A new lodge of this old reliable order "vCM established at tbe village of Hoffland Thursday evening, January 15th, 1903, by Chief Deputy F. L. Bohn, of Fargo, There were thirty names on the petition for a charter, of whom twenty-four were present and initiated. Among tbe mem* bers of the order present, who assisted in the work were: ijiftfict Deputy H. W. Johnston, who secured tbe charter list, £. W. Harris, Ole Muus, A. Amund* son, Dr. B. H. Hard man, Jens P. Soie rud and O. Halvorson of White Earth, N. W, Simon and D. Houde of BenspqJ lodge, Benson, Minn., Malcolm McKjjajr and Ed. Link of Williston. At midnight a recess was taken to en able all to enjoy a banquet that bad been carefully prepared and to which ample justice was done. A quiet smoke was then indulged in, after which the work was taken up and lasted until 5 o'clock, Friday morning. The following offers were elected aud installedPast Mas* ter Workmati, Tbos.

A glance at the above list of officers will convey an idea as to tbe material of which this lodge is composed, tbe very best in that locality.. But that is nothing new, for tbe motto of the A. O. U. W. is quality and not quantity, but in this case they have secured both., This order is the oldest fraternal beneficiary society in this country, being thirty-five years in existence and has to day a member* ship of over 450,000. If there is any thing in the theory that "Experience is a good Teacher", tbe plan upon which this order is working should be perfect. They have never been known to repu diate a just claim and we congratulate the people of Hofllund upon their good judgment and the order is to be congra tulated upon tbe acquisition of so many good members.

Carey of Hoffiund, Williams county, was a Minot visitor Friday. Mr. Carey lived here many years ago. He weut to Hofflund and took up a de sert claim and where irrigated tbe glass was from two to three feet high last summer and in one little spot on his farm which was unusually high, he could not.get water to it. The grass there was but a few inches high, de monstrating the value of irrigation. DR. W. H. HUFNAIL, has located at-Williston and is prepared to attend all calls of the sick.

On the eveuing of January 19th, Ray. Lodge No. 77 of tbe Ancient Order of United Workmen was instituted by Chief Qpputy Bohn with twenty names on the petition for a charter, of whom sixteen :ii$re present and duly initiated, iu tbe midst.ofa howling bliz^rd, hence we predict tbQ lodge will be a howling sue qess. E. O. Westcotl aud Ben. Brads kerud of Hofflund lodge Joe McCafiery of Johnstown, C. M. Hanson of Hamil ton lodge, and W. H. Johnston, district deputy, who secured tbe charter list, were present and assisted iu U|e- cere* mony of initiation. Previous to tbe in stitution of the lodge, a number of ladies and gentlemen, not members of the or* der, gathered in the hall and listened to an interesting "chalk talk" given by Mr. F. L. Bohn, Chief Deputy of tbe or der from Fargo, which lasted about an hour, in which time he showed them in a practical way, the fundamental princi ple of "Fraternal Insurance", tbe vast difference in the plans of the various or ders and tbe absolute need of every person who is qligible taking member ship. The work of initiation was then proceeded with, which was followed by tbe election and installation of the fol lowing officers:—Past Master Workjnan, and Master Workman, were left vacant Foreman, H. V. Hughes Overseer, H. Berg Recorder, N. OlBon Financier, Htvrry Nason Receiver, P. Mithun Guide, D. McLeod Ipside Watchman* F. Johnson Outside Watchman, Elmer Smith Trustees, 1 year, Emil Polege 2 years, J. Wise 3 years, Gust. Tanberg. The electio.n of Past Master Workman and Master Workman waa deferred.ow, ing to the unavoidable absence ofthe parties whom they expect to put in those places. The lodge adjourned to meet next Friday, at which time four or five more will be initiated and the above vacancies filled. Shis- lodge has a bright future before it, being composed of young, active material who will not per mit North Dakota blizairds or anything else, to stop their progress. Unconscious From Croup.

Gentlemen of this Board: We have met here to qualify as the Board of Health of Williams county for the ensu ing year,, The honorable coinpussioners have seen fif. to appoint us tQ,ottf various positions to took,after the health of our citizens and the sanitary conditions of our county. The state has so composed the board that it is a democratic organ ization, consisting of the law, the medi cal profession.and the people. It Is our duty to make our rules and regulations so plain that the laity can understand them, and need not err. It shall be our burden to prevent the spread cf conta gion and infection—to Bee that our water, fopd, andall stippo*ed carriers.of. conta* f'here ion and infection,, are qlgan and pure, is a bill on ppre food laws before our present senate and house, and may it not be curtailed and amended so that its virtues are lost. It is our duty to see that our dairymen bring us no milk from cOws affected with tuberculosis or lumpy jaw that our butchers kill us only heal thy meat and serve it to us clean that our bakers use no alum in their bread or yellow ochre in their rolls that our grocers sell us no canned embalmed meats. These commodities of life are essential to our well being, and we should so guard them that they prove not to be carriers of sickness and disease* To do this will requite tbe support of each member of the board, aud the co operation of the citizens of the county. We are taught to-day to believe that contagion and infection are caused by germs, and that plain dirt makes a good field for tbem to breed and propagate. If by keeping our habitations and sur roundings clean, our garbage and refuse carted off, unslaked lime, or its equiva lent, in our outhouses, we can prevent an endemic in our town or county, our task has been small and our benefit great. We have all the natural require ments for a healthy community, if we live up to these rules. It ifi the duty of every parent, if a child is sick with a sore throat and fever, to trail in their physician, and should he pronounce it diphtheria, to notrty the health officer that he ma quarantine and isolate the oliild and family. It is the duty of eveiy parent if a child is sick with high fever and vomiting, and the next day has a iHsh to call their family phvsiriun, and should he diag nose the cane scarlet fever to notify this Board. Small pox as we have it today, is not nearly as virulent or as fatal as it was after the war of the Rebellion, having been modified by vaccination and treat ment, hut nevertheless it is a contagion, ant still is a loaths-'tne diseasi', an«l it i£ the Inw of the United States .and also the State law to qiinratitine.
