desired objects, but the farm should
not be devoted to cereal crops only. 1t
is a frequent occurrence for farmers
near large cities to make large pro-
fits. but they do so by compelling the
land to produce to its fullest capacity
of those crops that bring the best prices
and in these days of superior transport
tation facilities distance from market

instead of miles, and the farmer at
distance has opportunities which he
should use to his advantage.

COUNCIL MEETING.

A regular meeting of the city council
was held last Tuesday evening and
| among other things the following mat
ters were considered:
The mayor announced the appoint
ment of John Ringle as alderman of
the First ward vice Wm. Hussong, re-
signed. The appointment was con-
firmed.
Mary E. Williams handed in her usual
petition which this time asked for the
cancellation of her watertax. Referred
to committee on poor.
Upon petition of the United States
Leather Co. it was ordered that water
mains be extended to the company's s
tannery that better fire protection
might be afforded, the work of extern
sion being limited to 275 feet.
City Attorney Rosenberg asked for
Instructions in regard to the suit lately
decided in circuit court against the
city, brought by M. Kavanaugh to re-
cover $10O on a horse deal After as
cers.-sning the cost of the case up to
the present time to be about 5000 it was
moved that the city attorney be in
structed to take an appeal. The motion
was carried.
Tie clerk was instructed to cancel
the assessment on the old Wilson prop
erty at the corner of Fourth and Scott
streets, the property now belonging to
the government and being non-taxable.
The appointment of Ed. Baerwald as
policeman in place of Anton Anderson,
resigned, was confirmed.
VIM Friedrich presented a claim
against the city for $1,000 as damages
for the death of his boy who was killed
during the summer by sewer cave-in.
The claim was referred to the COM
mittee on judiciary.
The same committee recommended
that the claim of Chas. Kessner for
So, 900 as damages for personal injuries
sustained by falling from bicycle into
a torn up gutter, be disallowed. 1t is
understood that Kessner will bring suit
for the recovery of the claim.
The special assessment for the macad
amizing of Jefferson, Second. Franklin
and Washington streets was ordered to
be gwen to the treasurer for collection.
No action was taken on the bridge
question, it being held over to the next
regular meeting.
The street commissioner was en-
ployed for another month.
On account of the coalition % the
treasury only bills for labor were al
lowed at this meeting

and other edibles were served in IKE
proportion. Indeed the table set for
these unfortunates is as good as is
served by the average hotel, and excel
ling in wholesomeness. The rooms are
airy and well ventilated and on the
whole the sanitary conditions are first
class. The cost of maintenance has
been gradually reduced to 50 15 per
capita weekly, and all things consid-
e. ed it is doubtful if another such in
stitution in the state can make such a
favorable showing. The building of
this institution was good investment
for Marathon county, for instead of
paying out thousands of dollars yearly
for the support of our insane in other
institutions we are now drawing upon
other counties to pay part of the run
ming expenses of our asylum, as will be
seen from the table of earnings, and in
addition the state makes an annual pay
ment of a>snug sum.
