WILD CAT KILLED.
A st. Bernard Dog, Owned by Supt.
H. @. Head, Puts Up Big
Fight on Saturday

On Saturday evening last, Supt. I'll.
G. Heads ST. Bernard dog won the
distinction of killing one of the largest
wild cats seen in this section for long
time; it measured three feet and ten
inches from tip to tip, and was about
eighteen inches in height. From APP
pearances it is about two years old.
The wild cat seemed to be in search of
food, as it came sneaking around the
asylum chicken coop, only few rods
back of the asylum building There
the cat was spied by the St. Bernard
which, at the time, was seated near the
rear entrance of the asylum. The dog
made dash for the animal and before
the cat could wag its stub of tail the
fight was on, and it was a lively tussle
for about fifteen minutes; at last Mr..
st. Bernard inserted his teeth in the
cats back and managed to break its
back bone, causing death. Mr.. Head
has taken the carcass to the taxidermist
and will have a handsome rug made OF
its hide, leaving on the head, feet, etc.

NOW FREE FROM DEBT.
The D. A. u. ". Society to Celebrate
the Event, April 2Sth.

The d. A. u " Society (Deutschel
Arbeiter Unterstuetzungs Verein-
German Laborers Assistance Society,
at its meeting, on Wednesday evening,
decided to make its last payment OF
S725, freeing the society from its in
debtedness of S700 that has been hang
ing over it during the past eight
years and which has steadily been paid
off up to the present time. 1t was. also
decided at the meeting that the occasion
should be fittingly celebrated on April
28th. Only the members and families
of the society are to take part in cele-
brating the event The program will
consist of vocal, instrumental music,
literary selections, and speeches by
some of the members, followed by a
social dance and refreshments. The
ID. A. u. V. Society was organized
February 18th, 1883, by F. A. Frutten,
who was sent up here from Clin-
ton, Iowa, to work for Curtis
Bros. & CO. Mr. Frutten conceived the
idea of forming such a society in Wau-
sau from similar organization in Clin-
ton Mr. Frutten resided in Wausau
from '8l to Stand then left for Dubuque,
at which place he is now president of
the Frutten Lumber Company He
called the first meeting in the west side
engine house, where the society was
organized with thirteen charter mem
bers. From that time on the society
continued to grow until it now has 70
members. After holding meetings in
the west side engine house for some
time, the members hired the old Music
Hall; later, upstairs in the old Brehmer
saloon building on the west side, which
formerly occupied the place where the
present Brehmer brick building now
stands, which is now occupied by
Albers' and Osswalds' west side stores
and after that, in the year of 'S6, the
society decided to build a small build
ing Q6x24 of their own, corner of
Garfield and Third avenues. In 1891,
when the membership was so large and
funds plenty in the treasury, the society
commenced the erection of the present
building as an addition to the smaller
one, which is now used as the bar-room.
This building was completed in the
spring of '92 at a cost of 900, includ-
ing the real estate. $500 of the amount
had been raised among the members
and that left debt of 500. The di-
of the basement of the present
ID. A. T. " hall are 36x66, the stage is
l2X14, the part of the hall used for
dancing is 36x40. In the front part of
the hall are ladies' toilet room and
ticket office, each 10x12. The scenery
used on the stage was purchased from
the old Music Hail. The society also
has gymnasium and a library of sever
al hundred volumes.

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.
A Preventive of Oat Smut and Potato
Scab. How to Use it.

The loss to the farmers of Wisconsin
due to smut in oats amounts to hundreds
of thousands of dollars annually; prac-
tically all of this loss may be saved by
treating the seed oats before planting,
ata very slight cost. All that is neces-
sary is to thoroughly saturate the seed
oats with solution made by adding one
pound of formalin to so gallons of water.
To use this remedy, place layer Of
oats or inches thick on the barn floor
and sprinkle them with the formalin
solution until they are entirely wet:
then another layer may be placed on
the first layer and sprinkled as be-
fore, repeating the process until all the
seed oats have been sprinkled; then
when they should be spread out thinly
to dry. They should be shoveled over
once or twice a day until dry. If they
are TO be sown broadcast, it will not be
necessary to dry them. Formalin may
be purchased at any drug store, and
costs from 60 to IS cents per pound.
About one gallon of the solution is
enough to sprinkle bushel of oats,
hence one pound of formalin is enough
to treat so bushels of seed oats. For
malin is not dangerous to use. The
oats will not be likely to be injured by
it, even if left in the pile somewhat
longer than two hours.
FOR POTATO SCAB.
The value of formalin as preventive
of potato scab has been demonstrated
by several experiment stations. The
treatment is easily applied, and gives
in most cases a crop much freer from
scab than untreated seed, and in soil
free from scab germs, the prevention is
generally complete.
Immerse the unsprouted seed pota-
toes, before cutting, for two hours in a
solution of one-half pound of formalin
in Is gallons of water. If the tubers
are deeply scabbed, extend the time to
three or four hours. After treatment
cut the tubers in the usual manner.
The same solution may be used five or
six times in succession if the immersion
is continued little longer each time.
Do not use the potato solution for oat
smut, as it is too strong, nor the oat So
luton for potatoes, as it is too weak.
