PAYS PER CENT. ON DEPOSITS
FIRST NUMBER.

The Y. NJ. G. A. entertainment course
for the winter of 1907-08 will open in
the opera house tomorrow evening,
when the Dunbar Male Quartette and
Bell Ringers will appear here.
The company is now known from
coast to coast, and is considered the
most novel and versatile company ever
before the public. 1t combines male
quartette which competent critics have
pronounced equal TO the best. whose
repertoire includes songs for every
taste, and who play such music, upon a
peal of more than one hund red of the
finest English hand bells ever made, as
has never been played upon bells be-
fore. The company also offers an in
strumental trio capable of giving a de-
lightful recital of chamber music,
'cellist of national reputation, and a
clever reader of character sketches.
Such is the Dunbar company, and if
the plaudits of the entire lyceum public
have any significance, they speak for
the excellence of these features. They
can please any audience. Ralph Dun
bar, the violoncellist, is n special fea-
ture of the company. He is an artist
who has won pronounced success as a
soloist with the late Jessie Bartlett
Davis aud other artists, and, as one
critic has said, "has enough music in
him to make an entire quartette.
Harry Dunbar is natural reader and
humorist, who has never been spoiled
by any school of oratory, and his char
acter work gives pleasing variety to
the program.

in operation again about Dec. LIST, it is
the intention to put on two crews. BY
that time it is expected large amount

WILL DRAIN MARSH.

A contractor is at work laying a
sewer in the eastern section of the c;.y
the purpose of which is mainly to drs;n
the Bells addition. That part of tho
city lying east of the st. Paul Ry. Co. s
tracks, known as the Bells farm, has
always been marsh. There has al
ways been wild, rank growth of
marsh grass and at nearly all times in
the year the land has been of no value
for agricultural or other purposes. 1t
is thought that if a good sewer system
is built through the land and system
of tiling made, that the land can be
thoroughly drained. Pipe Is and 20
inches in diameter will be laid from
Logan street south through the farm
and west to connect with the Canal
street sewer Streets have been laid
out and turnpiked through the addition.

FACTORY OF THE WAUSAU
BOX AND LUMBER CO.
Will Begin Making Boxes Next Week-Plant Burned
Four Months Ago Replaced by One More
Modern in Arrangement

/ inch shaft had been run from the
engine room distance OF IS feet,
reaching well into the basement of the
main building. There was the adjust
ment of belts and pulleys and every
thing to be put in perfect order, this
was completed at about 4:30 O'Clock
and at that Eour Mr.. Cinnamon opened
the valve and the immense drive wheel,
which is sixteen feet in diameter, COM
menced to turn, noiselessly and with
the utmost ease. 1t was triumph for
the engineer and he was congratulated
by the crowd who had gathered to see
the big machine start up. The whistle
was blown and it was joyful sound to
those living in the vicinity of the factory
who had not heard it for four months.
The company has built a large,
roomy office, on the banks of the Wis
consin river, 200 feet away from the
factory. 1t contains three large rooms
and fire proof vault and on the south
side is large store room all of which
is to be heated by steam.
The aim of the company has been to
separate the buildings and lumber, so
that in case of tlre, everything could be
saved but the building, perhaps, in
which the fire might originate. Thus
the Office is 200 feet from the factory;
the stable some 800 feet from any other
building; the power house and factory
are separated by twenty feet. The
company has large stock of lumber
on hand and this is not piled all in one
yard but it is divided into two yards
separated by / 600 feet.
The shipping facilities of the COM
pany cannot be excelled. Both the
G. M. & ST. Paul and e. q N. w. Ry.
companies have tracks running to the
factory and large platforms have been
built on the north side from which cars
can be loaded with ease. The factory
is so constructed that it can be en-
larged at any time at nominal ex-
pense. When the grounds are leveled
up and put in good condition, the COM
pany will have plant and site of
which to be proud.
Messrs. Turner and Scholfield are to
be congratulated not only upon their
fine manufacturing institution but for
the quick time in which they have COM
pleted the work. 1t was thought for
time that they would not rebuild.
That they have rebuilt means that $50
men will continue to be given steady
work and some $4,000 be paid out for
labor in Wausau each month of the
year.

THE FARMERS SALVATION.
Farming a Very Complex Business
But Get Things Straight.

