About two dozen boys, in charge of
John +. Lamont and w r. Chellis,
drove out this morning at 700 O'Clock
to the Naeff farm, five miles west of the
city, on which is located the expert
mental sugar beet patch of the Wausau
Mems club. The boys are engaged in
thinning out the beets, which have been
blocked six inches apart. They will be
paid 25c each for their work and will
be given plentiful supply of lemonade,
wiener wurst and Mary AIMS, and the
work will be made as much in the ma
ture of a picnic or day of sport as posi-
BILE. Continuous rows of beets are
planted over about thirty acres. The
blocking process consists of running a
hoe through these rows so as to leave
bunches of plants every six inches apart,
and the boys select one large healthy
plant in the bunch and weed out the
rest. 1t was originally intended to
have the boys on the farm two days in
succession, but on account of the carni-
val coming. with its attendant excite
ment, week will elapse before they are
taken out again.
The last issue of the Marshfield Times
tells of number of victims of the sneak
thief, short change CRATER and pick
pocket, all of whom event up against
it, at the time the Wallace circus
showed there a week ago Two fellows
hired a rig and drove about town work
ing the short change game of whom the
Times says: 1.-The men claimed to be
on their way to Wausau to attend the
Eagles convention, but were most
likely connected with a gang following
the Wallace circus" 1t is altogether
quite likely that some of the pickpockets
found their way into Wausau that day
for there were two robberies, both at
the Northwestern. depot. Frank Win
ninger, Sr, in a letter to a friend in
this city tells of his experience that day.
He was on his way TO Sheboygan to
join the Winninger CO., and after pur
chasing his ticket in this city, the
money for which he took from long
pocket book, he thrust the wallet back
into his inside vest pocket. A few
buttons at the top of the vest were left
unbuttoned, leaving the pocket book
protrudirg. 1t caught the eve of
light fingered individual, and Some
time later Mr.. Winninger disca-tred
that he was short pocket book and
about $50.
