The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm
p%ortance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only n which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffener
makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result of perfect
finish, equal to that when the goods
were new.

Council Proceedings.

The regular March meeting of the
city council was held Tuesday night
with all present but Aid. BROKER.
After tie council had been called to
order the complaint of Mrs. Selma
Knoble was heard. She asked the
council to build a sidewalk on Mon
roe street past the blacksmith shop
south of her place or require the
street to be kept free from obstruc-
tons. The following bills were then
taken up and allowed:
81. Henkel & Co.. Streeter aid
SIS IS; Vinegar aid, 25cts.; ZIegler
Bros, SIS. IS; Palmer Berg g Co.,
justices docket, $500; DR.. c. A.
Critchlow, SIS so; Electric Light
Co., $571.1O; T. F. Orion, coal,
$144.45; j. E. Barnett & Son, $780,
rs; Grant County Herald, $3.50.
No action was taken on the ques-
ton as to the aid of the Wallace
family
Further consideration wa J had on
the communication from the Wis
consin Telephone Company in re-
gard to the fire alarm system alarm
box in that company's central Office.
A form of contract to be entered
into by the city and all the various
operators of the company was read,
and the council decided to enter
into such contract. The operator
who turns in an alarm is to be paid
scots. by the city for each alarm.
Aid. Henkel asked that attention
be publicly called to the fact that
all bills against the city should be
presented monthly.
Aid. Henkel also asked for action
on the sewer question.
The state law provides chat at the
March meeting a report of the
board of public works be submitted
to the council, with the provisions
definitely stated as to where the
sewer appropriations are to be ex-
pended. If this is not done st the
March meeting it requires a three
fourths vote of the council to decide
at any future meeting rs to whore
the sewers to be built this year are
to be placed. This means that it
will require the vote of six alder
man to decide the placing of sewers,
while a majority could have decided
at the March meeting. The hoard
of public works submitted no re-
commentators on this work, how
ever.

PAST POLICY A MISTAKEN ONE
But the Railways Have Done Lot for
the Country.

But the Railways Have Done Lot for
the Country.
"Our policy in the past has been a
mistaken one, but it cannot be said
that we have neglected our service to
the public. When one considers what
the railroads have done to develop this
nation we cannot believe that the rail
roads have been anything but benef-
cial to the nation. The marvellous de-
velopment of the country has been due
to a very large degree to the enter
prise of its railroads. Since the time
we took hold Of the system Of rail-
roads of which / am the head the sum
Of S250,0O0,O00 has been expended in
rebuilding the roads. This has all been
done since 1900. AS another instance
Of What the railroads are doing to add
to the general prosperity of the nation
I'll tell you that the roads of which
] an the head purchase about 1000
600 tons of steel rails yearly, and dur
ing that period we purchased about
100000 ties.
"-All this adds to the welfare of the
nation, and the development work
which the railroads have done has in
some cases, AS it now shown, resulted
in the building up Of so large traf-
fic that they are unable to handle it.
Combination really benefits the public,
The public may think otherwise, but
it will learn the real truth in time.
That time will come sooner if COM
binations are legalized. / believe in
control and regulation, as / declared
before the interstate commerce COM
mission, hut l think within the limit Of
such control corporations ought to be
allowed to combine as they find it
necessary or beneficial"

agreements. In this way there had

road men. and the public naturally

New Worid'a Records of Wisconsin
Cow.

