A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

1t is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at
tention as they control the other org
ans to remarkable degree and do a
tremendous amount of work in remov-
ing the poisons and waste matter from
the system by filtering the blood.
During the winter months especially,
when we live an indoor life, the kid
neys should receive some assistance
when needed, as We take less exercise,
drink less water and often eat more
rich heavy food, thereby forcing the
kidneys to do more work than Nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting Or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion,
rheumatism, may be weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid
neys require help Immediately to
avoid more serious trouble.
Many physicians claim that an her
bal medicine containing no minerals or
opiates has the most healing influence
An ideal herbal compound that has
had most remarkable success as a kid
ney and bladder remedy is DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root
You may receive a sample bottle If
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, n Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention

BUilt Not Sufficient for Increased Attendance.

900 was paid, temporary dining hall
was erected and the school opened
January 4, 1908, Notwithstanding the
buildings were without lights, water
and sewerage. Within thirty days al
ter the opening, lights had been in
stalled and water was in all the build
ings.
No money was on hand to purchase
furniture, yet the merchants of the
city extended credit to the amount of
about $4,000, That was in short
while paid from funds that had been
raised on the part of the citizens of
Americus and Sumter county.
At this stage of the history of the
school, counting the contributions
made by the city of Americus and the
county Of Sumter, our properties in the
school were valued at about $4,000.
Today the plant, at the lowest estimate,
including buildings, is worth $4,000
to 100000 1t would bring the latter
price easily if put upon the market
and sold at prices prevailing in this
section of the state. Today the school
is modern in its every department.
Good Salaries to Graduates
The time has come when graduates
that are leaving the school each year
are earning more money the year fo'-
lowing their graduation than the state
contributes for the support of the
school. One of the graduates of the
class of 1913 for the first three months
beginning September 1st of the same
year, was able to earn a larger salary
than is paid the principal of the school
ard is still employed in the same WORK.
Two other graduates of the same class
are earning as much money as is paid
to the highest paid teacher on the
faculty.

Problems in the Beginning
By December 18th, 1907, two build
as had been erected and there was
debt on the cost of building of over
ID 900, and there had not a piece OF
rniture been bought; nor was there
iy place that could be used for a din

graduates represent only a very small
percentage of those who at some
time attend the school. The average
number of graduates probably is not
over fourteen, and one year was rs
low as eleven.
Notwithstanding that the school, on
account of it's graduates and those who
fail to return each year, is turning out
men and women who earn the first
year after leaving the school possibly
$4,000, the state is contributing only
$4,000 for it's support. Since January
1st, two graduates of the school have
been in positions paying $1,000 each.
One other student has a $500 position
awaiting his graduation in May.
: Well Equipped Shops
1t is not possible to tell of the WORK
as it is done in this department 1t is
only necessary to say that young men
leaving this school are competent cleo
tricians, competent plumbers, compo-
tent mechanics, and can do any of the
general work to be required on andl
around farm.
Domestic Arts and Science
The domestic arts and science de- |
partment has suffered for the want Of
equipment, yet the work done in the
department is not excelled in any in
sitution with a better equipment.
The farm furnishes each week to!
the dining hall produce estimated to
be worth $500, or over $4,000 per
month. No charge is made for this pro-
duce against the dormitory fund. The
estimated gross returns from the farm
for the last year is $4,000. The crops

Needs of the School

The school has reached the limits of
its capacity. Never can more students
be admitted until more room has beea
furnished by the state or the people.
The school stands greatly in need of
funds for the establishment of a mod
ern dairy and the purchase of improy-
ed breeds of cattle

The Legislature

During the year 1907, on account of
the funds not having been called for,
quite an amount accrued that had
been appropriated to the eleven dis
trct schools, reverted back into the
treasury. On account of the urgent
need of this school and practically ev-
cry one of the district schools, as prin-
cipal of the Third District school and
as chairman of the Association of Prin-
cipals, I respectfully ask that the
question of refunding the amount that
reverted back into the treasury be con-
sidered by the legislature upon their
convening in June. Respectfully sub
mitted j. NJ. COLLUM.

For Violating Game Laws.

Three arrests were made last week
for violation Of the game laws. One
arrest was made at Bottineau for al
lowing dog to run in the field, SIM
liar one at Garske and an arrest made
at Sheyenne for shooting chickens.
Most of the salaried game wardens
have been set to work for the fall
season, Mr.. McCutcheon said, and
those not working now start Aug. 1, so
by Saturday the game warden will be
heard in the field.
The game protection in this section
of North Dakota seems to be counting,
for the ducks and chickens are thick
err than ever and seem to show no
signs of being disturbed. Re 49,.
When a game warden comes upon q
flock of chickens or ducks that fly up
the minute they see him and get out Of
sight as fast as they can, the warden
generally stops in that locality and
looks around, for he knows that the
birds have been molested and it will
pay him to investigate. The action Of
the birds alone is sufficient to tell him
whether he had better work a certain
locality or not.

McCutcheOn Hot on Trail.

E. B. McCutcheon, chief game war

Of the state last week by violation of
the federal game laws. Two sooners
in one of the eastern counties shot six
ducks, and according to the federal
game law, if captured and convicted,
can be fined sl00 for each bird. Mr..
McC utcheon chased them thru Mime
sofa and expects to arrest them in an
other state whittier they went.

Worm Works in Wheat

Several farmers have complained
that small worm is doing some dam
age in the wheat fields. An Indepen-
dent representative visited several
fields and saw where the worms had
been working, altho we did not find
that much damage had been done in
any particular field. The worm may
be found in certain wheat plants at
about the second joint above the
ground. They cut off the supply Of
moisture and those plants turn brown

Washington, March 9.--The final
chapter in the iron workers cam
paign to destroy open shops" with
dynamite and nitro-glycerine was
written today by the Supreme court
in refusing to review the penitentiary
sentences imposed upon Frank NJ.
Ryan, president of the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers, and 90 of the associ-
atoms members.
Senator Kern. leading counsel for
the iron workers a. their trial in the
Federal District court at Indianapolis
stated after the Supreme courts &C

pealing TO the president for pardon
for the convicted men.
pardon alone stands between
them and the penitentiary.
Solicitor Genera Davis probably
will request the court tomorrow to
certify its action to the United States

The labor men were convicted tech
nically of conspiracy to carry dyna-
mite and nitro-glycerine on interstate
passenger trains. In furtherance OF
this conspiracy, i. was charged that
Artie McManigal carried these explos
ives on such trains to Chicago. Tlffin

other cities from coast to coast.
Evidence was presented to show
that one OF the explosions alleged to
have grown out of the conspiracy
was that which destroyed the Los
Angeles Times building.
The conspiracy was alleged TO
have existed from 1906 down to the
Indictment in 1912.
OF the men who appealed to the
Supreme court for a review, Ryan
was given the longest sentence,
seven years. The lower court held
that letters produced In evidence
showed his management of the long
course of destroying open shop"
