AVOIDING POTATO SCAB.

After series of experiments, Prof
Bolly of the North Dakota station comes
to the conclusion that he can avoid the
production Of scabby potatoes if he
cannot entirely eradicate the disease.
He finds no substantial evidence that
any soil of whatsoever kind can in
itself give origin to the disease. But
the disease germ can and does remain
in the ground from crop to crop for at
least four years. Scabby or disease
bearing seed tubers can and will under
ordinary circumstances produce dis
eased crop. But by soaking the seed
tubers before planting in chemical
solutions enabled him to raise an un-
diseased product from the scabbiest of
seed where the ground was known to
be free from the disease Seed tubers
free from the disease germs will in any
soil, clay, sand or muck raise an un-
diseased produce, provided only that
the soils themselves are free of the
disease.

CRUEL PRACTICES.

4 writer in the Stockman enumerates
some thoughtless practices from which
farm horses suffer, which can be
remedied by little thoughtful consider
alton. He says: The most cruel thing
that farmers and others do with their
horses is the practice Of putting brides
on them without first thawing the bits
out. Some Of the neighbors say they
haven't time to hold brides by the fire.
[ usually dip my bits in the watering
troughs, which is just as good. AS soon
as they are wet they will not stick to
the mouth. And some people will
leave the breast straps down when they
are not holding up neck-yoke. Some
times they have heavy irons on them,
which strike the horses legs quite hard.
| have seen farmers plow for weeks
with breast straps hitting the horses
nearly every step they took. Let us
try to be more conslderate and
thoughtful.

APJDS WOOD COUNTY, WISCONSIN, THURSDAY FEB 25 1899

Tried as by furnace fires and vet
By Gods grace only stronger made;
In future tasks before thee set
Thou shalt not lack the old-time aid.
The fathers sleep. but men remain
As true and wise and brave as they;
Why count the loss without the gain?
The best is that we have to-day.
No lack was in thy primal stock,
No weakling founders builded here
They were the men of Plymouth Rock,
The Puritan and Cavalier.
And they whose firm endurance gained
The freedom of the souls of men,
Whose hands unstained in peace maintained
The swordless commonwealth of Penn.
And time shall be the power of all
To do the work that duty bids;
And makes the peoples Council Hall
As lasting as the Pyramids.
Thy lesson all the world shall learn,
The nations at thy feet shall sit;
Earth's farthest mountaIn-tops shall burn
With watchfires from thine own uplit
Great, without seeking to be great
By fraud or conquest-rich in gold,
But richer in the large estate
Of virtue which thy children hold.
With peace that comes of purity,
And strength to simple justice due,
So owns our loyal dream of thee.
God of our fathers! make it true.
land of lands to thee we give
Our love, our trust, our service, free;
For thee thy sons shall nobly live
And at thy need shall die for thee

RICHES.

What we porsistentlv think we are,
that we gradually become. No one can
deny this, hence thought is a creation.
If we continually think we are honest
and truthful, we cannot be dishonest
and untruthful; whatever we persist
emily try to do we naturally carry out,
hence we create condition for
ourselves. This may shape our character
or ou1 business. We could not be even
deceptive unless we had thought it.
When we train child, if the child does
well, we think it is our work, when it is
no such thing. At the very most we
can only point way, and it rests with
the child whether it goes Chat way or
some other. We should never judge
another by our condition, nor should we
try to fit our condition to another; we
should never offer advice unless we
have the occult power to enter the
condition of the person we should
advise, and few ever get this power.
In the Scientific American for Jan. 16 is
an article entitled "Many Man is
Rich Without Money" Both the
editor and the writer of the article
realize that there is something beautiful
in the hidden truth that caused the
article to be written; but neither knows
what the truth is. Money never made
a man rich no matter how much he was
given for no man is rich until he has
found contentment, and when he has
found that, he loves his neighbor as
himself He then sees the cause of all
things, hence could prevent disaster.

LA GRIPPE.

No healthy persons need fear any
dangerous consequences from an attack
of la Grippe if properly treated. 1t
is much the same as severe cold and
requires precisely the same treatment.
Remain quietly at home and take
Chamberlain cough Remedy as direct
ed for severe cold and a prompt and
complete recovery is sure to follow.
This remedy also counteracts any
tendency of la Grippe to result in
pneumonia. Among the many thous-

MUSICAL I REAT.

Messrs. Rus Lyon, Noble Day and
Chas. Krause, of Wausau, three able
artists respectively on the guitar, banjo
and piccolo banjo, spent Monday
in this city. On Monday they gave the
young men musical treat with the
three instruments combined that is bard
to beat anywhere. Through the kind
ness of Geo. n. Wood the writer was
given a reserved seatat his Office, where
the gentlemen we're playing. which was
held down until the strains were at an
end. We hope the boys will find
another opportunity to visit us as their
company and music is very much
appreciated by their friends in the
twin cities.

BIRTHDAY BALL.

The Gardner Rifles ball last Monday
evening was great success, as far as
numbers in attendance was concerned.
At one time over four hundred were in
the rink. But the great trouble was
that only a little over Il hundred of
these were paving attendants. 1t has
been the custom heretofore to permit
each gentleman to bring as many ladies
as be chose, and there is no objection to
that, but this evening the gentler sex
seem to have taken it for granted that
the floor was free to them, whether
they had escort or not. AS a conse
quence the hall was over-crowded, the
ventilation was bad and the dance not
nearly so enjoyable as it would other
wise have been.
We presume that the fact of Mr.. Dana
being here caused the general turnout
of ladies. They knew that the music
would IN itself be rare treat. But
they should remember that such music
is costly, and that those who pay ad-
mission are entitled to the benefits of
the floor unincumbered with the excess
of chairs made necessary by the pres
ence of so many who do not pay
We would suggest that, in the future,
at such balls, none be permitted TO 90
upon the floor of the hall without a full
ticket or attendance by an escort, and
that no one be permitted to go into the
gallery without paying a small sum. In
that way the entertainment will be
secured to those who pay for it, This
is but Justice to all concerned.
In spite of the crush all in attendance
enjoyed themselves, and Dana's orqhes-
ira scored another success.

He Stole . Tombstone.

POcatellO Tribune.
There is an editor in Idaho who
bears this enviable reputation of
being a graveyard nocturnal visitor
and who sails under the euphoni-
Gus title of Tombstone Brown"
He is the proprietor of the Mos
COW Democrat and following is the
story they (those who know him
best) tell on him: 1T seems that
Mr.. Brown was running a small
weekly paper in Missouri, or some
other seaport town, and the plank
he was using for the imposing stone,
warped SO badly one night as to
"pie" a couple of forms. This tenn
porarily stopped the wheels of pro-
gress and Browns paper; but, moth
ing daunted, he started out in search
of another board. On his way to
the lumter yard he passed the vii
lage church yard, where reposed
the ashes of number of his friends
and many of his enemies; u happy
thought struck him. History tells
us that he never fully recovered
from the effects Of the blow. That
night accompanied by an express
wagon and blind boy he entered
the silent city of the dead, and APP
propriated the most highly artistic
ally finished tombstone, which he
placed in his Office, n substitute for
the pine board. He then went to
work rasusitating the remains of
the forms, merrily whistling "rm
going home to pie no more" In
n short time the paper was ready
for press and the world moved
once again.
1t is further alleged that the
man whose grave ia now unmarked
and forgotten was, when living, a
bitter enemy of the editor, and a
veteran of the late war. We will
not vouch for this tale; but, if true,
it shows the relentless enterprise
of a western editor, and we predict
that no will get there Eli" though
his path be strewn with libel suits
and delinquent subscribers, galore,
