WHAT ckTARRA IS

It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form Of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
TO correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with tue
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is q
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
6omalcohol or any harmful drugs. Tsyit,

A new law went into effect July
LIST, governing auction sales. The
law is in substance that any person
who holds sale of personal prop
erty must notify the county treas
urer six days prior to date of sale.
1t is then the duty of the treasurer
to notify the sheriff in case there
are any unpaid taxes against said
property, and the sheriff must take
steps to collect same before the sale
is held.
One of the surest indications of
the development and upbuilding Of
Sioux county is the number of
schools that has been established
since the county was organized a
little over three years ago. Then
there was not school in the whole
county, while today Fort Yates dis
trict along has nine school houses.
The holding Of the Teachers Insti-
} tute and school officers meeting at
Fort Yates last week was an ex-
! emplificntion Of the progress that
has been made in this direction.
Good schools attract desirable class
of new settlers and is the best in
vestment a community can make.

WATERING PLANTS
DROP BY DROP

Lucien Daniel. French botanist, has
made some experiments with cabbages,
chicory, lettuce. &C., which prove that
they thrive f:- better by system Of con-
tinuous watering than by drenching tho
soil thoroughly every other day.
The new method, which is simplicity IL.
self, depends upon the law Of capillary
attraction. AS presented to the Acad-
envy OF Sciences in Paris, it consists or
placing near each plant a large-mouthed
jar containing water, in which Is dipped
one end OF strip OF linen or cotton, the
other end Of which lies near the plant.
Mr.. Daniel determined the exact amount
OF water required by any given plant for
its best development, and proved that In
general this uninterrupted supply of wat
er, drop by drop, gave infinitely better
results than the usual method Of inter-
mittent drenching. and with a minimum
expenditure Of water.
This suggests a way Of keeping house
plants watered when one is away for a
few days. If one had large enough pail
ono could keep them thus for weeks
though. Of course at the risk OF mosqui-
toes breeding in the water.

Something in the way Of an alterna-
Der. One would imagine that this
material would wear the hands out
sooner than anything else, but this is
not the case There seems to be pre-
JUDGE against wearing gloves for golf,
but they are really quite easy to play
in, although it takes a few weeks to
get thoroughly accustomed to them.
Gloves have the advantage Of keeping
the hands warm, as we'll as preventing
them from becoming sore, cracked, or
blistered.
A firm grip for the feet is just as
important as good grip for the hands.
It has been said that the ordinary
nails which are put in golf shoes are
not much good. Gymnasium shoes are
suggested for dry weather but are
practically useless II the ground be-
comes at all wet. 1t is a mistake to
play in gymnasium shoes or those with
no heels and then suddenly to change
to thick soled boots, for when these
have studs or nails fitted the player
stands quite an inch higher. A diff
erence like this is apt to alter the
game Of any one considerably. and
one golfer who tried 1t sliced all his
drives until he got acquainted to his
higher position.
A player should always see that he
is thoroughly comfortable and should
avoid carrying bulky things in his
pockets, such as balls. which often
get in the way when approaching and
putting. These articles should be
placed in charge Of the caddie during
the round or failing a caddie, they
should be put into the pocket Of the
bag. No golfing equipment Is COM
plete without rag or duster to dry
the grips in the event Of rain, or to
wipe the hands If they should perspire
in hot weather.
