RECIPE FOR RHEUMATISM.
Directions to Prepar Simple,
Yet Remarkabl Home
Mixture.
There is so much Rheumatism here
in our neighborhood now that the fol
lowing advice by an eminent author
ity, who writes for readers of a large
Kastern daily paper, will be highly
appreciated by those who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces of Compound Syrup Sarsapa
rilla. Shake these well in a bottle
and take in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime also drink
plenty of good water.
It is claimed that there are few vic
tims of this dread and torturous dis
ease who will fail to find ready relief
in this simple home-made mixture,
and in most cases a permanent cure is
the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the eliminative
tissues of the kidneys, so that they
oan filter and strain from the blood
and sjstem the poisons, acids and
waste matter, which cause not only
Rheumatism, but numerous other
diseases. E\ery man or woman here
who feels that their kidneys are not
healthy and active, or who suffers
tiom any urinary trouble whatever,
should not hesitate to make up this
mixture, as it is certain to do much
good, and mav save jou from much
misery and suffering after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.

Contractors to United States Government
Practically all the property own
ers of land fronting on Green Lake
are preparing to fight the raising
of the minimum water level of the
lake two feet above the present
level. Proceedings will be institut
ed to enjoin the commissioners
from building a dam at the outlet
of the height proposed. The people
backing this movement claim that
they are just as much, if not more,
interested in keeping the lake at its
best for a summer resort, and are
not oppose to a dam that will pre
vent any lowering of the normal
height of the water level of the
lake by reason of the Crow river
ditch, but they will not counten
ance raising the dam so as to raise
the minimum water level two feet
over the present stage. The engi
neer employed by the county claims
that the water is now 2.55 feet be
low the general normal water level,
so there is the point of difference.
As a matter of information to the
public we give below the letters
from W. R. Hoag, the engineer
employed by the county commis
sioners, in which he gives the re
sults of his observations, and also
the protest of the land owners at
Green Lake.
Minneapolis, Minn., April 11, 1908.
Mr. Thomas Olson, Chairman Coun
ty Commissioners.
Dear Sir:—If convenient to ob
tain, will you please send me the
township sets of your county map
covering the area of water shed
thru Nest Lake into Green Lake.
In designing the controlling work
at the outlet I need the average dis
charge. My one measurement of
it shows 45 cu. ft. per second and I
am assuming (in the absence of
any better knowledge) that this is
20 cu. ft. more than the average.
With the aid of these maps I ask I
may be able to get a better or more
reliable value for your run-off. I
am writing to Mr. Larson at Green
Lake for information relative to the
use of water at the mill, which
will also be helpful.
My observation for average lake
level shows it to be 2.55 feet above
its stage on the 8th inst. and I pro
pose to design a weir or dam and
set it at such a height that it will
discharge the average run-off when
the water in the lake is at this
stage of 2.55 feet above what it
was at the time of our recent visit.
HOW HIGH IS THE NORMAL STAGE
OE WATER IN GREEN LAKE?
Green Lake Land Owners Refuse to Accept Water Level As Pro
posed By the County Board Committee. Trouble Caused
by Reckless Action of Ditch Contractors.
This weir will discharge 135 cu
bic feet per second (over five times
the normal) should the lake ever
rise to the flood stage shown by the
high water marks observed on the
two lakes and pointed out by Mr.
Larson on his lagoon inlet. And
water will cease to flow out of the
lake if it is allowed 0.35 of a foot
below the normal stage.
My preliminary estimate runs
as follows: earthwork bank 14 top
width with slopes 3 to 1 on the lake
side and 2 to 1 on the opposite side,
with an increase of top width of
each 100 station next to the bridge
to 40 feet—2600 cu. yds. at 10
cents, $260.00 42 cu. yds. concrete
at $7.00, $294.00 incidentals, $100.
00 total. $654.00.
This makes an earth bank 2.5
feet higher than the average stage
of water in the lake and 1.8 above
a possible flood stage. The bank
is 2150 feet long.
I give you the result of this pre
liminary estimate for you to in
dicate if it lines up in a general way
with what your commission believes
to be acceptable to the county.
Of course, a simple plank dam
against the up-stream ends of the
bridge abutments set to raise the
water about two feet above its pres
ent level would effect considerable
betterment over present conditions
and greatly reduce this item of
concrete, but it might lead to a
higher flood stage than the semi
circular concrete weir I propose
and lead to a lower dry season
stage but, worst of all, it would
be temporary and would require
more or less supervision to guard
against a harmful overflow to land
below should it be destroyed by ice
action or by hostile interests. The
concrete weir would, of course, be
as permanent as the bridge abut
ments of which it would become a
part.
Desiring to hear from you as to
the general plan of the design as
outlined above, I close, remaining.
Yours very truly,
W. R. Hoag, C. E.

