LOCAL POLITICS.

On Tuesday quite change took place
IN the personnel of county officials.
Sheriff Bolen gave way to VIM. Stephani,

self as did likewise DR.. Luhmann as
coroner and John O'Hsra as surveyor.
Conrad Patzer on account of having no
opposition didn't seem to realize there
was anychange or that he was succeed
ing himself.
Directly after the election there was
bit of rush for the offices, but now every
thing seems quiet.
The candidates for the democratic
nomination for county judge are L. G..
Senglaub, Frank Monseau and Henry
Wernecke.
Candidates for the United States SEN
ate leave Manitowoc county severely
alone. The general impression through
ont the state is that Manltowoc county
Is fully able to manage its own political
atfaIs without outside interference. and
the impression is by no means incorrect

One other OF j. De. stories is about all

person IN this county knew Johnny Dill

II IS generally believed he walked into
the river and was drowned. Dillon was
considerable of politician and was gen
orally constable or deputy sheriff
He was shrewd enough to know that it
behooved him to be on good terms with
the lawyers from whom he expected bust
ness. and he had always some palliative
for his partisan activity when in CONVEX
satlon with republican lawyer.
Il don't want to have anything more to
do with you," said Markham to Johnny
who appeared in his office on a quiet
search for business a short time after the
presidential election of 1872. Il could

Brown, but when he votes for Horace

SHREWD SETTLERS BIG PROFITS

A large number of our new settlers on
the lands OF the North Galveston Asso-
citation are farmers from the northern
ATTITUDES who have previously eked out
bare existence on poor lands, with the
additional adverse condition of rigorous
climates. What was considered a fair
profit TO them is as nothing compared to
the profits derived from the cultivation
of the various fruits and vegetables which
are grown so profusely in Galveston
County. 1t Is not at all unusual for far
uers In this county to make from S22500
TO 81 10000 year per acre in the raising
of pears, plums, Strawberries, etc, with
about half the labor and Inconvenience
that attended their former efforts. The
North Galveston Asso citation throughtheir
local agent John Franz Il Son, Mantle
woe, Wis, are offering splendid induce
ments at present, and by taking advan-
tage of them the investor or settler in
Galveston County cannot fail to reap
abundant reward. The address of the
General office is Box 963, Minneapolis
MINI.

AMONG FARMERS.

The Agricultural Experiment Station
of the State University has just issued
bulletin on Rations for Dairy Cows. This
bulletin is valuable as its data are the re-
suits OF experiments carefully conducted
by several leading dairy men throughout
the state at the request OF the Station.
The intention e to show what kind of
food and what quantity will prove most
profitable. The average cost of food for
one cows about 10 cents per day. From
the statistics given it seems that good
feeding of stock pays.
The Farmers Institute opened on
Tuesday of this week with rather light
attendance, though all present were far
mers. The exercises were opened by an
address of welcome by Mayor Schuette.
George Mckerrow then tooku the dis
cussion of Making, Saving and Applying
Manure After which A. I. Noyes treat
ed the question of Better Tillage. Sub
soil blowing was recommended as pre-
serving the moisture of the soil. Several
questions were asked by the farmers
present.
The afternoon session was to be opened
with talk on Potatoes by Z. A. Hueb-
ner, but he was not present. Mr.. Huebner
is quite successful grower of potatoes
and his talks on that subject are al ways
interesting.
The topic, Selection and care of Dairy
Stock, which was to be discussed by Mr..
Convey was taken up by Mr.. Thorp.
Henry Sandford dealt with the subject
How shall we raise our Cows. This subject
and the next which was opened by Mr..
Fuller, Some Mistakes in Dairying, we're
fully discussed and occupied the entire
afternoon.
The evening session was very well at
tended. The music was particularly
good. Miss Eta Wells was at the piano
and the singing of Mrs. Sherman, Miss
Morrison and messrs. Sherman and Sedg-
wick was heartily enjoyed. Supt. Patzer
delivered a very able address on educa-
tlonal matters.
Pork brings quite a high price now
If farmers only knew in advance what is
to be scarce they might grow wealthy.
The farmers institute held here this
week was rather poorly attended. This
is a mistake on the part of the farmers as
the poor attendance may result in the
discontrnuance of the institute in this
county. OF course the institute will en-
able no one to grow wealthy, but through
it farmers may gam many points which
they might put in practice. There Is al
ways good in an exchange OF ideas.
A. Y. HYATT of Sheboygan county read
a paper on Wednesday morning on HUI
mainly to Dumb beasts. At the close of
| this paper some merrlment was caused
| by John Halls asking Henry Sanford
why he kept a whip and base ball club
in his barn. SandfoId explained he had
buck which had a playful disposition
and the club was used to holo. him in
proper check.
A. f. Noyes took up the subject of
Grain Raising, Mr.. Thorpe dealt with
Swine Husbandry and MIR. McKerrow
spoke on the management of sheep. Sllo
and Silage was discussed by Mr.. Noyes.
The session yesterday afternoon was quite
well attended and many of the farmers
took part ID the discussions.

MARINE.

The Ann Arbor No. 2 did not reach
Kewaunee last week. Her sheathing was
torn while forcing her way throughlc five
inches thick and she went into dry dock
at Port Huron for repairs.
TIE Sturgeon Bay canal was formally.
turned over to the United States by deed
this week. An appropriation for the
purchase of the canal was made by con-
gress at the last session.
The Ann Arbor No il making daily
trips between Frankfort and Kevaunee.
The City of Marquette is doing likewise.
People II Manitowoc are climbing on top
OF roofs to look for the whereabouts of
the steamers of the f. 4 P. NJ, and Won
derlng why the city council doesn't de-
clare forfeit the right OF way on Frank
lin and Quay streets which was granted
on condition that a line of steamers was
to be run daily between this point and
Ludington. Pete Weber's yacht s,ould
be run across if for no other purpose than
to keep up appearances and stand by the
letter of the contract. This notice will
just knock the ''stuifing" out of the city
but let the feathers fly.
Stock on the Toledo, Ann Arbor &
Northern Michigan Road has advanced
considerably because of the success of the
ferry boats between Kewaunee and
Frankfort.
The second ferry boat which is to run
from Kewaunee to Frankfort succeeded
in passing the straits and is now at he-
waunee. Orr T. &, p. NJ boats must be
looking for the sea lion, Jim Corbett, as
we rarely see one Of EN-. Hope jim Cor
bett will die or come into our harbor so
that We may see one of the T. & 2. NJ
boats chasing him and have that much
at least, for having track
laid on one OF the principal streets of our
city.

was tastefully decorated for the occasion
and the tables so arranged that responses
to toasts could be heard by all without
change of position.

guests, it being rule of the club that
each member can bring with her but one
guest. At the plate of each member was
a souvenir card, bearing her name, the
year and some design appropriate to the
purpose of the club. These were the

hand.
