Sharks Show.

John H. Sparks show struck town
yesterday. coming from Oxford. They
gave a performance in the afternoon
and night, which were witnessed by
fairly good audiences. There were
many ladies and children present and
the performances were thoroughly en-
joyed.
1t is good show and we'll worth
more than the price Of admission, 20
cents. Some of the features are very
fine, the educated horses being as good
as ever seen here The acrobatic
feats, contortionist acts and trapeze
performances are above the average,
and upon the whole first-class enter
ta!nment is provided.
Mr.. Sparks, the proprietor, is clever
and agreeable gentleman, and the peo-
pie associated with him are ali artists
in their line, courteous and conslderate,
and make friends wherever they 90.
There is nothing Objectionable about
the performance and ladies and chill
dren may attend with perfect proprIety.
The marvellous intelligence of the
trained horses is really instructive as
showing what dumb beasts Of ::this
kind are capable of being taught by
mans patience and Kindness.
We do not hesitate to commend
Sparks Show to the patronage Of our
people, feeling assured that they will
feel amply repaid for the time and
money spent to witness the perform
ance
Two performances will be given
to-day at $50 and 8 o'clock p. m.

Dining and Sleenino Cars

A recent issue of "Public Opinion" has the
| following about the equipment and expense of
dining and sleeping ears on railroads: Ginning
cars are generally run at loss. A stew ard,
four cooks, and five walters are attached to
each car. The food costs from $1,000 to 81 500
a month. 1t costs from $4,000 to So. 900 a year
to run one Of these cars, exclusive of the wear
and tear. A sleeping car leaving New York
Cor Chicago is supplied with 100 sheets, 12O
pillow slips and 100 towels. The washing is
done in different cities at low rate One COM
pany, for 700 cars, uses every month 2,4O0 dozen
! cakes of toilet soap, 200 dozen boxes matches,
80 dozen hair brushes, so dozen whisks, GO
dozen combs, and vast number of sponges
and busters" These conveniences are now so
common on first-cass roads as TO excite no
! comment except the '.kick'' OF some passenger
who fancies he has not had everything. There
used to be a little objection to the uniform price
of meals, but that is not heard since the "cafe
plan" was adopted. The publisher of a prom
inent st. Paul daily said lately-'I like the cafe
plan on the Burlington dining cars, because
can pay according to my appetite and the at
| fractions of the bill, and don't pay for what
some other fellow wants" The diners on this
line have the name OF peerless" in menu and
cuisine, and the compartment sleepers are the
"fnest." See that your ticket to Chicago or st.
Louis reads via the Burlington. FCr any special
information address W j. G. Kenyon, Gen.

mil lei ISn-

april lslh. 1919.
The rain storms which occurred on
Sunday and Monday OF last week were
quite general, and or the 18th snow
fell 10 a depth of from two to four
inches over a good portion Of the state.
This gave the soil good wetting and
assisted in extracting the frost, which
is mostly out of the ground in the
southern counties and but little re-
mains in the central, while in the
northeast portion theice is Just break
ing up and the gro;aI Is still frozen.
Throughout grvdU portion Of the
state the soil is in fine condluIon, but
in some localities ii Is little heavy
owing TO the recent rains, which have
caused some delay in seeding In tie
southwest and extreme southern
counties but little rain fell and as a
result the cat crop is,ab0ut all in, and
some early potatoes have been plant
ed. In the northwest portion the
season is opening up under favorable
conditions and seeding will soon COM
mence.
Notwithstanding that spring plant
ing has been delayed in the central
counties owing TO cold, wet weather,
more natural condisi0ns of weather
and season prevail, causing more
cheerful feeling among farmers than
existed week ago.
Winter wheat shows some improve
ment, especially in the south and east
portions, but looks poor, and in the
most exposed fields IL is a total failure.
Many winter wheat, fields are being
plowed to be resown with spring wheat
or oats. Rye is looking remarkably
in. oil IL Of "a tot % l.,
clover is generally reported entirely
killed. timothy is coming out in fine
condition. grass is how starting up
finely which will be'beneficial TO the
many who are short of fodder.
Cranberry vines wintered poorly and
the planting of new vines will be quite
general this spring. Maple sugar
making is in progress in the northern
portion though the conditions are not
very favorable. Stock looks well and
as yet there has beeh no serious lack
of fodder. Some cqm plants received
of dysentery among bees. causing large
mortality. Pig and lamb crop good
and in healthy condition. Water very
low in streams and wells, many being
now dry.
The crop conditions have on the
whole improved decidedly. More
moisture is needed, in the southwest,
and the frosty soil has retarded yege-
tation in other sections, but week of
favorable weather will make good the
delay, which in the END will prove an
advantage, especially TO fruit, which
is liable to be caught by frost in May
if advanced too rapidly at this period.
The temperature during the first
half of the week was considerably be-
low the normal, frosts occurring every
night, while the last half was quite
warm. Sunshine about the average,
winds variable and gales frequent.

Ex-senator Sawyer, who had paid
about one hundred aEd fifty thousand
dollars as bondsman on the bonds of
ex-Treasurers Guenther and Harshaw
on account of interest recovered by
the state cannot understand why the
state should not recover on the bonds
of BaetZ and Kuehn. There are
many people in Wisconsin besides the
Oshkosh statesman who cannot
understand why Baetz and kuehn
should not refund the one hundred
and sixty thousand dollars of interest
money which the courts have decided
that they unlawfully retained, since
Guenther, Harshaw and McFetridge
and their bondSmen have been COM
PEELED To disgorge. Legislative relief
has been sought in the cases of Baetz
and Kuehn. and if the legislature is
going into the rebate business there
seems to us TO be no reason for relief
OF BaetZ and kuehn which would not
apply with equal force 10 the cases of
Guenther Harshaw. and McE etridge
Any law for the relief OF one should
in common fairness apply alike to all.

We do not believe that the legisla-
ture was justified in taking the case
against eX-State Treasurers Kuehn
and Baetz away from the court. Ii
these men were not as liable as the
later State Treasures for the interest
on money deposited by them the
courts would have so decided, and If
they were liable there should have
been no discrimination or favoritism.
The action of the legislature is I'M
Unsuitable and if the Governor mad
paid the slightest attention to the
Republican platform upon which he
was elected he would have vetoed the
bill passed for the relief of the two
gentlemen mentioned. There is no
Justice or fair play in collecting the
judgments against some of the
Treasures and letting others go scot
free. But it was, perhaps, too much
to expect of the Governor that he
would veto a bill as largely in the
interest of the Influences which nOmf-
n. Ted him. Two years hence. if the
Republican party can stand up under
the burden, we may look for an
effort to refund the money paid into
the Treasury by Sawyer, Guenther,
Harshaw and McFetridge.
