MISCELLANY
Timothy and Glover.

There is a controversy as to which
is best for hay, clover or timothy.
With the thoughtful farmer there Is
no cause for controversy. Each is
best in some circumstances. For the
feeding of dairy cows certainly would
not advise anyone to grow timothy, for
1t lacks in the protein elements SO nee
essary for dairy cows. But it is far
otherwise when the crop is being pro-
duced to be sold on the open market
or to be fed to horses. Now, for most
purposes. the open market pays more
1or timothy hay than for clover hay.
The public has long looked upon tim
othy hay as standard by which to
measure the value of all hays. I do
not think man could raise hay far
superior to timothy and sell it for the
same price as timothy. Timothy hay
has obtained reputation with city
men and it will be many. many years
before they learn that timothy hay Is
not the best for everything. 1t strikes
them as having substance, and for this
reason they feed it to every kind Of an
animal they have that eats hay.
So If man is going to sell hay he
should not mix them. But for himself
1t will pay to mix them in growing.
Sow clover and timothy together and
get good crop of exceptional value
for the dairy cows. 1t is also good
for the farm horses, for the clover is
rich in nitrogen, which is much lack
Ing in timothy hay. Experiments have
been made in growing timothy hay
and clover together, with the result
that greater weight of hay was pro-
duced from the same area than was
the case with either timothy or clover.
l cannot explain why more of the two
should be produced than would have
been of the one, but the case is as I
tell it. I think, too, that there
Is an advantage in handling the
mixed crop, as the two are more
easily cured than is red clover alone.
l am not sure that stock like the mix
ture better, but am inclined to think
they do. The only disadvantage see
In the growing of the mixed crop is
that it one wants to sell a load the
mixed hay will bring a lower price
because it is mixed-Walter Bisby.

Slow Progress in Cattle RAISING.


Mr.. P. M. Mccartney, farmer liv.
ing in Illinois, says that many
farmers he knows do not properly ap-
preciate the improved stock. He de-
sires to raise high-bred Herefords, but
he finds that all the farmers about are
raising only animals with no pedi-
grees. He declares that they think IL
an animal has four feet and head,
this is about all that is necessary. He
has tried both kinds himself and, in
fact, has both kinds to-day. He has
had them pasturing this summer side
by side. One high bred Hereford has
been in the pasture with the other
cattle, all Of which were raised from
cows by him. The high-grade Here
ford has been fed no more than tho
other animals and cost no more as q /.
calf, but is to-day worth for beef at
least $40 more than any Of the other
cattle:
He would breed his grade heifers ia
q Hereford bull, but there is no Here
ford bull in the neighborho0d, nor is
there any other male representative OF

This drying can be done by rubbing
the washed portions with dry, rough
cloth. A whisp of hay does the work
Of drying but imperfectly. The horses
should be kept clean at all times. The
stable that is kept dirty necessitates
greater amount Of washing than the
clean stable and for this reason the
bedding should be abundant. Some
horses are very hard to keep clean,

them before lying down. Such q

HELD TO CIRCUIT COURT.

Chas. ID. Abbott, who for some tin e
back has been associated with his
brother, William, in conducting real
estate and personal property deals, was
arrested at Epson Sunday by Sheriff
Damon on a charge of having disposed
OF mortsr1ged property. He was
brought here and arraigned in court
yesterday. From his story it appears
that he sold horse to l.. ID. Goldberg,
the horse dealer, at the request of his
brother. His brother some time ago
issued mortgage on all his remaining
property to III. g. Flieth to satisfy a
claim held against him by an indemnity
company, which furnished him bond
as administrator of his vife's estate.
Among the chattels included was the
horse, though the defendant claims he
he did not know of this fact. After the
sale had been made to Goldberg the
latter was forced to pay mortgage of
$40 on the horse and he then had q
warrant issued for Abbott's arrest
Abbott, according to his testimony,
went TO Epson few days ago, where
he received letter from his brother in
forming him that a warran had been
issued and advising him to get out of
the country and that he was going to
do likewise, and it appears he has done
so, for he could not be found yesterday.
After the examination Abbott was
held to trial in circuit court. His bail
was fixed at $500 and he was locked up
in Jail pending the furnishing of
bond

BRANCHING OUT.

A Green Bay dispatch to the Milwau-
kee Free Press says:
Griffith q Entzminger, proprietors
of the Continental clothing stores in
Green Bay and Wausau, will assume
control of the clothing department at
Goodman's department store, Milwau-
kee.
Extensive improvements will be
made in the furnishings of the depart
ment, it being the intentions of the new
proprietors to make the department
one of the most deliberately equipped
clothing establishments in the state.'
There can be no mistake made in say
ing that the firm of Griffith & Entz-
minger is progressive and hustling.
Since establishing a branch store in
Wausau two years ago, these gentle
men have made things hum, by their
up-to date methods and judicious adver-
Using. They recognize the fact that
this is an age of progress, and that the
merchant must keep abreast of the
times and let the public know that he
is alive, if he would succeed.

