WELCOME NEWS
FOR LOCAL PEOPLE
The simple mixture of buckthorn
fork glycerine, etc., known as A&
lir-l-ka, astonishes local people.
Because Adler-i-ka flushes the all*
mejiWy tract COMPLETELY It
relieves ANY CASE constipation,
soaifSStomach or gas. It removes
such surprising foul matter that a
tr\ text doses often relieve or prevent
appendicitis. A short treatment
helps chronic stomach trouble. /The
INSTANT easy action of AdleM-ka
is astonishing.

are not only homeless, but are
starving, he says.

The Red Lake
Drainage Scheme.
(Continued from 1st page.)
like myself, of one or more tax
receipts on that swamp or else
they are owners of drainage ma
chinery securities.
I think that Carl Berg is far
more familiar with this territory
than either Enger or Willard.
Why increase the acreage of farm
land when the last two or three
crops of grain we have grown in
the Red River valley have not
paid for seed, taxes or other ex
and 2 per cent interest on
a valuation of $60 per acre?

This Land is Will Wirti Draining.
To the Editor of The Journal:
I have read L. L. Enger's ar
ticle in regard to the lowering of
Red Lake, i am a timber cruiser
and have been all over that coun
try. I must say that ^Ir. Enger
knows more about that north
country than anyone I have seen
giving their written opinion of it
Not one person in five hundred in
southern Minnesota or in the twin
cities has the slightest idea of
what that north couDtry really is
The height of land lies about 30
miles by ditch road south of Beau
dette, Minn. When one gets to
the height of land be is on a
prairie with no rise of any kind in
sight. But if he will look care
fully, be will find where the water
runs south. A few feet away it
flows north. The northern drain
is the best, and will be for years
to come, unless the job of draining
ind lowering is done, and a good
job done, and even then the water
will hardly ever make as- quick a
getaway as it does to the north,
where it has the big Rainy river,
about the size of the Mississippi,
to drain into, and from there tor
the Lafce of the Wood* *4
into Hudson's bey.
Beltrami county, where most of
this draining is to be done, has
the habit of carrying off the prize
at the State Fair every year, so
may figure it out for yourselves
that the country up there is well
worth draining. "Dr. Squirt."

Wide Bobsled Law
Held Constitutional.
The wide bobsled law prohibit
ing the ?ale of new sleighs to
Minnesota residents for use on
highWays unless the runners are
4 feeft 6 inches wide and forbid
ding-their use if purchased after
January 1, 1921, is held constitu
tional in an opinion given by
Attorney General C. L. Hilton.
"Reports are coming in from
various counties throughout the
state:," Mr. Hilton said, "which
indicate that county attorneys
generally are preparing to enforce
this)law by appropriate criminal
prosecution. It therefore be
hooves every dealer in new sleighs
aridtevery owner or user thereof
-to, see that runners are at least 4
feef 6 inches wide."
Mr. Hilton holds that the act
doe's not apply to sleighs which
were in use prior to January 1,
1921, or to sleds not intended for
use on highways, such as coasting
and bob-sleighs used for pleasure
purposes.

That land is the' richest in the
state. A good energetic worker
can clear 10 or 20 acres up there
and put it under cultivation while
he is working on one acre in most
any other timbered or partially
timbered part of the state. I
have seen homesteaders^ up there
go out on the openings on their
160 acre tracts and cut clover that
is growing wild and thresh nine
bushels'of cloverseed per acre out
of it, in that way making as much
in a few days in the fall as their
brothers in. the southern part of
the state make in a year of bard,
heavy dairy work. And the best
fishmg and hunting in the state is
thrown in for good measure. The
farmers, too, get more real com
fort and sleep better than the cliff
dwellers in the cities can ever
hope to under their rented roofs.
The work of draining that land
ought to go through by all means.
There may be homes for thousands
up there. If some of the renters
in southern Minnesota wpu}4 fo|
low one of us cruisers on a trip
trip through that country once, he
might get a blistered heel or two,
but we will gamble-that be would
find a good home for himself be
fore he got back.
