The INVESTIGATION of the Bank of
North Dakota has brought out that
Valley City bank cashed bunch of
farmers notes during the campaign
last summer, upon receiving assur-
ance that enough Bank of North Da-
kota funds would be kept there to re-
place funds thus loaned. The testi-
mony of one of the league farmers
signing the notes is to the effect that
the money was used by Townley and
his friends for campaign purposes,
and that the farmer himself got none
Of the money.
The farmer was sucker and so
were the people of the state suckers
when they made possible such deals
by voting for the Bank of North Da-
kota, in the first place.

Foreign Advertising Representative
THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

Petition. have been presented to the
legislature from citizens of Steele
county asking that they be separated
from Griggs county SO far as legis-
lative representation is concerned.
Steele county voted out the league
legislative members, but Griggs coun-
ty overcame their lead.
All of which goes to remind US that
Emmons county is in the same fix
At the last general election, there
were four candidates from Emmons
county for the house of representa-
tives. Two of them were league and
two were independents. The vote re-
suited as follows:
Anderson, ind. 90. -. 1899
Baumgartner, ind. 80. ..1577
Harding, league. .....1520
Yeater, league. ....1344
In other words, Baumgartner, run
ming in the independent column, re-
ceived 81 more votes than Harding in
the republican column, and 233 more
votes than Yeater, running in the
same column with him. Anderson,
running in the same column with
Harding, received 179 more votes, and
1855 more votes than Yeater, in the
Independent column.
But, Harding and Yeater, defeated
candidates in Emmons county, are
members of the legislature, and vot-
ing against practically every PROPOSE
-tion favored by the majority of the
voters of Emmons couny. They are
simply there because Kidder county
was able to dictate to Emmons coun-
ty what kind of representation En-
mons itself should have.
Messrs. Harding and Yeater are
Kidder conty's representatives, even
though they live in Emmons. How
ever, in the light of most recent league
developments, it is quite likely that
at the next election, Emmons county
will be able to dictate to Kidder coun-
ty by overcoming the Kidder county
league lead, so that it may not be
long until an entire independent dele
cation from Kidder and Emmons will
represent us in the halls of state.
That would mean the retiring to pri-
vate life also of Sen. C. A. Ward, the
gentleman who broke into print one
time with such very bum advice to his
neighbors relative to the packing
plant.

Yourself Well

sonal reply to Information Edi-
tor, U. S. Public Health Service,
Washington, ID. Q. =.

Bursa.
l have a lump in the palm of my
hand, and some n has told me it is
a bursa. Will you please tell me
what is a bursa?
A bursa is a little sac containing
a drop or two of fluid, and located
in various part of the body, usually
in connection with tendons, or over
some bone lying close to the sur
face. In other words, a bursa is a
normal structure. Their existence
is usually unnoticed by the laity
until, as a result of irritation, they
become inflamed and there is an in
crease in the amount of fluid. In
scrub women. for example. the bursa
situated in front of the knee cap
may become inflamed. giving rise to
the condition known as "housemaid's
knee" Another bursa which often
becomes irritated and inflamed is
located at the tip of the elbow. The
bursa on the back of the wrist often
becomes inflamed. 1 have never seen
an infiamed bursa In the palm of the
hand. and accordingly. repeat the ad-
vice l have given you in a previous
letter to consult a qualified physician
and let him look into the matter.
"Iumbago?"
Please send information concern
ing relieving or curing of stubborn
case of lumbago. Pain is located in
shoulder and in base of neck.
In ordinary lumbago the pain
comes and goes. and Is usually not
a difficult matter to control an inv
dividual attack. The old-fashioned
home remedy known as ironing out
the back" is often of considerable
service. The patient lies in bed, face
down, and his back is ironed through
several thicknesses of flannel cloth,
or through a Sunday newspaper,
with a hot iron. The combination of
heat and rubbing usually affords con-
siderable relief.
From your brief description. how
ever. I question whether the condi-
ton is really lumbago. 1t may be
some more serious trouble in the
spine or in the structures in the
chest or abdomen.
I would, therefore, urge you to dis
cuss the matter with your family
physician. and. perhaps, have him
refer you to some qualified ortho-
pedic specialist for further examina-
ton and advice. A "lumbago" in
which the pain persists is apt to be
something else.
Clothing for Baby.
What articles of clothing should
a baby born in July wear?
A baby born in July in any locality
where the m are warm does
not require the very long clothes for
merly used. In fact, many people do
not favor these at all now. 1 should
advise you to provide the pinning
blanket. however. because of sudden
changes in the weather and cool,
damp spells. The necessary things
for the baby are: 3 soft flannel
bands. 3 night gowns of outing flan-
mel, 3 petticoats of outing flannel, 6
white slips, 3 shirts. size 2. cotton. or
cotton and wool. 3 knit bands with
shoulder straps, 2 dozen diapers,
coat and hood. in one. baby blanket.
