SEEK A MURDERER
Detectives From Milwaukee Look
Through Italian Colony
for Tony Tolistaria
TRACED SOUTH 70 RACINE

Detectives from Milwaukee were in
Kenosha Monday evening attempting
to find some trace of the murderer Of
Tomaso Tarantino, who was tt1ur-
dered in front of his home on Detroit
street in Milwaukee Sunday evening.
It is known that the murderer of the
man escaped on an electric car going
south and it is thought that he is in
hiding either in Racine or Kenosha.
According to the story told by Mil.
waukee Italians, Tarantino was vic
tim of the Malta, and it is alleged that
he has long been under surveillance
by certain members of the Italian or
ganization in Kenosha. 1t is thought
that the man who killed Tarantino
was one Tony To1istaria. The man,
after killing Tarantino, Jumped on a
car, but fearing detection he left the
car short time later and hid in Mil
waukee until later in the night, when.
| it is claimed that he boarded the
southbound iuterurban car. Monday
afternoon the detectives from Mil
waukee searched for the man at Ra-
cine, Ives and Kenosha, but they
were not able to find any trace of him.
On Sunday many Italians from cit
les in all parts of Wisconsin went to
Milwaukee to attend a picnic, and it
is thought that the murderer was
among this crowd.
| Local Italians state that they did
not know the dead man or the man
who is alleged to have killed him, and
no strange Italians have been seen
about Kenosha since the murder.
More than hundred of the Kenosha
Italians we're in Milwaukee on Sun.
day, however.
Eleven arrests we're made in Mil
waukee Sunday night and Monday
morning, but there was not sufficient
evidence to hold any of the suspects
It is evident that the Milwaukee,
detectives have reason to believe tina
Tolistaria is in hiding in Kenosha, fol
just before noon today three Mi1wau
kee detectives came to the city, an6
the general search of the Italian quar-
tiers was again inaugurated. Ever
house in the city in which Italians arr
living was visited, but no trace of thu
much wanted man was found. It i
almost impossible for the detective
to get line on the man, as he is no
known to them, and the Italian
found in Kenosha seem to be unwi1l
ing to give the officers any particula
: aid.
Il The officers claim that after tn
, murderer reached Racine he took
car from there towards Kenosha. Al
trains on the North-W are be
hing closely guarded to prevent the es
cape of Tolistaria by this method
and it is claimed that representative
, of the Milwaukee force will remain i
: Kenosha until some trace Of the ma
lis found.

Now THAT the thistle forfeiture law
has been upheld in the courts, it will
not do to stop with one case, unless
there is a general and immediate
cleaning up all over the county. It
is claimed that this first case was
spite work, but it has served to bring
the law to the attention Of the farm
ers ali through the county, and if they
fai' to cut their thist1es they now
know what action can be taken
against them. Furthermore, the
chairman of the town of Salem, at
whose instance, it is said, the first
suit was brought, can easily clear
himself of any suspicion of being
actuated by Interior motives in bring
ing this first suit, by bringing further
actions a rainst any and all farmers II
that town who are equally guilty
with Mr.. Paddock. 1t is impossible
to believe that there is only one case
in that town that needs looking after

FIND MODEL ASYLUM
KelOs6a County officials Highly
Pleased With New Institution
in Racine County.
BRINGING BACK PATIENTS

The tour of inspection to the new
Racine county asylum Monday after
noon proved to be great success,
and the officials of this county, who
were entertained at the institution,
are high in their praise of the sp1en-
did arrangements that have been pro-
vided for the care of the unfortunates
of Southern Wisconsin.
The members of the Kenosha dele
cation were taken to the asylum sta
ton from Racine on a special train,
and at the station they met the mem
bers of the Racine county board and
many of the friends of the unfortun-
ates who will later find home in the
asylum. The new building, which
was accepted by the Racine county
board on Monday afternoon, is said to
be the finest asylum in the state Of
Wisconsin. It is of brick and stone,
freproof construction, and is mod
e1ed after a famous New York hos
pita1. It is fitted out with all of the
most modern appliances for the care
of the insane. The asylum has ca
pacity of 200 pa tents. The rooms for
the patients are all furnished in good,
substantial furniture, and the rooms
are arranged in a home-1ike manner.
The big dining room on the first floor
of the building has a capacity of
nearly AGO. In the basement of the
building splendid auditorium has.
been built for the use of the inmates.
At the present time there will be
124 inmates in the asylum, and of that
number twenty-seven will be from
this county. Later it is expected
that patients will be sent from other
parts of the state, so that the Racine
hospital will be filed to its capacity
| before the end of the year.

CROWDS SEEK THE LAKE
Many People Go to Lakes Surf to Els.

MA ny FeOp1e 70 TO Lakes SURF TO II
cape the Terrors of Hot Weather
The fact that one of the greatest
demands of Kenosha is public bath
house was clearly shown last night
when crowds of people went to the
lake to escape the hot weather by
bathing in the surf. 1t is stated that
no less than seventy people we're
bathing in the lake north of the city.
There is absolutely 30 place where
the people may change their clothing
and many of them went to the lake
clad in bathing suits or walked to
houses a quarter of mile from the
beach. The boys managed to find a
place to change their clothing in the
willows along the lake shore.
A bath house of even small proper
tons would certainly be paying in
vestment in the city, and one of
larger proportions would undoubtedly
more than pay for itself in short
time.

Pasturage of Sheep.

The number of sheep that can be
kept upon an acre of land must de
pend, of course, on the quality of the
land and whether or not other farm
animals are roaming over it. 1t is,
however, a matter that has been wide
ly discussed. In some parts of the
British islands the best farmers keep
four sheep to an acre Of land when
said land is not used for the pasturage
of other kinds Of animals. In the
western part Of the United States, on
the great ranges, it is estimated that
the best land will maintain two sheep
while the poorer ranges require two
and even three acres of land pei
sheep. 1t must, however, be borne in
mind that in that part of the country
the rainfall is generally below fifteen
inches per year.
Where the land is good and the
rainfall in excess of thirty inches
from two to four sheep may or should
be kept. Some of our farmers find it
advisable to stock weedy pasture
with enough sheep to eat the weeds
and brush in addition to the grass.

Out of the corner of his shifty little

boy who was trying to feed him plug

"What's the matter?' asked the
camel in the next stall. "Some kid
feed you an apple loaded with cayenne
pepper?'
"Say, you'd grunt yourself" retort-
ed the elephant, looking wrathfully
down his ten feet Of ivory tusk, IF you
had the toothache in a pair of motors
the size of these"
"Oh, l know just how it feels, and
you have my sympathy" said the
camel. "See these two humps on my
back? Well, how'd YOU like to have
the lumbago in 'em?"
II am a candidate for sympathy,

necking into the conversation. with

The BREEDING Stock.

The range is good foundation
on which to build up breed.
ing line of hogs. 1t must be
supplemented, however, by ra,
tion well balanced, in which the carbo.
hydrate materials are about five OF
six times as abundant as the protein
rations. The feed, both from the range
and from the pals, should be abun.
dant that growth may be continuous.
If the range is too large and the
amount of grain and milk feed be too
small, the pigs will develop more bone
than anything else. This is an ex.
treme to be avoided, but it is not 50
often reached as the other of too much
corn.