The highest authentic record for
the production of butter fat in seven
days and in thirty days tests has just
been established by Colantha Fourth's
! Johanna a Holstein-Fresi COW on
the farm OF w. J. Gillett, Rosendale,
| Wis, The tests we're conducted Under
the direction of the University of
Wisconsin Agriculture Experiment
station officials. In order to insure &C.
curacy, retests or two duplicate tests
were conducted by Roy T. Harris, as
sistant in dairy tests at the college OF
agriculture, and Professor +. W. Woll
of the University of Wisconsin Expert
ment station, VINO was present at the
farm to satisfy himself that ali weigh
| ings and tests made by the supervi-
sors were accurate, and that no IRE
gularities we're present in TIE feeding
or handling of the COW. The results
of the tests, which commenced Dec.
| "A '06, and closed Feb. "a, 07' show a
production for sixty-three days Of
| 1926 pounds Of milk containing
217207 pounds of butter fat. The
highest worlds record for seven days
was made Feb 6 to Is. when the tests
showed $751; pounds of milk contain
! ing 28.176 pounds Of fat, an average of
! 49, per cent. The worlds record for
thirty days was esta blished in the
period from Jan. q to Feb. 20, when
the total production reached 2,o73.6
pounds of milk containing 10 833
| pounds of fat, an average Of 800 per
cent The largest milk YIELD t,r one
day was that of Feb. 1917, when the
great COW gave los pounds of milk
containing 1867 pounds of fat, an
average test of 3.45. The largest pro-
duction of butter fat for one day was
on Feb. 9-1O, when she had to her
credit 1854 pounds from 90-6 pounds
of milk, testing 81 equalto 5.34 pounds
of commercial butter.
The seven day and thirty day record
made by this COW are the highest
authenticated records for the produc-
ton of butter fat for the periods stated
for any COW. The seven day record is
three quarters of pound higher than
the previous record held for the past
two years by the Holstein COW Aggie

One of our good farmers was
telling on the streets yesterday a
conversation he CHANGED to hear
between a young boy in his teens
and Christian Scientist. 1t appears
the Scientist came across a small
boy sitting under an apple tree
doubled up with pain. Ny little
man." he said, what is the mat
teri" ''I ate some green apples, +"
moaned the boy, and oh, how /
ache!" 'You don't ache" answered
the follower of Mrs. Eddy; you
only think So" The boy looked
up in establishment at such a state
ment, and then replied in a most
positive manner: That's all right
you may think so. but I've got in
side information.
We often wonder why il il 50
many young men can be seen loaf
ing upon our streets until late
hour Of night. Many of them are
from our best homes. The fathers
Of these young men, many Of them
at least, are numbered among our
best citizens. If their COW or their
horse or oven their favorite dog
was away from home after dark
they would be out on a search, but
their own children can roam the
town all night with apparent no
effort being made to find them.
The boy seems to be turned loose at
tender age to wander at will into
the paths of sin and vice and then
we wonder where all our tramps
and worthless specimens of human
ity come from. It is a rerretta bic
fact that too many OF them come
from seed terminated in good homes
and then sOwn in a careless manner
upon our streets and back alleys.
Reader, is your hoy wasting his
time upon our streets? III 50 had
you not, at least. look after him as
carefully at nightfall as you would

intimate that this evil exists to a

SEEMS TO SEE LIGHT

Have Taught Him Something
He Didn't Know Before.
Ready Now to Cooperate in Making
the Situation Better-What the
Roads Have Done for
&a.as the Country.

New York, March ST am ready
to make the advancement of scheme
Of cooperation between the govern
ment and the railways my chief inter
est,' said e. III. Hartman, president
Of the Union Pacific railroad on re
turning from Washington. 1--WE men
at the head of great corporations are
coming to a better understanding OF
what the government expects of us. We
are getting the point of view OF the
administration. l am of the opinion
that the administration is beginning
to realize that it has been little too
radical in its attitude toward the rail
roads, and / look to see its opposition
take on more of the spirit Of co-opera-
tiCn."
Their Foresight Was Poor.
Speaking of agitation against cor
porate wealth, he said: "They - we
all of us, ought to have considered the
possible effects of this agitation be
fore it was begun, or before condi-
tons that made it's growth possible
were allOWCu 10 continue. IL we udu
ali met on common ground and CO.
operated for our mutual benefit no
body would be worrying over the sit
uation as it is today. We all made a
mistake in this. / realize the mistake.
N" I'm more than willing to give
my support to such process Of ell
lightenment. I'm ready to make the
advancement of such a scheme of co
operation my chief interest. ! Surely
there could be few conditions imagin-
able that would be of wider public
benefit than to eliminate hostile fric-
ton.

build up a strong harmonious relation
ship between themselves and with the
government and the public. This mat
ter had been left to subordinate Off

relations have been completely neglect
ed. Now we must take the matter in
our own hands in order to bring about
