their Railroad Commission and

S%egregate cattle from infected
herds. Keep cattle, sheep, hogs and
horses from ranging on land or high
ways travered by infected cattle.
Spray creosote and bichloride of lime
on infected rea
Stay infected animals and bury
them in quick lime. Do not allow
persons from farms where disease
exists to visit your farm. The germs
may be carried twenty miles on the
sole of the shoe. Kill all rats in
infected areas. Quarantine all cattle
which have come in contact with in
fected cattle and bind hoofs with ban
dages soaked in bichloride of lime.
The disease will run through a whole
herd. Over 500, 600. 90 worth of
fancy cattle have already been killed
in Chicago, besides hundreds of ordin-
airy animals. The disease appears as
an inflammation just above the hoof
and becomes an abscess and can be
contracted by sheep and hogs as we'll
as cattle and horses.

WARNING TO STOCK BREEDERS

North Dakota is nothing il not pro-
gressive in her methods. When the
residents Of this great state start to
do a thing they do it right. For some
time past North Dakotans have been
taking steps to learn more about d.
versitied farming and stock raising
and in this they have been as thor
ough as in other matters. Several
communities have sent parties to
Wisconsin to learn first hand from the
dairy farmers there and other progress
sive steps have been taken to get in
touch with the best practice in farm
matters. One of the latest move
ments was one launched at Grand
Forks recently, which planned to take
a whole Pullman train load of North
Dakota farmers to the international
stock show at Chicago, which is held
annually in December. The interest
in this trip was intense, farmers from
all owe the state having made reser-
vatlons upon its special train, how
ever, through no fault of North
Dakota, this trip has now necessarily
been abandoned because there will be
no stock show this year. The dreaded
foot and mouth disease, which became
epidemic first in Michigan and which
rapidly spread to Chicago and other
states, has necessitated, first, the
closing of the Chicago stock yards,
and later the calling off of the inter-
national stock show. Stock yards all
over the country are being closed in
the efforts of the federal authorities
to stamp out the disease. 1t is now
reported that the symptoms of this
dreaded malady have been discovered
at Mandan, in our own state, and il
may be we'll to give a few simple
directions for it's treatment. When
ever it is discovered, observe the fol.
lowing rules:

NO
The Proof is Here In Langdon the Same as
Everywhere Else

For those who seek relief from
kidney backache, weak kidneys, blad-
der ills, Doan's kidney pills offer hope
of relief and the proof is here in Lang
don the same as every where. Lang
don people have used Doan's and they
recommend Doan's, the kidney remedy
used in America for fifty years. Why
suffer; why III the risk of dangerous
kidney ills-fatal Bright's disease ?
Here's Langdon proof investigate it:
"Some years ago 1 had kidney
trouble and a lame back,' says Mrs.
John Crawford of Langdon. "Doan's
kidney pills cured me. l haven't had
any need of a remedy since. The en-
dorsement l gave Doan's kidney pills
some years ago still holds good
Mrs. Crawford is only one of the
many Langdon people who have CRATE
fully endorsed Doan's kidney pills; if
your back aches; if your kidneys both
er you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy-ask distinctly for Doan's
kidney pills, the same that Mrs.
Crawford had-the remedy backed by
home testimony; soc all stores. Eos

LOOKING AT A PHOTOGRAPH.
Better Effects Are Obtained When Only
One Eye Is Used.

Better Effects Are Obtained When Only
One Eye Is Used.
Photographs should be looked at
with only one eye to appear best, says
f. w. NARROW in an article on How
to Look at q Photograph" in the Photo
Era.
Most Photographs, particularly small
GneS of landscapes. street enc and
Interiors. fail to produce their full eff
feet or to be estimated at their true
value because they are not looked at
in the most effective way" the author
says. Take as an example q print re-
sulting from a camera with a five inch
focus lens. Such a print is usually
looked at with both eyes open and
held at Il distance Of twelve inches or
more. Now a camera is essentially a
one eyed instrument, or, at any rate.
it views the object to be reproduced
from a single point. the optical ENTER
Of the lens. The object must be looked
at, therefore, with one eye only and
from a point corresponding as nearly
as possible to the optical center Of the
lens if its characteristics as it is to be
| reproduced in the camera are to be ap-
preciated.
LET it be remembered that when a
print is looked at with both eyes open
binocular vision emphasizes the fat
ness of the card, and this tends to off
set the illusion of greater or less dis
lance produced by the light and shade
and perspective Of the print By using
one eye the impression of fairness is
greatly diminished. If at the same
time the eye be placed at the right
distance everything is seen under it's
natural angle or perspective, and the
picture unfolds itself, the different OBJ
! jects receding to their proper relative
distances, making details very obvious
which may be unnoticed if looked at
in the ordinary way.
LAS q sort Of corollary to the above
use one eye alone to decide whether a
landscape or other scene is worth talk
ing. If with one eye the scene looks
fat it will not make a satisfactory
photograph"

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION

The President following the estab-
lished custom, has issued the follow
ing Thanksgiving proclamation: 1t
has long been the honored custom of
our people to turn in the fruitful au-
tumn of the year to Almighty God for
his many blessings and mercies to US
as a nation. The year that is now
drawing to a close since we last
observed our day of national thanks
giving has been, while a year Of dis
cipline because of the mighty forces
of war and of change which have dis
turbed the world, also a year of spec
ial blessing for us. 1t has been
vouchsafed to us to remain at peace,
with honor and in some part to succor
the suffering supply the needs Of those
who are in want. We have been
privileged by u own peace and self
control in some degree to steady the
counsels and shape the hopes and pur-
poses of g. day of fear and distress.
Our people have looked upon their
w life as a nation with a deeper
comprehension, a fuller realization of
their responsibilities as we'll as of
their blessings and a keener n of
the moral and practical significance of
what their part among the nations OF
the world may come to be. The hurt

industrial and commercial affairs have

has been supplied with Instrumental
tiles and the m of the world
with new channels of trade and inter
course. The Panama canal has been
opened to the commerce of the ma
tions. The two continents Of Ameri-
ca have been bound in closer ties of
friendship. New instrumentalities of
international trade have been created
which will be also instrumentalities
OF acquaintance, intercourse and NUT
ual service. Never before have the
people of the United States been so
situated for their w advantage or
the advance of their neighbors, or so
them feel the more fully and see the
more clearly their mutual inter-de-
pendance upon n another and has
stirred the total helpful cooperation
such as they have seldom practiced
before. They have been quickened
by a great moral stimulation. Their
unmistakable ardor for peace, their
earnest pity and disinterested sympa-
thy for those who are suffering, their
readiness to help and to think of the
needs of others has revealed them to
themselves as we'll as to the world.
Our crops will feed all who need food;

RESPONSIVENESS of our business men
will serve other nations as we'll as
equipped to serve themselves and
mankind. Now, therefore,, l, Wood
row Wilson, president of the United
States of America, do hereby desig-
nate the twenty-sixth day of Novem-
Der, next, as a day of thanksgiving
and prayer, and invite the people
throughout the land to cease from
their wonted occupations and in their
several homes and places Of worship
render thanks to Almighty God.
