YOU CAN'T EARN MONEY
WHEN YOU'RE Laid lip

There are lot of people in this town who
cannot afford to be sick. Perhaps none of
you feel that you can, but certainly some
OF you cant, for as soon as you are sick,
your wages stop and worry and debts be-
gin to pile up. The sensible thing for you
to do, as soon as you feel rundown and
worn out, no matter what the cause, is to
take something just as quick as you can to
build up strength and health. Make your
self more comfortable and provide against
serious Sickness
We dent believe there is any other
medicine made that will do as much
towards saving your health and thus help
ing you save your money as Rexall Olive
Oil Emulsion. It is medicine that gets
right at the trouble and relieves it by ton
ing the nerves, enriching the blood, and
giving new strength and health to the
whole body. It doesn't do this by means of
alcohol or habit forming drugs, because it
contains none Its strength and health
giving power is due to pure Olive Oil and
the Hypophosphites, long endorsed by Sue
cessfu1 physicians, the one for its food
value, the other for its tonic value. Here,
for the first time, they are combined, and
the result is real nerve, blood and BODY

the same time he points out that the
action taken binds the county for
two years, and that the county only
contributes part of the salary of

A Letter From Reiqstad
Kerkhoven, Rt. 3, Feb. 26, 1911

Kerkhoven, Rt. 3, Feb. 26, 1914.
Editor Of Willmar Tribune:
Will you permit me just a little
space in your paper for the following
purpose. In your last issue, read a
letter written by one of our towns
men, Mr.. S. A. Syverson, calling at
tention to the people of the Second
Commissioners District, which have
the honor of representing as men,
Der of the Board of County Commits
sioners of this County, concerning the
action taken by said Board relative
to the so-called County Agricultural
Agent. In that letter occasion is TAX
en- to charge the County Board with
creating. the Office of Agricultural Ag-
ent for the County, and by said act,
the County Board did not practice
economy, leaving the inference that
l thereby did not perform my duty to
which my district is entitled.
In the same issue, The Tribune
comments on this letter editorially,
and in so doing states: ''That the
present incumbent for the Second Dis
trict was not particularly a cham
pion of such action, but yielded only
after the matter had been thoroughly
discussed" This would lead to the
conclusion that I voted in favor of the
resolution.
feel that an explanation is due on
account of said letter and the editor
ial. In the first place the County
Board did not create this Office to
which Mr.. Syverson refers. The only
part which the County Board did, was
to make the necessary appropriation
required by the law in the assistance
of paying part of the salary for such
agent. In the second place, this mat
ter was before the Board at two meet
ings and at each session. / was there
and opposed the appropriation not on
ly in the discussion of the affair, but
also when the vote was taken. I con-
sidered it a needless expense upon
the County, and felt that my duty was
to practice economy, so far as with
in my power as representative Of my
district. The record made Of the
votes cast on this question, will show
that l voted against it and did not,
as the editorial refers to, yield after
the matter had been thoroughly dis
cussed." This can be verified by ex-
amining the records in the County
Auditors Office, II anyone 50 desires.
From the fact that Mr.. Syverson's
article sets out the necessity Of 8
change in the representation for this
district solely on the ground OF not
practicing economy on account Of the
assumed position that should have
taken with reference to the agricul.
