Candidate for Treasurer.

EDITOR TINES: In your last issue [
stated that would not be a candi-
date for Office at the coming spring
election, and that under the circum-
stances / could not allow my name
to be used in connection with the
treasurership as agsinst Mr.. L. 0
Johnson. Circumstances unforeseen
at that time have arisen and Death
has claimed my old friend. There
is now no reason why | should not
be candidate, and I hereby an
nounce myself as in the field for
treasurer. My interests are all in
Washburn, and I stand before the
people on my record as public

consideration. Promises of appoint
ment is always a hindrance to eff
cient service, and promises of pro-
lection to gamblers and other law
breakers is q hIndrance to good
government
Washburn is today completely in
the hands of the most vicious ele-
ment of it's population. [ ask your
support of the following issues:
APPOINTMENTS:
NO promises of appoin tments.
Fitness for the position should
govern all appointments. The peo-
pies interests must be concerned.
BUSINESS.
An economical and business like
application of the public funds. The
same rules that apply to private
business should apply to public
business.
PUBLIC WORK.
Great care should be exercised
in making improvements where they
are the most needed, and a dollar
should pay for as much work for
the town of Washburn as for a pri-
vate individual.
LAW AND ORDER.
The license question is not an
issue this spring and we will likely
have saloons for some time to come.
AS long as there are saloons in
Washburn the people are interested
in that business and have right to
say how it shall be conducted. Con-
certs in saloons shall be abolished.
Gambling shall cease and Wash
burn shall be made a very unpleas-
place for gamblers and their cap
pers.
The law governing the sale of
liquors to minors shall be enforced,
and boys shall be kept out of
saloons.
No man shall be supported for any
office who encourages illegal voting
Let US demonstrate the fact that
we are able to govern ourselves with
some degree of decency if we want
to. Yours for good government,

ION This Occasion we are
pleased to note that the Fat Man "
safely returned to the editorial den
at Medford. We missed our friend
Anderson on the evening Of the first
day of the Northern Wisconsin
Press Convention and became solicit
tous concerning him, but he's all
right and thus explains the picture
Of him in the Milwaukee Journal.
Brother Anderson says:
Yes, pleasant enquirer, that pic
ture of the Fat Man, duplicate of
which appeared in the Milwaukee
Journal Tuesday, was taken some
thing less than forty years ago.
Any old time you think the fat man
will advertise himself to the rich
widows of the state as a bald-head-
ed, corpulent old stiff you can make
up your mind that you don't know
the Fat Man. We may be bald
headed, too fat for comfort, and
stiff, but we are not in the business
of telling of it.
The write-up of the convent ton by
the Star and News is in Brother
Anderson S happy style, and it is
evident from the reading of it that
the famous Chippewa water left
liver in excellent spirits.
tft
One of the evidences that this is a
free country is found in the fact that
any man can run for Office and have
his name on ''the ticket TIE only
Sreqairment is to make the neces-
sary arrangements with the printer.
So few men in town have got the
idea in their heads that they can do
a woman'S work in the kitchen and
in waiting on guests at sociable.
It is frequent thing for women to
suppose they can do a mans work
and take his place at any old thing
from making the collections to spend
ing all the money and in dicating his
vote for mayor; but the presumption
of man to think he can take a
woman's place is something hereto
fore unheard Of That those who
tried the experiment made a success
of it at the soclable last evening is
perhaps due to the fact that each
participant no doubt received
thorough instructions before leaving
home as to the time and the why
fore concerning each particular
thing.

FEEDING THE HORSES.
Many Farmers Make . Mistake by
Giving Them Too Much Hay and
Not Enough Grain.

Farmers generally do not give the
feeding of their horses the attention
they should. The dairy COW and the
feeding steer are carefully examined
and discussed, but the feeding of the
horse is usually all the hay he can eat
and various quantities of oats and
corn, according to the amount of
work being done. Sometimes even the
latter part is neglected. If a horse is
expected to do eXtra hard work he
should be literally and regularly fed.
The horse has a small stomach in pro-
portion to his size, hence frequent
feeding when under hard work is nee
essary. The human stomach can bear
hunger far better than that of a
horse. When driving on a journey
you feel hungry you may be sure
your horse has felt it before you did,
and is needing his feed more than you
do.
Opinions differ q great deal as to
the watering of horses. Some prefer
to have the water in their stalls. 9th
ers prefer watering only as the horses

feeding. Horses should not be wa
tered after meals, as the stomach, be-
ing small, is liable to be partially
emptied of the undigested food, caus
ing trouble in the bowels and partial
loss Of the food. Oats and hay are
the ideal food for horses in our coun-
try, but because they arc the best is
no reason why they should be exclu-
sively used. Variety is often much
relished by the horse. With this va
riety cheapness and economy may be
introduced. Good timothy hay, early
cut and we'll cured, is the best hay
for horses. Many farmers make a
great mistake by feeding far too
much hay and not enough grain. They
might very well take a few lessons
from our liverymen who find their
horses do better and keep healthier
on a small amount of hay and a lit
tie more grain.-Joseph Ii. Yoder, in
Ohio Farmer.

