Progress impels us to effort. Newly
developed lines make the old uprofitable

of agriculture. Great markets have
opened up our live stock which have
forced us into making progress in pro-
ducing the best. We are adopting i'm
proved breeds and improved methods of
feeding to meet competition and gain
more profit.
Sheltering stock saves feed and flesh
Even low feed is worth saving these
times, and every pound of grain should
be made with comfort and care. While
prices for stock are low, it is all the
more important to gain all the size and
quality we can.

pounds of oleomargerine. valued at u

The wise poultryman sells as soon

keep for many weeks.
To make good layers hens must have
regular and sufficient supply of egg

themselves, but when shut up in winter
they can not be expected to do we'll un-

Very fat fowls are poor breeders. and

Pine needles make an excellent nest,

two million dollars. Germany took %.
million pounds of the former, while Eng
land took nearly half the butter.
Chicago has handled conveniently and
properly cared for $4,000 head of cattle
in one day; her largest daily receipt of
hogs was about $1,000. In one week
she has taken in over 100000 head of
swine. No other place in the world can
receive, handle and ship such an amount
of live stock as is handled at this mar
ket.
Pure bred sires are the only hope of
profitable breeding in the strong compe-
tition of Nations in the worlds markets.
We must have the best quality or none.
The science is better understood than
ever before, but there is much yet for
our best breeders to learn in this fascin-
ating work.
Unsound feed of spoiled grain or hay
may develop bad results in our stock,
but filthy water supply is a more con-
slant source of disease, because of the
digestive organs becoming infected with
myriads of worms. Veterinarians have
very clearly shown that varied attacks
upon our bovine herds are due to animal
parasites invading the alimentary canal.
Diarrhea and the wasting disease
known under 30 many names are
most common on old pastures and on
poor clay soils. and are rare in housed
and we'll fed animals. and are probably
spread during long droughts by the cat
tie drinking from shallow muddy pools.
Intestinal parasites infest the bowels,
and must be removed, probably with
turpentine; then there must follow non
irritant food, and continuous supply
OF good, pure water. Get rid of the old
pools.
The men who once built hedges now
string wire fences; those who drove
stages perhaps now engineer the loco
motive; their occupations are not gone.
So the breeder of poor stock must not
complain that his calling does not pay,
for it is Of the spirit of progress, and he
must raise better or quit. If wheat
does not pay he must be intelligent
enough to keep pace with other crope.
Thirty-two packing houses cover 800
acres Of land in close proximity to the
stock yards in Chicago. This is the
greatest live stock market in the world.
During the past % years they have re.
ceived for these packing houses 46 mil
lions of cattle. one and half millions of
calves, 143 millions of hogs, and &c mil
lions Of sheep.

PAVING ASSURED
MARKET ST. AND PRAIRIE AVE. TO
BE PAVED THIS FALL.
GREAT CREDIT DUE COUNCIL.
At a Special Meeting of the Common
Council Held Thursday Evening the
Entire Job Was Decided Upon
Great improvements.

At a special meeting Of the common
council held at the council chamber
Thursday evening it was decided
to pave the three streets which
it has long been the insistence OF
this paper should be paved. Market
street is to be paved from West Main
street to the lake front, Park avenue
from South street to Jerome creek and
Prairie avenue from Park place to the
old city limits out beyond the railroad
tracks.
Not since the water works were de-
cided upon has there been so import
ant step taken by the council. 1t
had long been the hope of those sin
cerely interested in the city's growth
and prosperity that something could be
done toward the rendering of our
wretched streets more passable. They
have long been a disgrace to the city,
now that the city is awakening to new
life and enterprise, the steps will be
commended by all true lovers of enter
prise and push. 1t would be hard to
sufficiently commend the present coun-
Gil for its action. 1t is directly in line
with the best interests of the city and
with the long cherished desire of her
most progressive citizens. Soft sand
for wheels to sink into Up to the hubs
in the middle of some of the most
prominent street of the place has long
enough rendered us laughing stock
of strangers and means OF reproach
between ourselves. 1t is, therefore,
one of the pleasantest things to call to
mind, the thought that all this is to be
done away-and this fall!
The thing which has rendered this
thing possible has been the discovery OF
way by which the assessments for this
class of work can be spread over a
period of five years. By adopting a
portion of the general laws relating to
towns, villages and cities, the city may
issue semi-annual interest coupon
bonds, payable at the option Of the
city at the end of five years, and abso-
lutely at the end of seven years from
their date, which shall draw interest
not exceeding 6 per cent. per annual.
This enables the property owner to
pay for improvements in five annual
installments. The burden does not
come all at once and to those unable
to pay fully in one payment this dis
covery comes as boon as we'll as to
the city. Now, let the work be push
ed with all due expedition.

