A Catch.

The late Susan B. Anthony once at
tended wedding In Rochester, and
at the reception she said to the bride
groom:
IF you want this marriage to be
happy one, you must be as kind and
tender always as you are now. Never
relax for moment your attitude OF
loving solicitude. Never relax 1t,
though you find hundred excuses for
doing SO.
"Such excuses, believe me, are easy
to find. l once knew a young couple
whose marriage had not turned out as
happily as it should have done. The
wife said to the husband one evening:
Before we were married, dear,
you were always giving me presents.
Why do you never give me any now%
My love- the husband replied,
did you ever hear of a fisherman Civ
ing bait to fish he had caught""

River Falls Produce Co.

The River Falls Produce Co. is
engaged in picking cucumbers and
picking them. The company has
several acres into cucumbers with
promising crop. Later the cab
bage crop of the vicinity will be
converted into sauerkraut. The
old hay barn has been remodeled
and covered, roof and sides, with
an impervious material to keep out
not only the rain but the air, the
keeping of sauerkraut requiring
such condition. Large tracts of
ground have been devoted to the
raising of cabbages this season
about here and the condition of the
crop at this time is exceptionally
good. The season, with much rain,
has been very favorable for the adj
vance of this esculent vegetable.

farewell sermon to large congre-

day evening. Rev. Clough, pastor
of the Methodist Episcopal church
and Rev. Spencer, pastor of the
Congregational church, with many
of their people being present as evil
dence OF good will and esteem for
the retiring pastor. At the conclu-

Mr.. C1ough and Mr.. Spencer spoke
of Mr.. Erickson in cordial and fra
ternal kindness, attesting to his
worth as minister, useful citizen

harmony and Christian unity and
had every occasion to hold each
other in the highest esteem and af-
fectionate regard. They spoke in
high praise of the ltnsullied charac-
ter of the retiring pastor and COM

WHEN NATURE CLEANS HOUSE.
Rainy Season in Caracas the clty's
Sanitary Salvation.

ndtIV 0GdSQu III SdTdC IIG Nlky
Sanitary Salvation.
Just what Caracas would do with
out its rainy season | cannot imagine.
for the city is far from being clean
and sanitary. Garbage is thrown into
the yards for the vultures to feed
upon. writes George NJ. L. Brown In
st. Nicholas; dust and papers accumu-
late in the streets and the visitor Is
about to pronounce the city the dirt
lest he has ever seen, when nature
suddenly decides to put things to
rights. An ordinary rainfall would
not suffice now; a thorough flushing
is needed, and nothing short of
deluge will do it.
But somewhere up in the mountain
tops the deluge is forming, and pres
emily a great, black vapor overspreads
the valley. 1t comes slowly at first, as
if to warn the people to go indoors,
but when it has acquired sufficient
density it falls. In a moment, almost,
the streets and court yards are flood
ed, the fantastic water spouts that
overhang the sidewalks pour out their
streams like gigantic kettle spouts.
and loud is the noise of the splashing
and SCATTERING.
Half an hour later one tiptoes
along the shiny pavements, as if over
a newly scrubbed floor; above him il
a sky of spotless blue, while the only
clouds to be seen are Insignificant
patches of white along the mountain
sides. Yet, in an incredibly short
space OF time the whole process may
be repeated.

WISCONSIN STATE FAIR.
Great Annual Even Will be
Held at Milwaukee Sept.
10 to IA.

The Wisconsin State Fair will be
held at Milwaukee the second week
in September, opening on Monday,
Sept. 10th. All the preliminary ar
rangements for the great event have
been completed by the board of
managers. Special railroad rates
of one fare for the round trip will
prevail during the week and every
provision has been made for the ac-
commodation of the hundreds of
thousands of Wisconsin people who
will attend.
Never before in the history of
Wisconsin has such an attractive
program been offered by the State
Fair management. Twenty-Five
thousand dollars in premiums for
live stock, agricultural, dairy and
other state products has been offer
ed. For the racing events the sum
of $4,000 is offered. More than
800 entries have been made in the
various speed classes which are to
include two racing events for which
purses of $4,000 are offered and
three So, 500 events. Wisconsin will
lead all other states in the charac-
ter of its races, the best horses
from all parts of the country having
been entered for various events.
While every effort has been made
to make the fair the most complete
exposition of the agricultural
achievements of the state, special
provision has also been made for
startling and spectacular entertain
ment features. Wisconsin people
will be given their first opportunity
to witness the marvellous maneu-
vers of an airship, Early in the
year the contract was made for
ascensions by the Knabenshue Air
ship which is the only one in the
country that has made successful
trips in the air. Roy Knabenshue,
the famous aerial operator, will
make ascensions from the grounds
and travel down to the heart of
Milwaukee and back each afternoon,
the weather conditions being favor
able.
The Ladies' Relay Running races
which were such popular feature
last year will be repeated this year
each afternoon. Four miles will be
raced each day, the ladies changing
horses every half mile.
Elaborate preparations have been
made for the evening entertainment.
The Pains Fireworks Company has
been engaged to provide spectacu-
lar fireworks for four evenings of
the week. Vaudeville acts will be
given before the grandstand each
afternoon and evening which may
be witnessed free of charge.
Many improvements have been
made on the grounds, including
several miles of new cement side
walk and the erection and repairing
of several buildings. The splendid
stock Judging pavilion, having
capacity of four thousand people,
will be used for indoor judging
events and free exhibitions of horse
manship and military maneuvers.
Remember the date, Sept. 1914.

There was less clover in this
vicinity this year than for many
Ilyears previous, while last year
clover was especially abundant.
This scarcity of clover was not ow-
ing to less being sown than last
year but to winter killing, an unus-
ual thing in this locality. Clover
does not often get killed here by
the severity of the cold or even
| from the absence of snow. 1t is
thought that clover was killed last
winter by smothering of ice. 1t
will be remembered that at one time
for several weeks the ground was
covered with a coating of ice.
