Wisconsin Tobacco Reporter
FRIDAY. JANUARY II, 1906.

We IMAGINE the Stoughton Courier
does not fully understand the temper of
the farming community in which it cir
culates or it would not give utterance to
the following: MAX Jeffris of James
vile thinks he ought to go to congress
and that Hal Cooper ought to stay at
home This is not the first time Mr..
Jeffris has had this thought floating
around in his Uranium; and it may not
be the last time His platform appeals
to the selfshness of his district. There
are a number of tobacco and sugar beet
raisers in the southern tier of counties
who have all the human tendencies of
greed and selfshness. They want what
they produce protected. 1t is shrewd
business move on their part, but how
does it affect other residents of the dis
trict who consume both sugar and to-
bacco, but who raise neither?" There
is too much tobacco and sugar beets pro-
duced in Dane county to make such
reading exactly pleasing to the farmers
whose daily bread and not politics, is at
stake.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1906-01-12

AFTER prodigious efforts covering some
months, list of forty names of assem-
blymen has been secured endorsing Mr..
Lenroot for governor There are no
names of senators; it is likely that half
breeds like Senator Stout, Hatten,
Burns, Sanborn and others refusing to
sign, the remnant would cut so pitiful a
showing that it was deemed better to
leave that body alone. The primary
election idea is that citizens shall find
their own candidates; this Lenroot petit
ton shows how politicians will seek to
get round it. The first stone is thrown
by those who made the law. From the
first Mr.. Lenroot has not been accepta-
bic. In the La Toilette organization
there is great resistance to him. 1t is
felt that he is mere cover under WHICH
Mr.. La Toilette may be both governor
and senator. Much as many admire the
new senator they feel that one is enough
Mr.. Lenroot is the embodiment of servil-
ity and has ever been that. He has no
marked ability; be has no personal
charm or strength; ne has no standing
in his profession. He is tool, cog in
political machine; and this is a bad
time in American life for machines. The
man is unpopular and he can not be
choked down the throats of the citizens
of Wisconsin.-St Journal.

How watertown Geese Are Stuffed.

Five thousand or more stuffed geese
are being marketed at WatertoWn dur
ing the holiday season, the largest num-
Der since the establishment of tho indus
try, of which that city is the center for
the northwest. The average price of the
geese is S..
The fattening process is interesting
and in this the secret OF the success IN
geese raising is to be found. During the
summer and early fall months they are
fed regularly like other poultry, but
about November each bird is put into
a separate coop and fed every few hours
with specially prepared food. The
week before it's sale the goose is fed
hourly, day and night, and given large
quantities of water to drink, and as re-
suit it grows fat and wobbly. The pro
cess further assisted by the fact that the
fowl can not move about in it's coop and
has no means of exercise whatever. The
killing must be done with great care as
the skin is delicate and can be easily
marred. Only those whose skin mas an
unblemished white color can command
the hie hest price on the market. Geese
come out of this fattening process with
liver weighing 81 pounds. This is con-
sidered one of the finest delicacies that
can be procured anywhere. The average
weight of Watertown geese is "a pounds.
They are shipped to every section of the
United States.

The past month of December will pass
into history as one Of the most remark
able, so far as the weather features are
concerned, the weather bureau has ever
put on record So much is, at least, Sc
cure, though we cannot hope for equally
good fortune and exemption during the
winter months yet to come. January
and February are still before US, and
both are usually full freighted with their
days Of snow and gales with ice and
penetrating cold But even then we
shall have gained something. The win
ter, whether mild or severe, will have
been shortened by the mild season pre-
ceding the incoming Of 1906, and that
will mean much to many Of us. Cold
weather has its uses, however much we
may dislike it, Nature requires it's per-
iods of rest just as the human kind does.
The sown fields require a covering of
snow to protect them from the bleak
winds that sweep over them. Fruit and
other trees require period of rest that
