Died ofPremature
Old Age!
(BY ". N. PIERCE, NJ. d.

How many times we hear OF compare
lively young persons passing away when
they should have lived to be 20 or so
years OF age. This fatal work is usually
attributed to the kidneys, az, when the
kidneys degenerate, it causes auto-in-
toxication. The more injurious the poisons
passing thru the kidneys, the quicker
will those noble organs be degenerated,
and the sooner they decay.
To prevent premature old age and
promote long life, tighten the work of
the kidneys by drinking plenty Of pure
water all day long, and occasionally TAX
ing a little Anuric before meals. This
can be obtained at almost any drug store.
Anuric will overcome such conditions as
rheumatism, dropsical swellings, cold ex-
tremities, scalding and burning urine and
sleeplessness due to constant arising.

Better Milk for Babies.

Better milk for babies and adults in
this state is expected to be the result
of the tuberculin test for dairy cows
which is now obtainable free, since
the enactment of the law providing
for that purpose by the late legisla-
ture. Upon petition of three patrons
of any dairy the Live Stock Sanitary
state expense, Of the COW composing
the herd and the owner will be under
no expense for this examination. : If
any tubercular cows are found in the
herd. the state destroys them and the
owner is reimbursed. Payment is
made on the basis Of one-half the APP
praised value. with a limit Of $50 for
one COW, the appraisement being made
the same as for CHAMBERS and other
diseased live stock in which indem-
nifty is made for owners. This means
that the owners as we'll as patrons
will take a greater interest in the
purity of the dairy herds. A number
of cities Of the state have made ordi-
nances requiring the examination OF
cows, in which cases the owners had
to stand the expense, which burden
is removed and will have it's eff.
feet in improved dairy herds over the
state. The act carries an a%ppropria
ton Of $4,000 for use between now
and the LIST of July and $500 per
year after that time, which will allow
the work to be taken up at once. OF
the appropriation $4,000 is for cattle
destroyed, and the rest for expenses of
testing.

Heavy ~lmmiaration.

The state immigration department
reports that indications are for a
heavy immigration into this state this
spring. The movement has already
started. but is being delayed by the
winter weather. AS soon as the snow
leaves the movement is expected to
be heavier than for a number Of years.
Much of this immigration is for the
Missouri valley and the western part
of the state. where land prices are
lower than they are along the eastern
line but there is a strong demand for
lands for rental all over the state,
both in the eastern section and in the
west about Belle Fourche, where rent
ers desire to take up the raising OF
sugar beets to supply the sugar refn-
ing plant which is being constructed
at that place. But the rental demand.
while stronger in the east and extreme
west, is heavier than for any former
year in tn. state, every section feeling
the effects OF this movement.

sweaters are just the thing for these
cool lays. Those who do not own

division time their departure for

view Sunday afternoon before Sem

cor General William A. Mann. This
will probably be the last review of
the first national guardsmen to go
