HEALTH WOULD BE
AIDED BY THESE

Knowing the season is at hand
when resolutions of all kinds are
being put into effect and perhaps
as quickly broken, the Minnesota
State Medical Association comes
forth with some suggestions which
would make for more longevity
among humans if they were fol-
lowed. None of them, the doctors
point out, would require any great
sacrifice, time or effort ON the
part of anybody. They are:
1. l will get at least eight hours
of sleep out of every "a. or
nearly every "a, and l will get
some exercise out doors every
day.
2. will see to it that my diet
includes an extra glass of milk
every day this year; also vege-
tables, including some green
vegetables and fruits in addi-
ton to a variety of other foods.
8. If I get what l think is a cold,
l will go to bed for a day, at
the very least and l will stay
at least five feet away from 9TH
er people while the cold is acute
to protect them from mouth
spray and avoid injecting others.
4. will be vaccinated, myself,
against small pox, if l have not
already been vaccinated.
5. l will see to it that my teeth
are put in good condition.
6. will report any unusual lump
or sore that appears anywhere
on my body or any unusual dis
charge SO that, in case it should
be cancer in the early stages.
1 will stand the best possible
chance of cure and l will have
a thorough physical examination
to check up on the possibility Of
other diseases such as diabetes
or heart disease or tuberculosis
so that they can be treated in
the early stages.

Credit Union Shows Growth.

The annual meeting of the AskOv
Community Credit Union was held in
the town hall yesterday afternoon with
only a small attendance. Routine re-
ports read and accepted. The Union
now has 43 members; during the year
1894 they negotiated 25 loans. The
board of directors consists of nine
members, six of these hold over for
one or two years. The three whose
terms expired this year were Chr.
Larsen, Christopher Nielsen and Hans
Clausen and Hans Clausen and Chris
topher Nielsen were reelected and
Chr. Sandahl was elected in place of
Chr. Larsen; thus the board for 1885
consists of the three named above and
Adolf Jensen, j. r. Petersen, H. r.
Buck, Chr. SOrensen, Geo. c. Jensen,
and A. Gravesen. The following are
on the credit committee: H. r. Buck,
Hans Clausen and Adolf Jensen; and
the supervisory committee includes
the following: Thorvald Sorensen, AL
fred l. Nielsen, and ]. P. SOrensen.
The directors met after the annual
meeting and organized as follows:
Christopher Nielsen, president; Adolf
Jensen, vice president, and j. r.
Petersen, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. The Or
ganizatiOn is still very young but is
gradually growing; to begin with they
had considerably more deposits than
loans, but lately their applications for
loans have exceeded the deposits. All
the directors and officers are serving
without pay, so whatever profits there
are can be put into reserve fund
and thus build up a financially strong
organization.

The new state income tax Law
raised nearly $4,000 for Pine
county schools last year. Less than
$500 of this was paid by Pine, county
citizens. If this Law were strength
ened in the higher brackets, it would
go a long way toward elimination of
local school taxes in the rural coun-
ties. 1t is based on the ability to pay
and is the most difficult tax to hand
down to the consumer. Some Pine
county rural schools are unable to
operate on the present property tax
system.
