James Scott ofAllouez has proven
the fact that not only is Douglas
County a leader in vegetables, but
goes on to say, that the occupation of
honey-making, if given thorough
test, will be along the first. The rich
clover furnishes an excellent mater
ial so much needed in this industry.
During the past year Mr.. Scott re-
ceived 60 lbs. of honey from two hives
besides enough for the bees during
the winter. Mr. Scott will install a
large number of hives in the spring
and will go into the business quite
extensively.
Lawrence University has consented
to return to the estate the bequest of
the late Willis M. Cooper of Kenosha,
on request of the widow and daugh-
ter. In the settlement of the estate
a shrinkage of from fifty to seventy
five per cent was found. This has
lead the heirs to feel that the will
does not properly provide for their
support. The report circulated that
the University is influenced by the
death of Mr.. Cooper in theater is
without foundation, as the Trustees
had previously accepted the bequest
with appropriate resolutions of APP
probation and thankfulness. 1t was
supposed that the University would
receive about $4,000.
The worse storm of the year and in
fact for many years passed over this
section Tuesday. Monday evening
the snow began falling and continued
during the night with the wind gradu-
ally rising Tuesday morning broke
with the snow still falling and the
wind blowing at 40 mile rate which
kept increasing in its fury until it
reached 20 miles an hour about A o.
clock in the afternoon. Traffic on
the railroads was demoraljzed, the
trains on the N. p, Omaha and SO.
Shore being several hours late. The
street railway kept its cars moving
about on time through the effective
use of its huge snow pillow. The
storm was general extending over
the entire northwest and way into
the eastern states as well as through
the south centra. states.
