SOLDIERS WILL NOT
LOSE Land RIGHTS
Will Even be Permitted to Prove up
by Advertising in District in
Which Land Lies.

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 13.-Home-
steaders in Uncle Sans military
service will not lose their rights
through failure to make annual pay
ments when due, announces Com
missioner Tallman OF the general
land office. Local land offices are
instructed to make request for these
payments, but upon advice from the
soldier or sailor that he is unable to
meet them, an extension is to be
granted. Credit is given by the gov
ernment for the length of time in
service, which is held equivalent to
residence and cultivation in final
proof on the homestead. IL wound
ed or disabled through disease from
actual service, the homesteader
nevertheless gets credit for the
term Of his enlistment. In case Of
death his heirs may make proof
forthwith without making residence
or further proof.
A. soldier may prove up during the
term Of his enlistment by advertis-
ing his proof in the district where
his land lies, the witness testifying
on the day Of proof, but the soldier
having the privilege of testifying
before any officer authorized to ad-
minister oaths, wherever he may
chance to be stationed. To obviate
possibility Of contest, the local land
offices request thot homesteaders
Immediately notify them when they
are called into service.

DR.. GARFIELD WEAK ON
GEOGRAPHY.

At last the mystery OF the Monday
closing order to border line cities in
South Dakota. has been explained.
Either DR.. Harry Garfield, or some
Of his assistants, didn't know that
Fargo and Grand Forks were in
North Dakota. They thought these
cities were in South Dakota.
Representative Steenerson, point
ing out the injustice of closing stores
in Moorhead and East Grand Forks,
and letting those in Fargo and Grand
Forks run, secured a promise from
the fuel administration that the
order would be extended to include
cities within three miles of the Min
nesOta state line in North Dakota.
He was chagrined to receive letters
from Moorhead and East Grand
Forks that no such order was issued.
He inquired. The order had been
sent to South Dakota They thought
Fargo and Grand Forks were in
South Dakota.
Let's see. Wasn't 1t Williams col
.lege that gave DR.. Garfield to Uncle
Sam? Why not establish a course in
American geography at Williams,

IMMIGRATION
TO GET BOOST
Driscoll Real Estate Agent
Says Seed-Feed Act Will
Encourage Settlers

Bismarck, N. d., Feb. 13.-North
Dakota's seed and feed bonding act
is to prove a big factor in encourag-
ing immigration to this state in the
opinion of L. II. Langley of Driscoil,
one OF Burleigh county's most sue
cessful real estate men.
i cannot remember a season, in
which have received so early such
Q large number Of queries as to
Burieigh county lands" said Mr..
Langley. They all seem to be bona.
hde prospective purchasers, real
farmers who have been hiring out or
renting in Minnesota, Iowa or Illinois.
They are all interested in the seed
and feed bonding act, and am
sending them copies as fast as I am
able to obtain them
"One of these men, coming here
with only a little money, ordinarily
would have little to do anything with
after making his initial payment on
his land and putting up a few shacks.
Under the seed bonding act, as
understand 1t, these follows, If they
are on the ground early enough, will
receive the same consideration as
anyone else, and the money which
otherwise they would be required to
tie up in seed can be used in buying
equipment to break up their land and
get the seed into the ground.
The fact that the government is
itself in supplying pure
seed also is helpful, as Is the guaran-
teeing of prices for 1918 wheat and
the certainty that other cereals win
bring a big return. / look for the
biggest rush of real farmers to North
Dakota during the next few weeks
that this state has ever seen, and
believe we will see by far the biggest
increase in new cultivated acreage
that any one year has ever brought"

Klkali Makes Soap
Bad for Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
