The seed is the Vital Thing

Planting must be begun right, else no
amount of cultivation or fertilizer can
prevent the crop being failure. The
tirst step is the selection OF the seed. DO
not take any risks here. Get seeds that
you can depend upon-seeds that are
fresh, that have a reputation behind
them. The most reliable seeds grown IN
this country are Ferry's Seeds. Wher.
ever seeds are sown the name Of ID. NJ
Ferry II Co., OF Detroit Mich, Is guar
antee of quality and freshness. The
The greatest care and strictest caution
are exercised IN the growing, selection,
packing and distribution OF their seeds
Not only must they be fresh, but they
must be true to name.
On a par with the quality ofthe seeds
is Ferry's Seed Annual for 1897, the most
comprehensive and valuable book OF the
kind ever printed. Every planter, large
and small. should get. read and digest
this book before planting single seed.

Senator sherman Said All He Had to Say
at Pittsburg.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Sher-
man returned to Washington from
Canton on AN early train. He confirmed
the report that he had signitied to
Major Mckinley his acceptance of the
Office of secretary of state, but declined

With reference to the policy of the
next administration on the Cuban
question, the senator declined to add
anything to it's Pittsburg interview,
except to say that the main effort of
the incoming administration would be
to preserve peace between this country
and foreign nations. He declined to
outline policy on the question of ar.
bitration by England, except to say
that that matter had been settled so far
as the executive branch of the govern.
ment is confirmed by the negotiation of
the arbitration treaty.

Green Hay Fishermen Had an Exciting
Experience.
MILWAUKEE, Jan. ls.-Another spe-
cial to- The Wisconsin from Marinette,
Wis.,, says: At noon all doubt as tc
the probable fate of the fishermen was
removed. Manuel Holgren, Charles
Nylund, John johnson and Otto Lar
son came across from Green island in q
skiff and reported that they had left
six others on the island. They will be
brought over on the lighthouse keepers s
boat. AS quickly as the fishermen felt
the current in the bay changing, they
knew danger was ahead, and most Of
them scurried for the island. All
of them arrived safely but Ed Hoffman,
who was being borne away on the ice.
when boat went out and rescued him.
The most remarkable escape was that
of Sam Lund, who got to shore in his
sled. He was far out on the bay and
put up - feet of canvas and literally
SKINNED over slush and cake ice and
jumped cracks four feet wide before
reaching strong ice. He was drenched
from head to foot The ice went out
in half an hour, and though the bay
looks opened from here. the fishermen
state the ice is crushed in between
Green and Chambers islands.
Grave fears are felt for the safety of
Theo Johnson of Sturgeon Bay, for
merly vice president of the Menominee
River Shingle Manufacturing company.
Mr. johnson started from Menominee
to skate to Sturgeon Bay, and nothing
has been heard from him since. In
quiries are being sent out all along the
east shore, and 1t is hoped he reached
Egg Harbor. The sudden movement
Of ice in the bay took out over $500
worth of herring nets. o.. A. Lindlotf
lost three large nets; A. ]. Heck lost
81; H. C. Enger lost 20, and other fish

boys clean out and prepare a stove sit

the large boys to see if the work had
been properly done. He reported
everything all right and Mrs.
Britton then retired. She had
been III bed but short time when
she smelled smoke and Immediately
jumped up to investigate. Even the
floor under her feet was almost too hot
to stand on. She at once raised the
alarm and runners were sent to all the
rooms to alarm the children and get
them out of the building as quickly as
possible. In her anxiety to get the
children out she neglected to assist
those who were in her room and all
five perished. The building with all its
furniture was entirely destroyed

A prOminOnt member of Governor
Bushnell's staff who, for obvious rea-
sons, did not desire his name to bs used,
said
II think it is practically certain that
the governor will not assume the re-
sponsibility of selecting Senator Sher-
mans successor himself. There are
many reasons why he would prefer to
call the legislature together and let
that body settle the question. The sit.
uatiOn i'll Ohio, despite all this talk
about harmony, is really very delicate,
and as the transfer Of Sherman to the
cabinet means a genaral readjustment
of things, good deal of caution is
necessary i'll making the first move.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The bureau

just published most exhaustive re-
port upon land taxation and labor laws
in New Zealand, prepared by United

presentation of the extraordinarily ad-
vanced application of socialistic prin-

Professor Swing of Oberlin College
Talks Encouragingly of Annexation

\. T. Swing, professor of theology
in Oberlin college, Oberln, Ohio, upon
his arrival in San Francisco, gave an
interview on Hawaii. He was in the
Islands partly for recreation and par,-
ly to make a careful study of the col,
fee industry and its prospects.
He spent several weeks examining
coffee lands on the different islands
He says that coffee culture is only in
its infancy in Hawaii, and that there
are great areas of land well adapted
to coffee, but not yet planted He is
emphatically in favor of annexation,
and believes that it would greatly pro.
mote the culture of coffee. The is
lands themselves he looks upon as n
valuable acquisition for commercial
and naval purposes in the event of the
completion of the Nicaragua canal.

Saved by One Chance In Ten Million

Saved by One Chance In Ten Million.
The accidents that astonish railroad
men are those that happen without hurt
ing anybody. Such q mishap occurred to
the Lake Shore f1ier, from Cleveland,
coming into Chicago last Saturday
morning. A steel tire slipped from one
Of the driving wheels of the engine, with
the train going at full speed. This was
extraordinary. But that it should slip
OFF the wheel, over the connecting rod
and fall clear of the track, instead of
wrecking the train, was miraculous.
The driving wheel revolves, say, four
times every second, covering that same
second 80 feet of the rail. Fracture
the tire, with it's deep inner flange,
made to keep it ON the rail, and try,
with that big connecting rod rising and
falling two feet every quarter of a sec
Ond, and the broken tire rolling 80 feet
every second, to make the tire fall off
the wheel and over the connecting rod,
30 it shall drop clear Of the wheel, the
rod, the rail and the train.
This could not happen once in TO-
900, 900 times. Yet ON last Saturday
morning, on the Lake Shore fier COM
ing into Chicago, it did that very thing,
and the passengers, instead of being
smashed up in wreck, marveled over
the remarkable occurrence. Chicago