Mr. Thomas Olson, Chairman,
Willmar, Minn.
Dear Sir:—I send you by same
post a profile of the earth embank
ments at the outlet of Green Lake,
also pencil copy of the specifica
tions for same work. You will
please submit them to Co. Atty. Ot
terness for his correction and ap
proval before having typewriter
copies made for your use and for
the contractor. Please return to
me the original and one carbon
copy.
The specifications would seem
very lengthy for such a short job,
bui large differences and expensive
suits frequently develop from very
innocent beginnings. Economy is
most always on the SAFE side. I
have been unable to give my full
time to this work but have the
plans for the spill-way about done
and will send it to you together
with the specifications this week.
I have hurried the earthwork
part of the job to you so you could
get a contractor at the work as ear
ly as possible.
While all the evidence which I
have been able to gather around
the lake relative to its average
stage points unmistakably to a level
about 2J feet above its present
stage, at your suggestion, in view
of the line of sloughs along bank of
Crescent Beach, which would
be as easily drained with but a two
foot raising of the lake, also a con
siderable saving in the expense of
making the earth bank on the old
shore line, I have revised the old
design providing for an increase in
the lake level of two feet above
what it was on the 22nd inst. This
means that this increased level, af
ter the construction of the controll
ing works, become the usual level
of the lake above which it may rise
from 3 to 9 inches for a short time

In adopting this 2 ft. level, in
stead of the 2.55 as determined by
me by shore-line marks and testi
mony of old lake dwellers, I am
leaving out of account altogether
the question of navigation on the
lake, which has been reported to
me to be obstructed by certain
sand bars at the lower stages of the
water. Should you find this con
sideration sufficiently important to
justify at any time before I stake
out the work, the earth bank can
easily be made at the higher level
upon the additional expense inci
dent to about 900 cubic yards, or
about $100.00.
In the design of spill-way I am
providing for raising of crest this
0.55 with flash boards at small cost
at any time your board may desire
to do so. In my computation for
the necessary height of crest of the
spill-way to secure an average stage
of lake I have made no account of
loss of water by seeping thru the
bank. On account of the very
sandy nature of this bank, when
there comes to be a difference of
the level of 3 to 4 feet on the two
sides, this may become a consider
able item and may even lead to use
of flash boards to keep the lake to
this adopted lower level.
Please give me as much notice as
possible as to when it may be nec
essary to stake out the work.
Yours very truly,
W. R. Hoag, C. E.

the action of the County Commis

of a dam at the outletjof said lake to
raise it two (2) feet.
We know that the present stage
of water is a good average for the
past twenty (20) years and to raise
it two (2) feet will put it to the
highest water mark during the ex

The matter of putting in a dam
at Green lake outlet has been agi
tated for nearly a year. The con
tractor who dug the Crow River
ditch, which was supposed to start
40 rods below the outlet of Green
lake, was permitted to build his
dredge and barges in Green lake
and tear out the bridge and pass
thru in order to get at the starting
point of the ditch. He found the
river to be very much winding and
so in order to get to the starting
place of the ditch he dug the
channel straight from the outlet to
the beginning of the ditch. This
was an unwarranted proceeding for
which someone should be held ac
countable and which has led to all
the subsequent trouble and disputes.
The amount paid the ditch contrac
tor by the county was a good, round
price, in view of what work of like
nature is being done for at the
present time, and certainly includ
ed the cost of hauling coal by team
and building the dredge at the
starting point of the ditch. A
strong current of water three feet
deep going out at the outlet over a
bank of loose sand and the continual
passing of coal barges during the
summer, must necessarily have deep
ened the outlet. How much, or to
what extent, it may be difficult to
determine. Had the outlet of
Green lake never been disturbed by
the ditch contractors the present
controversy could never have been
precipitated. The Tribune expects

YOU
WON'T MIND
Taking
Cod
Liver
Oil
THIS
WAY
C. 0. D. TABLETS present cod liver
oil to you on the form of a dry, easily
swallowed tablet which leaves no un
pleasant or sickening taste in your
month. ALL the good qualities of the
best Norwegian Cod Liver Oil are con
tained in these tablets and ALL the
objectionable qualities of the oil are
absent. These tablets excel the plain
oil in many ways, a few of the most
important of which we list below.
C. 0. D. TABLETS are easy to take
inasmuch as they have no repulsive
taste or odor. The plain oil is very
hard to take because of its disagree
able odor and taste.
C. 0. D. TABLETS never cause that
rising in the throat of a sickening
"fishy" taste or gas such as very of
ten follows the taking of the plain
cod liver oil.
C. 0. D. TABLETS never upset the
stomach or disturb digestion. The
continued use of plain cod liver oil is
certain to nauseate the stomach and
seriously retard the processes of diges
tion.
C. 0. 0. TABLETS not only posses
all the valuable principles of cod liver
oil but they also contain the Hypo
phosphites of Lime and Soda and a
sufficient quantity of that gentle laxa
tive, Licorice, to carry off any excess
of oil should you take more of the
TABLETS than your system can as
similate. 4
C. 0. D. TABLETS are guaranteed to
be better in every way than pure cod
liver oil for the treatment of La Grip
pe, Weak Lungs, Consumption, Pul
monary Complaints, Wasting Dis
eases, Loss of Weight, General Debil
ity, Nervous Weakness, Malnutrition
and all other Ailments caused by an
impoverished condition of the blood.
