The Napoleon Homestead published a
good article about supporting your
home paper. 1t reads as follows: The
local newspaper is indispensable to any
town that has any get-up about it. 1t
is one of the necessaries of the farmer
and business 1t puts the ball in
motion when any new enterprise is pro-
posed that would be a benefit to the
town and community in which it is
published. 1t keeps an eye on every
move that is calculated to help the
people. 1t keeps a record of the hap
penings of the town and the surround
ing country and is read a thousand
miles away by persons who are hunt
ing a home and a place to invest their
money. 1t booms your town and gives
it a name abroad that it would other
wise not have. There are thousands of
reasons why a town should support a
newspaper. but the greatest of all is
because it pays and pays we'll to sup
port it. Don't knock it. 1t is liable to
return the compliment at a time when
a strong and vigorous kick will do the
most good. The local paper is a medi-
UNI for good but it is we'll and scientific
cally trained in the art of unmasking
an INSCRIPTIONS, selfish and narrow
minded knocker when the occasion
arises.

The director Of the census bureau
sees a way to save the country a great
deal of expense by having the city and
rural mail carriers take the next cen
sus of population. The last census,
that of 1910, cost Uncle Sam $14, OOO, 900.
If less questions were asked the car
riers could do the work. The next CEN
sus of agriculture will be in 1915 and is
estimated to cost about 81, 900, 900.

The farewell reception given for
Governor and Mrs. John Burke at Bis
marck a short time ago has been fav-
orably commented upon over the entire
state. Valuable gifts We're presented to
each of them as kind remembrances
from many friends. Short talks were
given by those attending the re-
ception and the governor was at
a loss for words. as he said, for the
first time in his life, when making a
reply to presentation speeches. Mr..
and Mrs. Burke will spend the winter
in the south.

To the Land Owners Of Mclean Co.

We are just now planning our cam
paign for land buyers for the 1913 sea-
son. Our agents in Minnesota and
South Dakota are lining up prospective
buyers. We consider the 1912 season
closed now and in summing up our re-
cord We find that it was not a good year
for the land unsuccessful we did fair
ly well. We actually sold 81 quarters
of Mclean County land in 1912. This
land was mostly tributary to Washburn
and with few exceptions was improved
farming land and the buyers were South
Dakota people who will move here and
farm. Last year we confined our
operations to the vicinity of Washburn.
This season, however, We want to ex-
tend our territory and our business and
will operate and do business any where
within a radius of so miles of Wash
burn. We expect to do an extensive
land business and we want to list not
less than 200 farms. We expect to
have a good run of buyers and we want
to have a good list of lands to select
from. If you are interested in selling
some of your land holdings you should
write or see us and list your land. Now
is the time to. list your land if you
really care to sell. Do not wait until
next spring or summer if you want to
sell, but arrange and list now and take
advantage of having it advertised.
This is the fourteenth season that we
have sold land in this county and we
are the most extensively advertised
land firm in this part of the state; we
also make more sales than any other
land firm in the county. W. are now
offering our service to those who want
to sell their lands.
We also have good facilities for plac-
ing first mortgage loans. We are now
making real estate loans at 8%-no
bonus, no commission-straight q.
See or write us about your land loan.

son. Mr.. Reimers is 70 years old and
has lived alone during the last -four
years. He has had a number of ex-
p~eriences during that time, and re-
called n that he will long remember.
During the June raise one year the
Missouri river o%verflowed its banks and
as his claim is on the bottoms at Big
Bend he got the full force of the over
flow. To save himself from being
drowned he climbed upon the roof of
the barn where he had to stay one
whole day and night without ANYTHING
to eat and until his neighbors took him
away in a row boat.
Judge w. L. Nuessle held his first

Geo. Stohler was the principle witness
in the case and he testified to the i'll

He is to keep the children in his home
and give them an education. A month

passed and the work on passing bills has

At present the work is progressing
