Northern Wisconsin Development.

Northern Wisconsin Development.
That rapidly developing terri
tory which occupies the northern
half Of Wisconsin is not new
enough to cause the hardships
and vicissitudes Of frontier life,
and not old enough to keep
away the intending settler on ae
count sof exorbitant land prices
1t is in that stage of partial de-
velopment which gives greater
opportunity to bring it to the
highest point of perfection and
prosperity. Schools, goodroads
and other improvements are 60
ing in. All that is needed, is
a small capital. Drawn and
brain, supplemented by push and
energy will do. the rest. The
iron ore, mari. kaolin and clay
beds, the timber and the rich soil
give equal opportunity to the
settler and the manufacturer.
Land is cheap and can be pur-
chased. Oh easy terms.
THE WISCONSIN CENTRAL R'Y.
offers facilities for the quick and
cheap transportation of it's pro-
ducts and as the line penetrates
the very center Of this vast north
ern territory, choice of location
is not confined to any one par
ticular locality.

tiful and rich country can be OBJ
tanned by addressing,

Several years ago members or the
Geological Survey suggested that in
former times the Tennessee River, in
stead of Joining the Ohio, as at pres
ent flowed into the Gulf Of Mexico
through the channels of the Coosa and
Alabama Rivers. This conclusion has
recently been corroborated In a singu-
lar manner by Mr.. Charles T. Simp-
son, Of the Smithsonian Institution.
The original suggestion was based on
the appearances of the land, but Mr.
Simpsons confirmation depends upon
the distribution of particular form
Of fresh-water mussel which. although
1t is peculiar to the Tennessee River,
Is also found in the Coosa and Ala
bama. AS these creatures cannot ira
verse the land, the inference is that
formerly the waters of the Tennessee
flowed southwark into the streams
above named.

American enterprise in Great Brit
ain now promises to revolutionize the
methods of the war Office. The prob
lem of the transportation of stores,
guns and men over country having
no railroads has long excited the army
experts. Traction engines, bullocks,
elephants, horses and mules have been
tried with only moderate success.
With the view of displacing these a
series of experiments is occurring in
England, before war office commits
sion, in which an American motor car,
suitable for war service, having on
board the driver, an American, and
the inventor, attained a speed of 80
miles an hour on grass, going over OBJ
stacles and fluctuations without the
slightest difficulty or injury. Further
trials are still necessary, but the
British officers were favorably i'm
pressed with the performance of the
motor car, and are likely to recon-
mend its adoption by tho war efice.
