FORTUNES FOR FARMERS
Cabbage Prices Soaring to the Toy
and Big Returns Expected

Cabbage Prices Soaring to the Top
and Big Returns Expected
To the cabbage industry that in the
past few years has become one Of the
chief features of Kenosha county ag-
ricrlture, the present season promises
to be one of unprecedented success. as
there is big demand for the vegeta~
bic and prices are rapidly increasing
as the crop is being harvested Wits
good indications that it will reach a.
very high mark before the season is
over.
In most parts of the county the
early crop has been very good, and re-.
ports of seventy tons to the acre are
not uncommon. The present price of
the commodity is SIS per ton Ga the
cars. Several car loads were shipped
Thursday at this price and the de-
mand is by no means supplied.
A large number of the growers
make practice of contracting for the
sale of their entire crop in advance of
the time that it is to be delivered, and
these men at the present time are re-
GREETING their haste. Thousands of
tons have been contracted for at from.
S4 to SIS per ton, and where one farmer
is delivering his crop into the car at
SIS another will be delivering the
same class of crops for less than one
third as much.
People familiar with the industry
look for record-breaking prices before
the winter is over, and many are of
the opinion than the tremendous 6gure
of 500 per ton that was received by
several growers late in the season
three years ago will be duplicated
While large portion of the crop is
being sold to Chicago parties foc in1-
mediate shipment, large number Of
the growers have built cold storage
plants of their own and will store
their crop, together with what they
can buy, until later in the season
when the prices are expected to he
much higher.

FORM AN ORGANIZATION

L. ]. PofahI Elected Secretary of Wis.,
consin State Bakers Associates
The idea of organization also has:
spread to the master bakers of Wis
consin who met at the Republicans
house, Milwaukee, Thursday after
noon, forming "The Wisconsin State
Association of Master Bakers =
The organizing meeting was held
behind closed doors, and so very
scarce reports sifted out regarding
the proceedings of the conference. A
resolution was adopted to the effect
that the new society indorses the pure
food movement, and s15o earnestly
supports every plan with the purpose
Of purifying all kinds of food, thus CO.
operating with several other state or
CARNATIONS.
A constitution and bylaws were
aopted, and it was further decided
to@Nseld the next convention ia Mill
waukeeS'n September 1906.
Officers of the executive committee
were elected as follows:
President Charles Kremer, Mil.
waukee.
Vice President - John Weiuertz
Manitowoc.
Secretary-J. L. Pofahl, Kencsha.
Treasurer. F. Kutler, Appleton.
Additional members of the execu-
tive committee were:
O. B. Schulz, Racine, Paul Colvinv
GAINESVILLE.
At the meeting State Bakery In
spector Cutler was present, and took
advantage of the opportunity to ex-
press his satisfaction with the geu-
eral sanitary conditions throughout
the state; the gentleman voiced his
sentiment thus:
"The sanitary conditions are con-
stantly being improved, and no o0e IS
better pleased with the result tdau
the bakers themselves. I consider
that the master bakers of Wisconsin
are ready to comply with the provis-.
ions of the law in all respects. Pros
ecution under the law has in many
cases proved equivalent to driving a
man out of business. The public don't
want to patronize man who runs an
untidy bake shop"
It is expected that all the 500 MASTER
bakers of the state in the course of
the year will enter the association
which then will act as a guarantee
for the purity of the food the general
public consumes.

A CATHOLIC CENSUS
Now Being Taken in Diocese, in
Compliance With Orders
From. Rome
ACCORDING TO NATI0NALITIES

