OF INTEREST TO NURSERYMEN.

Nurserymen, as well as the growers
of plants, are interested in all efforts
looking to preventing the introduction
of pernicious insects and plant diseases.
Chapter 1870 of the laws of 1899, makes
it imperative for our Experiment Sta
ton to inspect all nurseries and ascer-
tain by personal study, whether or not
the plants they contain are infected
with insect and fungus pests. This
work is in charge of Prof. f. P. Sand
stem, Horticulturist. Mr.. Sandsten
has secured the services of Mr.. Christ
ian Bues of New York, al expert in
these matters. All nurserymen wish
ing their premises inspected should
send application at once to Prof. +. +.
Sandsten, Agricultural Experiment
Station, Madison, Wis, in order that
Mr.. Bues may visit their premises while
he is in the state.

ANOTHER CUT IN SHINGLES.
A JOKE ON TOM.

T. IL. Ryan went down to Wausau
Wednesday evening, as he frequently
does. 1t so happened that certain
young lady who had been spending
several months in the city departed
that evening also. The two had not
met until they were introduced at the
depot Several people were at the
depot who were well acquainted with
both parties, and in the conversation
it was suggested that things looked
suspicious, and a sack of rice wonid
give the suspicious an appearance OF
genuineness. One of the party slipped
away and shortly returned with the
rice. 1t is needless TO say that it was
used vigorously when the train arrived
To the amusement of the bystanders,
but we won't attempt to describe the
feelings of the principals.
Anyway, it viii be all right to con-
graduate Tom on the graceful mauner
in which he accepted the joke, if moth

Immediately sent out to surrounding
towns a description of two strangers
seen lettering about the village the day
of the robbery, and also list of the
articles stolen. Tuesday evening word
came from Babcock that two men were
there who answered the description,
who appeared to be supplied with an
abundance of nickels. razors and knives
and had passed some trade dollars. The
sheriff went to Babcock that same even
ing and brought the two fellows back
to Wausau nextmorning. At the time of
their arrest they hada number of new
knives and razors on their persons. One
gave the name James Clark and claims
Portage as his home, the other calls
himself Ed. Graves and says Eau Claire
is his place of residence, though when
questioned regarding these towns
neither knew anything about them.
They are about as tough looking char
acter as one will meet in a life time, and
if they are not criminals then their looks
deceive them. The sheriff has photo
graphed them and taken their Bertil-

and record of measurements being sent
to prisons of surrounding states and de-
tective agencies, in the expectation that
the men may be identified as ones with
