GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGC “-ANCHFS IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITiES Our Slogan: “Bemidji 25,000 Population in 1925” The Government Interested. For some time thcre has been a loud cry for the repeal of the law which provides for the fee system in connection with the State Department of Weights and Measures, and it now seems that the legislature is to take the desired action in the matter. The government is much interested in two bills, one introduced by Sena- tor Rockne of Zumbrota which would combine the Weights and Measures department with the Dairy and Food commission, and another by Repre- sentative Frank Nimocks and Senator G. M. Peterson, which would-abolish the fee system. It is believed gener- ally that the first bill would not work out successfully, while the second bill is favored, Fay Holbrook, special investigator of the Federal Bureau of Standards, is now in St. Paul to look into the various bills pending. Senator Rockne’s bill also pro- vides for inspection of scales once every two years. The government holds that this is not often enough. C. C. Neale, commissioner of weights and measures, in a statement outlined seven reasons why the two depart- ments should not be combined. He says that his department is con- nected with the Railroad and Ware- house commission, inasmuch as all laws pertaining to weighing and measuring devices apply more or less to this board. The second reason is that the com- bination would split the service, which would result in an overlapping of duties as part of the work would remain under the Railroad and Ware- house commission. The third reason is that the weights and measures in- spectors would have to report to both commissions. Next he says that all of the present employes are _well trained. The fifth reason is that the dairy and food officials cannot inspeet the scales in an able manner as most of them are experts in some other line such as butter, cheese or cannery products. He says that in states where the weights and measures de- partment has been made secondary to another department, the work has been secondary also. Now, he says, the department is under the direct supervision of the government which opposes the combine. Lewis A. Fischer, chief of the di- vision of Weights and Measures of the Bureau of Standards, in a letter to Mr. Neale said that he believed the abolishment of the fee system would be one of the best moves this state could make, He pointed out more than a dozen reasons why the government wishes the state departments to be maintained by appropriations rather than fees.

AR HH KKK KKK KKK * POPULATION OF EUROPE x SERIOUS PROBLEM * HEHHKHKHRH KKK KK KH By HENRY WOOD. Paris, March 17.—The Academy of Moral and Political Sciences has just asked the French government to take up at once its most serious problem that will result from the war—that of the population of Europe. The academy has pointed out that when the war ends a minimum of 2,- 000,000 at the very least will have been killed. The crisis which Bur- ope will then face for its repopula- tion will be without parallel in the world’s history. The academy has already pledged to the government its most profound and exhaustive study of the situa- * the members eventually to take up the problem in its ‘application to all forts as it is presented in France. of the situation is already recognized. OUR CITIZEN’S DEMAND Resident Furnished It. There are few items which appear in this paper more important to Be- midji people than the statement pub- lished below. In the first place, it is from a citizen of Bemidji and can be thoroughly relied upon. In the second place, it indisputably proves that Doan’s Kidney Pills do their work thoroughly and not temporar- ily. Read this carefully: Oliver Gordhamer, carpenter, 1200 Dewey Ave., Bemidji, says: “I was stiff and lame in the morning and it hurt me to bring any strain on my back. I believe it was heavy Jlifting and hard work that brought on the trouble. I was handicapped in doing my work, especially stooping or lift- ing. Three or four boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills strengthened my back and made me well. I have had no trouble since.” Price 50c, at all dealers. . Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Gordhamer had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.

While it is the intention of countries stricken by the war, they for the moment will confine their ef- | ture of Sage, Tea and Sulphur to Keep That France will be the country that will face the most serious phase | p,ir which is so attractive, use only this France’s birth rate ‘has decreased deaths = Now with hundreds of th sands of her men most capable of Te- producing - their kind being killed, the situation: is, recognized to have been aggravated to-a degrees where only the most radical, unanimous and exhaustive measures on the part; not only of the Frénch government, but of the entire French people are going to be necessary in order to insure the continuity of the French race. | As yet the academy has suggested; no measure to the government except! the immediate revision of all legisla- tion on the subject. The academy, however, from the superficial glance which it has already given to the subject declares that ‘the minimum motto which France can adopt and hope to prevent the gradual oblitera- tion from the face of the earth of the French people is ~ “Three children for every family.” = The condition en- tailed by the war renders this an im- perative necessity. The academy also has asked the government to effect’ a complete change in the policy of its laws on this subject. Instead. of = enacting measures with the end in view of forcing families to have children, it is urged that the laws tend rather to make it possible for parents to have]| children by reducing for them the economic burden of bringing them up. 5 As the laws now stand, it is as- serted that the larger a man’s family is the more taxes, duties and other contributions he is obliged to pay to the state. The academy asks the re: versal of this. It asks also the immediate revival of an old law which was supressed in 1885. It provided that every family with seven children had the right to have at least one of these brought up at the expense of the state. The academy insists that even a larger ap- plication of this law would be justi- fiable under the present conditions. FEW FOLKS HAVE GRAY -HAIR NOW ‘Well-known loca‘l druggist says every- body is using old-time recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
