Recruiting.

It is 4 significant fact that there is
no lack of recruits for service in the
regiments serving in the Philippines,
where there is always possibility OF a
fight, especially in the southern ISL
ands, where the Moro is giving the
Army considerable trouble. Men will
apply for such service when they will
not consider Il tour of duty in the
States. This certainly shows that the
spirit of adventure is not perceptibly
on the decline. The troops in the ISL
andS are always maintained at their
full strength, sometimes above that
number. The applications for transfer
from home regiments to regiments
bound for the islands more than fill
the vacancies in the Philippine regi-
ments. a large percentage Of the men
ordered home requesting transfers to
regiments remaining there. The lack
Of recruits is confined to regiments re-
naming in the United States. The ne
gro regiments, the Ninth and Tenth
Cavalry. and the Twenty-fourth and
Twenty fifth Infantry, are an excep-
ton. AS rule men who enlist for
these organizations do it again and
again until the retirement age is
reached, with the result that these four
organizations have much greater per-
centage of old soldiers than any others
in the service. and vacancies are us
ually at premium. AS a result these
regiments are among the best in the
service-Army and Navy Journal.

With basket and with pail equipped,
Clear-eyed, tan-cheeked and berry-lipped,
Athwart the pastures, down the road,
They trudged to learning's poor abode;
The bare brown feet that knew no law
Of fashions last; the bundled forms
That laughed aloud at cold and storms.
What tales the Scared desks might relate
Of triumphs gained with book and slate!
What lore the clapboards loose possess
Of feats at noontime and recess!
And doomed how oft the panes to see,
Back up the road, and Ger the lea,
Haste boy and girl, new worlds to find,

Leonard Starks Of Plaintield, Wis,
probably is the largest dealer in po-
tatoes in the world, His operations
cover 2il towns on all the railroads

computed that 100000 acres of light,
sandy soil is devoted to potatoes.
The marketing of 100000 bushels
forms considerable item of indus
try, giving employment TO great
number of buyers, spectators, work
men aud freight handlers. Far more
care is taken Of the potato than Of
almost any other vegetable on the
market. Somewhere about 5000 cars
are in constant service by this one
firm, and capacity is provided for
5000 car loads more. The preserva-
ton of the first value from the farm
to the customer is the great problem.
At present the preparation of car
for the safe transportation OF pota-
toes in winter is occupying MIR.

1900, and twenty years later silk hats
with felt bodies were introduced into
England.
About 1910 the French silk nat was
placed on the market and at once
adopted in the familiar chimney pot"
shape. There were several varieties
of it, such rs the Wellil gton hat, with
the yeoman crown; the Anslesea nat,
bell shaped at the top, and the D'Orsay
hat, with ribbed silk binding ana big

The color also varied. Thus the
Earl OF Harrington started a craze for

THE Menasha Record and the Fond

the time for collection OF taxes from
the middle of winter to the middle
OF summer, because at present the
taxes have to Do paid when the ma
jority Of people are least prepared to
do it. |. used to be considered that
midwinter was the bess time for
the farmers, because that is hog
killing time. The porkers were
looked upon as the means for liqui-
dating this debt to the government.
Now that the state has gone so much
into dnirying, large portion of tho
farmers income is received in the

OF course everybody but fool
knows that the object Of the provi-
sion Of the bill introduced in Con
gress at the instance of the South
western Lumbermen's association,
providing IA penalty of $40 per day
for failure to provide cars on de-
mand OF shippers, after the lapse OF

roads from discriminating in favor
of some shippers at the expense of
others That this has been done in
more cases than can be numbered Is
known to all men except the fool al
ready referred to. 1t has been the
custom in the coal regions, and In the
oil trade, and In the carrying of
grain, for certain roads to hold back
their cars and to delay deliveries. 1t
is an old trick to have ears "lost" and

Vindicsfion Seems Necessary.

Mr.. J. A. Stone, OF Reedsburg, Sank
county, in his letter acquiescing to
the cal Of republicans OF his county
to stand as candidate for the nomi-
nation Of Congressman for this dis
trict, makes the following broad as
sertion relative to the present incum-
bent:
GAS assemblyman from Juneau
county, he worked actively for,
and secured the passage Of, a bill
reducing the price of 44,782 acres
OF state lands in Juneau and
Adams counties, claiming that it
was in the interest Of poor set
tiers who wished to purchase the
land. Within twenty days after
the passage Of the bill, these
lands were patented to James l..
Gates, and were held by him for
corporation thereafter formed,
of which Mr.. Babcock was
principal stakeholder. And these
lands were afterwards sold by
said company at profit ranging
from cooper cent 70 1900 per cent"
This Is somewhat startling in its
effect upon the people in this end of
the district, and, If Incorrect, pro-
per vindication seems to be that
which is most in order.
