UP in CANADA
FORMER LAKE COUNTY CITIZEN
TELLS OF WAR CONDITIONS
In HIS LOCALITY.

The Daily Leader is in receipt of
a Letter from VIM. O'Connell, a for
mer resident of Orland township,
now engaged in the business of farm
ing near Neptune, Sask., Can. After
sending greetings to his former
friends here, Mr.. O'Connell says:
Win the war Is the slogan here.
Everything and all things work for
that end, the same as in the states.
Red Cross work without end. The
United States are opening the eyes of
the world by their spirit, determine
ton and extraordinary preparations
now they are In the war. Canada
has done big, but it seems to fall to
the states to deal the knockout blow,
In nearly all cases the bonafide farm
ar here is allowed exemption from
CONSUMPTION. The people of Canada,
as a rule, boast of belonging to a
democratic country, and the man that
halls from across the ocean as be-
longing to the privileged classes, with
titles of nobility, Is no unduly hon
ored here. We are being put on
short rations here to conserve food,
but people cheerfully respond to ev-
cry call of duty. More than ever be-
fore their love is going to their
neighbors of the south"

LUTHERAN DRIVE
SOUTH DAKOTA'S QUOTA $4,000
GOV. NORBECK GIVES
LITERALLY.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 25.-The pres
emit combined drive carried on by the
Lutheran churches OF the United
States is meeting with wonderful re-
Spouse from all sources. The state
headquarters at Sioux Falls resports
that returns are coming in with very
satisfactory amounts. While the
state quota is $4,000 some individ-
uals are responding nobly. Gov. Nor,
beck has headed the list by donating
$3.50, 500 going to his church In
Pierre. and $3.50 going into the state
fund. The reports from the Sioux
Falls committees. of which there are
some rs or 80, indicates that Sioux
Falls is going to largely oversub'
scribe.
This work Is for the benefit OF, the
Lutheran boys in the various camps
and at the front in the same manner
as the work of the X. C.'s Is for the
benefit of the boys affiliated with
the Roman Catholic church.
Previous reports stated that Gov
Norbeck had donated $3.50 to Siou,
Falls, but later information shows
that 1t was intended as a statewide
contribution.

HER PATRIOTISM
WOMAN OFFERS HAIR FOR USE
OF UNCLE SAM.

Washington. d. c., Feb. 25.-Out
of the many offers of personal sacri-
flee which reach the government, one
made known today attracted more
than usual attention.
1t was an offer to the war depart
ment by Mrs. Bridget Quinn, of Con-
ifer. Pa. to give her hair and her lit
tie daughters hair for use in the mu-
milton factories IL the government
needed them.
Secretary Baker wrote Mrs. Quinn
a personal letter acknowledging her
patriotism. but saying such a sacri-
flee was not at all necessary.
Evidently the woman had heard of
the use of women's hair for betting
on munition machines In Germany.

RETIRED FARMERS
SHOULD WORK, SAYS A MEMBER
OF THE COUNCIL OF
DEFENSE.

Mitchell, Feb. 25.-The idle man
in South Dakota this year is a slack
err" declares w. s. Hill, of Mitchell,
who Is chairman of the committee on
agriculture and labor of the state
council of defense. South Dakota
would not be living up to her respon-
sibility," he says, IF she does not
produce the largest crops in her his
tory, and more hogs, cattle and sheep
than ever before.
Every available man in the state
will be needed for farm labor be-
cause so many of our young men have
gone to the front and because others
will be taken before another crop is
harvested. This is no time for men
to loaf around poolhalls, smoke shops
and other hangout places. The only
excuse for inactivity should be physi-
cab inability"
Mr.. Hill believes every able bodied
retired farmer should work. There
Is need for them as practical, level
headed farmers to help in producing
a patriotic crop. will you not" he
says, respond to this urgent need?
You may have a competence and not
need the income from such work, but
that is not the question. South Da-
kota's highest duty at this time is to
produce food. We are short of men
to do this and every man is needed,
What the farmer needs above all else
just now is competent help-the men
who have had practical experience
can supply that need"

GERMAN INVASION
HOW WASHINGTON OFFICIALS
VIEW THE RUSSIAN
INVASION.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 25.-The
American general staff is watching
the new sweep into Russia with little
more than academic interest, quite
convinced that Russia is no longer a
military factor to be considered and
that the situation has little bearing,
for the present, at least, upon the
other battle fronts.
Large captures of military stores
bear little relation to the equipment
OF troops on the Italian or west
fronts. officers here say. as the guns
and rifles captured can be of use only
as long as the ammunition supply
captured with them holds out.
Observers here and In Russia, IL is
understood, are satisfied that as the
German drive continues 1t will meet
with more resistance. The greater
the distance the Germans advance the
more effective would be a resistance,
the military experts say. since 1t
would require great numbers of
troops to maintain the German trans
portation lines and give the best OPP
portunity for guerrilla warfare.
Eventually, they think. the vast ex-
tent Of Russian territory and the
great population will form a more
definite movement of resistance.
The government will receive a de-
tailed report from Brig. ten. Judson,
who has just returned from duty at
the American embassy at Petrograd.
The turn OF events in Russia, In
the view here. swings upon the object
OF the German high command in re-
newing operations. The capture of
war material from an unresisting foe
Is considered of no great Importance
and the capture of thousands of pris-
oner5 Is regarded as an added en-
barrassment in many ways. The
taking Of P~etrograd, it is conceded,
Nigh. be desirable for its effect in
Germany and particularly in Austria.

underground RIVER?
SECTION OF ROBERTS COUNTY
is RAPIDLY BECOMING
A LAKE.

Pierre, Feb. 25.-Theories that an
underground river may have broken
loose suddenly to drown the land
scape, are rife In Roberts county, on
the Sisseton reservation. w. H. AL
len, who has leased a goodly portion
of state land nearby and in the mil
itary site, is at Pierre comforting
with the land department over the
phenomenon which is now serious, he
says.
1t appears that two years ago rep
resentatives of the land department
visited the place on the reservation,
and that then there were a few lakes,
which years before had been marked
as dry land-but these lakes were not
extraordinary. Now, two years later,
Mr.. Allen says. that the road over
which they have travelled is under 16
feet of water, and that a lake has
since been formed which would carry
a steamboat drawing five feet of wa
ter for Is miles.
Allen had a pumping house and
windmill near the old fort buildings,
and that is now covered with water.
The fort buildings are on a hill which
as yet is not submerged. The region
Is near the Minnesota line, where wa
ter difficulties in the spring have
been great the past few years.
Inasmuch as some of the old sur
veys show the present small lakes in
that community to be dry land. the
theory OF some of the land depart
ment officials is that perhaps this re-
gion has periods when in some way
the waters sink away and others
when the whole region is wet. The
present situation, however. appears
to be quite astonishing concerning
this very large body of water which
is fast forming over the military re-
serve, with complete loss to any set
tiers which might come in its path.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the disease portion of the ear.
There Is only n a to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining Of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
timely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless b Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
