THE OLD TIME MILKMAN
His Day Is Past and It's Now Milk in a
Clean Bottle Delivered at Your
Door.

Another old-time landmark disap-
peared; another familiar character
gone the way of oblivion. The sol;-
tarV milkman with the bell has ceased
TO lure the maid or housewife to the
curbstone for the family's daily milk
supply. The call for purity and health
in the milk traffic has sounded his
doom; the last peals of his bell were
death kneil. It's now on the era of
milk in clean bottle.
Residents of Wauwatesa, even those
who are not "old settlers" we'll re-
member the good old fashioned way of
buying milk. One cared little where
it came from or whether the proverbial
pump helped to swell the milkman's
output. One bought milk as matter
of habit. That's all there was to it. No
questions were asked and the watchful
eye OF the law was not IN evidence.
An excellent illustration of modern
methods applied TO the distribution of
so important necessity to life as milk
is afforded residents of this suburb.
who should find much comfort in
knowing that they have at their dispo-
sal the services of one of the best equip
ed organizations of it's kind in the
comfy. 1900 Milwaukee homes to-
day are being supplied pasteurized
milk by the Gridley Dairy company in
manner that easily explains the phe-
nomenal exI ansion of an enterprise
that plays an important part in the
lives of more than go. 900 people. This
firm today has seventy-one delivery
wagons in active operation each day.
Its monthly output is one million bot
ties of milk and cream.
The Gridley Dairy Co conducts one
of the best equipped pasteurizing
plants in the country. The firm is pre-
pared to make prompt and efficient de-
liveries to residents of this suburb.

The Homeseeker,s Opportunity.

Washington, D. c.
Special to The Wauwatosa News:
In northern Wyoming, IS miles east
of the Yellowstone National Park, 300
farms varying in size from 40 to l6o
acres have recently been thrown open
TO entry and settlement under the Re
elamation Act. This tract of about
IL, 900 acres constitutes what is known
as the first unit of the Shoshone irri-
cation project.
The farms are obtainable under the
Homestead Law. subject to the charges
of actual cost of supplying water to
the land. This charge has been fixed
at S45 per acre, payable in not less than
Ave nor more than ten annual install
ments. LII addition to this the settler
is required to pay an annual fee for
maintenance and operation OF 81 per
acre. The first instalment of IS so per
acre is due and payable Mt the time
application is made Tor water right for
any farm unit. The second instalment
will be due on or before December /,
1909, thus giving early settlers an OPP
portunity of securing two crops before
the second payment becomes due
The elevation is about 4,400, feet
above sea level, and the temperature
seldom goes above 95 degrees in sum
mer or below zero during the winter
months. The valley is sheltered by
mountain ranges on every side, and no
billiards., cyclones or other severe
storms ever occur there.
The crops that can be grown on the
Shoshone project are those common to
the temperate zone. Alfalfa, wheat,
oats, barley, timothy, potatoes, sugar
beets, and all other crops produced in
the states of the Mississippi Valley of
the same latitude are grown here.
Wheat of excellent quality averages 40
bushels to the acre oats average So to
60 bushels, and potatoes weld $50 to
900 bushels per acre. Sugar beets con-
tain large percentage of saccharine
matter and beet sugar factory is pro-
jected for this project as soon as the
acreage settled is large enough to war
rant it. AT present the beets are ship
ped to the factory at Billings, Mont.
Hardy varieties of apples, pears, plums,
cherries, and small fruits may be sue
cessfully grown. Large numbers Of
cattle and sheep Craze on the lands
surrounding the project, and there
will always be a home market for hay.
The settlers from the Mississippi Val
ley who took up farms this spring have
been uniformly successful, having har.
vested good crops on the new land

ROUTE OF SPRECKELS ROAD
Will Be Entirely In American Terri
 tory If Line Is Found Practicable.

