PROFITABLE VISITING.
Every Farmer Can Learn Something

A few years ago the writer hereof
fell in with a party of skilled work.
men whose employers had formed
trust. The workmen from each fac
tory were being sent to all other
factories in the combination in or
der to study the methods of their
former competitors, and according
to their accounts they were being
much benefited by this opportunity
for observation and inquiry. AS the
factories were widely scattered the
cost of all this must have been con-
siderahle-but evidently the employ.
ers thought it the right way for the
men to learn. And it is the righ,
way. More can be learned by oh
servation than by any other way
short of experience. Try to tell
somebody about the characteristics
of the different breeds of cattle. for
instance, and then take him to n
state fair and show him. Both par
ties will have higher appreciation
of the value of observation after such
an experience. Every man can learn

II he will. This includes farmers, and
they whose work is so largely visible
can learn great deal by observation.
There are farmers whose methods
have been very successful. Their
places should be visited whenever an
opportunity occurs and their meth
DDS studied. The experiment farms
have lessons also for their visitors
who want to learn them. We have
known progressive young farmers to
spend a great deal of time and money
inspecting the farms of noted farm
ers and breeders and have yet to
hear of one regretting 1t. They got
more than their moneys worth but
they went for purpose and in the
right spirit. They didn't say of every
new thing; "Well, that won't do for
us, though it may be all right here,
or at can't be done by the ordinary
farmer" etc. Go visiting, go with a
purpose, and leave all prejudices at

ed it is properly constructed; and .
proper construction is shown in the
accompanying illustration, two braces
being used, both of which hold the
outer end of the gate exactly where it
should be.
Another mistake with farm gates is
that they are too frequently made of
material not heavy enough to be
strongly pinned at the ends of the
bars. Secure pinning is always neces-
sary in order to give the braces a
chance to do their work thoroughly

TO BE PROSECUTED.

District Atty Fred. Genrich has COM
menced action against the Wausau Ex-
celsior Co. to recover $500 which be-
longs to the county school fund as a
fine provided by state law for a viola
ton OF incorporation laws. The law
reads that a foreign corporation doing
business in the state of Wisconsin must
file with the secretary of state its char
ter or certification of incorporation.
A penalty of $500 is fixed for the first
offense and 81, 900 for the second. This
money is to be paid into the school
fund of the county where the corpora
compromise in the matter. 1t is al
legged that the Wausau Excelsior Co, is
foreign corporation, its stockholders
being composed of men residing in
Chicago The company has never
complied with the law in this regard
and thus action was begun.
There are numerous instances of this
kind in Wisconsin and few more in
this county that will soon find them
selves in the same boat with above
mentioned company. 1t was but few
days ago that large concern doing
business here complied with the law in
this regard, that has been carrying on
business here for years, and yet was
foreign and had not filed the necessary
papers. There are many Chicago lum-
ber firms that do business in this state
that do not pay cent of taxes, but
have their stocks all shipped out at the
time of assessment.

INJURED FATALLY,

Wednesday afternoon team of
horses belonging to the A. Kickbusch
Grocery Co, while standing near the
st. Paul depot, became frightened and
ran away. In the course of their flight
they ran over child-the little daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Kerr, 724

WIS picked up it was plainly manifest
that its injuries were fatal The father,
who is an engineer on the St. Paul
road, had that morning started out with
his engine on the south run. He was
telegraphed for and returned home but
did not again see his child in life, for

NOT REVOKED.

The case of Ernst Pagel, west side
saloon keeper, who, it was charged by
members of Cutler Post, G. A. r., had
publicly expressed his satifaction at the
shooting of president Mckinley and
that if he died he would set up barrel
of beer, etc, petition was signed by
members of the Post, and presented to
the council at its first meeting in October
There was also presented to the council
at that meeting complaint accusing
Pagal of keeping a disorderly place,
The council liked upon Wednesday
evening, October 10th, as time for
hearing the case. On that evening the
! council chamber was comfortably filed
with lawyers, witnesses and spectators.
Otto Kruger, was attorney for Pagal
and city attorney, H. H. Manson, M.
A. Hurley and G. H. Mueller were pres
ent to conduct the prosecution.
The taking of testimony was the first
in order, and Frank Omhoff swore that
he was in Pagels saloon after the shoot
of Mckinley; that Pagel said he would
treat when the president was dead, re-
ferring to him as dog and murderer"
Ernst Preuss swore that he was in
Pageps place on the same evening, and
heard Pagel say that he would set up
the drinks when Mckinley was dead,
also heard Pagel refer to Mckinley as
dog and a murderer.
August Marquardt, sheriff, said that
he had heard reports against Pagel and
went over to investigate as there We're
threats being made He asked Pagel
if he had said that he would set up a
barrel of beer in the event of McKin-
leys's death This he denied but had
treated in friendly manner. Mr..
Marquardt advised Pagel to leave the
city and he did so, going to Stevens
Point.
Ernst Pagel testified that he was Il
saloon keeper and had been for II years.
He had heard the testimony and denied
it all, as to statements referring to what

beer in the event of president McKin

dent dog and murderer" On the
contrary he had expressed sorrow at
the shooting and death of president Me
Kinley. He claimed to be socialist,
and not an anarchist.
r Jones, August Pagel, Charles Loe
del, Martin Fogarty and others testified
in favor of s2agel, as to being pres
ent on the evenings when it was said
that Pagel had made the statements
claimed by the witnesses.

FARMERS VS.. COMPANY.

A number of farmers living in the
vicinity of Mosinee last week appeared
in court at that village againss the
Wausau Excelsior CO., of this city, but
later the trial was transferred to Wau-
sau, where it took place in circuit court
before referee, H. Wippermar, of
Grand Rapids The suit was inaugur-
ated by the farmers to recover about
81, 800 that they claim is due them
through "a sale of basswo ood bolts to the
agent of the company, David Sullivan.
The company claimed that Sullivan
was not its agent, but had merely
bought bolts on commission, yet it was
admitted that during the early winter
of last season the orders drawn by Sui
livan on the firm were duly honored
but laterwhen the price of bolts fell
below that for which Sullivan had con-
tracted for, his orders were ingnored.
1t was then that the trouble arose.
The excelsior company published no.
tices in the papers to the effect that
Sullivan did not act as its agent, while
the latter most emphatically denied
this statement. In the suit, which end
ed Saturday. the farmers were repre-
sented by Park & Lamoeaux, OF Stew

employed Bump, Marchetti d Bump, of

MORE HoNORS.

Emil Breitkreutz, of this city, won
two events in the Sophomore Freshmen
athletic meet at Madison last Thursday
These were the mile dash and two mile
run, making the former in 5:22, the lat

has the following to say in regard to
Breitkreutz;
"Of all the men, both sophmores
and fresmen, Breitkreutz sfood out the
most prominent of them all He won
the mile hands down and took the two

of the gamest fights seen on Camp

men watched each other closely

The OLDEST CLUB.

At the meeting of the Federation of
Women's Clubs, held in Madison last
week, nits Harry Howe Shelton, vice
president of the Ninth District, had the
following to say of the work done in
our city by the Ladies' Literary Club;
Wausau-The Ladies' Literary club
is the oldest club in the district. Its
department work has been very salts
factory, aud theopen meeting sGnusual-
ly interesting. The object and aim of
the club is to build public library. 1t
has sixteen travelling libraries in cireula-
tion and six more ready to send out.
The club women of the Ninth district
believe that the steady growth of
womens cluos in numbers, membership
and influence demonstrates that such
clubs fill place in the educational
economy of the times.
