Ex-senator Arnold, of Trempleau
county, while in attendance at the
convention Of the American Society
of Equity, took occasion to visit the
Wood County Normal school. He
was accompanied by VIM. Hill, of
Baraboo, also delegate to that con-
vention. Both gentlemen are inter-
ested in the County Normal schools,
and it is quite probable that
Trempleau county will estab-
fish one as soon as the legislature acts
upon the recommendation of the
governor.

time the city authorities mean Lusi'
ness and everybody will be treated

The Montgomery advertiser., 1907-02-22

The Albany Herald has something to say on a matter that Is of interest here as we'll as in South Georgia, and it's remarks apply as well to this section as to its own. It says:
 Sweet potatoes are bringing 35 and 40 cents a peck in Bainbridge and The Tribune calls attention to the fact that there are few better money crops than these ever salable tubers. The Tribune is right. The sweet potato has been sadly nglected in Georgia, as have a, numbe~ of other food crops, but ap-' preciation of it's virtues Is rapidly de- veloping. Thore is never glut of the sweet potato market, and as the de- mand promises to greatly exceed the supply for an indefinite time prices wifi not decline. The farmer who plants sweet potatoes as money crop makes no mistake.
 We do not copy this for the purpose of offering advice and instruction to the farmers, but merely as matter of information. Prices of potatoes in Montgomery are about as they are in Albany or Bainbridge, and the supply is short Can't our farmer friends make the supply greater and at req sonable prices? Sweet potatoes are mighty good things to have about the house.