Remarkable Bird Story,

A sparrow flew into one of the large
rooms at the Burlington shops at Bur-
lington, Ia. the other day, and. get
ting too near one Of the wheels, wa
sucked in. The workmen saw it and
supposed that it was instantly killed,
as the whee, was revolving at the rate
of 100 revolutions a minute. When the
machinery was. shut down at noon a
gentle chirp was heard from the wheel.
and when one of the workmen looked
the sparrow was there. still alive. 1t
had clung to the Strengthening rod in
side the wheel. and vas so dazed it could
rot fly. 1t was picked up and placed on a
table. where it recovered in a short time
and flew away. The wheel made 81 1000
revolutions while the bird was clinging
to it. and the sparrow had Travelled
more than 70 miles in that manner.-St.

Eurone Like Our AppIes.

Liverpool is coming to be we'll &C.
quainted with American apples. and
SO great has the trade there become
that it is reported that in a single
week as high as 100000 barrels of
American apples have changed hands.
The apple trade with England is
bound to follow the American trade
in meats and expand greatly. This
trade must necessarily be in the win
ter varieties, such as the Baldwin,
greening, russell, willow twig. There
is great room for expansion in the
growing of these varieties and of vari-
cites in the same category. 1t means
that some of our land that is of no
use for anything else can be made
remunerative in the production of ap-
ples.-Farmers' Review.

effect is exceedingly realistic. the wom-

which consists of two parts attached
to a wooden band. covered with hair,
that is slipped over the head. Thus it
seems as if the butt end stuck out on
one side. the point having passed
through the skull. At the same time
bladders containing blood. attached to
the band, are punctured, and the blood
flows down the woman's face. The

Hint. on winterins Cabbage,

A good cool cellar will keep them
until April with little or no loss. In
putting cabbage in the cellar for use
in early spring, I prefer to leave roots
and most of the leaves on, set as close
together as possible with roots on the
ground and heads upward. For pit
ting out of doors, select a dry place
for the pit, dig out a few inches deep
and two feet wide, az long as will be
required to hold the cabbage. In
placing in the pit put heads down,
letting roots extend upward and close
together. Cover with clean straw or
other material and then with sufi-
cient earth to prevent freezing. Open
the pit at one end when wishing to
get at the cabbage and when enough
has been taken out for present needs
close up the end with straw or other
material to prevent freezing.-W. &
Fultz, in Farm and Home.

SPRAYING
An Excellent Mixture for Apples,
Pears and PIums and How 1t L.
to Be Applied.

1 have been spraying fruit, with
more or less success, for the past IL
years. but not until the past four
years have l been able to find a mix
ture that would make a perfect spray.
In my earlier experience l used prep
%arations recommended by Tom, Dick
anu Harry" and did everything 1 was
told to do, but my fruit was almost
invariably lost. In the last four
years, however, I have had excellent
results and l attribute it aliiost en-
tirely to the efficacy of spraying. I
have had particularly good results
with apples of all varieties anu plums,
such as Wild Goose, little and large
Damson, Abundance and seeding Of
the Green Gage. These 1 have found
needed spraying particularly. For
spraying use two t~easpoonfuls of
London purple to two n one-half
gallons OF water and one gallon of
lime water, making three and one
half gallons in all. Give the trees the
first spraying before the bloom comes
out, to insure killing any insects that
have lived over winter in the bark.
The second spraying should be done
after the bloom is entirely gone. Give
also a third ard fourth application if
found necessary, but this is rarely
needed. Never vary this mixture for
plums, and, of course, as all old fruit
growers know, never spray while
bloom is on, as it browns, poi
sons or kills the pollen. For apples
use the same mixture and apply in
same season as for plums. For goose
berries and currants it is equally eff
fective. Apply only before currants
bloom and after fruit is started. For
pears the solution should be weak
ened. Use n ~teaspoonful of London
purple to two and a half gallons of
water and half a gallon of lime wa
ter. Peaches require the same mix
ture as pears. My experience has
proven nat this mixture is exactly
right in every proportion and makes
IN ideal spray. For keeping fruit
from rotting on the tree l have dis.
covered that there is nothing like
lime. Stake the lime in the ordinary
and strain so it will run
freely through the spray pump.
Spray the trees with this lime water
at any time, spraying right on the
fruit. Early in July put in a little
London purple, about a teaspoonful in
water and lime water. Use no more
London purple after the fruit begins
to arrive at fair size. For this lime
treatment 1 except Wild Goose plums,
and 1 would not use lime on any red
plums. Use the lime right through
the season till the ripening of the
fruit. Any one can certainly raise
fruit this way, and it will keep per
fectly while growing on the trees. l
have saved all of my crop this year,
while my neighbors will some of the
same varieties have lost their fruit.
Sometimes 1 air-slake lime and shake
it from a can attached to a pole right
on the ripening fruit and it perfect
ly preserves it. This year in one
clump I saved by this lime treatment
AZ large plums Ia basketful) that lay
together. 1t certainly is an excellent
mode of keeping fruit from ~rotting
on the tree.-George W. Hostler, in
Prairie Farmer.
