Mrs. Frances A. 3. Dunning
Urges Formation of a His
toricaI Association
MUSEUM FOR ANTIQUITIES

Mrs. Frances A. B. Dunning, OF
Chicago, has written letter to a
number of prominent people in Ke.
nosha urging that these people take
some steps to form local Historical
Society and to provide for the opening
of Kenosha county museum, in
which place can be found for the
care of cherished relics Of the early
days in Southport. Kenosha is one
of the most interesting cities on the
lake shore and little has been done to
preserve the history of the old days OF
Southport and the early days Of Ke-
nosha. The interesting historical
facts in regard to the city have been
gathered up by one or two men writ.
ing histories of the county, but most
men without personal interest in
the work and many of the most inter
esting and pertinent facts in regard
to the founding of the city have never
been placed in form to be handed
down to posterity. Mrs. Dnnning has
suggested the Formation of Histori-
cal Society which will gather up
these stories of pioneer days and
hand them down to future genera
tions.
A museum of Kenosha county anti
quities would be equally interesting
In many of the attics and cellars IN
kenoshaSare stored away many things
of great interest to the students of
the early history of the city and many
people would be glad to give these
things to museum to get rid of them.
In few more years they will be
broken up and thrown away.
So far no one has been found to
take the initiative in the formation of
such an association in the city, but if
the matter was started there is no
doubt but that many people would aid
in the work and that it would prove
success from the start. Mrs. Dun
ming has always taken great inter-
est In the city and she herself has
collected great deal of early history
which she would turn over to the new
society.
While there is no room in the libra
ry building that could be used as a
Kenosha county museum there are
plenty of other rooms that couide be
secured and there is little doubt but
that if the museum were properly.
started the money would be forthcom-
ing to build building suitable for
the care of the relics of the early
times.
The suggestion of Mrs. Dunning
has been discussed by number of
the people who have been interested
in these antiquities Of the city and it
is thought that they will take some
action on the plan within short time

GOOD FOR FARMERS
Annual Crop Report Shows That
Present Year Promises TO be
a Record Breaker
CITY SHARES IN PROSPERITY

The following crop report, issued
Friday by Secretary True of the
state board of agriculture, shows that
the Wisconsin farmers have had one
OF the best years in the agricultural
history OF the state:
"Our final crop report for this
season aims to give the average yield
per acre Of the principal farm crops
grown in Wisconsin, the quality OF
the same-upon basissof 100, repre-
senting high average for term OF
Eyears-and the average price Of the
same on the home market.
yields have been uniformly good.
as generally favorable crop condi-
tons have prevailed throughout the
state during the entire season.
1.-The yield of small grains was
diminished in the southern section
during the early, summer and higher
averages are received from the cen
trail and northern sections.
"The corn crop of the state is the
best for long term.1of years, the
crop being fully matured even in
those parts of the state where it has
not been considered safe to attempt
to cultivate it. Our figures relative
to this crop look large, but we are
satisfied that they are not overdrawn.
"The potato crop matured in fine
form. There is little complaint of
blight or rot, though.in most locations
considerable damage was reported
from grub worms. Nevertheless the
crop would have been fine but for the
severe frost early in October.
1t is estimated that hardly one
third of the crop had been secured at
that time, and from one-third to one
half OF the tubers then in the ground
were destroyed. In addition to the
loss of crop the liability to mix FROST
ed potatoes with sound ones has
added immensely to the work Of pre-
pairing the crop for market and has
unsettled prices for the time Aside
from losses by frost, the crop remains
larger than that Of last year and is Of
a better quality and prices will doubt
less ADVANCE for clean, well assorted
stock.
The yield Of c1overseed is light,
and the qualityainferior. Many parts
of the state where the crop has
usually ebeen important a failure is
now reported:
Sugar beets have made good
yield and are being marketed at good
prices.
ION many of the products herein
classified local2 prices vary to con-
siderable extent, especially where
crops, like potatoes, are difficult of
transportation, but as whole prices
compare favorably with those of last
season, while yields are generally
more satisfactory.
We give the following table from
the reports of CORES pondents.

IMPORTANT COAL DISCOVERY.
Property at CoaldaIe, New, viii
Solve the Fuel Problem.

At Coaldale, about thirty miles north
west of Goldfield, II. c. Petty, a we'll
known prospector, has uncovered an ore
vein which is believed to be of large ex-
tent A shaft has been sunk for a dis
lance OF 1870 feet, and considerable tun-
neling and lateral work has been done.
1t is reported that the values improve as
they go down and the coal is very fair
in grade The property has just been sold
by Petty to a syndicate of eastern capt.
talfsts, who propose to set about develop
ment on a large scale. The price paid
was s21,6O0
The Importance of the discovery is
scarcely 10 be estimated. Even Ignite
coal. which is very low in carbon, has
a distinct value in the desert portions of
Nevada, where the large companies are
operating. A deposit of coal of good
steaming quality would prove nearly as
rich as the richest bonanza mines of the
state TO its owners.
The present price of coal In southern
Nevada is SIS a ton. a valuation which
is prohibitive to large mills and smelt-
ing enterprises. The building of these
will be greatly accelerated by the produc-
ton of coal near at hand. 1t is more than
likely that other prospectors who have
ignored the vast possibilities of the coal
deposits in this state, encouraged by Pet
tvs example, will search for coal.

SEMINOE'S GOLD ORE.
Wyoming Proposition That Is Max
ina a Fine Showing.

Charles E. Knapp brought in with him
from the Seminoe some of the finest
looking specimens of gold ore one would
care to see. In every piece gold can be
st en- with the naked eye, despite the fact
that the ore has been carried for miles in
a sack and some of the pieces of the pre-
ciods metal have been knocked off, says
the RaWlins (WyO.) Journal.
The officers Of the company are feeling
very jubilant over the outlook, and are
satisfied that with the present progress
it will not be long before they have a pay
ing mine.
Tie driving of tunnel under all OF the
claims in the mountain assure a PROPOSE
ton of such magnitude as to make one
gasp when he realizes il in its full extent.
There are now six good veins known, all
of which have been sufficiently developed
to show their permanency.
These veins will all be cut by the tun-
mel and drifts will be run on each vein
as 1t is cut. This will give the company
an opportunity 10 be working In pay ore
as the development work is prosecuted,
and from the time the first vein is
reached the company will be in a position
TO pay dividends.
The machinery which has been shipped
to the mine is rapidly being placed in po-
sition and the real work Of driving the
tunnel will soon begin.
