MERICARY I RESS NSSTETRTION GENERAL OFFICES « NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIEY THE SALOON AND THE FARMER. Some time ago it may have been possible for a confidence man to ap- proach a farmer and make him be- lieve black was white. But those days are past; the “hayseed” is no more. The successful agriculturist is now a business-farmer. Glittering generalities no longer appeal to him; he asks for figures and statistics. That is why it is becoming so dis- couraging for the liquor men to try and convince the farmer that saloons are a good thing for him. After they have listened to the liquor man’s talk they go and look up the facts themselves and then vote for prohibition. These men interested in maintain- ing saloons tell the farmer that with- out breweries there would be no mar- ket for his grain. The farmer then turns to the United States census re- port and sees that less than two per cent of the grain in this country is used by the breweries. In other words, if the farmer sells a thousand dollars worth of grain the brewery buys only $20 worth. If, however, the billions of dollars that are spent annually for liquor were spent far other products of the farm such as cotton and woolen goods, leather, flour, ete., the farmer would realize many times the small amount that he now receives for his grain from the breweries. . There is another feature. Statis- ties show that the liquor traffic kiils at least 80,000 people a year and em- inent physicians state that alcohol shortens a man’s life by at least ten years. There are then 800,000 peo- ple now dead who would have been living execept for liquor. It would take a good many farmers to keep 800,000 people fed and clothed, and think of the workmen that would be employed to convert the raw goods of the farm into finished products! No wonder the farmers of the coun- try are voting for prohibition. It will pay you, Mr. Farmer, to leave your work for a short time on August 14 and vote against the liquor evil. You will benefit more by this than you.would by any other kind of work you could do in the same time. PALMER AND ROE. The Bemidji school district will hold an election Saturday at the Cen- tral school. Two directors will be elected to succeed Dr. G. M. Palmer and K. K. Roe, whose terms expire this year. The Bemidji school district will do well to return these men. During the past several years while these men ‘were on the boadr of education much was accomplished for the bettering of the Bemidji schools and these two directors proved to be excellent workers. Bemidji is entering a new period in school affairs. The Nymore schools will probably be merged with the Bemidji schools in a short time and a new school building will have to be constructed in Nymore. New buildings will also have to be con- structed in Bemidji to relieve the present crowded condition. Directors Palmer and Roe have in- vestigated the constructing of new schools and their experience as mem- bers of the board will be very valu- able to Bemidji during the mnext school year. We believe that Bemidji should not change school directors at this time and we hope that the residents of Bemidji will give these two offi- cers the endorsement they deserve. The Titanic carried down 1,503 people and aroused world-wide dis- cussion.. Drink carries off 1,503 peo- ple every eight days in the year and yet some people allow prohibition to be defeated because they won’t take a few minutes off from their work to vote. Don’t be that kind of a citizen but come out and vote August 14 ‘when Beltrami county will vote under the county option law. Boys, attention! It is unlawful to swim near the inlet of the Mississippi Police aré enfotcing the law nnd nrrests will be ‘made. Bemidji’s big chautauqua will open August 7-and will continue for five days. The chautauqua is worthy of every person’s support. ii*ii#ii*#iii#i* “BAY BREEZES” i*#*iii{i*%i#iii Mr. and Mrs. Schultz, daughter, Margaret, and son, Joseph, and Miss Martha Williams, all of Lavinia, autoed to Lake Itasca to camp for a few days.

FRECKLES Don’t Hide Them With a Veil; Re- move Them With the Othine Prescription. This prescription for the removal of freckles was written by a prom- inent physician and is usually so sue- cessful in removing freckles and giv- ing a clear, beautiful complexion that it is sold by any druggist under guarantee to refund the money if it fails. Don’t hide your freckles under a veil; get an ounce of othine and re- move them. Even the first few ap- plications should show a wonderful improvement, some of the lighter freckles vanishing entirely. Be sure to ask the druggist for the double strength othine; it is this that is sold on the money-back guarantee. -Adv. Tlirough.

The National Pickle Packers’ asso- ciation met here today and announced to the world at large and lovesick swains and lassies in particular, that there is a dearth of pickles in the land. As a result, the packers are a trifle soured on the universe. They advocate the conservation of every single wart. Their ery is “Save the Dill; and let the vinegar drip where it may.” Beauty, of course, is an asset, But the girls who have greenbacks don’t have to worry over not having pink faces. f IF YOU COULD CHOOSE yowd throw away crutches and take a tennis racquet.
