SECRETARY s. A. PELTON OF SAUK
COUNTY FAIR ASSOCIATION
GOES THROUGH COUNTRY
JUNK MAN GETS THE vALIsE
Grip Returned After Interesting Tour
Through Several Hands-Nothing
Gone.

After a speedy trip of three days
billing the Sauk county fair, S. A.
Pelton, who made the trip with
Thomas Jensen in his auto, lost his
valise near the bridge at the Woolen
mill. 1t was returned with none of it's
contents gone after an interesting cir
cult.
AS the explanation goes the grip was
found by Mrs. Perkins and NJ. Bur-
stein, who drives the white horse junk
wagon. Mr.. Burstein took possession,
as they say, and said he would adver-
tise it in the News. Mrs. Perkins sent
word to the office and learned that no
ad had been left there, the matter pos
siblY having been overlooked by Mr..
Burstein. Marshall Buckley was noti-
fed and secured the property with
nothing missing. Later investigation
discovered the owner.
A Rapid Trip.
Mr.. PeltOn says regarding the bill
ing expedition via automobile that
they covered more territory than ever
before, saw more stalled machines
than he supposed existed in the coun-
ty, noticed two prominent Baraboo
autoists grading the road between
Newport and Kilbourn, and returned
without once being compelled to stop
through the fault of the machine, or
to change the gear because of hills.
The prospects for booming fair are
most excellent.

WILL CUT OUT MADISON
Much Big Through Business on
Northwestern to Go on New Line,
Says r1r. Gardner

Although the Northwestern road is
planning a new line from Milwaukee
TO st. Paul, which will be run north OF
Madison, Vice President Gardner says
adequate service will be retained on
the Janesville-M M adison- Baraboo line,
which at present is the trunk between
Chicago and st. Paul.
Regarding the route of the new line
between Milwaukee and st. Paul, Mr..
Gardner would give no information
except to call attention to the fact
that subsidiary company, the Mil
waukee, Sparta and Northwestern has
been incorporated to build the line
from Lindwurm, just north of Milwau-
kee, to Clyman, in Dodge county, and
that the line would undoubtedly be
extended beyond Clyman when traffic
conditions demand it. He stated, in
reply to question, that the new line
would not be built to La Crosse.
The new line will mean that much
big through business, freight and pas
senger, will be diverted from Madison.

ESTHETIC HARMONY IN PLANTS

Carl A. Hoffman is one of the plant
specialists of Baraboo. His residence
is at Second street and his two lots of
land are adorned with many varieties
of Towering and beautiful foliage
plants.
He has lately been picking from his
second crop of roses. They are plants
furnished by the Great Northern Nurs-
cry of Baraboo and the flowers which
Mr.. Hoffman has on his center table
picked from bushes of the American
Beauty, Madame Druchsi and Tea
varieties are not to be excelIed by any
thing grown in hot house or garden.
Mr.. Hoffman has also been follow
ing Luther Burbank, the wizard of
plant life, one of whose latest products
is the famous Wonderberry. This lit
tie clustered beauty looks like blue
berry and TASTES like a mbination of
the egg plant and huckleberry. The
flavor is lingering one land more of a
suggestion of flavor than a real flaw
or. It belongs to the night shade
family. The fruit is said to be first
rate for canning and pies. Mr.. HOff-
man has big bed of this variety.
Another one of Mr.. Hoffman's
specialties this season is a corner of
Golden Bantam corn. This grain is a
brilliant yellow as soon as it is ready
to cock to be nibbled from the ear and
it remains green and luscious for a
dong time.
Another striking appearance on Mr..
Hofiman's place is the string of sweet
peas which he planted by the line wire
fence at the east. These flowers in as
sorted colors have been in blossom for
many weeks and many a visitor has
gone away with a mammoth button
hole bouquet.
Mr.. Hoffman is an enthusiast in his
hobby and talks most entertainingly
on his experiences. He knows the
best plants and seeds, IN his lines, and
practices faithfully crop rotation.
