Besides the amount of butter credited
to the creameries there was 4, lS2, 74S
pounds of butter made on the farms,
valued at Sl9, ,617.20. A greater part of
Marathon's dairy products ares con-
sumed at home, the creameries lying
adjacent to the city especially, always
finding ready market for butter. The
grade of cheese produced might have
its edible qualities greatly improved,
without impairing its commercial value.
The creamery butter, however, is of a
high standard and usually brings as
high prices on the market as does the
Elgin product, noted the world over.
The farmers are yearly paying more
and more attention to dairying, for
they find it profitable. Northern Wis
consin is especially adapted to cheese
and butter making on account of its
temperate summer climate, the cool
waters everywhere, and abundance of
nutritious grasses and clovers that
grow luxurious where ere you go. The
demand for cheese is growing greater
each year. Twenty years ago upwards
of Sl0,00O,000 worth of cheese was
shipped out of the United States an
nually, but has now fallen below 50, ,000,-
900. Increase in home consumption is
attributed as the greatest cause for this.
Some years ago great many dairy
men of this country resorted to decep-
ton, making product of skim milk
and lard, which they palmed off on
Europeans with the result that large
part of our trade was diverted to Can
ada, which country now exports $25,.
000, 900 worth of cheese annually.

DAIRY PRODUCTS.

In making out his annual report TO
the secretary OF state of the creameries
and cheese factories doing business in
this county the county clerk has sub
mitted the figures given below. These
figures are only correct so far as they
go In getting up the report the clerk
mailed blank form to each of the own
ers of these institutions and some did
not give all the desired information and
some did not answer at all, but the re-
suits are near enough to get an idea of
the volume of dairy business done in
the county.

PASTeURlZED MILK.

L. K. Wright has spent some time in
the past two weeks in visiting the sani-
tary milk plants of Milwaukee, James
vile and Madison, and in a short
visit others. His object is to de-
termine the best methods for con-
ducting such plant and the machinery
and capital required and eventually
establishing such plant in Wausau.
1t is quite likely that within very
short time company with ample eapi-
tai will be organized to carry out Mr..
Wright's plans, quite number OF our
business men and farmers of means be-
ing interested in the movement, but as
yet no definite plans have been settled
upon. 1t has been determined, how
ever, that the plant shall be situated in
the city, That its products may be of
easy access to market. and that milk
routes will be established leading out of
the city in every direction.
Sucn plants are in operation in "a
great many states and the time is ap-
preaching when none other than Pas
teurized milk will be used. Scientists
assert that milk, in its natural state,
while being one of the most useful of
food supplies, is also one of the best
disease breeding agencies known, but
under the treatment of the Pastenr
method it becomes absolutely harmless.
Milk thus treated or butter made of
such milk will keep sweet for months,
while all bacteria, bacilli and disease
creating germs are destroyed. 1t is
especially healthful to nursing infants.
for it is well known fact that thou
sands of infants die each year whose
death has been traced to the use of i'm
pure milk. The dry air of stable
which is productive of germ life, un-
clean methods in milking, the condition
of the COW, unclean milk cans and al
lowing milk to stand in open vessels all
assist germ life and are dangerous
Thus it is seen that the sterilizing pro-
cess used in treating milk in one of
these plants is of the utmost Importance
to health.
At the Wausau factory, which will be
established perhaps before many weeks,
Pasteurized cream, milk, butter and ice
cream will be sold, and there is no
doubt but that the products will find
ready demand. Besides being benefit
to the health of the community, the
farmers will be benefited for they will
be paid cash for their milk and be saved
the trouble of transportation and the
dairy interests of surrounding towns
will be stimulated

THE POTATO CROP.

The potato crop this year will be
smaller than that of a year ago; but,
if the October estimate of the govern
ment department of agriculture turns
out correct, there will be nothing ap-
preaching a potato famine in the
United States-on the contrary, the
1903 crop of potatoes is above the aver
age of the past ten years. The average
annual production for ten years past
has been 731, while the departments
October estimate for this year is 74.6.
This is equivalent to saying that the
whole crop of the country will amount
to 240, 1000, 900 bushels. Here is an esti-
mate by sections, the figures being COM
pared with the actual yield for 1902:

bestowed upon him, and was splendid
example of powerfrl and worthy
ruler. But alas, as the speaker said,
human weakness can only ascend so
far, then che wings give out and down
it comes to the dust from which it
originated. As the years advanced,
Haroun's life became more and
more corrupt, less and less noble.
One night, short time before
his death, he had a strange dream !:
He saw hand and arm extended to-
ward him, and in that hand was clasped
portion of the dust of the earth. A
deep voice said, "Haroun AL Raschid,
this is the soil in which you soon shall
lie." From that time until his last
moments on earth he was haunted by
the appalling vision. The picture of
the scene at his deathbed, where his
most hated enemy, recently captured
in battle, had been led, reveals the un-
forgiving, bitter spirit of Haroun. An
official who stood near asked him to
pronounce sentence upon the prisoner.
For moment his better nature seemed
to sway him, but the tide of revengeful
feeling swept all kinder impulses away.
Raising his eyes and fixing them on the
face of the captive, he muttered: Il
have strength left but for two words" )"
and after solemn silence he Kissed
fol tn Kill him % With this SEN
tence Ha roun Al Raschid fell into the
arms of the conqueror of the mightiest
as we'll as of the weakest Death.
In the Arabian Nights Entertain
ments," this Caliph figures in some of
the wonderful stories of adventure and
achievement Indeed so interviewer is
his name with fiction that many are
led to the belief that such a person new
er existed. But enough has been
learned from authentic history to prove
that Haroun AL Raschid really once
lived, and was a mighty leader and
ruler of his people.
This opportunity of hearing anything
ut once entertaining and instructive is
so rare that every one who possibly
could should take advantage of it, and

WAUSAU HIGH SCHOOL VS.. GRAND
RAPIDS HIGH SCHOOL.

The High school foot ball team of our
city defeated the High school team of
Grand Rapids on last Saturday by a
score of to 0. The score does not
fully represent the merits of the two
teams. Throughout the whole game
Wausau gained far more consistently
than did Grand Rapids. Our team was
slightly heavier than our opponents,
but this fact alone does not explain
why they were victorious. The team
got off with dash and vim that told
when it came to gains. For our side
the brilliant work of our backs, COM
posed of Capt. Miller, Perry Wilson and
Geo. Silverthorn added materially to
the strength of the team. AS spec
tator, one could hardly control himself
when he saw the pllnges and end runs
of these men.
On the other hand the splendid work
of the Grand Rapids team cannot be
overlooked. They deserve credit for
holding down the Wausau team so well.
This game closed the season for the
High school team of our city. Begin
ming with defeating the Alumni they
have tied or won every game. The fol-
