The proposal to give public lands to returned soldiers needs a certain amount of watching. It is an excellent one, if it does not operate to the soldier’s disadvantage. It has been charged that the present scheme is to select land lying the desert districts or in swamps, and to impose upon the soldier the work of reclamation. If this is true, it is an un- conscionable imposition. The purpose of such a scheme should be to reward the soldier—not to enable the nation or rather, that part of it that did not go to war, to profit at their expense. There are millions of acres of public lands ready for cultivation at once. Give that to the discharged veterans; the swamps can be drained and the deserts irrigated at the public cost—not at the expense of the soldiers. . The loan offered to the soldiers to furnish them with the necessary funds would not discharge the nation’s debt, as the advances must be repaid at four per cent. If we are calling the grants a free gift, make them so in fact as well as in name. . 0 DUTY WOULD BENEFIT FARMERS The fact that there is a proposed bill for placing a duty of 3 cents upon all imported potato flour and starch pending in the national house of congress should prove of interest and would be of much benefit to the potato growers of Beltrami county. With the starting of the newly remodelled potato flour plant of Bemidji next September it would mean a larger field for the market of the potato flour, owing to the restrictions to greatly lessen the importations, specially from Germany. Prior to the war, the United States imported millions of pounds of potato flour, but since the war was on the supply was greatly curtailed, Germany using all she possibly could manufacture. Now that peace is come she will again essay to repeat her ex- portation of potato flour to the United States, but the mills can ably take care of the needs. By the imposition of the duty there would be a good de- mand for potatoes by the flour plant, thus being a boon to the growers of this vicinity. : : f| S— BAND DIRECTOR MAKES MODEST REQUEST When Director Riggs of the Bemidji military band -made the request of the Pioneer to ask parents of noisy children to warn them not to disturb the band members while they are playing a program at the weekly concert given for the enjoy- ment of all, he was sincere. He is partial to youngsters but the awakens and he is reformed. To aid her religious designs he cheerfully surrenders himself to the authorities. The various scenes of the picture are thrilling to a degree, the action rapid and the heart interest is well sustained.

Patrons of the concerts will also appreciate quietness during the rendition of numbers. 0 Bemidji Elks will be interested to learn that at their na- tional convention at Atlantic City, N.

At last I lost my appetite entirely and would get so weak and dizzy at times I would almost fall. Finally I simply had to give up work altogether and was down in bed for four months, unable to do a thing. “I felt better almost as soon as I started on Tamlac. Pretty soon I was able to go baek to work and I wasn't nervous and irritable like I had been. Everybody wanted to know what caused the change and I told them Tanlac, and now, a’ great many of the employees of the Brown Palace Hotel are taking it too. .I am eating just anything I want and have been ever since the first few days I took Tanlac and my appetite is fine. I now weigh one hundred and forty-five pounds, making an actual gain of twenty-five pounds, and have never felt better in my life. I go to sleep at night as soon as 1 hit the pillow and 1 am feeling strong and full of energy and can do my work with more ease than in a long time. That's what Tanlac has done 1or me and if there’s another medicine in the world that will do so much for suffering people, 1 have never heard of it. My wife and children are now taking Tanlac, too, and we are all feeling fine.” Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher by Mrs. R.
