State Capital Notes
Weekly Budget Gathered by Our
Special Correspondent at Madison.

Madison.-According to report is
sued by Secretary John M. True of the
state board of agriculture, few farm
crops in Wisconsin this season are to
be equal in yield and quality to the
average of the last few years. '"The
yield of oats and barley as shown
by threshing was" says Secretary
True in his report, ga disappointment
to those who had judged the probable
production from appearances of crops
in the field. Not only is the yield
light, but oats, especially, are of poor
quality. Barley, while better than
oats, is not equal in grade to the
crop of the last two years. Wheat
and rye show an average well up to
that of the last five years. The corn
crop improved rapidly during the
month of August, and was we'll ad-
vanced at the time of the first frost,
about the middle of September. The
weather during the month of Septem-
Der was not calculated to mature the
crop, and indications are that about
Is per cent. of the crop will not be
fully ripened. The potato crop has
been seriously damaged in yield by
blight, and in many locations, subse-
quent rot. Upon light soils the quail
ity is reported as good. Undoubtedly
the crop as a whole will be as profit
able for the farmer as though the
yield were much larger and the price
CORRESPONDENCE decreased. Tobacco
grew rapidly during the last few
weeks prior to harvest, and is one
crop that is better than it was eX-
pected to be. Our estimate of yield
per acre is left over for the November
report. In localities where largely
raised sugar beets, cabbage and beans
are reported as a good crop. Pas
lures are remarkably good for the sea-
son and farm stock feeding upon grass
is in good condition. Our next report
will deal with the yield per acre quail
ity and price of the several farm
crops. Our correspondents report an
estimated yield per acre as follows:
Wheat, 16 bushels; rye, II bushels;
barley, 25 bushels; oats, % bushels /;
tame hay, 15s tons. Conditions OF
crops whose yield has not yet been
determined is given as follows: Corn.
76 per cent; potatoes, Y per cent. ;
tobacco 81 per cent; sugar beets, so
per cent; cabbage, 80 per cent. /;
beans, SO per cent"

FARM JOTTINGS.

/ have seen more than one we'll so
near the barn that the surface water
in time of storm would flow straight
into it. Then the stock would be ex.
pected to drink it. If anything is
a mistake, brethren, it is such thing
as that We all know it.
A long heavy pole stout enough to
hold all the team can draw, chained
to a stump makes a good stump ma.
chine. Hitch the horse to the outer
end and drive the team around the
stump, twisting it. Keep out of the
way, so that if anything breaks no
one will be hurt.
AS fast as you get through using
the different farm tools, put them
away in their place. It is nice to
have a tool house, but If you have
none, you can have particular place
for everything, so that you will not
need to hunt everywhere when you
need some implement.-Farm Journal.
Secure good feet on the horse by
breeding from sires and dams that

feet are being continued by lack Of
care in this regard. A horse is no

horse over to bungler to be shod.
Even if pastures are green it will

Tobacco Men Fix Prices.

At a convention of the tobacco de-
partment of the American Society OF
Equity here the leaf tobacco growers
of Wisconsin fixed a schedule of mini
mum prices for this years crop and
decided that if the middle men de-
cline to pay those prices they will
pool their product and sell it directly
to the manufacturers. The delegates
present pledged themselves and the
growers they represent not to sell
their tobacco for less than the prices
fixed. If growers can get more than
the prices fixed they are at liberty to
do so. The schedule of minimum
prices is as follows: "Best crop, Is
cents per pound; medium crop 12R
cents per pound; poor crop, not in
Guiding trash, ten cents per pound"
This is said to be an increase of about
20 per cent. over the minimum prices
of last year. The convention decided
that if crops are not sold by January
Is next, growers are to organize pools
and handle and sell their tobacco
themselves Pooling warehouses will
ters and committees of growers will
take charge of the handling and sell
ing of the product. Arrangements will
be made whereby a grower will be
able to get an increase of money on
his tobacco as soon as he deposits 1T
at a warehouse, and after it has been
sold he will receive the balance due
him. There were nearly 200 delegates
present at the convention, represent
ing 223 local organizations of the
American Society of Equity. 1t was
said at the convention that the dele
gates present represented about 5000
tobacco growers in the state. The
tobacco department elected the follow
ing officers for the ensuing year:
President, H. E. Holmes, of Milton;
vice president, James G. Hanson, OF
Deerfield; secretary, S. D. Kump, of
Cambridge; treasurer, H. S. Pomeroy,
of Edgerton. James G. Hanson, of
Cambridge, and H. S. Pomeroy, of Ed
gerton, were elected delegates to the
national convention of the society to
be held at Shelbyville, KY, on October
30. Assemblyman w. A. Cernahan, of
Eau Claire, was chairman of the COM
mittee on resolutions. One of the
resolutions adopted urges congress to
pass a law requiring all adulterated
tobacco to be labeled as adulterated.
Mr.. Cernahan delivered a stirring ad-
dress before the convention.

