State Auditor Preus' suggestion
that the state manufacture dynamite
and sell it at cost to settlers in
Northern Minnesota, to be used in
clearing cut-over lands, is we'll worth
considering. There are millions of
acres of some of the best farming
land in the state still awaiting set

strewn stumps, of which it must be
cleared before the land can be Gull
tivated. This can be effected with
dynamite at nominal expense, if the
dynamite could be had at cost. And
the state is the party to furnish it
on those terms. It would even he
a good business proposition if the
state were to remove the stumps at
its own expense and sell the land to
settlers afterward, adding the cost
of clearing to the price of the land.
Such a step would add immensely to
the development of the state and
easily double our population within
the next decade; and it would open
up vast empire for a desirable class
of people and convert Northern Min

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take glass Of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
F ~ lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus

Our Slogan:
"Benidji $4,000

Should Be Represented.

One of the most important meet
ings of the Northern Minnesota De-
velopment association is to be held
at Coleraine, the model city of the
iron range, on Thursday and Friday
of next week and it is important that
Bemidji have as large a delegation
present as possible.
Next December, the ninth and
tenth, the winter business session of
the association will be held in Be-
midi, the birthplace of the organi-
zation which has played such PROM
inent part in the progress and won
derful advance of this section. This
to boosters of Bemidji to attend the
Coleraine meeting in large numbers
as the interest shown by this city
will have much to do with the sue
cess of the December convention. 1t
is hoped that every man able to do
so will go to Coleraine.
There is every indication that the
meeting will be we'll attended, and
it ought to be. A program of ex-
ceptional merit has been provided
and the two days of the meeting will
be we'll filled, and many matters Of
Importance to Northern Minnesota
development will be discussed, one
of which will be as to in what man
ner the reclamation revolving fund
amendment may best be placed be-
fore the people in order that it may
receive sufficient votes to cause it's
passage.
COleraine's committee has cOmplet-
ed arrangements for the entertain
ment of the visitors and an enjoyable
stay there is certain. The delegates
will be afforded opportunity to visit
the million-dollar washing plant of
the Oliver Iron Mining company and
also to inspect the methods of open
pit mining.
On one day of the convention Gov
ernor Hammond, several state Off
Gals and large number of senators
and representatives will attend the
sessions of the association, Coleraine
being one of the places to be visited
by the party during it's excursion of
Northern Minnesota. For this rea-
son, if none other, the meeting should
be attended by a large delegation
from Bemidji and every other city

MODEL STREET SIGNS.
New Type Great Help "a. the Public
~ Of New York City.

New Type a Great Help to, the Public
Of New York City.
The problem of providing street signs
of the best possible type for Manhat-
tan is one to which Borough President
Marks has addressed himself.
He insisted upon finding if possible
a type Of sign that would enable PEG
pie to determine definitely and at a
glance the name of the street on which
they might be and also the name of
the cross street toward which they
might be looking; that these signs
should be legible at a considerabl dis
lance and, furthermore. that they
should be so placed in relation to
street lights as to be readily visible at
night as well as in the daytime.
AS a result type has been evolved
which has met the exacting require
ments laid down by President Marks.
The new signs, like the old, are placed
on lampposts at street intersections on
diagonally opposite corners. They con
sist Of steel plate twenty-five inches
long and seven and a half inches high,
having at the center Of the top semi
circular projection eleven and one
eighth inches wide at the base, with a
radius of five and one-eighth inches.
On the main body of the sign plate is
indicated the name of the avenue or
street; on the semicircular projection
at the top is indicated the name of
the cross street. The lettering is white
and four inches high on dark blue
background enameled on the plate.
The sign plate is held in a bronze
colored skeleton steel holder, into
which it is inserted from the top. The
plates are reversible and can be seen
from either side, while the holder is so
designed as to afford a rectangular
framing for the name of the avenue or
street and an oval framing for the
name Of the cross street The holder
or frame is made as fiat as possible, all
unnecessary ornamentation being omit
ted, not only in order to enhance the
dignity and good appearance of the
sign, but also In order to prevent as far
as possible the face Of the sign from
being darkened by shadows such as
are cast by the projecting ornamental
ton on signs Of other types.
Now, for the first time in the his
tory Of New York city, through the use
Of this new type of street sign, which
gives double information on a single
sign, it is possible, either by day or
by night, for people travelling along a
New York street, particularly those
people riding in trolley cars or other
fast moving vehicles, quickly and pos
itively to determine from a consider
able distance exactly which street they
are on and which cross street they are
approaching.

AMERICAN WORKERS LOSE
$75O,0O0 YEARLY

|, washington, D. c., June 4.-Three-
quarters of a billion dollars, at a
very conservative estimate, is the
annual money tax levied by ILL
health upon wage-workers in the
United States in the form of lost
wages and expenses of sickness. The
greater part of this gigantic tax falls
upon those workers who are least
able to afford it, since sickness has
been found to be much more pre-
valent among low-paid workers than
among those whose incomes are SUI
ficient to provide sanitary housing,
adequate food and favorable sur
roundings in the home and in the
place of work.
These conclusions are among those
given in a report on sickness insur:-
ance to the federal Commission on
Industrial Relations which was pre-
pared in cooperation with the United
States Public Health service. The
report was prepared by Surgeon B..
Is. Warren, of the Public Health ser
vice, who was detailed as sanitary ad-
visor to the commission, and Edgar
Sydenstricker, a member of the COM
missions staff.
The estimate given above is based
on a careful examination of the sick
records of nearly a million workers
in this country and is found to cor
respond very closely to the figures al
forded by the sick records for a long
period of years of about twenty-six
million workers in Germany and
Great Britain. It includes, the re-
port points out, merely the loss of
wages during illness and the expen-
SEES of medical attention, and does not
take into consideration the impair
ment of the workers efficiency and
vigor, or the cost of illness of men,
bers of his family.
The average wage-earner in the
United States loses approximately
nine days every year on account of
sickness, much of which is prevent
able, states the report. The real sig
nificance of these conclusions lie in
the fact, as shown by statistics from
a large number Of governmental and
other investigations, that fully one
half Of the wage-earners in this
country do not receive incomes suf-
ficient to maintain healthful condi-
tions of living. All experience in
the treatment Of disease and in the
study of the economic conditions of
sick persons agree that poverty and
sickness go hand in hand, the re-
port says, and that it is among these
low paid workers and their families
that the highest morbidity rate is
found to prevail. Sickness has been
found to be one of the principal
causes of unemployment and a prin-
cipal factor in recruiting the army
of destitute and dependant persons.
The cost to the industries of the
country resulting from, the. ILL
health of employees cannot be esti-
mated, asserts the report, nor is it
possible to indicate the tremendous
cost to the nation.
