Bringing in the Belgians. There is sound sense in the con- tention of certain people that the bringing of thousands of Belgians to any one state to be provided with lands while no such provision is made for the poor and unemployed of our own land is unwise. Some object to the bringing of Belgians here at all, but that is not sound. We can well afford to bring over and locate as many of the Belgian farmers as can come. We have enough land and to spare. It is our business to give the land hungry at home the same advantages that we propose to offer the Belgians, sug- gests the St. Paul Dispatch. That done, there would be a dis- tinct advantage to the home people as well as the foreigners. The Bel- glans are said to be the best farmers in the world. Many of the land hungry in this country know little or nothing of farming. To them the example of Belgian neighbors would be of inestimable value. By all means bring as many Bel- gian farmers as will come to this country. Sell them land upon the best possible terms, but sell to our own people on the same terms. Lo- cate the Bélgians in small colonies and colonize Americans along with them. The Belgians, by their ex- ample, will teach the Americans how to get the most from their land. The Americans will teach the Belgians how” to make the most of their new citizenship. Thus everybody will profit. Not the land speeulators alone, but everybody. For the Farmers. If plans do not go wrong, there will be more farmers at the Minne- sota College of Agriculture from Jan- uary 4 to January 9 than have ever been there before. The reason for this will be a Farm- ers’ and Home-Makers Short Course, unlike anything of the kind offered in Minnesota up to the present day. This course will, in fact, be six couses unified. The farmer or farm- er's wife may take any one of the six or may take parts' of several courses and get a lot of extras thrown in. The courses are: Agricultural Engineering, Dairy and Animal Hus- bandry and Veterinary Science, Farm Crops, Soils and Farm Management, Home Economics, Horticulture, Bo- tany, and Entomology, and Poultry and Bees. The work will be by lec- ture and demonstration. In other words, here is offered a chance for the farmer to make a study of farm structures; or dairying, stock raisingj and 'the cure of animal ills; of crop rotations, soil condi- tions, and farm organization of busi- ness’ principles; of the' problems of the farm® home; including the kit chen; of fruit growing and the avoid- ance of insect pests; of bees and chickens——all'in'a short space of time and under the ditection of most in- teresting speakers.

A ccnstant artillery fire has been kept up ai determined charges by the Germsns repulsed at the very Yrink of the trenches.

Phoenix, Ariz, Nov. 21— Twelve men’s lives hang in the balance while the count contin- ues on the initiative measure at the recent election abolish- ing the death penalty. Twelve of the fourteen counties give a majority of 711 against the abolition of the death penalty. Execution of eleven of the convicted men s set for Dec. 19, Governor Hunt having reprieved them until after the election returns determined the people’s will. One other man is under sentence of death, but the date has not yet been fixed. oo ol ode ol ok oo ofe efe oo ole vl ol ofe ole oo ol o oo ofe oo oh ol o el e bt b b ke b ek ke e bl ol o Woman's Death a Mystery.

There are times when a man’s health is 'staked upon the care he gives to it within a few hours. His system may” be run’ down, blood laden with bilious poison and lungs or skin af- fected. Twenty-four hours after you start to take Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, poisonous matter and blood impurities begin to leave your body through the Liver, Bowels, Kld» neys and Skin. So powerfully penetrating is this purely vegetable remedy that through the circulation of the blood. it reaches every fibre, muscle and joint, dissolves the poisonous secretions and drives them out of the body. It brings new activity to the liver, stomach and bowels in a short time, thus causing sallowness, indigestion and constipation to disappear. It enters the tiny blood vessels of the skin, bringing with it fresh vi- talizer blood, and abiding faith in its wonderful cleansing power has come to thousands, when pimples, boils, carbuncles, rash, eczema, acne and other skin troubles dry up and disappear. Good blood means good health; good health means strong men and women, full of vigor and’ ambition, with minds alert and muscles ever willing. Any medicine dealer will supply you with Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery in either liquid or tablet form. Remember it is purely vegetable, and free from alcohol or narcotics and is not a secret remedy for all .its ingredients are published. on ‘wrapper. A GREAT BOOK-FREE.
