GOOD Words for Northern Wisconsin
~; noi

(Des Moines Daily News
So many people are moving this
spring and the wonder is, where are
they going? To the North, will be
! the answer of hundreds of queries
piled to the moving thousands.
They are seeking shomes where. the
land is cheap, taxes low, climate
healthy and money can be made
easily. Railroad agents are sending
people everywhere in the north.
They have special rates for tourists
and home seekers and the immense
travel shows that people are taking
adyan tage of the occasion.
Nowhere can q man with little
money do as much as he can in North
I ern Wisconsin. Land is cheap; he
has fine home market at highest
market prices for all he can raise;
his fuel can be had simply by the
use Of the axe, everything or the
land in the way of cordwood, ties,
posts or logs, brings cash, and in ad
dition, the various industries incid-
ent to the pine and hardwood forests
furnish him steady work through the
winter at remunerative wages.
Sheep men are looking toward north
.ern Wisconsin as a region where a
fine quality Of both wool and mutton
can be successfully produced.
Several carloads of sheep, from Mon
lana and other western states have
been placed on ranches here, and
sheep raising has become one of the
permanent industries. The winter
feeding season and the summer graz
ing season are practically the same
as northern Illinois, and the food
required for sheep is much more
cheaply grown on this land.
Before giving write-up on any
new locality, we always send an ex-
perienced man to these sections, so
the information collected and pre-
sented through this paper, to the
public, is unbiased by local Interests.
We sect a reporter to North Dakota,
during the land movement in that
state, and to South Dakota, Mime
sofa, Missouri and Canada while the
movements were on in these localities
and now we come to northern Wis
consin.
Our reporter has returned from
that locality, and bis report of the
same is well worth looking into by
those who are seeking improved or
unimproved lands, from which to
make a home Nature has indeed
been lavish ia the distribution of
erresoOrces throughout this local
ity Climate, timber, soil, water,
cheap portation, aud convenient
market-all are here, and everything
combines to make it an ideal place
for diversified farming.

..Ol6 Abe'' the War Eagle, Martyr
TO the Republic.

ssS1lSa ADS wa
TO the Republic.
It is a common thing for sold
iers to make pet animals their
companions when they go to war.
In the Crimean campaign many
of the Russians carried cats IN
their knapsacks. In the Ameri-
can civil war Minnesota regl-
ment bore into many engage
ments half-grown bear, which
was subsequently, returned to
Minnesota in good condition.
The Forty-ninth Illinois carried
two game cocks. The One
Hundred and Second Pennsyl-
vania had a large black and
white dog, named Jack, which
smelt powder in twenty battles
and was wounded at Malvern
Hill, captured at Salem Heights
and imprisoned with most Of his
regiment at Belle Island. The
Twelfth Wisconsin Battery was
accompanied by raccoon, and
several other Wisconsin regi.
ments had badgers. But the
most famous of all the animal
pets which shared the hardships
OF Union soldiers during the
Civil war was the American
eagle Old Abe. carried by the
Eighta Wisconsin Volunteers.
The fame of the eagle was re
Geeted upon his bearers, who
came TO be known as the Eagle
regiment. In the military his
uogy Of the world there was
never another dumb creature
which gained celebrity equal to
that Of this Wisconsin bird. He
was recognized as the emblem of
ne Republic He was loved for
the personal traits which he ex-
h5hitad on the march, in the
camp, and in battle.
Old Abe was young when he
w ea ptured In the summer Of
1851 by Indians of the Lake
Blam bean tribe He was pur-
Chased. at Eau Claire by the
volunteers Of the Eighth Wiscon-
sin He was in SO battles and
akirmishes, beginning with that
at Freaericktown, Md, Oct. y,
1851. and ending with that of
Hurricane Creek, La, August
13, 1864. Among the list were
Sic ENGAGEMENTS attending the
aa5 upon Vicksburg, May Y,
and fits surrender on the
loar tB Of July in the same year.
Cn@ae 22ud of September, 1864,
Old Abe became the property OF
the state Of Wisconsin, being ac-I
cepted by Gov. Lewis on behalf
Of the Commonwealth from Capt.
Victor Wolf, the Eagle Regiment
having served the three years for
which It's members had enlisted,
and been mustered out.
Old Abe's career did not end
with that. He was a notable
figure at the Northwest Sanitary
Commission Fair in Chicago, and
at the Soldiers Home Fair in
Milwaukee, in 1865. The sale Of
his pictures at both of these fairs
realized a great deal of money,
which was used for the benefit
of.the soldiers. In 1876Old Abe
was a conspicuous figure at the
Centennial Exposition. Some
times eagles live to a hundred
years. IF Old Abe died when he
was q little beyond twenty years
Of age. the fact may be attributed
to the strenuous character of the
life which he led, as well as to the
face fhat his myriad friends fed
him with a greatdeal Of stuff that

TO DETAIN FOOD IMPORTS.
Goods Arriving from Germany,
France and Italy to he EXAM
ined for Adulterations

Several cargOes OF food products
have arrived at eastern ports from Ger
many France and Italy, suspected of
being in violation of the new pure food
act which went into effect July /. and
the collectors of customs at the ports of
arrival are requested to hold the ship
ments until a chemical analysis can he
made to ascertain whether all or any
part of these cargOes can be admitted.
This is the substance of letter re-
ceived by the secretary of the treasury
from the department of agriculture,
and is the first step toward test Of the
new law. DIR. Wiley, chief of The chem
istry division Of the agricultural de-
partment, has been engaged for months
in making a careful analysis of all food
products imported. He has carefully as
certained and noted the COMPONENT
parts of all commodities imported, and
has prepared what may be termed the
blacklist. Upon this list is a complete
record OF all commodities found dele
terious to health. all that are forbidden
to be sold in the country where pro-
duced, all which are restricted in sale in
the countries in which made or from
which exported, and all which are false
ly labeled either in respect to place of
manufacture or contents. These classes
of goods under the new law may be ex-
cluded.
The suspected commodities men
toned in the letter from Secretary Will
son include canned goods, sausages,
wines and liquors. olive oil and other
food products. Instructions have been
issued by the secretary of the treasury
TO the respective collectors of customs
who have jurisdiction over the car
goes" to detain them. The collectors
will be required to forward at once to
the secretary of agriculture samples of
the goods The "cargoes" that have
been held are upon the agricultural de-
partment's blacklist. and Secretary Will
son, from the advices received from
sources abroad, has reason to believe
the entries must be excluded
The new law is in large measure re-
taliatory, the result of foreign discrim-
ination against American food products.
and will be enforced by Secretary Will
son without regard to the protests it
may bring forth from European govern
mentS.
