Minneapolis, Aug. 15.—Two famous North Dakota bonanza farms, the Ad ams and Keystone, that comprise more than 15,000 acres, and that have stood intact through the changing trend of Agriculture in that state from "one crop" farming to diversification, are to be broken up as the result of a deal closed today that involves more than 11,000,000. J. L. Mathews, Lidger wood, N. D., banker, who is interest ed in a bank at Kermit, and who re cently sold his interest in the Lidger wood National bank to J. W. Stiteler, And who will reside after Sept. 1 at 2019 Second avenue south, Minneapo lis, and A. L. Benzer of Lidgerwood and Matador, N. D.,'are associated in the deal. The Adams farm, in Richland county •comprises fifteen sections, eleven sec tions being in one block. The farm is near Matador, on the Soo line, and close to Bayne, on the Northern Pa cific. The Keystone farm, owned by Jones Son of Niagara Falls, who are inter ested in the gorge railway and other enterprises of that vicinity, is direct ly on Soo line trackage, the townsite ami station of Matador being on the {arm. It consists of sections alter nately distributed according to origi nal land grants, four in the first tier, three? below and two in the third tier. The Adams farm contains in all a little more than 9,600 acres and the Keystone farm 5,760 acres in all. The price paid is said to have rang ed from $60 to $80 an acre. J. L. Mathews conferred with T.

Why Have "Kerns?" This ii the reason why women have nerves." When thoughts bt|i# t© §nm cloudy and uncertain, impulses lag and the warnings o! pain, and distress an sent like flying messages throughout limbs and frame, straightway, nine times to ten, a woman will lay the oause of the trouble to some defeet at the point where am first felt it. Is it a headache, a backache, a sensation of irritability or twitching and uncontrollable nervousness, something must be wrong with the head or back, a woman naturally says, but all the time the real trouble very often centers in the womanly organs. In nine cases out of ten the seat of the difficulty is here, and a woman should take rational treatment for its cure. The local disorder and inflam mation of the delicate special organs of the sex should be treated steadily and systematically. Dr. Pierce, during a long period of practice, found that a prescription made from medicinal extracts of native roots,without the use of alcohol, relieved over 90 per cent, of such cases. After using this remedy for many years in his private prac* tioe he put it up in form of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, that would make it easily procurable, and it can be had at any store where medicines are handled. MRS. LILA B. HAWKINS, of Zeus, Va., writes: I had been failing In health for two years—most of tho time was not able to attend to my household duties. Female weakness was my trouble and I was getting very bad but, thanks to.Doctor Pierce's medicines, I am well ami strong again. I took only three bottles of' Favor ite Prescription,' and used tho Lotion Tablets.' I have nothing but praise for Doctor Pierce's wonderful medicines." TAKE DR.

Decaying Fish Are Menace to Health Complaint has been heard again to day of the condition of the river below the dam where it is claimed that hun dreds of dead fish in an avanced state of purification is a menace to health, and the odors revolting to anyone who happens in the neighborhood. No catse is known for the fish hav ing died in such large numbers but is a matter that will in all probability re quire attending to in the interest of public health. The people living in the vicinity will bring the matter to the attention of the board of health today, and no doubt immediate action will be taken. •i'he negro population of the state is only 1 per cent of the total population of the state which has more than 500,000 inhabitants. The negro pop ulation of the state penitentiary is 10 per cent of the total number of convicts in the state prison. This contrast becomes even more glaring when it is discovered that about 8 per cent of the number of ne gro convicts are sent up from Cass county and the city of Fargo. This Is indeed strange when it is remembered that both the city of Grand Forks and Grand Forks county face almost the same conditions as are confronted by Cass county and the state metropolis. A large number of negroes congre gate in this city in the colored quar ter down on lower Front street near the south bridge which has been the scene of many riots, murders, sui cides and shooting scrapes of various kinds and descriptions in recent years. Apparently there is no scarcity of farm help in the communities tribu tary to Cando and the papers are mak ing the comment that the men are of the class of willing workers.

Woman Seriously Disfignred by Boggy HUSBAND OF CASS COUNTY WO MAN KILLED AND HER FACE BADLY SCARRED. Fargo, N. D., Aug. 15.—One of the most appalling accidents noted in this state in some time befell Mrs. R. A. Kruger, a well known and popular res ident of Cass county living in the vi cinity of Embden, when day before yesterday she was thrown from her buggy, the wheels of which ran over her face and throat. Mrs. Kruger had been to Embden purchasing some household supplies. About half way home on the return trip, the horse became obstreperous from a gigantic bee or fly. The animal gave several lurches in the air, getting beyond the control of Mrs. Kruger. Suddenly the vehicle overturned and the driver thrqwn out. The horse back ed up once over the body of Mrs. Kruger, the wheels running over her face. A lurch forward brought the wheels directly over her throat. The animal ran down the road with the empty buggy, attracting the atten tion of people in the nearby farm house. When Mrs. Kruger was found she was suffering intensely and so badly mangled that it was with diffi culty that she was first recognized. Immediately she was removed to her home, where she is receiving the best of care from friends who have volun teered their services in caring for her Reports today were received 'by Depu ty U. S. Marshal Brown, who said that possibly Mrs. Kruger may be perma nently disfigured though perhaps the injuries may not prove fatal. Just a year ago, Mr. Kruger was killed while out in a field by a frac tious horse kicking him in the head. The horrible accident of his widow seems a strange coincident. It is hoped she will recover. She has the sympathy of her many friends throughout the county where she is well known. Bids Wanted For Lignite Coal.

This is the time of the year when potato wilt diseases begin to make their appearance. The symptoms of this wilting may vary to a consider able extent. Frequently the branches and leaves grow upward forming a more or less compact top, the leaves curling and folding along the midrib. The plants become a pale yellowish green while the stem may turn black or brownish at the soil surface, this discoloration sometimes extending as far up as the lower branches. These discolored areas may shrivel up and become dry while often they become soft and decay causing the plants to fall over. Young plants may be killed prema turely, only small tubers being de veloped. In other cases the vines are large, the tops presenting a compact rosette appearance, hut only small potatoes are produced. Often the formation of small green aerial pota toes in the lower leaf axils or near the surface of the ground, above the discolored portion of the stem, takeB place. The roots are frequently very brit tle, breaking off very easily and ap pearing somewhat rotted. They may be grayish or brownish in color and are often partly covered with a pink mold. The stem branches leading to the tubers appear similar to the roots. Plants showing any of the above symptoms may be affected with one of a number of diseases. Sometimes it is difficult to determine in the field which disease it is. The treatments needed may be different. Anyone finding a diseased specimen should send it to the North Dakota Agricul tural Experiment station at Fargo.
