A Farm or n Factory.

When you buy farm or build a factory. it
is natural to consider all conditions. and to
locate to the very best advantage. In the
northern portion of Wisconsin there lies a
vast portion of undeveloped, or partially de.
veloped country, which is awaiting the set
tier and manufacturer to turn into produc-
tiveness and wealth.
Thousands of acres OF rich lands covered
with fine hardwood timber are open to the
settler, who can obtain as much as he de-
sires at very reasonable figures and upon EASY
terms. improvements, such as school houses
and roads are being pushed and ten years Of
of prOgress will make an astonishing change
Tie earth's rich deposits of iron ore, clay
kaOlin and mari, together with hardwood
timber, easily supply the wants of the manu-
facturer and offer fine inducements for the
location of a plant or factory.
The Wisconsin Railway Company running
through this rich timber and mineral belt.
has opened to the world by offering quick and
cheap transit to the principal markets of the
country.

follows:
William Dickey, who has been a

A NUMBER of young men down at
Madison, who have found that stay
ing up nights is pleasant but never
theless hard on the system, are MAX
ING an attempt for the benefit of
future generations of students to so
operate nature by means of science
as to reduce sleeping to minimum.
The boys seem to think that four
hours in any one night is enough for
sleep. Thomas A. Edison is the
original exposition of this theory.
We are afraid that the success of the
experiment would be disastrous, as
it would naturally prolong the hours
of the occasional night-sbirt parades,
and instead of breaking up and
going home to bed, the boys would
hang out until the result would be
that the whole batch of students
would die off with pneumonia,
episoutic, or something of that kind.
The Steamer Dixon, alone in a
gale on Lake Superior, her propeller
wheel gone, had a thrilling exper-
fence last week. A crew in a life
boat pulled fifty miles with oars to
Two Harbors and obtained relief for
the disabled boat. It was an awful
night for that little crew, but the
hardy sailors and fishermen who
saved the boats and the lives on
board are but examples Of the noble,
determined men, who sail the great
unsalted seas of the north.
THE next republican national con-
vention will be held at Philadelphia,
June 10Th, 1900. President McKin-
ley will be nominated without OPP
position, and the convention will be
little better than a ratification
meeting.

''fighting' in place of fighting, y

soldiers have been unable to capture