The announcement made in the
 Spreckels paper-the Union-that in building the road to Yuma the com
 pany desires to keep entirely within .the United States, if possible" will
 be received with great satisfaction by . the people in this southwestern cor
 ner who are depending on John D.
 Spreckels for the opening up of the
 great commercial highway that is des- tined to make San Diego the gate way of Southern California, Arizona
 and much of the country beyond.
 Spreckels, as the builder of the road, could hardly be expected to car Try it through American territory und-
 CT exceedingly difficult conditions and heavy expense, if such conditions ex- listed, while an easy and cheaper road could be run parallel with the border line through Mexican territory, but the people have certainly looked to him to give the route through his own country every reasonable preference. The fond hopes of some that the boundary line will yet move further south is not within the outside range of possibility, therefore the intention to keep, if at all practicable, the great road to the east on this side of the present boundary will be genuinely Appreciated.
 In answer to criticisms regarding the progress of operations in road
 building and surveying, the railroad authorities say that work is being
 pushed as fast as possible. Over a
 million and quarter is the amount
 already expended for right of way,
 terminals and in road surveys. The grade proposed through National City has just received the approval of the
 local board of trustees and everything
 is being got in shape for a good com mencement and quick finish.-San
 Diego News.

sQUATTERs DISCOURAGED.
Case Against Agent, Who Fired Them
 From Excess Lands, Dismissed.

The charge of grand larceny against w. P Moore, agent of the Wores ranch, was dismissed by Justice Nice, at Brawley, on motion of the District Attorney, and "squatting" on the ranch was discouraged thereby.
 A few months ago, in the absence of the squatters on the Wores ranch, their tents, guns, provisions and uten- sils, were all removed and deposited along the road on the east side of the Alamo river, in Mo- g. where they re- Fmained undiscovered by the owners for several days. w. P. Moore, agent of the ranch owners, was arrested on the charge of grand larceny.
 For nearly two years, says the Braw- ley News, squatters have made life miserable for the land holders on the Wores ranch. Thousands of dollars have been spent in ejectments and there have been several lawsuits. The trouble arose over conflict in the des- CT1pClOu Ol IHc ldllu dllQ Juo OuuoSC and Imperial Land Co., surveys, and the fact that the owners neglected to improve their land, to any great ex- tent, save in the past few months, and that a number of claims were operat- ed under one management, giving ground for suspicion of fraud. As the land is commonly known as "eXcess, " and no filing could be accepted, jump CTS have from time to time endeavored to secure possession, by holding 1t down until description should be furnished by the government. Much of the land jumping, which at most is not of any great moment in the valley, has arisen from ignorance of the provisions of the desert land law, which enables settler to claim as a desert filing a tract of unsurveyed, or as it is commonly called in the Imperial Valley, excess land. In this manner it is possible to hold excess land without actual residence, and the squatter has absolutely no chance at law against a claimant who has com piled so far as possible with the re- quirements.

When Explosives Explode.

A popular notion that explosives will
"go off" by any simple method is
wrong. Many of the most powerful
explosives imaginable may be kicked
about, may be set on fire or may be
shot out Of gun, and unless the prop
er agency for exploding them is en-
ployed they will not Ego off" and will
do no damage. The reason for this
may be explained by an illustration
Consider a grateful of coal. There is
there enough of what we may call ex.
plosive energy to throw 1000 pound
weight through a foot of solid steel
If only it could be liberated. But there
can be no explosion without oxygen,
and the coal in the CRATE will not burn
faster than the supply of oxygen in the
air which reaches it will permit. If
the coal could be furnished all at once
with enough air to cause it's complete
burning, it would explode with as great
violence as If it were so much dyna
mite.-St. Nicholas.

A we'll known divine whose theolog-

in all the principal cities accepted an
invitation to lecture in a small provin-
cial town, but discovered afterward
that he had a prior engagement on the
same date. He accordingly apologized
and offered to make good any loss the
society might incur through his delin-
quency.
A few days later he received a letter
from the secretary assuring him that
no harm was done and inclosing a
handful which the divine is never

His Good Eye.


It is a curious fact that the loss of
any one of the five senses is atoned for
to considerable extent by a pro-
nounced increase in the efficiency Of
the other senses. The result is some
times astonishing
A man who had lost the sight of
both eyes trained his hearing until he
could tell by the sound of his footsteps
on the sidewalks as he made his way
about town whether he was in the
middle Of the walk or at one side,
whether he was walking past a brick
or frame house or fence or open
ground.
He knew in what part of the town
he was not only by his memory or
sense of general direction, but by the
difference in the stones" of his foot
steps, and he walked about freely, sell
dom running into anything or any
body.
Some one in his presence once called
in question his total blindness.
(which eye do you think can see
withY' he asked the skeptic.
"The left one, of course" was the
reply. II can see that the right one is
blind"
In reply the blind man merely
opened his penknife and tapped the
left eye with the little blade.
It was glass eye.