A census of the Catholic parishes
of the state, accordinglto nationality,
is being taken IN compliance with
orders received from the propaganda
at Rome, and d circular letter has
been sent out by Archbishop Messmer,
transmitting the orders to the clergy.
The returns are to be forwarded to
Rome before January /, 1906, and
must be made to the archbishop be-
fore Novem Der 1.
This is the first time that census
according to nationa1ities has been
taken in America. According to the
rules, three generations are required
to make an American. There is
much speculation as to the purpose in
classifying the census results in this
manner.
1t has been customary to take a do
cesar census at intervals, but only to
ascertain the number of families in
each parish, to form the basis of
diocesan assessments.
The archbishop's circular follows:
Some time ago the sacred. congrega-
ton of the propaganda Rome, de-
manded accurate statistics of the
faithful and the clergys. of.sthis arch
diocese according to nationa1ities.
BY some mistake the matter has been
delayed. Hence kindly ask you to
take up a census of your parish at
once, if not alreadya.done,: according
to the enclosed schema.
The nationality OLA family will be
determined by it's descent on the
fathers side and the language spoken
in the family. Where three genera
tons Of family were born in this
country and the present head speaks
the English eson1y, it may be
classified as American. In case of
doubt classify according to general
and popular estimation.
Paying families are those who help
to support the church according to
their means.
Single persons are.grown Catholics,
Is years or more of age, unmarried,
making their own living independent
OF INC 4du11y' AO1CSSCu OdlAO4ACS
who do not practice their religion will
be classified as mo church mem
bers."
The tabu1ated form accompanying
the letter calls for statistics regard
ing the number ofsfamilies, the num-
Der below the age of IS, the number
of single persons, the number of non
church going members, the foreign
born, the American born, and the
total number of individuals.
The nationalities to be enumerated
are American, Bohemian, French,
Belgian, German, Ho1landish, Flem-
ish, Hungarian, Oriental, Syrians,
Greeks, Polish, S1ovak and Slovene.

Justice Mccarron Reduces Bail
Bond of Peter Achton From
5000 to Sis, 600
NO WITNESSES APPEARED
Preliminary Hearing is Continued
for Ten Days More, But the
District Attorney Wall Insist
That Achton Stand Trial

Peter Achton, the Chicago retired
capitalist who has been in jail for the
past ten days awaiting preliminary
hearing on charge of attempting to
murder his son, John Peter Achton,
was arraigned before Justice McCar-
ron this morning and another adj
journment in the case was taken.
The hearing is now set for Sept. Is,
and as the victim of Achton is show
ing signs of recovery the amount of
bond demanded for the release of
Achton was placed at $4,000. At
first the district attorney agreed to
place the bail at $4,000 but later a
report was brought from the son to the
effect that his condition was:still seri-
Gus and that he demanded daily visits
from his physicians. It was stated
that the younger Achton was suffer
ing from both physical and mental
ailments, and considering these facts
Attorney Baker insisted that SIS, 900
was not too large balm theImatter.
The name of Mrs. Achton, the al
legged missing wife of the accused
man, was not mentioned at the hear
ing.
None of Actions re1atives..:.was in
court and he was not represented by
an attorney. However, he presented
very changed appearance from the
time he first appeared in sthe court
room. He had been given new suit
of clothes and had dressed for the oc-
casion. Once during the hearing
Achton took a hand in the matter
when he stated that he had. expected
a visit from his Chicago attorney
Thursday morning but that he had not
put in an appearance. Attorney
Kelley, who is representing Achton,
stated few days ago that he would
be able to give bond of $4,000, and
it is possible that the old man will be
released from custody before the end
of the week.
District Attorney Baker is not TAX
ing great deal of stock in the state
ments of relatives that Achton is in
sane, and he insisted this morning
that there would have to be pre1im-
mary hearing of the case in this
county and that evidence would have
to be produced to show conc1usively
that the accused man was insane be-
fore he would consent to turn him
over to the Illinois authorities for an
examination into his mental condition.
Mr.. Baker holds that as the scrir1e Of
which he was charged was committed
in this county, it is necessary for the
officers of this county to be fully sat
isfed that Achton is insane before he
be allowed to go toSan asylum. Mr..
| Baker stated that he had not seen
Mrs. Achton and had not been adj
vised as to the wishes of the family
in the matter, but that he could not
take cognizance of such facts until
after the evidence in the case had
been presented at the preliminary
hearing. Achton seemed to be per-
fectly satisfied to return to jail and
wait for ten days more before the
hearing is concluded.

paid visit to the various butter and
cheese factories in Kenosha county
for the purpose of making the annual
inspection and while it is thought
that all of the creameries in the
county passed muster the report of
the state officials will be awaited
with interest. 1t is claimed that the
law governing the operation of
creameries is violated almost daily
and for this reason the state inspector
aims to keep pretty close watch on
the different institutions.
