prownlpp Of vernon CountY Boy.

The Elroy Tribune contains an ac-
count Of the drowning Of Geo. Teed of
Trippville. He met death in the Bara-
boo river at ElroY, Sunday, August 81.
He was in bathing in the regular swim
ming hole and while he was not able to
swim stroke he recklessly jumped of
the spring board into ten or twelve feet
of water. When he struck the water he
attempted to cross to the farther shore,
but soon gave it up and tried to get
back to the side he started from. His
efforts were futile and he went down
almost within the reach of his friends
who were with him in the water. All
the bathers were yoUug men, but all of
them were as helpless beyond their
depths as the victim himself, consequent
ly they were a pc r life saving crew.
The trouble was ia locating the body, as
IL had drifted down stream several feet.
and on an angle, The body was under
the water about twenty minutes. Drs.
Voegle Gf.frity and Rundlett were soon
on hand, bat all attempts at resuscitat-
ing were fguitless; not the least flicker
of life was present,

MAKING A BIG HUSTLE.
Foreign and Local Buyers In Lively Chase for Our
Tobacco Crops

Last week was the finest of the sea-
son for ell kinds of farm work, especial
~ threshing and tobacco shedding The
latter is not yet at its best, but will be
about the time this paper is put TO press.
If weather continues fine to the end of
this week fully a third or half of the
crop of the county will be harvested,
There is much of the tobacco that is OF
fine quality, while the small and uneven
crops are coming along nicely under the
influence of good weather and each day
improves that grade A good many
crops were plowed under following the
hail storm, and others damaged more
or less are being handled with care in
order to save as much as possible. This
will, of necessity, be sold at a small,
price. The scramble for good crops is
going on with chase, by foreign and
local buyers, and very large per cent
age of the crops Of value have been
picked up at prices ranging from to
13 cents, the prevailing figure about 10
to II cents.
On the purchase and condition of the
new Wisconsin crop the Edgerton To-
bacco Reporter comments: "One of the
greatest guessing contests Of the season
is being conducted in the Crawford and
Vernon tobacco sections where more
than half hundred buyers are riding
about the country and guessing that the
Sobacco they see growing in the fields
will escape wind, hail, rust and frost
reach maturity and be harvested with
care; viii cure in the sheds without shed
burn, pole rot or other blemish be re-
moved from the curing barns and
stripped IN suitable case, and be worth
from $ to ~ cehts pound some time
after the new year opens.
This characterizes the movement of
contracting for the new crop in the
fields that has been under way for the
past two weeks, during which fully a
thousand acres Of standing tobacco has
been bought-or rather options taken
upon--for, of course, everything hinges
upon the ability of the growers to de-
liver sound tobacco, in good packing
condition, nearly six months hence. The
indications are that the rush will con-
tinue until most Of the early valley
crops have been ken over.
Heavy storms have swept the greater
portion of the tobacco growing sections
of the state during the week which Of
course has done some damage to the
growing crop, by wind beating and
sprinkling Of hail, but they have put IN
end TO the drouth and put the soil in e6-
cellent shape to mature the later 6elCs,
which with warm weather promise well
The harvest is now we'll under way in
all sections, probably from 10 to Is per
cent. of the crop IS already secured
