COTTON TALK.
Had Policy For All 10 Chase "the
Same Cotton Dollar"

Had Policy For All 10 Chase "the
Same Cotton Dollar"
If we make an overproductlon of cot
ton we have only two alternatives. One
is to take reduced price, and the 9th
or Is to retire the surplus. Now, If we
have to retire this surplus and hold It
at great trouble and expense which It
will be absolutely necessary to do In
order to maintain the price, then the
question naturally arises, Why should
we produce it2
Many, on account Of their location
and position, are certain to plant more
cotton, so we call upon all who can
see their way clear to produce other
paying crops to do so and plant less
cotton as an Offset. All the time, how
ever, we want to encourage the In
creaslng of the yield Of cotton per
acre. This is wise, 50 we must curtall
the acreage proportlonately to main
tain profitable prices.
Variety Ii More Than n Spice.
Whenever all of us get to working for
the same cotton dollar competition be-
comes sharper, while the opportunity
to make the best use of our time, labor
and varied resources upon our farms
is proportionately curtalled. No one
can utilize his time as prohtably rails
ing one crop as he can when under
taking to grow proper variety. Eva
riety is not only the spice of lfe;" 1t
Is essential to the well balanced and
highly probably operated farm. And
every good farmer will give every crop
that he can grow successfully and prof.
itably Its due place in his years pro-
gramme.-Southern Cultiyat0r.

SECTION OF HOTBEp.

shelter some strawy manure and let II
heat for about a week before using
turning it occasionally. Select a sunny
(southeasO exposure for the hotbed.
The pit for the hotbed may be one to
three feet deep. Good drainage is es-
sential.
1t is the practice Of some gardeners
to make the bed entirely above ground.
In that case the frame should be at ev-
cry point about a foot inside the edge
Of the manure heap.
An inch or two of coarse stuff is put
at the bottom Of the bed, and upon this
eighteen inches to three feet of horse
manure. Next comes a layer Of leaf
mold and on top four or five inches Of
fine garden loan.
The manure should be trodden down
in layers about six inches thick.-Farm

Chief Wettmore is Kept Busy
Receiving Proposals For a
Site for New Building
BUSINESS MEN GET BUSY
Every Effort is Being Made to Keep the
Building on Main Street or East
of thames A. Wettmore
Makes No Statement

James A. Wettmore, Chief of the
Law and Record Department of the
Office of the Supervising Architect,
of the United States Government,
spent decidedly busy day in Kenosha
Tuesday, hearing arguments in re-
gard to the sites to be selected for the
location of the new postoffice build
ing in Kenosha. Before the after
noon was over the chief of the depart
ment had received several new pro.
posals for sites and as result all con-
illusions as to the possible location of
the building are In the air and a new
deal is being made.
The first new site to be proposed
was the site at the corner of Wiscon-
sin and Exchange street, owned by L.
M. Eichelman, Judge ]. V. Quarles of
Milwaukee and other people. This
site 127x90 feet was offered at a price
of $4,000. 1t is possible that the
government would be able to purchase
another small piece of property just
north of the one offered so as to give
all the room demanded for the build
ing and grounds. Another site Of
fered was the property of Mrs. o. G.
King al the same corner just east of
the Quarles property. This property
11Ox150 is offered at $4,000 and it is
certainly one of the most available
sites SO far proposed. BY many

CASE rs DISMISSED
Action Brought Against Home Tele-
phone Company is Dropped


The suit instituted by the state of
Wisconsin against the Kenosha Home
Telephone company on the complaint
of DR.. e. F. Rowe1l has been settled
out of court and when it is called for
a hearing at the adjourned DAY in
Justice Sturges court on Wednesday
it will be formally dismissed. The
company will pay the costs of the
action. The suit was of the most i'm
portant nature as DR.. Rowell, on
whose behalf the state brought the
complaint for forfeiture, had alleged
that the purpose Of the suit was to Sc
cure better telephone service in Ke-
nosha. In the complaint the company
was charged with discrimination.
The phone service sought by Rowell
is now being supplied toshim by the
company and it is understood. that the
suit is closed chapter.
One of the directors Of the company
in speaking of the matter this morn
ing said: ssYou can put it down that
this fight ended in draw. When we
men consented TO take places as di-
rectors of this company we did it with
the intention of furnishing better
telephone service to the people of the
city and we believe that we have sue
ceeded in this plan. The Exchange
here is stated by experts as the most
modern ard up-todate exchange in
the United States, and as we are get
ting down to work / believe that the
service has been greatly improved.
We do not want to quarrel with any
citizen Of Kenosha-that was not the
purpose of the organization of the
company and rather than take part in
such quarrel we have paid the costs
Of this action and it has been discon-
tinued. !"
DR.. Rowell seems to have been en-
tirely satisfied with the settlement of
the matter as he stated from the first
that he had no intention of fighting,
the company more than to such an ex-
tent as to secure proper service for
his Office and home. The company
has placed the phones asked for by
the doctor.

