ON CHEESE AND BUTTER
Number of Institutions Making Dairy
Product Now In Wis
consin.

The News has been handed a table
showing the number of cheese factories
in the state of Wisconsin, as follows:
Cheese factories 1875
CfeamerleS. .94l
Combined. 253
Skimming stations ................3 81
The increase recently has been great
er in cheese factories. Wisconsin has
gained an enviable reputation for cheese
making and holds the top .of the mar
ket.
The News is not champion of either
branch of industry over the other. 1t
seems to us that the one you have
is the one to keep or that the one you
can get is the one to go after.
1t is the experience of recent years
that the dairy, and the dairy alone,
will sustain very high prices in farm
lands, and Rusk county farmers who
want to see their holdings advance in
value, should encourage in every pos
sible way the butter and cheese indus
tries.

Savannah Board of Education Raises

SAVANNAH. Ga. November 4.-The
board Of education has decided to dismiss
George Yugama, the Japanese boy who
was recently admitted to the night school
Yugama was admitted two weeks ago
while Supt. Otis Ashmore of the public
school system was absent from the city.
AS soon as Mr. Ashmore returned and
learned that the japanese lad had been
admitted he pointed out that 1t was a
breaking of the racial line, which could
not be done in the south. The board of
education took Mr.. Ashmore's view and
the Japanese boy will be dismissed

Terror to Warships.
There is much interest in an invention
which. it is claimed. is destined to revo-
lutionize sea warfare. The device is that
of an engineer al Muelheinl-on Ruhr
named iWeidemann, and it will shortly be
given ofhcial demonstration before the
German admiralty authorities. The inven-
ton consists Of a motor boat twenty-five
feet long. which is designed to take the
place of torpedo boats. From it can be
launched huge projectiles, which, under
their own power and at terrific speed, can
hurl themselves either over or under water
for distance of many miles and strike a
given object with unerring accuracy. The
inventor claims that his boat can operate
wholly beyond the range of the enemy S
guns or vision. while its projectiles can
be steered backward. or. if desired,
brought back to the point of discharge.
The new 2O,OOO-ton turbine cruiser e. is
to be in commission in four years and is
to cost 100000 Her armor and arma-
ment will rival that of the new Dread

engines. There ale now several firms in

the Norddeutsche Lloyd. for the purpose
OF developing the Zoelly system of tur-
bines.
