OPERATION FOR STRANGULATED
HERNIA.

DR.. Noer was called to Laona
Sunday to operate on bad case
of straugulated hernia. The pa
tient was a man in the employ Of
the Connor Company and had
been brought in from one of the
camps.
DR.. Elliott was called to attend
the man, who had been suffering
for two days, and recognizing at
once his serious condition, advis.
ed immediate operation as the
only possibility of saving the pa.
tients life. DR.. Noer was sent
for and operated at once. Not
much encouragement was given,
as the man was nearly pulseless
when placed on the operating
table and the intestines were
found to be in very bad condi-
ton. AS a result of the opera.
ton the patient rallied and hopes
are now entertained for his re.
covery.

ASSOCIATION.

At meeting of representa-
tives from the Northern Wiscon-
sin counties, held at Hayward
last Thursday, an organization
was formed, the North Wiscon-
sin Development Association,
having as its object the promo
tion of immigration. The form
of organization is that of a feder-
alton, being a union of local de-
velopment associations in the
various counties 1t is an out
growth of the North Wisconsin
Farmers Association, which for
several years maintained b e

organized on a different basis
and broader in its scope.
Geo. E. Kuntz, of Ashland,
was chosen president, and d. w.
Maloney, of Glen Flora, secreta,
ry, of the convention. A consti-
tuition was adopted, and the di-
rectors were instructed to incor-
pCrate the association. A meet
ing of directors to perfect the
incorporation, elect permanent
officers and complete details of
plans of work will be held ut
Ashland early. in December.
Commissioner of immigration
A. D. Campbell was. present at
the meeting, and outlined the
work which his department is
doing, also the plans for future
work. He expressed himself as
heartily in sympathy with the
aims and plans of the associa-
ton, anG promised all assistanc )
he could give.
E. T. Wheelock, Secretary of
the Wisconsin immigration and
Development Association, also
attended the meeting, furnishing
great assistance in the way of
suggestion and advice as to
methods, and stimulating en-
thusiasm.
A resolution was adopted by
the convention approving the
methods of the Board of Immi-
grafton, and warmly commend

of the state. He will also carry
exhibits of grasses and grains,
and will occupy his time, aside
from the lectures, in distributing
literature and doing other adver-
tising work.
Great enthusiasm prevailed
thruout the meeting, and there
can be no doubt but much effec
tive work will be accomplished

FORESTRY BUREAU RULES
OVER MILLIONS OF ACRES
uyAsHINGToN.-The Forestry Bu-

WASHINGTON.-The Forestry Bu-
w reau, which now administers
more acres of land than any other
institution in the world and is the
landlord branch of the Federal Gov
ernment, has just compiled its report
covering statistics Of grazing on the
public lands of the great West. The
figures will give some idea of the scale
on which Uncle Sam has gone into the
land business. and are very comfort
ing because of their very size, for IL
the existing policy is unmolested the
vast areas of forest and mountain now
embraced in reserves will for all time
be administered in the interest of the
entire people.
There are now more than 156, ,000,-
600 acres of land in the national for
ests. Grazing is permitted, but under
strict regulations, made in order that
the grass may not be destroyed by
overfeeding. This, by the way, is
what has caused most of the friction
in the West Owners of focks and
herds in that section of the country
grazing without restrictions of any
kind. Many of them in time came to
look upon the public domain as their
very own, In an important sense, and
they were quick to resent any effort
on the part Of the government to con-
serve either forest or grazing land.
But this friction is rapidly disappear
ing, as the western people see that
without such conservation the range
and forest In time will be destroyed.
A glance at the regulations govern
ing grazing on the government forests
will give the reader very good idea
Of the government forest policy and
how It is being administered. Stock
men who desire to make use OF the
range apply for permits stating the
kind of stock they have, the quantity
of It and the location of the range they
want. The forest officers then proceed
to make allotments, apportioning the
available pasture among the appli-
cants on as equitable basis as prac-
ticable.
Sometimes stockmen who live near
forests or have stock near them allow
that stock to drift across lines. If this
is done carelessly or wilfully 1t is con-
sidered trespass and the offender is
subject to fine and may also be sued
for damages. The number of tres
pass cases last year was 1S3, of which
1853 were settled out of court. The
sum collected for these trespasses ag-
gregated $5,576. These trespass cases
have been another source of friction
between the government and the
grazers. 1t is difficult for the west
to realize that, the country now being
thickly populated, it is no longer pos
sible to maintain the old time free
range without destroying that range.
The entire system Of permits and fees
is for the purpose Of enabling the
government to know that the range
within the reserves is not being over
fed.

