woman near the heart, and she died
in a few minutes. Her only words
after the accident were TO her 3 wear

GRAND WISCONSIN.
A Development that has Really Been
" ondersul.

Time was when the state consisted
of strap of forming land and few
lead mines in the south and n great
pineries in the north. Look ut what
it is now in the north. The growth
up there has exceeded anything ever
before seen in the forest state and the
farm are thick and wealthy where a
few years ago the were sold by lum-
bermen as worthless cutOvers. The
products of the state have grown in
amount and diversity and the lands
have filled up with the best classes of
native Americans and foreigners. We
read of the great rusher to the west
ern states, but in Wisconsin we have
within the past few years located
thousands of those praries states farm
ers who have come back to where there
Is no drought, no floods and no pow
erty. Many complaints have been
made OF the railroads and their WAYS
OF treating the people. But Wiscon in
has added more to her industries OF
almost every kind than any other state
Just recently the officials figures of
the Iowa agricultural board showed a
falling of in dairy products for that
state, while those those of Wisconsin
show an increase. Does not this tell
something, especially when We see
that other industries of all kinds tell
a like tale? These are but few brief
ly stated facts, but remember them
and be proud you are Badgers. Men
