This is the amount Prof. Gile will get off the patch at the Bemidji High school farm this year. A record to begin with. A man in Jowa was soundly thresh- ed by his wife last week for not paying newspaper subscription af- ter she had given him the cash to do it. May her crown be trimmed to order and her harp have an extra etring.—Ex. “If I had the good nature, enthu- slasm and hearty laugh possessed by that man Brooks of the Northern National Bank, I'd be a millionare inside of a year,” sal_d a farmer at the meeting Saturday. There must be a leakage somewhere, Mr. Brooks. “You can count on me for much and I'll meet you more than half way,” said Fred Sherman at theFar- mer’s meeting last Saturday. We'll be there waiting when you hit the half way mark Mr. Sherman, you can bet your life on that. It's the “Bemidji Way,” you know. z Bemidji is becoming convinced that the school board made no mis- take when it selected Bueford M. Gile as its agriculturist. He shows the kind of stuff he’s made of and it's the kind that makes a hit in this “neck of the woods”. What we need is more Giles, Prof. W. P. Dyer has yet to miss his first opportunity in “‘showing off’’ our public schools and the high school agricultural farm. That's the spirit, would that we had more of it. We predict that there’ll be no such first opportunity as far as the prof- fessor is concerned. Chairman F, S. Lycan named a committe of men who have already done things and are capable of do- ing more. He appointed H. E. Rey- nolds, and A. P. Ritchie of Bemidji and J. E. Dade of Blackduck to sub- mit a plan for organizing an agricul- tural Loan Association during the next thirty days. That we'll hear from this committee within the time limit is a foregone conclusion. —_—— The Sentinel Succumbs The Pine River Sentinel is no more, it having been absorbed by the Blaze of that village last Fri- day. Both papers now come under the management of E. B. Dahl who will consolidate the Sentinel with the Blaze. Walker Pilot Fresh Trousers. A young man concluded that the home merchant did not advertise a very good line of clothing so he sent up to a majlorder house to get some thing strictly up-to-date. When the suit arrived he found in the pants a ngte that read, “Should this fall into the hands of a good looking - young man who desires to correspond with a lady of sweet disposition kind- ly address etc.” The young man promptly sent a letter to the address| and in a few days received reply as follows: “My wife is in receipt of a letter from you in her name. She says 20 years ago she wrote that note. She’s now my lawful wife and mother of seven children. If you do not quit writing to her I will make a trip to your town and make, ete.” Moral: Trade' with your home mer- chant—Ex. Beltrami Again First It takes W. R. Mackenzie to dis- cover and give the “hunch,” and Bel- trami county to put it Into execu- tion. With eight or ten successful, Farmer’s Agricultural Loan Associa- tions in operation in this county, within the next year or two, will retary of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. that, “This section of the coun- try is destined to become the great- est dairying country of the world.” The future for the Beltrami coun- ty farmer was never brighter. Soon he will be able to take up land, clear be |it and buy cattle without a cent of his own money. Honesty and hard work are all the requirements neces- sary. The fact that Beltrami coun- ty will be the first in the state to provide money for the clearing of land and the purchase of cattle for the new comer will do much to effect the trend of the homeseeker in: this direction. Within thirty days'a plan to organize a Farmer's Agricultural Loan Association will be submitted and ready to launch. What every citizen and farmer does toward mak- ing this organization a success is bound to return a hundred fold into the coffers of the contributors, be- sides helping those who are most needy of help. Men who have money to invest will find it a good invest- ment under a properly organized system. We are rapidly increasing in number . throughout the country, but we can tripple that rate of in- crease by the help of a Farmer’s Agri- cultural Loan Association. OFFICIAL ASKS THREE AUTOS Request Likely to Develop “Tire Trou- ble” in Congre Washington, July 28.—Secretary Wilson of the department of labor, who has informed congress that one touring automobile, an electric run- about and an auto truck are necessary to the good conduct of the new de- partment, apparently has launched his request on a rocky legislative road. Members of the house who were friendly to the cabinet officer’s de- mand admitted that the minority members probably “would have tun” with the item, which likely will be in- cluded in the urgent deficiency bill that the appropriations committee now is preparing. “l am afraid Secretary Wilson’s requisition will develop tire trouble, bad cylinders and bent axles,” sald one of the Democratic leaders, “before it gets past the minority objections.” GRAIN AND PROVISION PRICES South 8t.

INQUIRE OF 8T. PAUL SCORE OF PERSONS Twenty-five Hundred Gallons of Naphtha Explodes. Malden, Mass, July 28.—Twenty- one employes are missing following an explosion of '2,50()' gallons of naphtha in the plant of the New BEngland Dye- ing and Cleaning company here. The explosion could be heard for miles, Blazing oil shot through the air, setting eight other buildings on fire. Four employes, two of them’ women, escaped uninjured by jumping from first story windows. All available fire apparatus was rushed to the scene. The burning oll, which spattered all over the square where the building is located, made the work of the firemen extremely hazardous and several were badly burned. Hundreds of windows were smashed and houses were shaken to their foundations. DECISION CAUSE OF TRAGEDY Murder Follows Ruling of Minnesota Supreme Court, 8t. Paul, July 28—One man was killed, another fatally injured and a ‘woman narrowly escaped déath when revoiver bullets brought a Bulgarian immigrant romance to a dramatic close.

This is dis- couraging, but there is one kidney medicine that has earned a reputa- tion for lasting results and there is plenty of proof of its merit right here in Bemidji. Here is the testimony of one who used Doan’s Kidney Pills years ago, and now makes his testimony even stronger. Mr. Henry Revor, 808 Bemidji Ave. Bemidji, Minn., says: “I suffered from backache for weeks at a-time; It seemed that I could get nothing that would relieve me. Finally, I heard about Doan’s Kidney Pills, After taking two boxes, I felt like a differ- ent person. The public statement I then gave, praising Doan’s’ Kidney Pills, still holds good. The benefit they brought, has been permanent.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
