About the County
HE

From the Pioneer:
A death surrounded by circumstan-
ces which makes it harder for rela-
tives to bear is that of Nils For
seth whose demise occurred at his
home last Sunday, January 81, at 1870
o'clock in the afternoon from lacera-
ton of the brain. The injury was re-
ceived January s in a fall. Mr.. For
putting hay in the loft of his barn
by means of a carrier. The carrier
was not working right and he climbed
up to the roof on the inside Of the
barn by means of a ladder to fix it.
The ladder was braced against a per-
pendicular portion of the carrier rope
and rested on hay, with Mr.. Larson
steadying it. 1t was a rather shaky
position for the ladder and it began
to give in under him. He fell to the
loft floor, striking on his head. The
fall rendered him unconscious and he
vas carried to the Dr. Jen-
sen was called to take charge of the
case but he soon found it improb-
able, if not impossible, to save his
life. Mr.. Forseth perhaps never
gained consciousness after his injury
although members Of the family were
of the impression at times that the
cloud on his mind was beginning to
clear away. Last Sunday DR.. Stahl,
of Bookings, was called in consulta-
ton with DR.. Jensen but did not ar
rive until death had come. Nils For
seth was born in S%ingsaas, Norway,
and would have been 81 years old
next April. He came here with his
wife about q years ago and settled
on a homestead in the township OF
Hendricks, Brookings county where
he lived to the time of death. He
has four living children: Mrs. Clar-
ence Anderson, of Omaha, Neb.; Mrs.
Peter Nelson and Gina and Anna who
live here.

Bad fires have resulted in a large
number of towns in this state during
the past cold weather. Toronto lost
it's hotel, White it's big elevator,
Aberdeen, Huron and several other
towns have had fires that destroyed
a large amount of property. Although
Bruce has a fire engine it would be
useless if a fire should break out in
this town on account of the water
supply and no n seems to care; they
just sit around and talk about fire
protection but do nothing and take
chances on another big fire wiping out
the business portion of the town. We
have had two big fires for a town
of this size in the last few years and
it is time we had something better
than a bucket brigade with which to
fight fires.

most always happens that when the
Tribune says nice things about the

records for 1912 have been broken

more up in the tube. In fact the
warm weather of Sunday, Monday

snow and sleighing, which was good

be much severe cold, and that the
storms will come suddenly on warm
and sunny days. People of the
northwest are advised to prepare for
what will surely come and not allow
themselves to be iured away from
home and shelter by what appears
to be safe weather. No one will lose
anything by paying some attention
to this veteran weather man even if
it does not turn out as badly as he
predicts.
