Carson. DEAR SIR AND take the liberty of writing you, thinking you might be interested in knowing how we are getting along. We have all been very well since coming to Dakota. We like this country very much, I think so far as climate and healthfulness Indiana 25 concerned this beats cent. We have a pure balmy atmosphere lots of sunshine, pure cool water, no fevers, ouly: one case of genuine consumption.

The prairies are beautifully green, crops look tine, but rain would be very acceptable at this writing. I have put au 75 acres of wheat and 30 of barer, 25 of oats, 5 acres of potatoes and 5 acres of speltz, and will sow 25 or 30 acres of millet, if it rains soon. We raise the broom corn millet for the grain. We will put up all the hay time will allow. We have 30 cows in the dairy and 150 head of cattle in all, 50 head of hogs and 16 horses.

The greatest need of this country is more good people. Help is 80 scarce. Please send us the name of a young married man who will work for $300 per gear, with rooms, bed, milk and truck -patch furnished. I can use a good single man at $240 per year. Girls demand $3 00 to $4.00 per week and are scarce at that.

Land is cheap here, and is just the place for young people to get homes, at $800 to $1200 per quarter. We miss our church privileges very much. Are 5 miles from Havana. We started a good Sunday School in our school house one mile north of us. We have a splendid neighborhood, representing every state and nation, mostly from New York, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, We will welcome all who will come to our deligntful country and climate with everything that go to make life pleasant and profitable.

Kindest regards to you both and all our friends. J. D. CARSON. Letter From The Far West, How's This? We offer one hundred dollars reward for any case of catarrh that can not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

After the death of her aged father. two years ago, she and her widowed mother, left the old home farm, and removed to Richmond, Indiana, to reside.

Schiltz. A Vote on the Prayer Meeting. The pastor of the Christian Church, one day last week, sent the following questions through the mail to all the members of the church, with the request that they put answers to them in the contribution basket on Runday. 1. Do you think a prayer meeting is of any value to a church? 2.

Are you a regular attendant at our prayer meeting; and if not, why not? 8. Can you suggest any improvement in the manner of conducting our prayer meeting? The object was to find out, if possible, what the church really thinks about this service. A number of replies came in on Sunday and still more will probably come next Sunday. It will be of interest if the real mind of the church on this subject can be got at. There will be preaching service next Sunday both morning and evening, and even those who are not members of this church or of any church are invited to send In replies to these questions.

Do not let the price scare you. We know you can buy it. It will take a lifetime for to pay for a farm at the rate you are going. Why pay money rent, why divide with your landlord, why not pay on interest and principal and be the owner and boss yourself? $1000.00 down bays this $4,500.00 farm.
