Pickle Business.

A. w. Moody, manager of the pick
ling works of Alert & Nc Guire Of N .
Z, located at Green Bay, and Fred
Peterson of the same firm have been
looking over the prospects for pickle
stock in this section this season. Mr..
Peterson arrived Saturday and Mr.
Moody on Monday, and Tuesday was
spent in thorough survey of the
prospects among the various growers.
The dry weather few weeks ago
made the outlook in the department
of agriculture appear dubious, but the
recent heavy rains have completely
tTanSmographied the situation, which
is now regarded as most satisfactory.
Mr.. Peterson has been buying for the
company for the past eight years in
this state and Illinois and is regarded
as very competent judge of stock
He will remain in this city for the
balance of the season to buy and ship
the crop grown about Grand Rapids.
Scales will be arranged on side
track at the Green Bay depot and the
buying and shipping will be done from
that point. 1t is expected that the
first shipment will be made Friday OF
Saturday OF this week. The outcome
Of this experiment here will be watched
with great interest by small farmers
and gardeners, because if satisfactory
another year will see a much larger
number engaged in culture of pickle
products.

NEW INDUSTRY.
Anouher New Line OF Labor and Profit Opened
in Wood County.

The Northwestern Grass and Twine
Co., with branches at ST. Paul, Osh-
l1osh and West Superior, have rented
wire grass lands of J. d. Witter,
Henry Sampson and other parties who
have holdings in the vicinity of Bah
cock in the southern part of this
county and have begun extensive
operation in the preparation of this
crop for their mills. A large number
Of local people are employed in cutting
and gathering this crop. They
receive $3.50 per day for man and
team, including stable room and hay,
and are boarded near their work for
$500 per week.
This is the first attempt in these
parts to utilize this species of grass
which is ordinarily regarded as of
little value, although in other parts
the industry is not new one.
The process for gathering, this wire
grass consists in cutting it with a
reaper attachment, so that the bundles
are dropped unbound and left a short
time to cure. Then it is gathered and
bound with horse cleaner and after
wards pressed with large hay presses
on the ground into convenient bales OF
about IT'S pound weight for shipment
| to the factories.

Grand Rapids people will remember

wife and mother of which wandered
away from home last March during
the severe cold spell of that month
and remained out of doors for a week.
returning badly frozen at the end of
that time. One Of these girls of this
family was placed in the industrial
school OF Milwaukee nearly eight
years ago. In course of time pleas
ant home was found for her in good
family where she is we'll cared for, and
between her and her protectors a
mutual esteem has developed. Re-
Gently the father, VIM. Annis, has
been making great efforts to have his
daughter restored to his possession,
and on Monday Mrs. A. J. Kaine, re-
presenting the industrial school, came
to Grand Rapids to investigate the
matter. She drove out to Rudolph
and after becoming acquainted with
the home surroundings and life of the
AnniS family concludes that the
protegee of the school is better circum-
Stanced in the new home they have
found for her than she would be if
returned to her father.

Congressman Minor Sanguine.
from Milwaukee Sentinel.

l.
Congressman Minor WIS in the city
for a few hours yesterday afternoon.
In speaking of the political situation
in the Eighth Congressional district
Mr.. Minor said: "Everything indi-
Gates that our majority will be about
the same as it was in 1896. | have
yet to hear. of a man who voted for
Mckinley in 1896 who is not going to
do the same in 1900. The people are
satisfied with the conditions as they
exist; they take no interest in all this
talk about imperialism, militarism
and trusts, but are satisfied to allow
President Mckinley to deal with the
Eastern question, and do not wish to
try experiments that may result
disastrOusly to the business interests
of the country. There is less discus
sion of political subjects than | have
ever known during a presidential year.
The people have made up their minds
to vote for President Mckinley. 1t
will be a clean sweep for the republi-
can ticket"

DOG FARM.
Successful Kennel of Bird Dogs in the
Suburbs of Grand Rapids.

The cosmopolitan character Of Grand
Rapids is manifested by the diversity
and character Of her industries as
well Us by the social characteristics of
the people. Many people living here
do not know that in the suburbs Of
the city is large kennel in which are
bred some of the fancieSt bird dogs in
the United States. This is, however,
fact and visit to O. W. GOthke'S S
home on the west side of the city on
Cranberry street will verify this state
ment. The kennel is the property of
Ernest Oberbeck and 0. w. GOthke
and has been in existence for two
years. Mr.. Gothke formerly run a
kennel in Michigan before coming to
the Rapids and is consequently some
thing of an expert in this line
The kennel consists of several build
ings that look like large chicken
houses from the outside which are
surrounded by cOmmodiOuS yards
fenced with woven wire fence about
five feet in height. The interior of
the kennel is divided into various
apartments to facilitate the separation
of the older dogs, puppies, breeders,
etc, and is as handy as pocket in a
shirt for the uses made Of them.
Three strains of dogs are raised
pointers and two varieties of settlers
all English strains Of dogs. They
have a few handsome Gordon settlers,
but the fancieSt lot in the kennel, is
the Llewellen strain of English setter
of which they have two litters of
puppies, six in each litter. Their sire
is the Champion Lady'S Count Glad
stone, and dam Toledo Rose by
Champion Toledo Blade, all registered
dogs and said to be as fine bred
animals as there are in America. The
Llewellen puppies are valued at S35 a
piece and the cheapest dog in the
kennel commands price of $40.
Strange as it may seen no effort is
necessary to sell the highest priced
dogs, while the cheapest dog is some
times difficult to dispose of. In all
they have % dogs in the kennel. which
they only regard as nicely started.
Any dog fancier would find it worth
his while to pay visit to this dog
| farm.

From st; vens Point Journal.
The Wolf River Telephone company
which secured a franchise from this
city year ago to operate telephone
system in Stevens Point, is now en-
gagged in constructing it's toll line
toward this point and at last accounts
had the poles and line up to within a
distance of 20 miles of town, coming
west from Scandinavia. This com
pany has organized local cooperative
stock companies to operate the local
exchanges in other cities where it is
doing business, and this no doubt will
be their policy in Stevens Point.