QUEER LOOKING ANIMAL.

John Braasch brought to the city,
Saturday, one of the most curious look
ing specimens of the animal family
ever found in this section Though not
so large or fierce looking, it rivaled in
rareness the famous Gene Shepherd
hodag, Mr.. Braasch went to a spring
on his place in the town of Maine that
morning to draw pail of water. He
noticed the animal swimming about in
the water trying to escape, and after
several efforts captured it, 1t was
about as large as a ehipmunk and of a
dark color Its front feet were webbed
as if it were an acquatic animal and it
had beaverlike tail Instead of a
mouth it had a sucker-like prohoscis
provided with short tentacles. Hun
dreds examined the animal and none
knew of what species it belonged until
ira Yelling representative of a lumber
firm, and who is well versed in the
work of Hoo Hoo, gave it as his opinion
that it was either young shark, boo
jun or jabberwock Another thought
it side hill gouger and various opin-
ions were expressed. All of these
theories are doubted by Seim Bros, in
whose store the animal is on exhibit,
and to satisfy their curiosity they have
offered prize of a second hand pair of
suspenders to anyone who will before
March 4th properly define to what
species this rare animal belongs. A.
paper collar will be given to the next
nearest guess.

APPRECIATES THE GIFT.

H. g. Flieth, who takes an interest in
the affairs of the agricultural school has
been presented with work bench by
the school. MIR. Flieth prides himself
on being somewhat of jackknife car
penter, and spends much of his spare
time at "tinkerius" broken things.
He gets enjoyment out of it. Prof.
Johns, of the above school, some time
ago set the boys at work on a work
bench and when the same was com-
pleted few days ago it was sent up
to Mr. Flieth's house and MIR. Flieth is
as proud of it as youngster is of a
little red wagon.
Every boy in the manual training
classes made a part of it. No great
pains ere taken to make it ornamen-
tai, but it is a practical, handy affair, far
more so than the bench used by the
ordinary carpenter, and it is only the
practical things that are demonstrated
to the students of the above school If
every farmer could see the practical
worth of this school it would be neces-
sary to build an addition on it next
spring, the enrolment would be so
large.
Mr. Flieth greatly appreciates the
gift and says his advice to the young
farmer is Take a course in the agricul-
tural school,"

itself and struck McNair on the right
side of the head, fracturing his skull
and rendering him unconscious. He
was picked up and placed OF the loco

DIED IN CHICAGO.

Mrs. Bernhard ZIelsdorf died at $50
O'Clock Sunday evening in Augustana
hospital, Chicago. She had been in
poor health for a number of years but
lately, feeling worse than usual, decided
to 90 to Chicago and consult a special
Isl. She left the city on Monday week
ago and DR.. A. j. Oschsner, the well
known surgeon, advised an operation
and the operation was performed last
Friday. After that she grew weaker
until death relieved her sufferings.
Mrs. Zielsdorf's maiden name was Yena
Plisch, she being the third oldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Oswald
Plisch, old and respected residents of
the town of Berlin. She was born in
the town of Berlin June Sth, 1878,
where she resided up to the time of her
marriage Sept. 3lst, 1897, when she
removed to Wausau and has lived here
ever since.
Besides her parents she is survived
by two children, girl of six years and
boy of three. Also four brothers and
five sisters Louis, Robert and Armin,
of this city; Edward, of the town of
Berlin; Mrs. j. Mercy, of 'Minocqua;

A TYPE OF DEGENERATE.

Friday evening Sheriff Jones, of
Waukeshs county, arrived in the city
and on Saturday arrested Emil Scher-
macher, who was stopping on the west
side. Schermacher was formerly a
resident of Deerfield, Waushara comfy,
but had lived here for the past two
months, and the officers of the former
county have been collecting evidence
against the man for over a year past.
He is charged with being criminally in
innate with his daughter, girl of 16,
who has been working as a domestic in
this city, and there is evidence to sup
port the belief that he has been guilty
of similar offenses with two other
daughters, aged thirteen and nineteen,
and it is highly probable that a case of
infanticide can be proved against him.
1t all that is said against Schumacher
can be substantiated he is one of the
most degraded whelps that ever drew
a breath.
The woman who has been living with
him on the west side, he married some
months ago, and was formerly Wau-
sau girl. She is his third wife.
