Fargo's landofice is probably near

ing to an advice from General Land
Commissioner bennett at Washington
this morning, which cautions Register
Schuyler and Receiver Jordan not to
hear any reports or contests after
June 80 this year.

err"
The Interpretation of this message is
that the Fargo landofice is to be
closed on that date and the remaining
territory still within the Fargo dis
trict will be turned over to one of the
other districts, either Bismarck or
Devils Lake.
There only remains about $500
acres of land yet in the Fargo dis
triot, and a large share of that is I'M
attractive. 1t is probable this land
will be attached to the Bismarck dis
trict, though it is understood that an
effort may be made by some of the
state democrats to have the Fargo
district included in the Devils Lake
office so as to prolong the life Of that
district.
However, the success of such a
scheme is only problematical and it
is generally believed that the Bis
marck office will get = the left over
townships of the Fargo district.

INMATES ARE Leaving
Number Of Persons at the County
Hospital Has Been Reduced
From. 70 to As.

During the past few days the num-
per OF inmates in the county hospital
has been greatly reduced, this being
caused by the approach of warm
weather. AT n time during the past
winter there were no less than sew
enty persons in the county home. At
the present time there are in the
neighborhood OF forty five and il is
likely that several more will leave
for the summer.
Superintendent Gill is getting the
ground in shape for seeding. It is
the intention to raise a great deal of
corn n potatoes during the season
the inmates. The hospital since the
electric light vas installed and a
heating plant has been inaugurated
a been made very comfortable.

IN THE WOMEN'S WARD
Short Term Prisoners Will Be Kept in
the North Vino Of the Old
County Jail.

The county commissioners have
made the discovery that the north
wing of the old county jail which was
formerly used as the women,s ward
will not in the least interfere with the
erection of the new jail, and 1t has
been decided to utilize this wing for
the keeping of the short term prison
ers from now until the new jail is
ready for use. The wall of the new
Jail will not come nearer than two
feet to the present Women's depart
ment. 3
This will be the means of saving
to the county several thousands Of
dollars" said Col. Henry Rusch, one
of the commissioners, to The Forum
this morning, I'VE will only take the
long term prisoners to the Jail at
Wahpeton, keeping those who are
sent up for only short terms here.
1t will save us a lot of bother in adj
dition to the expense of taking the
prisoners out Of the county"

portunity if we met it face to face
in broad daylight.
Some years ago Tin 1S9D the
word went out that they were find
ing ore up on the Rio Grande
river at Creede. Most of the peo-
pie around Monte Vista, at that
time, went quietly on their way
and never awakened to the fact
that anything was doing within 60
miles of them, until they saw nine
coach trains, loaded to the plat
forms, pass through the town,
sometimes as many as 3 in one day
Right now there is more ore in
sight in Platoro and vicinity than
Creede ever had at any one time
in her whole existence and the
scope of territory embraced within
the mineral belt is as large or
larger than any other district in
the state of Colorado. A greater
amount of development work has
been accomplished by far than was
done at Creede, Cripple Creek or
Leadville prior to the boom days
of these notorious camps, and yet
outside of certain circles you hard
ly hear a word or mention in Monte
Vista, of this camp.
This is the natural and best point
of entry for this district and the
only thing necessary to control
this, as the railroad point, is to put
the roads in good condition that
lead to the camp. Are you willing
to help to do thisY Now do not
say 81 have no money to put into
roads" No one has asked you for
money, and what's more, no one is

You have it here in your valley
and what are you going to do
about it?
Il want to say to you at this
time as far as I am concerned I am
not over here in the light of know
ing it all, not in the light of being
smart, not in the light of bunco-
ism, or anything like that. l am
over here honestly and sincerely
giving my opinion, based upon
what l have learned from study
of this disease and from the study
of diseases in general. You farm
ers would not expect city man to
go out in the country and know
all about farming; neither could
you expect one who has not made
special study of investigating
animal diseases to know all about
those diseases. The thing we
work on and make our life problem
and study from every point of
view. When we do that we are
presumed to get farther into it
than those who do not study it and
make their life problem. l have
worked on animal diseases for 25
or 30 years, all the time, and l
have no apologies to make for not
knowing more about it, but l know
all that l have been able to find
out by work both in the field and
in the laboratory during that time
and l am giving you my honest
opinion and you can take it for
what it is worth.
You have cholera here and il
has already killed from four to
five hundred thousand dollars
worth of hogs, and the end is not
YET. Inat loss lS small part OF
the damage done to the valley. 1t
is not 30 much question of rails
ing a greater number of hogs as it
is a question of taking care of what
you do have and taking care of
them well. 1t does not pay to
keep animals unless you can afford
to feed them, shelter them and
care for them, and not letting them
go to take their chance without
proper food and shelter; and then
trust to chance that they will live
and bring in handsome returns.