FORMER KENosHAN ARRESTED
w. Hind Formerly of Kenosha, Held on
Serious Charge at Waukegan

w. Hind Formerly of K enosla, Held on
Serious Charge at Waukegan
William Hind, Of Highland Park.
formerly of Kenosha, thought it was
fun to sell railroad tickets. He
thought it was more fun to keep the
money thus secured. The North
Western railroad thought differently,
and as result Hind is behind the
bars in the county jail at Wankegan.
Hind secured a position as baggage
man at the station at Highland Park
on November %. The next day, while
the station agent was absent for a
few minutes, he helped himself to two
tickets from the case. A few days
ago he repeated the action, it is said.
The tickets he sold and secured
5000 from the transaction. This he
kept himself.
But when the monthly report was
made out the absence of the four
tickets were noticed and reported into
Chicago. Investigation by detectives
of the road resulted in a confession
from Hind and he was brought to
Waukegan Saturday night.
Monday morning he was held by
Justice Van Deusen to the grand jury
in bonds of $500.
When brought up on the train Sat
urday evening by the detective, Hind
amused the passengers by relating
his crime in loud terms so all in the
car could hear.
When asked where his parents lived
he replied: 20, dunno. Somewhere
on the west side In Chicago. rs too
much trouble 20 keep track Of them. =

A PROPOSITION to raise the pay of its
own members, coming from Con-
gress that refused to advance the sal
airy of the President, is not going to
be very favorab1y received by the pub
lie in general, and in some of the
rural districts the members are going
to have difficulty in explaining to
their constituents how they are un-
able to get along on five thousand a
year and allowances. A boost in sa1a-
ries would undoubtedly result in the
defeat of some of the mem bers, but it
looks very much as if raise was 60
ing to be put through at this session
just the same.

IN all the investigations of the in
surance business the solvency of the
big companies has never been ques-
toned. Their assets were found in
tact and they demonstrated their abil-
ity to meet all their liabilities to the
complete satisfaction of the investi-
gators. 1t was the business methods
of the companies that we're attacked,
not the principle of life insurance and
this fact cannot be given too much
publicity. Great good will ultimate
ly result from the present upheaval
in the life insurance business in the
new laws which have been passed for
the regulation of the companies and
the distribution of the earnings on
policies, but there has been one bad
result of the agitation and that is the
cancellation Of large numbers Of poll
cies. This is no time for any holder
of az insurance policy to drop it and
that fact cannot be too strongly i'm
pressed upon the public. For the
next twenty years the policy holders
are going to get better treatment
from the companies than ever before
and greater share in the profits and
the man who let's himself be STAN
peded and drops his insurance is go
ing to live to regret it.

The State Board of Control evident
ly takes common sense view of the
matter and it is evident that as long
as Kenosha county pays the bills its
Board of Supervisors will be allowed
to name the asylum where the insane
dependents are to be kept, for seven
Kenosha county insane patients we're
ordered sent to the Racine asylum
Monday. Of course the Board of
Supervisors had perfect right to re-
quest the return of the Kenosha
patients to the Racine asylum, but it
is gratifying to know that the State
Board approves of the plan to get the
insane patients supported by Kenosha
county nearer home where their
friends and relations can see that
they are well cared for and under
the more immediate supervision of
our Board.

people 1T is favored over the site on
the west side of Exchange street. It
IS Just as close to the business district
and It has little better outlook. The
price is considered fair by real estate
men
another site that was offered was
the site of the Grant Planning mill.
but no price was placed on this piece.
The Sullivan and Riley property bet
ter known as the John Mooney proper
ty at the corner of Park and Chicago
streets, was also proposed and if the
government wants it the owners will
sell 1t at reasonable price. The
Wattles property was offered in con-
nection with the property owned by
James Pennefeather at price of S37,-
600 and while this site is considered
one of the best in the city it is thought
that the price is so high that the
government will not consider it.
Mr.. Wettmore would make no state
ment, but it is evident that his choice
lies between the two properties on
Wisconsin street. the Simmons prop
erty on Market street, and the piece
at the corner Of Park and Chicago
streets.
Many people who have business
houses on Main street called on the
government agent during the after
noon and nearly all of them urged the
selection of one OF the Wisconsin
street pieces of property. The Sim
mons property on Market street
seemed to be the choice of most of the
people for second place.
Mr.. Wettmore left Tuesday for
Waukesha and as soon as he has let
the people of that city have a chance
to argue over sites he will return to
Washington and make a report. He
stated that he thought that his report
would be filed not later than the TWEEN
t1eth Of the month and that the people
would then have thirty days in which
to present further arguments to the
secretary of the treasury. At the end
of the thirty days the owner of the
property will receive notice that his
or her proposal has been accepted and
the deal will be closed at once. Nj.
Wettmore stated that the government
was anxious to start work in Kenosha
with the opening of the spring in or
der to have the building completed
here as soon as possible.

WE can let any or all of the ordin-
airy regulations or ordinances of the
city go by the board at one time or
another without coming to any serious
harm, but the public should be made
to understand that the quarantine
regulations of the city are in force at
all times and against all persons
alike. We cannot afford to have the
general health of the city placed in
jeopardy by the criminal carelessness
or ignorance of any persons whatever,
and the Health Officer will be backed
up by public opinion IN enforcing the
quarantine regulations to the very
letter. His duty in the matter is
plain an6 he would be entirely iusti-
fed in going to any extreme to pre-
vent the spread of contagious diseases
caused by any neglect of ordinary
precautions. Unless all signs fail,
there are going to be enough cases of
typhoid fever and other diseases
caused by drinking impure water, this
winter, to keep the doctors busy, with
out calling on them to take care of an
entirely pfeventable epidemic of con-
tagious diseases.

Shanghai, is safe, according to dis
patch from Washington. During re-

European companions.
A few days ago the report came

been murdered by Chinese mob and
her body mutilated. Communication
was opened with the state depart

ment was set in motion and the
American consul at Shanghai investi-
gated the reported horror.
