The Stewart Land company which
has conducted homeseekers excursions
from Minneapolis to Texas, for long
time and has done considerable bust
ness in Rio Grande Valley, Texas, ir-
rigated lands among people all over
minnesota and North Dakota, has been
indicted by a federal grand jury at
Kansas City on sixteen counts, charg-
ing that the company misrepresented
the land to clients. The biggest OBJ
lection no doubt was the price of 400
to 700 dollars per acre for land which,
however productive, nevertheless re-
4uires big outlay Of money and Ia
Dor to fully develop and make a pay
ing proposition. The safest invest
ment for a man Of limited means is
yet the rich lands of the Red River
Valley in Minnesota at present prices.

No business man in any town should
allow any newspaper published in his
town to go without his name and
business mentioned in it's columns
says an exchange. This applies to all
kinds of business-general stores, dry
goods, furniture Dealers garages, pro
fessional and in fact all classes of
business men. This does not mean
that you should have whole or half
or even a quarter of page ad in
every issue of: the paper but your
name and business should be mention
ed even if you use two line space.
A stranger picking up newspaper
should be able to tell Just what bust
ness is represented in town by look
ing at the paper. This is the best
possible town advertiser. The man
who does not advertise does an in
Justice to him self and his town.: He
is the man who, expects the newspa-
pers to- do most of the free boosting
for the town. The. life Of any town
depends upon the live wide-awake and
liberal advertising business men.-Mor-
ris Tribune.

One million dollars an hour for two
years-that is what the war cost the
United States, says Our Dumb Ami

enormous waste, and that we are bur

for generations. But the people ap-

All life is struggle. Nations as
well as individuals have their set
backs, their disappointments and OBJ
stacles to overcome. Just now the
people of the United States are hav-
ing a hard time. Especially are the
farmers hard, hit when they must sell
wheat, corn, meat, wool and other
farm products below cost of produc-
ton. Money is tight and is accumu-
lating in the big banking centers of
the east to the detriment of the coun-
try banks and agricultural interests
of the middle, west. Something is
wrong surely and needs adjustment
but how to devise and apply a rem
edy that will work is more easily said
than done. The ills which we suffer
are to a large extent political and the
party in power now is striving cour
ageously to correct the abuses and
mistakes that have been made in the
past. Greater economy, honesty and
efficiency are needed in governmental
affairs. A congress is needed that
shall not be a rubber congress" but
one that will realize and study condi-
lions as they are and not afraid to
apply the remedy regardless of the
howlings of the profteers and the
favored interests. =
= But bad as conditions are and
gloomy the outlook, yet there is a
silver lining to every cloud, and there
is no need to be pessimistic. The sun
is again edging toward the North and
before we know it gentle spring will
be here with it's warmth and it's sun
ahine after the long dark night Of
winter. Soon the Spirit Of Spring
will be stirring in our souls and in
cite us to activity. Let us not be
discouraged. The fertile fields Of the
Red River Valley now slumbering in
the embrace of winter, will soon thaW
out and be ready to produce another
harvest. Nature is never discouraged,
but starts anew every season, deter
mined to do her best. Then why
should not we, poor mortals, learn
from her and take fresh start every
year. Our country is not going to
the dogs. What we as Americans
need is faith to re-dedicate ourselves
to the work Of going forward. This
nation has never gone backward. 1t
Has been going forward for nearly
enc hundred and fifty years. AS In
dividuals it behooves each one to
tackle his or her work whatever It
may be during 1922, with new de-
termination and with the blessing Of
cod success and prosperity will event
sally come. sssss

The Ingersol brothers, manufactur-
ers Of dollar and other cheap watches,
have filed an involuntary petition in
bankruptcy, with liabilities set forth
as 100000 and assets, exclusive of
good will, as $2,000,O00. Evidently
the boys have been too prosperous OF
late, or too proud, to buy the cheap
watches, or else the cheap watches
have been found the most expensive
in the long run. Whatever the cause,
it is hard on the manufacturers.

SMILES SAVED HER
 FROM BEING HANGED
Juorors In Phillips Case Admit Wom- ans Beauty Saved Her
 From Gallows.

Los Angeles, Nov. 17.--Men mem hers of the jury which found Mrs. Clara Phillips guilty of second degree murder for beating Mrs. Alberta T.
 Meadows to death with hammer were quoted today as admitting Mrs. Phillips smiles saved her from the gallows. Had it not been for the de- iendant's smile, she probably would have been convicted for first degree murder without a rccomm endation for clemency, thus making death the only penalty, they said.
 Mrs Phillips seemed to study them. one at time, and to flash frequent smiles at them while she turned an apparently stoical back to the spec tators crowded in the courtroom they were quoted.
 ! And she has the most appealing smile IL ever saw" was the way one juror is quoted.
 The women jurors were not affected by it, it was stated as all three fav- ored a verdict. which would have sent Mrs, Mrs RaaRs ts the ,,s sa',ows They avoid acAsagreement.