THE TOP SOIL.
Its Value Compared with SubsoiI Not
Well Understood.

The value of top soil as compared
with subsoil is not understood as it
ought to be. If the great contrast
between the two was sufficiently i'm.
pressed upon many, they would use
every reasonable effort to keep sur
face soil in place. 1t may be carried
away by wind or water, especially
the latter. This explains why in SO
many soils the low places are SO
much more productive than the higher
land. Soil and humus have been car
ried downward, leaving the high
lands comparatively unproductive.
Such denudation may be checked ma
terially, if not entirely prevented, by
blowing along the slope, rather than
up and down it, by keeping the land
we'll stocked with grass roots, and by
refraining from working the land as
far as this may be possible during
the season when denudation is most
likely to occur.

She Demands Remarriaqe.

Milwaukee.-Left in German Po-
land when her husband came to this
country IL years ago, divorced with
out her knowledge, succeeded by a
woman who has since divorced the
man, coming to this country at the re-
quest and the expense Of the man
whom she still believed to be her hus-
band, and finding out the truth from
the guests at a big celebration given
in honor of the reunion, these are the
salient points in the unusual matri-
monial experiences of Mrs. Lorenz
Pieprzyk, supplemented by the fact
that she refuses to live with her form
er husband without being remarked
to him.

"Beer" Is Not Booze.

La Crosse-An important verdict
which will affect the temperance and
non-license laws of this and perhaps
other states was rendered when jury
acquitted former Assemblyman A. z.
Hanson, of Mindora, this county, OF
selling intoxicating liquors without a
license.
It was proved that Hanson, known
as "the duke of Mindora,' and VINO
is a leading politician, sold "beeros
after the town went dry. "Beeros" IS
a specially brewed and labeled form
of beer manufactured especially for
dry communities.
The jury decided as "beeros" con
tanned less than two per cent. alcohol
it was not intoxicating and could be
sold as a temperance drink.
The big breweries here were pre-
pairing to make test case in the
event the verdict had been the re-
verse.

Will Not Need Licenses.

State Insurance Commissioner
George e. Beedle sent out a letter to
all banks in the state notifying them
that they will be permitted to con-
tinue collecting premiums for life in
surance companies without taking out
licenses as agents of such companies.
The ruling of the commissioner is in
accordance with an opinion rendered
by the attorney general. 1t was be-
lieved several days ago that under the
laws passed at the last session Of the
legislature banks would be required
to take out agents licenses if they col
lected premiums for insurance com
panies. Many banks have applied for
licenses and some of them forwarded
the necessary fee to the commissioner.
"You are hereby advised" says the
commissioner in his letter to the
banks, chat banks collecting insur-
ance premiums will not be required to
procure licenses from this department
provided they make no charge or re-
ceive no other compensation than the
usual and customary exchange"

honored with annual invitations 10 the
court.
Although her majesty has Russian
blood in her veins on her grandmeth.
er's side, and is autocratic in some
directions, yet she is democratic in
others, and has an utter adherence
of undue ceremony and statecraft.
She loves the patriarchal simplicity
of the inhabitants of the old Dutch
yiIlages-the costumes of which she
often wears-and is fond of paying
visits to such, Scheveningen more e.
pecially heing honored in this respect.
This is an exceedingly quaint place,
within three or four miles of The
Hague. The queen played on it's sands
in her childhood, and it is favorite
drive when she is staying at The
Hague palace. On the other side or
The Hague her majesty has small
palace known as "The house in the
wood" This was built in 1647, and
has been made famous for all time as
the scene of the first peace confer
ence.
The Hague is, of course, the polit1.
cal capital, and in the city is the Win
ter palace, where the majority OF the
court ceremonies are held. Whatever
be the occasion, the company always
take up their position in the ball
room or other saloon before the queen
appears.
At Amsterdam, however-Whlch IS
the commercial capital, and rejoices IN
an eight-days' court every April-the
queen does not take part in the balls.
She merely sits on the dias at the
end of the room and watches the 9TH
erS,
Whatever ceremony or function her
majesty may be attending in any
place, she is most punctual in her
coming and going, and she brings this
to bear upon all her state business.
She insists upon everything being
placed before her regularly and pune
tually to be dealt with at once. She
signs nothing without thoroughly I'M
derstanding it, and her firm will and
decided judgment have more than
once brought her into conflict with
her ministers; but she generally has
her way, and the people say the coun-
try does not suffer in consequence.
Everyone knows that Queen Will
helmina is much beloved by her SUBJ
jects, and it only needs the birth Of
a son and heir to the throne to COM
plete the satisfaction of queen and
subjects alike.