a few sores developed, then the third
boy took it. For the first three months

TRACTION AUTOS TO BE
USED IN WORK ON CANAL

r RACTION automobiles are the
i latest thing for the Panama canal,
and their use, according to officials
of the canal in Washington, presages
the doom of the ancient and time
honored railroad velocipede, now used
by track walkers and employees in
charge of switch lights in sparsely
populated communities. II is not be-
yond the realm Of probability, in the
opinion of some of them. that the run
ming of automobiles on railroad tracks
will become a fad II the railroads will
stand for It,
The purchasing agent Of the COM
mission has advertised for two such
machines for use on the railroad
across the Isthmus of Panama cap
able of carrying ten persons each and
able to make a speed Of 40 miles an
hour on a level track with the engine
running at normal speed. The en-
CINE must be stout enough to climb
grade of eight per cent, and to in
crease their speed to 25 per cent.
above normal. or. in other words, to
make so miles an hour. The car must
burn ordinary stove gasoline and have
a capacity to go 125 miles at full
speed and load. II is the purpose of
the commission to place these cars
In the inspection department for the
use OF the chief engineer and his as
sistants, who now have to rely on
passing passenger, freight, dirt or
special trains in inspecting the work
along the canal.

NEWSPAPERS FAST EATING
UP OUR SPRUCE FORESTS

r HE rapidity with which the news
paper is eating up the American
spruce forests has caused some alarm
among officials of the government,
who have been looking into the thing.
The conversion Of spruce timber into
paper is going on at the rate OF 1,76b,-
900 feet for every working day In the
year. And most of this timber IL cut
in the United States, although few
wood pulp logs are imported from
Canada.
During 1905 the newspaper demand
alone consumed 100000 tons of manu-
factured white paper. This was one
third of the output Of all the paper
mills in the country. To make 1t re-
drew 100000 in wages. The mills
used raw material amounting to 1,300.-
900 cords, representing the cut Of
about 100000 acres.
The present tariff on lumber causes
this enormous drain to fall almost en-
tirely upon the forests of the United
States. 1t has been suggested that
it would be wise political and eco.
nomic move to remove this lumber
duty, and let the paper mills begin to
eat into the almost limitless forests of
Canada.
Incidentally the price of paper
would drop some, and the paper trust
would not have quite the monopoly on
affairs which II has to-day.
Increased size of newspapers and
magazines is laid by government ex-
perts to the introduction of the type
setting machine. In 1890 newspapers
and periodicals averaged 81 pages
each, on basis of weight, and In
1900 sc pages; 1905 they came to s.5
pages.
During the 25 years from 1880 to
1905 the number Of newspapers and
periodicals of all classes in the United
States practically doubled. During
that time 10000 publications were
added. During the last decade the
number of morning newspapers in
creased IL per cent, while the num-
Der of evening newspapers increased
11.3 per cent.
During the last 20 years the evening
newspapers have increased more rap
idly than morning newspapers A
hundred years ago there were 359
newspapers in the United States, hay.
ing an aggregate circulation of 22..
321,7OO copies per annum.

myself from the last, by offering to

which ! doubt not but to give you

very considerable; am sure they have
appeared so to me, and made many an

GOVERNMENT TO SUPPRESS
TRAFFIC In GIRL SLAVES
NOT
WANTED

A SYSTEMATIC effort is to be
"A made by the bureau of immigra-
tion to put an end to what Is popularity
known as "the white slave traffic"
which, 1t is asserted, has been con-
Quoted, especially in cities on the
Atlantic seaboard, for long, time.
On recommendation of Robert
Watchorn, immigration commissioner
at Ellis Island, New York, Miss Helen
NJ Bulls has been appointed an i'm.
migration inspector for the particular
purpose of developing information re.
garding this traffic. Miss Bulls re.
sently has been connected with the
Travellers Aid Society, and has done
much work along philanthropic AID
sociological lines.
Commissioner Watchorn says that
despite the scrutiny with which i'm.
mig, ants are examined as to their
right to enter the United States many
women Of non-English speaking races
are being imported for immoral pur-
poses. The method by which this is
accomplished is so well devised that
the victims of the importers nearly
always avoid detection by reason of
the thorough coaching they receive
prior to their embarkation for this
country.
Mr.. Watchorn suggests that Miss
Bulls is in position to furnish the
department conclusive proof of the
existence Of the traffic. This would
enable the immigration officials not
only to deport those who have been
brought unlawfully into the country,
but also to punish those who are re-
sponsible for this sort of immigra
tion.

FOUND OUT.
A Trained Nurse Made Discovery.

No one is in better position to know
the value Of food and drink than a
trained nurse.
Speaking Of coffee, nurse of Wilkes
Barre, Pa, writes: Il used to drink
strong coffee myself, and suffered
greatly from headaches and indiges-
ton. While on visit to my brothers
had a good chance to try Postum
Food Coffee. for they drank 1t alto
gether in place Of ordinary coffee. In
two weeks after using Postum found
/ was much benefited and finally my
headaches disappeared and also the
indigestion.
Naturally have since used Postum
among my patients, and have noticed
a marked benefit where coffee has been
left of and Postum used.
II observed a curious fact about
Postum when used among mothers Il
greatly helps the flow of milk in cases
where coffee Is inclined to dry 1t up,
and where tea causes nervousness.
II find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly. They most
always serve II before It has been
boiled long enough. 1t should be boiled
15 to 20 minutes after boiling begins
and served with cream, when It Is cer-
tainly delicious beverage" Read
