carefully guarded from the ears of
the general public. Mr.. and Mrs.
Pirsch are well known in the city and

Half Breeds Fighting in the Last
Ditch Hold a Sunday
Political Meeting.
A MILWAUKEE, ITAL IAN SPEAKS
Saturday Night Meeting at the Opera
House Proved to Be a Fizz1e, the
Speaker Failing to Arrive.

Fighting in the last ditch to carry
Kenosha county for the governor and
Walker M. Curtiss the Half Breeds of
the county wrote political history Sun
day afternoon when for the first time
in the history of the county the Sab
bath, which is usually given over to
rest even by politicians, was violated
and set political meeting was held
in the room back of the La Toilette
Republican headquarters. The notice
for the meeting had been sent out on
Saturday and it was arranged for the
special benefit of the Italians of the
city. Two hundred of the Italians
were present and speech was made
by Biago D'Amico, Milwaukee
Italian. The meeting was under the
direction of the La Toilette committee
and County Chairman Baker was
present during the afternoon.
The speaker did not touch on
national issues to any great extent,
but gave up most of his time trying to
convince the Italian voters that they
should support La Toilette and the
men who were pledged to carry out
his political theories. The meeting
lasted for an hour and half and it
created quite little comment among
the men who gathered on the street on
Sunday afternoon. It is safe to say
that this was the first set political
meeting ever held on Sunday in Ke-
nosha and the La Toilette men have
the honor of having set record.
Saturday Meeting Fiasco.
The Half Breed meeting which was
scheduled to take place at the opera
house on Saturday evening proved to
be f1asco. Senator r. M. Bashford, of
Madison, had been booked to makeaa
speech but short time before the
meeting Chairman Baker received
telegram stating that Mr.. Bashford
was Ill in Madison and could not be
present. The band was already pa
rading the streets and it was impossi-
BILE to call the meeting off. The State
Central La Toilette committee helped
them out of the difficulty by sending
two young men to take the place of
Bashford and one of them, Edwin J.
Gross, made short speech during the
evening. The crowd was decidedly
small one and it was not especially
appreciative. 1t was stated that the
other Milwaukee man would also
speak but when Gross had completed
his remarks it was found that his COM
panion had left the house.
d. Senator Bashford is pretty good
speaker and the crowd that had gath
cred to hear him found the speech
which they received little tame. Mr..
Gross did the best he could, however,
and told the old story in the same old
way. The crowd seemed to sympa-
thize with him and he was we'll re-
ceived.

which are fed on the farm NAV be Sc
cured. 1t was necessary to devise the
methods of carrying on these expert
ments and of tabulating and interpret
ing the results. Substantial progress
has been made and the general scheme
of studying farm management thus op-
ened up gives promise of being worthy
of use in other states.
"The problems presented are so
very difficult that to attempt to solve
them would not be profita BILE were it
not for the fact that the country can
not afford to run it's farming business
in way to produce only four billion
dollars worth of plant and animal
products annually, where the availa-
BILE soil, man labor and horse labor
should annually produce products
worth five or six billions''
1t was found that the cost of grow
ing an acre of field corn, including
cutting, shocking and shredding, was
$14.S3. The cost each acre when husk-
ing on the hill was $ll.8l.
Some of the factors used, as Is cents
an hour for man labor and ~ cents
an hour for horse labor have not been
tinanlly settled upon, hence the footings
may be changed before the facts are
finally published.
Continuing Mr.. Hays says: 1.-The
questions which these Investigations
are going to put up to every farmer
are: Am farming in the most prac-
tical way? Is my land properly laid
out in fields which provide for the
most profitable rotation? Could I not
dovetail my crops and live stock work
together so as to produce more and
with no more labor of man and
teams? Are my fields becoming richer
or poorer?
'Out of this work is growing a
method Of treating farm manag cement
more as an engineering proposition.
Every farm is a very complex problem,
but can it not be treated far more
practically and scientifcally?"

January Weather,

Prof. Hicks brings in January with
storm centers" and great extremes
of temperature. According to his
predictions the condition of the
weather will be moderate during the
fore part of the second week of the
month, the winds will shift to south
erly and the barometer will fall.
More snow from the 18th to the 10Th.
The 25th, 26th and 9th are central
days of a reactionary storm period.
Cold will relax, the barometer will
fall, cloudiness will gather in the west,
and more rain rand snow will pass
eastward over most parts of the coun-
try. Another change to much colder
will come with the closing days of the
month.

SAFE BLOWERS.
They Blow Open Leathers' Store at st
Francis and Get 800,

Francis and Get 800.
The store of II. G.. feathers was en-
tered last Tuesday night and robbed
of about 800. The safe was blown
open with nitro-glycerine and the con-
tents carried away. There was about
a hundred dollars in it. The safe was
wrecked also, so that the total loss
will amount to little over 5000.
The safe was blown open after the
most approved plan. Tallow was used
to seal the cracks and the explosive
was forced in and ignited by means
of fuse.
The explosion caused by this means
was not loud. People sleeping within
a hundred feet of the store did not
hear it. The thieves made away with
their booty without attracting any at
tention whatever and apparently with
out leaving any clue as to their iden-
tity.
The same evening the safe was blown
open in the saloon at Bethel station
but nothing of value was taken. The
job seemed to be the work of thieves
familiar with the blowing open of safes
as it was very thoroughly done. g..
There is little hope of catching the
culprits as neither theft was discovered
until Wednesday morning.-Anoka
Herald.

"A Good New Years Sentiment.

These sentiments by Frank Nye OF
Minneapolis may contain considera-
BILE pessimism, but who shall say that
they do not contain much that is true:
''We as a nation have been too i'm
mensely wealthy and too immensely
crazy after the almighty dollar The
Almighty may soon say to us as a
nation what he said to the foolish man
who tore down his granaries and built
larger, Thou fool, this night thy soul
shall be required of thee The time
must come when we shall get back to
the humble ways of our fathers. Our
power is not in wealth, in the dust of
the earth, but in the moral and men
tai strength of the nation. Talk about
the ballot box saving the nation, the
thing that will save the nation lies
back of the ballot box, in the home.
There lies the future of the country,
as the home is so will the future be. -

THE SCIENCE OF FARMING.

Some Results of Recent Investigations in
Methods.
The results for 1902 of the statistical
Investigations at Mortified, Marshall
and Halstad, which are being carried
on by the State experiment station and
the statistical bureau of the Uuited
States department of agriculture, are
being summarized. These investiga-
tions were undertaken to secure facts
for the use of all farmers of the State
as to the cost, returns and profits of
each line of business on the farm.
Superintendent w. M. Hays says:
"We did not half appreciate in the
start the many ways in which farmers
and teachers of agriculture could use
the facts. The first year the route
man at each of the three places visited
daily about fifteen farms, this year
twelve, and the number will be further
reduced in 1904. One reason for using
a smaller number of farmers is that it
is found necessary to take up the col
lection of statistics as to the cost of
producing live stock products, in part
chat the values of those field crops

out each year. The number of years
for which each is elected shall be in

There was no opposition to John

a clean-cut, thorough-going citizen, a
man of good judgment, and who is
very popular, and that he will make a
good president goes without saying.
Mr.. Bryson has made a very credit
able record as president of the council.

Cause of LockjaW.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by ba-
cillus or germ which exists plentifully in
81. eet dirt. 1t is inactive SO long as ex-
posed to the air, but when carried be-
meath the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and
when the air is excluded the germ is
reused. to activity and produces the most
virulent poison known. These germs
may be destroyed and all danger of lock-
jaw avoided by applying Cham berlain's
