with interest by his many friends in
this county: Charles Culnsn, OF this
city, has r,ade q strike up in Oneida

his claim for 100 acres OF pine land at

along from that time until last Friday
when Charley offered the squstter $500

played to decide the point. Charley
won, and paying over the money the
property passed into his hands. Ashort

tains about 10000 feet of pine and
Charley has been offered as good as

READY WIT SAVED HIM.

London Letter in the New York Tri-
bune: Sir Robert Wright, who has just
been appointed to the seat on the bench
of the High Court of Justice left vacant
by the death of Baron Huddleston, has
the reputation of being as much of a
wit and as good at repartee as his
predecessor. Innumerable stories are
told of his readiness with an answer,
and of his imperturbable aplomb, due
possibly to his Irish origin.
On one occasion while at Oxford he
was summoned before the Dean of
Balliol, the college to which he belonged,
for the purpose of being censured for
some infraction of the university bylaws
and regulations. The dean, like most
college dons, was exceedingly pompous
and careful of his personal appearance.
Wright looked the dean well up and
down while the latter was delivering his
lecture, and finally interrupted him in
the middle of one of his most telling
periods by remarklng confidentiallY:
81 know you will excuse me, sir, but
| think you cannot be aware that your
waistcoat is unbuttoned.
Completely nonplused, the dean was
only able to stammer out:
''Oh, thank you, Mr.. Wright. So
very kind of you, l am sure. Good
morning, good morning.

Convention Resolutions.

The State Farmers Convention closed
at Madison, Friday, and tho following
resolutions were adopted:
HosoEred. That it is the sense Of this
farmers convention that the present
system OF road making in this state be
abolished. and in lieu thereof there he
collected, from the taxable property in
each town, village and city mill tax
for the purpose of road building. and
that said fund thus obtained be expend-
ed in each town, village or city under
the direction of II commissioner elected
by the popular votes of the towns, viii
lagos or cities, with the advice and di-
rection of the supervisors of the towns
or city council.
ReS0lred. That the extensive adulter-
alton of daily products and foods de-
mands the most stringent prohibitory
legislation; that the law under which
the food and dairy commission was or
gained was demanded that laws of this
character might be enforced, and we
respectfully urge upon the legislature
the propriety of continuing the office Of
food and dairy commissioner and the
necessity of still further strengthening
the laws against authorizations and dis
honest labelling of foods and drugs that
honest Industries may not be driven to
the wall by the competition of fraud and
the people be protected in their pur-
chases.
ReS0lCcd. That permanent grounds
for exhibition purposes should be Sc
cured for the State Agricultural society
and to this end we favor such legislation
as shall secure to the society loan of
$3.50, 900 from the funds of the state. such
loan to be secured bp mortgage upon
property purchased and payment guar
anteed by bonds bearing per cent.
annual interest We also favor the
purchase of such grounds in the vicinity
of the city of Milwaukee, believing that
the state fair is most likely TO be iinan-
cial success near the metropolis of the
state.
ReSolrtd. That we heartily approve
the work of the farmers institutes in
Wisconsin. We believe the law under
which this work has been organized to
have been wisely framed and the appro-
priation therein is no more than sufii.
cient for its purpose We recognize in
the institutes powerful agency in the
practical education of the farmers. We
appreciate the unusual organizing talent
displayed by the superintendent. w IL.
Morrison and his thorough devotion to
| the institute work and we are proud of
the fact that the name of Wisconsin has
been made famous by the superior and
effective character of this work in all
states and countries where agriculture
is intelligently followed.

Tobacco and Barley.

EDITOR OF THE STATE JOURNAL
SIR: As you have suggested that the
farmers offer some expression of opin-
ion upon the Mckinley tariff and its eff
fects, perhaps might throw a little light
on the subject | only touch on two
points. As this il one Of the tobacco
counties | will speak OF that. 1t is con-
seeded by almost every one that the Me
Kinley tariff raised the price OF tobacco
about = on "a hundred pounds. ! have
farmer in view, one of my neighbors,
who is an expert in raising tobacco.
He usually raises about 1000 pounds on
an acre. Ee has been in the habit of
getting from to cents a pound for
his tobacco, but this year he obtained
cents pound more than his usual price.
He has a four-acre lot that he uses en-
tirely for the cultivation Of tobacco.
This year he had splendid crop, and By
the present price he obtaind about $50 an
acre more than usual. aud his four acres
thus would make the snug sum Of 1928
which he can credit almost entirely 10
the new tariff But the biggest joke was
this: He voted against the Mckinley
tariff because lit was rohbing the far
mers of the west >
Now as to barley. 1t is not doubted
by any one that the tariff of 30 cents on
Canadian barley raises the prize of
American barley at least Is cents bush
ell. So that every farmer who had the
good fortune to raise 500 bushels was
the better off BY the snug sum of SIS.
And vet / think that on account of
democratic misrepresentation thirds
Of the farmers Of this vicinity voted
against the Mckinley tariff But think
some of the more intelligent Of them
will take a different view before another
two years have passed.

TIE LONGEST DAY.

IL is quite important, when speaking
of the longest day in the year, to say
what part OF the world you are talking
about. The latitude of place changes
the length of the day to remarkable
extent.
At Stockholm, Sweden, it is eighteen
and one half hours in length
At Spitzbergen the longest day is
three and one half months.
AT London, England. and Bremen.
Prussia, the longest day has sixteen and

At Hamberg, in Germany, and Dant-

seventeen hours.
AT Wardoe, Norway, the longest day
