American Airplane Superior


 With orders from foreign coun- tries now being placed here for $40, OOO,O 900 worth of heavier than air flying machines. with the American plane recognized as supreme all over the world, and with American manufactur- CTS planning now for a plane business next year that will make the manufacture of flying ma chimes one of our really import. ant industries, a vision of flying machine production not far re- moved from our automobile pro- duction is seen by Henry Wood house of the Areo Club of Amer ica.
 MT. Woodhouse, whose know ledge of the industry and whose standing in the craft give his as- sertions authority, believes that the manufacture of airplanes has finally grown beyond the confines of haphazard production in this country into a definitely and well established industry.
 The recent appropriations of S13, 900, 900 for airplanes for the United States army and &, 900, 900 for the United States navy have to a degree helped in fixing the status of the airplane here, Mir. Woodhouse believes. but as general thing these have been discounted by other develop ments.
 And yet it is highly signiti- cant that our navy is now buying in futures, said MT. Wood house. Formerly, our own coun- try was the most hide bound in buying on the market. but now it has followed the lead of other countries and is placing orders for future delivery. The other countries have had to do it, for they had to have the machines, and the only way they could get them was to place orders ahead.
 "Airplane orders to the value of about $2O, 900, 900 have been placed here, and one order that know of personally has just been given to one firm for $6. 900, 900. Other countries have got to come to us, for they have had to admit our supremacy in this line ot manufacture. It is not because they are so busy on the other side turning out shrapnel and the like that they can't bother with airplanes, but it is because they get a better product here that foreign countries are rushing here to place really tremendous orders for planes.

Hearing Held
On Ditch No. %
Viewers Appointed; Question of
Tiled or Open Ditch
Discussed

The preliminary hearing on
the repairing of the big county
ditch No. 9 was held before the
county board at Redwood Falls
Tuesday. There were a large
number interested in the ditch
who attended the hearing. There
was but little if any opposition
offered against the reconstruc-
tion Of the old ditch, but there
was considerable of a fight made
against the proposition of tiling
the upper half of the ditch.
County ditch No. 9 is an old
ditch which was made far too
shallow in the first place to give
suitable drainage. It is located
south, west and northwest of
this village. The ditch also failed
to include a large territory that
should have been taken in. The
new survey which includes $500
acres, calls for the replacement
of a great part of the open
ditch with large tile from 40
inch down, the deepening of the
rest of the open ditch, and the
construction of about % miles
of tile branches and laterals.
The estimated cost is $123, 900.
The ditch will require about 1886
carloads of tile, which would
make a train three miles in
length.
Wednesday morning the board
appointed viewers to view the
ditch according to the engineers
report. The question Of tiling
was not really decided by the
board at this time, but a large
number want tile and the engi-
neer recommended tile and his
report is based or that system,
and the board decided to nave
it viewed on that plan. At the
final hearing the viewers report
is filed all questions will be de-
cided. Morgan Messenger.

VAN SAINT FOR SENATOR?
Friends Believe Former Cover
nor Is Entitled to Place on
Ticket; Ran Next to
Eberhart

Former Governor S. R. Van
SAINT will enter the senatorial
race, was a report from Mime
apolis Tuesday. Van SAINT ran
next to Eberhart in the dele
gate race, but 10000 votes be-
hind the leader. Eberhart re-
ceived 49,931 and Van SAINT
1926.
Friends Present Name
Mr.. Van SAINT has been men,
toned repeatedly for the sena-
torship by his Minneapolis
friends, and he has as often
stated that he had no intention
of being a candidate. Just now,
however, he is in Florida and
the boomers think it is good
time to bring forth his name.
Entitled to Place
They say that he was not in
the delegate race merely for the
honor any more than Eberhart
was, and that since he made
such a fine showing of votes
while absent from the state and
making ma campaign, he has as
good a title to a place ON the
senatorial ticket as has Eber-
hart, who remained at home and
made a campaign.

are predicting that Congressman
C. A. Lindbergh will file for SEN

Tablets Often Contain Danger.
Gus Drugs That Have Deleteri-
GUS Effect on System and
Sometimes Result in
Death

Suddenly, mysteriously, Han
nah Harper, aged sixteen years
and five months, died in her bed
the night of March IL.
Mrs. Harper, i'll herself, heard
the coroner's verdict on her
daughters death. In agony of
self-blame, she moaned:
"My ignorance caused it"
Mrs. Harper was thirty-six.
She had been rosy and buxom.
All their lives she and Hannah
had needed only casual advice
from DR.. Anderson. But last
July the mother developed slight
headaches-not serious enough
for the doctor. For week the
headache annoyed her daily.
Mrs. Rowe, a neighbor, gave her
a small dose of headache rem
edy. Magically the pain fled.
A few days later her head
ached again. From the drug
store her maid brought some of
Mrs. Rowe's remedy. Again the
quick relief. Why, she thought,
bother DR.. Anderson about a
headache so soon relieved?
One afternoon in midi October,
four months after she had first
taken Mrs. Rowe's remedy,
though her day at home, Mrs.
Harper lay on the couch in cap
and kimOna.

Weeks passed. Ann still wor-
ried over her mistress health.
By January Mr.. Harper was so
alarmed he took his wife South.
When they reached their hotel
she gave way to violent convul-
sive and hysterical seizures,
with vomiting.
The hotel physician arrived
Immediately. He found her
quiet, but exhausted, in cold
perspiration, with ITO pulse. He
questioned her closely about her
decline.
He seemed puzzled. Then he
saw the medicine box on the
table by the bed and read the
label.

claimed the doctor to Mr.. Har-

Mid-February Mrs. Harper
crept home for slow recupera-
tion.
The afternoon of March IL
Hannah returned from school as
usual. Her head ached, she said,
and she had cold. After din

equally guilty. Because nine

OLDER BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at severity, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
