The new appointees will serve with Louis Rossotf, Grand Forks, appoint- ed by the governor some time ago and whom the old pharmacy board re- fused to seat.

Lahr are | contained in the minutes of the board j which show that the board paid $16,- 512 for the property. Since the board ready had given a check for $18,000 as part payment on the purchase price of the entire section, the balance of | $1,488 was returned to the board. The option taken by the board on the remainder, of the section provides for its purchase at a price of $26,- 488, the consideration for the option being the purchase of the land for which cash was paid. Lahr agreed to deliver the optioned land to the state at any time up to March 10, 1929. An emergency apvropriation by the 1929 legislature will be necessary to permit the state to take advantage of the option, since thé 1929 appro- priations normally will not be avail- able until July 1 of that year. The state also has leased the on- tioned land at an annual cash rental of $1,528.50, estimated to be five ner cent of the purchase consideration named in the option plus the taxes to be paid by Lahr during the two- year period during which the lease will be in effect, The deal by which the board pur- chased the entire section on contrect was challenged by a court action in- stituted by State Senator William Martin of Morton county. Whether the action begun ‘by Martin will be urged in view of the new arrange- ment by the board is not known here. 4h
