Some of the farmers living near
| Devils lake are complaining of the
deer, saying that the animals are eat
ing apple tree twigs, especially on
the young trees. There seems to be
an impression in other quarters that
these farmers like venison, and want
a chance to kill the deer without
mourning the penalties of the law,
which now protects all deel in Sank
county. There have been a great
many violations of the game and fish
laws in Sank county.
Gen. Calls Circle will meet,
next Thursday evening, at the Masonic
social rooms. This privilege is
granted temporarily, as we had no
place to meet, and because our charit-

winter and spring months. We, as
an order, appreciate their generosity,
the more so because they do not let
the room for money, but because they
act, as we'll preach, charity, and
we will assure them as an order we
will not trespass upon the privilege
granted longer than necessary
