Land Office Ruling
Nokth Platte Neb Juno 16 A
new ruling of the land department has
been made in tho Kinkaid homestead
law that knocks out a good many fel
lows who tried to be smart and get
ahead of every body else soon after tho
law was first enacted The law grant
ing section homesteads passed in con
gress April 28 1901 and took effect six
ty days thereafter Before any entries
could bo made under such act many
persons filed quarter section homesteads
under tho old law and located their
claims in strings of four forty acre tracts
in tho center of the section desired for
tho purpose of keeping others out of
such sectiqD and after entries were
open under tho Kinkaid act they applied
for and were permitted by the local of
ficers to make another entry embracing
the balance of tho section The com
missioner of the genenil land office now
holds that such second entries are void
and these people find themselves with
onlv 160 acres instead of 610

Thats what a prominent
druggist said of Scotts
Emulsion a short time
ago As a rule we dont
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec

that the- are worthy of
occasional note From
infancy to old age Scotts
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im
proper and weak develop
ment restoring lost flesh
and vitality and repairing
waste The action of
Scotts Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself What it does
it does through nourish
ment the kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob
tained in ordinary food

State Fair News
At a meoting of the board of managers
on Juno 10th President Mellor notified
the board that ho had appointed S C
Bassott secretary to fill tho vacancy oc
casioned by tho death of Hon Robert
W Furnas also that W O Caley of
Croighton Knox connty had been ap
pointed a member of the state board to
fill vacancy
Contracts have been signed for exhi
bition races during the fair with the