In short trip of Ga miles down the
Central of Georgia railroad we saw at
least 5000 bushels of cottonseed piled
out in the field preparatory to being
spread upon the land to be sown in
wheat. This is something we have
not seen SO extensively for ten years
past, says the editor of the South
ern Cultivator. We farmers will learn
after awhile that there are more ways
than one of doing thing. Great will
be the results. Whenever we can not
get satisfactory price for our prod
ucts, we must learn to so utilize them
as to yield us this price. Herein liet
our salvation. While we are far from
disparaging our organization, it Is not
all hue and cry" that is going to
materially and lastingly benefit us:
but 1t is the practical solution of
these many details that go to make
up our complex business. Farming
is avery complex business. but one
by one we are getting the lines prop
erly Strengthened out, and firmly into
our hands.

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
What Can a Farmer Raise That Will
Bring Cash Beside cotton7

According to the light before us at
present, the most important question
for each farmer to settle is: What
can raise that will bring me in
cash, besides my cotton? In no Sec
ton Of our country, says an agricul-
tural writer, do we find the farmers
prosperous who depend upon one crop.
Too many contingencies beset both
the growing and the selling. We have
had years of experience along this
line with our cotton. While we have
succeeded in wrestling a fair price for
the last three seasons, we all see
what struggle 1t Is; and If crop con-
ditions were to be against us, and we
had nothing to sell except cotton, just
think of the handicap put upon US by
spring our crop and borrowing money
upon it. The farmer who has home
supplies and something else to sell,
that will bring in cash throughout the
year, has far the advantage. In fact,
we think you can lay it down as a
rule, that wherever you find truly
successful farmer, you will find one
that makes his farm self-sustaining
and raises his cotton as a surplus.
Those men whom we have met who
are making the best money Invariably
are making 1t out OF other crops than
cotton.

FARMER AND PLANTER
a sourHsRN EDITOR SURPRISED
Some Things He Learned From Farm
ers' Institute Workers.

A Southern agricultural editor, dur
Ing his visit to the American Associa-
ton of Farmers Institute Workers at
Baton Rouge, La. talked with Mrs.
/. s. Raymond, of Sidney, Ill. She
said: "My husband could not come;
he was very busy getting in his corn.
He owns 600-acre farm and has made
a very fine crop. He has only two
hired men to assist him. but they are
very competent help. One husks lis
bushels of corn every day for his
work and the other 80 bushels" What
struck US, said the editor, was: First,
the accurate knowledge these north
ern people have. We venture to say
there will not be reader of this ar
ticle who will know what days labor
husking corn really is, but we feel
safe In saying our negro labor would
not accomplish more than half this
amount. Second, see how few labor.
ers it takes to grow some crops COM
pared with others. We heard the
statement made that any western man
could make from 1000 to 5000 BUSH
els of corn by his own labor. The way
we do 1t In the south, 1t would take
a dozen or more. Let us look around
and see If We can not learn to do
more effective work.
Then again the editor says: We
were talking to the president of the
association, Mr.. G. c. Creelman, of
Guelph, Ontario. We told him I'VE
certainly admired the Canadian farm
ers, and had always wondered how
they could succeed so well up In their
cold climate with such short sum-
mers and long winters" WELL" he
replied, I'VE are little proud of our
record. 1t comes from intelligent and
well-directed effort Every laborer in
Canada succeeds in wrestling from
the soil an annual product of a thou
sand dollars, while you down south
only succeed in getting a return of
one hundred dollars per hand" This
was coming down on us pretty hard,
walls the editor; with all our boosted
advantages to only come within one
tenth Of their yield. We think the
south will average up a little better
since the statistics we're given that
Mr.. Creelman made his comparison
by, but We know we are still far be-
hind.

A few sheep should be kept on most
OF our farms and we would not miss
their feed in winter, and they would
destroy great many briars and
weeds in summer. Where the stom.
ach worm, scab and dogs can be con-
trolied there is no live stock that
will pay near the profit of sheep. One
man In Illinois reports a profit Of
1905 from seven acres OF corn with
rape sown at last cultivation fed to
sheep. Show us seven acres Of cot
ton that will net that much and leave
80 per cent of the fer.lizing value of
the crop ON the land?
