Fires.

Mr.. w. Ii. Ingham, the General
Agent of the Hayward Hand
Grenade Fire Extinguisher Co., was
in the city Tuesday in the interest
of his company, and called at The
Democrat office. Mr.. Ingham re-
ports that Notwithstanding the dull
times practical men see the economy
in securing their property against fire
by ordering a few dozen of these
goods.
The Hayward Hand Grenades
have extinguished over 500 fires In
the past three years. saving millions
of dollars worth of property, and
though they are but recently in
troduced in the north west are every
where meeting with general endors-
ment.
The claim made for them is that
in buildings provided with Hay
ward Grenades nine fires out of
every ten can be instantly and COM
pletely extinguished. This state
ment is made after examining the
records and testimonials of those
who have had occasion to test them.
In fact there is no record OF any
fire on which the Hayward Grenade
has been used that was not subdued.
They are warranted to endure any
climate for years, never freeze or
explode and perfectly safe for any
one to use. 1t is the wisest course
to protect your property, your
store, shop, hotel, stable and all
buildings and property at once, and
be prepared to extinguish fires the
instant you discover them.
Satisfy yourself of the merits Of
the Hayward Grenade and then
order at once.
Farmers especially need the same
protection of these Fire Extinguish-
ers. Farm houses and barns need
their protection. They will be a
guard night and day, whether you
are there or not.
Price $40 per dozen. Free on
board cars at Milwaukee.
Address, w. H. INGHAM,
General Agent,

The Wisconsin Tobacco Reporter,
which is authority on tobacco rails
ing, says that every planter should
SOW two or three times as much
seed as he viii require, and make
three or four sowings, week apart
to man9uvre for choice plants and
seasons. In preparing the seed bed
the use of muck will be found as
good an agent as can be used as a
mixture with the earth. The great
advantage of this fertilizer is the
fact that the muck clings to the root
at the transplanting time and pro-
tects the fibrous off shoots, thus
furthering the growth of the trans
plant after setting. The proper time
to set tobacco plants is from the 10th
to the 18th day of June, but may be
done earlier or later. 1t is usually
done Immediately after a rain.