HERE'S TO YOU, MILWAUKEE,.
And Success to Your Semi-Centennia1
Celebration.

Milwaukee will keep open house the
10th and 18th of this month, and her
invitation will be honored by thousands
of the best of Wisconsin's citizens, in
Guiding many from Kenosha, who will
help in the proper celebration OF the
semi-centennial anniversary of the
metropolis of Wisconsin. Beautiful for
situation, overlooking with majestic
pose great Lake Michigan; full of
homes that delight the eye of the home
lover, and in which a most hospitable
people dwell; embracing institutions of
art and learning and entertainment
which influence for good the remotest
boundaries of Wisconsin; supporting
newspapers so we'll managed that they
are strongly influential even in the So
luton of National economic problems,
Milwaukee is the pride Of Wisconsin,
the representative of her growth and
progress the city of all others,
outside local environment, the citizens
of this great state delight to honor.
Her mercantile houses are abreast the
best houses of the east or west, her in
dusJries are most important chord in
the great labor anthem the world is
singing, and her port is one of the most
important on the great lakes. Milwau-
kee? Why, she is the most comely of
all the family, the child that represents
most gloriously the stability and per-
manence Of resources possessed by our
pater, Wisconsin, and we all love her.

done to hold them here. 1t starts out
by declaring that these are good con-
Germs to keep here for the general prosss
perity of the city. That point is grant
ed.
Next, in few words it epitomlzes
the necessities and demands of the two
companies. That seems to be very
fairly done. Then comes the point
upon which the issue is taken and that
paper asks how the public or the Bust
ness Mems association can help either
one of the wants of these two concerns.
The Business Mems association can do
a great deal.
When the matter of securing two
outside factories came up the Business
Mems association found way of doing
exactly the very thing these two home
concerns want. We are very much
mistaken if the objects of the Business
Mems association are not of a very
similar nature to that followed out in
securing the two new concerns. One OF
them wanted a new factory building
and banking facilities to the extent of
some $4,000 to $4,000 or what
amounted to the same thing. The AS
ISOLATION appointed committees to
hustle around to see what could be
done. In all things in life where there
is will there is a way and in these
matters the way was readily found, and
the two factories were fastened down
here. We have all the more reason
for doing these very things for our
home concerns for the very reason that
they are of home birth and it should,
therefore, be a matter of pride with us
to keep them and nOurish their
growth. The association was founded
for these very purposes and little
hustling among some of the active
members would undoubtedly bring
most desirable results. If the Bust
ness Mems associations of other cities
can do these things and hold out the
inducements desired it would be very
inexcusable piece of business foolish
ness to let them pluck the industries
from us. They may not need very
strong inducements. Whether they
do or not'it should be the business of
the association to at least find out and
make some effort to hold them.
All qOe contend for is that an effort
be made to hold them, and not sit
supinely by and see them go and then
howl dismally after they are gone be
causeof what might have been. Moth
ing short of treachery to the inter ests
of the city will condone such inaction

ASSIGNEE HALE TALKS.
He Tells Little Something of the Bank
Affairs to Reporter.

Assignee George Hale, of the Dan
Head & Co. bank, is not in the habit
of talking much for publication, but
the other day representative of this
paper inveigled him into quiet cor
ner and began pumping him. He
started out by telling Mr.. Hale that
the public was very much interested in
knowing something about the banks
affairs and he was asked:
I" How are the collections coming in
for Dan Head & Coz"
We are gaining every day in
funds, replied the assignee. But a
good many do not seem to realize that
they must pay their notes now when
they come due, and that | have no au-
thority to give them any extension of
time. About every day we have some
one coming in and begging us to let
him have little more time, but under
the assignment that is something which
is impossible"
Have you commenced any suits to
force collections?"
"Not as yet. / shall endeavor to
give everyone ample notice and be
reasonable, but the creditors of the
bank expect me tc collect the money
as fast as due, which it is my duty to
do, and if am obliged to commence
suits those liable will have no one to
blame but themselves"
elbow soon do you expect to pay a
dividend 2"
"Just as soon as the court will order
it, which in all probability will not be
until the last of December"
GLOW large will the first dividend
be-"
"That is impossible to say. We ex-
pect it will be at least 25 per cent.
The bank building is to be sold before
long. That will very materially help
matters along if disposed of at once.
We are pushing things right along,
just as rapidly as possible, and expect
everything to come out all right"
