonably strict compliance with

pox, Vermont does not want reciprocity
with a sister state. Indeed, Vermont
will have to erect some rather high
health barriers to keep the disease out,
as there are numerous cases in the Dor.

the bridge from Wells River Thus far
the New Hampshire authorities have not
only failed to check the disease. but
they have failed to eonfne the outbreak
to the areas where it started. This inn
poses considerable hardship on Yer
