SHIRT FACTORY
FOR LADYSMlTH
and Begun Work on Building.
Will Make Dress Shirts

For some time past A. Roesler,
has been devising plan for interesting
the members of his. family. The
idea of a shirt factory was decided up
on last winter and definite plans were
decided upon just this week, when re-
preventative of Minneapolis firm was
here and drafted specifications for the
building n d necessary machinery,
which they will install.
The building is to be 30x60, two
stories and basement. situated on the
block west of the High School building.
City water and sewer are available at
this point, and steam power will be
used, in connection with a dynamo.
The building will be modern in construc-
tion and only the latest improved ma
chinery will be installed. Already the
frames for the building are being made
at Roesler & Jacobs mill north of this
city, and work on the foundation will
begin this summer.
The products of this factory will be
fine dress shirts, and possibly shirt
waists, for which there is a ready
market at good prices. The enterprise
will give employment to a large number
of hands. Mrs. Ella Wilgrub, the old
est daughter of the family, will be the
manager, and the sons, Charles and
Fritz, will also be partners in the firm.
Mrs. Wilgrub will spend several months
this summer in factories of like nature
at Milwaukee, GAINESVILLE and Racine.
The whole building will be used for this
industry, packing cases being manufac-
tured in the basement.
Ladysmith should and does welcome
industries of this nature, and more
especially when they are instituted by
our own citizens, with whose stability
and integrity we are well acquainted.

Streets are Being Sprinkled

Ladysmith business men no longer
have reason to complain of the dust
nuisance. The new street sprinkler, SC
long talked of, has arrived and is being
operated by Alderman Porter, who is
compensated for his labor by receiving
from each business man benefited the
sum of Is cents per week. If it should
be rainy season Mr.. Porter will make
pretty good wages, but if it is at all
dry he will earn the money. At any
rate it is worth all it costs any merchant
to be rid of the dust these windy days.

TRAIN SERVICE
IN SIXTY DAYS
BaiIasting Progressing Rapidly on
Wisconsin Central.-Will En-
ter Superior by July

Altogether, probably more than 500
men are employed at present ballasting
the track, finishing the grading, build
ing fences and telegraph line on the
Wisconsin Central line between this
city and Superior. The ballasting be-
gan two weeks ago and now nine work
trains are kept busy hauling gravel
from three steam shovels at different
points. $40 cars of gravel per day are
being loaded and it is being put under
the ties at the rate of 5000 to 1000 feet
more than mile-per day.
The four miles of grading inside the
city limits at Superior is being rushed,
and the three miles of rail yet to be laid
outside the city will be done as soon as
the crossing under the Great Northern
tracks is completed. The Central will
pass over the Northern Pacific tracks,
but until that crossing is done, tenn
porary connection will be made and the
Central trains will run into Superior
and to Duluth over the N. P. Engineer
Birdsell is of the opinion that through
train service from Duluth to Chicago
should be established by the fore part
of August.
While the distance is only a few miles
less from Chicago to Duluth over the
Wisconsin Central than the Omaha
the next nearest route-the superiority
Of the Central roadbed in grade and
construction will enable them to cut the
Omaha's time between the two cities at
least two hours. When the contem-
plated cutoff is built between Owen
and Marshfield, however, the distance
will be reduced about 40 miles, mean
ing another hour less time.

LEAP YEAR.

Away back In the chronicle OF the
"Theban Women" OF Arlstophanes,
there orlginated--or, TO be more cor
rect. prominence was given to-that
rule OF the fair sex that has been n
matter OF more or less testing ever
since. With the wisdom OF the SER
pent women have artfully complained
that they have not been recognized az
a potent factor In the running OF
things, They have demanded certain
rights" which the sly creatures
knew they possessed all the time, and
and out of this propaganda grew the
mythical privileges of the Saturnian
year, commonly called leap year"
During the twelve months of this
calendar period women are supposed
TO be granted special social license
TO propose marriage to the elusive
and tlmld bachelor
In the saturnian year we are sup
posed to live in an atmosphere OF
topsy turyy, OF general reversal Of
manners and customs In which wom-
EN- proposes and man blushingly dis
poses. Sometimes, in tentative
way, although nearly always In a
sportive spirt,women pass the line
OF conventional restraint and invite
their men friends to balls and the
opera, but beyond that the bachelor
Is considered perfectly safe to grope
his blind and canine way through life
No one ever heard or woman pro-
posing marriage to man in leap
year or any other year. True, she
does really propose in majority Of
cases, but she noes so with an In
finite fInesse that defies Identified
ton There is delicacy OF contriy-
ance that passes all masculine under
standing. It is distlnctlvely femi-
ME weapon and no mere blundereE OF
man either recognizes 1t or guards
against &C. All institutions including
marriage are more or less women

A PROFITABLE INVESTMENT.

The bureau OF soils OF the depart
ment of agriculture expended $780,
600 in 1907 and will ask for $780,
900 for 1909 Will the investment
bring adequate returns?
Those who have noted what has
been accomplished by the bureau OF
soils are well satisfied with the
quality of the work and convinced
OF its practically A Washington
correspondent, setting forth the ma
ture and results of the activities of
the bureau, says:
so diversified is the field OF OPP
CREATIONS that summary Of the re-
suits takes up pages of reports. but
among the note worthy achievements
OF the bureau was the discovery some
time ago that the best Sumatra to-
bacco could be grown in certain
parts OF Connecticut, with the result
that tobacco growers in that state
find their products increased from
40 cents to from 81 to 81 pound.
II was found too, that wheat. tobac-
co and timothy would grow in SINH
lar soil found In certain portions of
Virginia and New York; that the APP
polochian fruit belt could be made
vastly more productive and richer,
and by this discovery thousands of
dollars were made for the fru'
growers, Then too the abandon
ing of farms in Pennsylvania and
throughout New England was inves-
tigated and study made that these
farms might be rehabilitated TIN
reasons for the exodus OF farmers
have heen discovered and corrected
IN various ways, so that when one
crop fails another which bears boun-
tlfully Is grown. No region has de-
rived more benefit from the bureau
than the South, and particularly the
cotton growers. who have greatly
profited by the experiments to deter
mine the different constituents OF
the cotton bearing soils. Where d.
minutlye crops were once secured, a
