Pineacura is Quick and Sure.
Removes Pain and Heals
the Wound.

most effective remedy in the Drug
World for severe burns, strains, ul-
GERS or stiff muscles.
In other words, Pineacura does
away with all inAammation-ab sorbs
it and does it effectively and quickly.

VENTILATE YOUR BED ROOM.

AS soon as the harvest is giving
leisure to the men who have worked
hard all summer, they should think
about their winter sleeping quarters
According to the state anti-tubercu-
losis society, much of the consump-
ton which attacks country residents
is aided by poor ventilation in the
bed room. Every one needs plenty of
fresh air when he sleeps, and with
blankets on the bed, you will be
warm enough if the windows are
open, even in the coolest weather.
Storm windows should be put on
hinges so they can be opened dur
ing the night. Thousands of people
all over the state are sleeping in the
open air all the time on sleeping
porches. These are open on three
sides, shut off from the house and
have given renewed emery to every
one who has used them. Fresh air
will prevent as we'll as cure tubercu-
losis.-State Board of Health Talk 10.

100000 HOGS IN MINNESOTA,

St. Paul, Oct. 1.-"Pigs is pigs"
in Minnesota, according to figures
struck this morning by the State Tax
commission. Assessment returns
show the total number of pigs in
Minnesota this year is 69,953 greater
than a year ago. In other words,
there are 5O2,271 hogs in Minnesota
now as compared with 432,31S year
ago. Their value is $1,615,94S,
against $1,473,6s0 a year ago.
The commission had to remind one
assessor that pigs are hogs, and had
considerable argument trying to con-
vince him. The statement of assess
ors asks for the listing of 'ihogs."
The assessors report was to small
and an investigation showed he had
not assessed swine under six months
of age, because they were pigs"

To End Pollution of the Lakes.

ways met in this city today for what
is regarded as the most important
session that has yet been held by
that body. The chief purpose of the
meeting is to formulate a program
for the investigation of the pollution
of the great lakes and other boun-
dairy waters between the United
States and Canada. This question, in
the opinion of officials, of the two
governments, has become the most
pressing of all problems affecting the
welfare of the people of the two coun-
tries.

here that had not been in Solway
an hour before l decided to buy land
and Mr.. Bye had eighty acres that
just suited me, more so as to location
as it joins the townsite. I paid him
$25 per acre and l consider it very
cheap. He has some very choice
tracts from half mile to mile from
town that he sells from $12 to SIS
per acre on easy terms. But it will
not last long at the rate he is selling
it. He sold LAO acres the day be-
fore I came there to some Goodhue
county Norwegians, and if the soil
and conditions had not been right he
never could have sold to them.
s'Mr. Bye came with me to Bemidji
as I was a little undecided about go

heard about the town. But it did not
take me long to change my mind as I
found it a place about 5000 people,
The streets were paved and it had as
fine hotels and stores as you will find
in much larger. cities, one Union de-
pot built last summer and Jim Hill
is now building one of his own which
will cost 100000. There are five or
six big factories. The largest is the
Crookston saw mill. They pay a tax
on a valuation of $276,OOO to the
county so you can imagine what a
concern it is. There are three large
school buildings, one costing over
$4,000. They have an experiment
farm for the school, also a State
Demonstrating Farm one and a half
miles out of town. I found Bemidji
a nice, orderly town. On the beauti-
full lake, which is over seven miles
long and four miles wide with the
Mississippi passing through it, I saw
some of the finest gasoline launches.
Mr.. Bye told me some cost as high
as $4,000.
"And now to close I will say to
those who are renting land and who
have not money enough to buy this
high priced land, go up north and
look at the land for sale. It will not
be long before the best is gone and
you must remember there is only one
crop of land"

hit, but Merkle afterwards declared
without batting an eye that he touch
ed the ball and took an error, so that
