SHALL We SAVE OUR RIvER.BANK7

Henry Eidam is trying to i'm
prove our streets, by raising the
grade in front of his store and
residence. The object of it is to
turn the water from melting SHOWS
and rains in the opposite direction
so that they wont flow down the
river bank In front of his place.
This now necessitates a like
work on the part of owners of the
two lots east of him Cloth owned
by non r%esidents) and Mrs. L..
Oliver, otherwise the waters will
flow oyer the rivelbank ia front
of Mrs. divers PostoMce and
residence, which river bank. is
dangerously near the center of the
street. Now if Mrs. Oliver fills
up the street in front of her place,
it will compel Mr.. Eidam to build
his grade up still higher.
And SO it goes in these
piping times of peace" Of
course, that amt much peace: but
the makers of Forest City politics
claim that there would be much
bigger ''war'' in case we should
organize a civil township incorpor-
alton. "You pays your taxes and
takes your choice between back
wardness and progress.
Meanwhile other portions of
Forest City are also left to the pri-
vate grievances of certain folks
who, for fear of having their taxes
increased by a few cents, do not
take any interest in lettering CON
ditions in our midst.
Even as a suburb of Cheyenne
Agency it would seem that Forest
City people at least might be in
quiring into something better.

A SCHEME Of CRAFT.
Or, Else There's Something
Rotten in Denmark"

OONNNA CO
in the Congressional Record, in
which he severely scores the In
dian Bureau, an appendix of the
e. S. Dept of the Interior, Wash
ington, Dist. of Columbia, charg-
ing it with a large share of the
misappropriations, or misapp!ica-
tion, rather, of Indian funds.
The Senator, evidently, has not
yet had much actual contact or
personal experience with the Chey
enne River Reservation, opposite
Forest City, or he would not have
made the mistake of saying that
the S35 900 tuberculosis Hospital
that was built at Cheyenne Agency
by the government was located ''35
to 40 miles off from a railroad.
AS a matter of fact the hospital is
not over 20 to % miles from the
CM&StPRy at LaPlant.
(And then, did not the Chicago
& North Western Ry Co engage
to extend their track from Gettys-
burg to Forest City in consider
alton of the hospital being built at
the Agency? Anyhow, such was
the report, on good authority, just
previous to the construction of the
building.)
The Senator makes the charge
that out of one appropriation for
the benefit of a certain reservation,
of 1915. 600, the Indians got for sub
sistence, or food and other sup
plies, only 1886.
He also tells of Agencies being
left totally without fuel for the
boarding school in winter. Here
at Cheyenne Agency, the hospital
had to close down for lack of fuel.
Regarding the handling of the
Indians individual moneys, the
Senator says:
"Now, let us see how the individ-
ual money of the Indian is handled
in my state, and l think in most
Of the other states, SO that you
may know with what he must con-
tend. Suppose an Indian has, say
$500 of his own moneys This is
sent to the superintendent by the
Indian Office with instructions to
deposit in some local bank for the
benefit of the Indian. These banks
are located in various parts of the
country. many miller from where
the Indian lives. The deposits
made for the Indian are under the
control Of the various superintend-
ents. Should an Indian need mon
ey with which to buy groceries,.
clothing. medicine or anything for
the support Or comfort of his fam
lily. or any of the necessities Of life
OF for any farm tools, or anything
else he may need. the first thing he
has to do is to hitch up his team
and drive from 5 to rs miles to the |
agency in order to get an order for
q little of his own money with
which to bny the necessary articles.
After he gets to the agency it is

Died ofPren1afure
Old Age!
(BY v. M. PIERCE, M. d.

How many times we hear Of compare
lively young persons passing away when
they should have lived to be 20 or 80
years of age. This fatal work is usually
attributed to the kidneys, az, when the
kidneys degenerate, it causes auto-'n-
toMcation. The more injurious the poisons
passing thru the kidneys, the quicker
will those noble organs be degenerated,
and the sooner they decay:
It is thus the wisest policy, to prevent
premature old age and promote long lite,
to tighten the work Of the kidneys. This
can be done by drinking plenty OF pure
water all day long, and occasionally tx
ing little Anuric before meals. Inns
can be obtained at almost any drug store.
Anuric will overcome such conditions az
rheumatism, dropsical swellings, cold ex;
tremities, scalding and burning urine and
sleeplessness due to constant arising from
bed at night.

Windham County Farmers Association
News

The Farmers Association is cooper
ating with the Connecticut Agricultu.
raj College and the State Food Com
mittee in securing information to de-
termine whether the number of dairy
cattle is decreasing, and to obtain
from at least twenty farms in Wind
ham county the actual cost of milk
production at the present time. This
work has been requested, due TO the
fact that a number of dairymen are
selling their herds, others are reducing
the mum Der of cows they keep, and the
surplus of milk at the present time is
small in comparison TO usual supply
at this season of the year.
A little serious thinking will make
one realize just what it might mean on
New England farms and TO New Eng
land consumers if conditions should
force the COWS from our farms. A re-
adjustment would take many years, TO
say nothing OF the actual loss involved.
This investigation as TO dairy condi-
tions is being carried on in the six
New England states at the same time,
and it is expected that some fairly ac
curate information will be obtained.
Farmers will be visited and figures OBJ
tanned on their business for the last
year, and the cost of milk production
will be determined from these figures.
We feel sure that farmers in general
will be interested in this movement,
and IL asked to assist in contributing
to the investigation will be glad 10 do
so.
