in Viroqua, where she has many rela-

at Sparta. on Tuesday. Mrs. Ady was
at one time resident of this city. She
had many relatives here, among them
Eflis and Willie Ady. her only grand
children. She was about 81 years of
age and was a native of Ohio, coming
to Wise onsin in the ffties, where she
has resided ever since.
Before another buying season rolls
around Viroqus business men should
make an effort to check the shipment of
enormous quantities of tobacco which
have been sent out in bundle goods to
other points for sorting and packing.
1t means much to this city and commu-
nifty. The houses necessary to handle
the next crop, the labor required, and
the taxes collected on the tobacco in
store, all would mean much to us in a
commercial way. Viroqua can be made
second to none IL Wisconsin as tobacco
center. Shall we make the attempt?
