There is no educational institution in
the same class with the county fair.
The state fairs offer greater attrac-
lions, but comparatively few people
feel that they can afford to visit them.
At the county fair we all meet togeth-
er on the same level, as we do no.
where else and, since the delegation of
the political convention, it is the only
great assembling of the people of the
county during the year. There we
admire our neighbours stock and pro-
duce, compliment his wife's fancy
work and preserves, cheer the feats of
his sons in the sports and races. Each
succeeding fair should be and is an in
SEPARATION to the farmers to- raise bet
ter stock, grow bigger pumpkins and
try some new crop of which his neigh
Dor has made a success. Speaking of
Rusk county as fruit country is gen
orally treated as joke, but the visitor
at the county fair this year sees apples
and grapes that cannot be excelled any
where. The steady increase in the
number of exhibitors is evidence that
the people appreciate the value of a
county fair.

GROW MEDICAL PLANTS HERE

To find what plants used in making
drugs and medicines can be grcwfl
profitably on Wisconsin farms, the de-
partment of pharmacy at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, under the direction
of Prof. Edward Kremers, has been
testing a large number of these plants
on an experimental plat. The work is
being done in cooperation with the
Bureau of Plant Industry of the U. S.
Department Of Agriculture, and Archi-
bald Russell, '08, Fond du Lac, has
been appointed assistant in charge of
the field work.
Although the soil in which the plants
were grown was not of particularly
good quality, some of the species are
doing better than similar plats at
Washington, D. c.
Among the medical plants being
tested are those from which digitalis,
hoarhound, opium, capsicum, castor
oil, cascara and peppermint are OBJ
tanned. The experiments will be con-
tinued next year on the same ground.
The authorities are particularly in
terested to determine how the peren-
NAL plants will Withstand the cold of
Wisconsin winters.

Where Caesar Crossed Thames.

Where did Julius Caesar cross the
Thames? This sounds like one of the
questions set by staid old examiners
in search of information they failed to
acquire in their youth There are per
haps as many places claiming to be
the site of the famous fording as there
were claiming to be the birthplace of
Homer. This week Brentford has
stolen a march on other places and
has erected a monument commemor
ating Caesars crossing of the Thames
there! Most historians and to-
pographers agree in placing the point
of crossing at Halliford at point
known as Convey ii. e., Causeway)
Stakes and but little support is found
for the Brentford theory. To many
people monument is the most con
vincing of evidence, and though there
is little tradition to support the Brent
ford column, that column will no
doubt serve to strengthen the tradi
tion.-London Chronicle.

INSIDE OF A DAM
Unique Power House Near Baltimore
Constructed Under Water.

Unique Power House Near Baltimore
Constructed Under Water.
An absolutely unique power plant
has recently been completed about
fifteen miles below Baltimore on the
patapsco river. 1t is built within a
dam and is entirely under water. 1t
is the first of it's kind ever built, and
cost much less than it would have ii
built in any other known way.
The dam is 220 feet long, 400 feet
thick at the base and 26 IL feet high
The spillway is 1913 feet long, but at
present only 108 feet of this distance
is used for housing the power plant
The dam is of reinforced concrete, the
shell being Is inches thick at the bot
tom and tapering to 10 inches at the
top.
The apron extends only half way
down from the crown, says the Elec-
trical World, the remaining down
stream portion being entirely open
and provided with windows by means
of which the interior Is lighted. The
shape of the apron is such that the
water is thrown some little distance
away from the windows
The part used by the power house is
fitted with . false ceiling hung five
feet from the inside of the dam so a.
to protect the apparatus from any
water that might seep through the
outer shell of the dam. The dam is
built of fine and rich mixture, which
was laid very wet Aside from this
no precautions were taken to elimi-
nate water.
The water is fed to the turbines
through steel pipes passing through
the up stream spillway shell and dis
charged by draft tubes into the base
of the dam, dropping into well sunk
some three feet below the river bed
The water passes thence by way of
a channel constructed in the river
bed out of the DAM The inta. e is
five and half feet below the crest
of the spillway so that the trash
racks are kept clear of DRIFT wood, etc.

TO RISE IN BUSINESS LIFE.
Some Few Essentials Must Be kept
in Mind, and One of These Is
Advertising.

A man may have several carloads
of ability. He may have brains and
ideas and other desirable things. But
all the ideas ever "ideated" will not
avail to raise a man who neglects that
all important item of advertising You
simply must get attention. OF course,
you can get attention by firing off
revolver during office hours, or you
can do it by wearing loud clothes and
proclaiming your kinship in the
sporting fraternity. But most men
who have risen from the ranks have
carefully neglected to use methods
of this kind.
own salesman. He must first pre-
pare himself by increasing his Ell
iciency He must be able to do the
work for which he is hired. Not only
should he do that for which he is
hired, but he must do that work bet
ter than it ever was done before
When that item has been attended to
it is then time to look about for more
work
The wise employee will keep his eye
On the job ahead, or, better still, Will
look at job which does not exist,
but which should exist for the good
Of the business. The next step is to

There is a coterie of Bruce fellows
who are knocking" the Fair this year
because the village went dry" last
spring. They think that no public
gathering, least of all county fair,
can be success without a plentiful
fiavoring of whisky.
However, the first day was better in
every way than any previous first day
of the Fair: the attractions were bet
ter, the gate receipts larger, the crowd
more satisfied; everything was orderly,
with the young folks enjoying a bois-
ferrous good time; and there was a
noticeable absence of intoxication a.
mong men who seldom drink except
upon occasions of this kind, and who
never fail to make nuisance of them
selves when under the influence of liq-
uOr.
1t has been demonstrated here that
county fair is a greater success in a
dry town than in wet one, which, of
course, makes the license advocates
"sore."

REGARDING CHURCH FUNDS

Mrs. "M. C. W." of Springfield, Mo-,
writes the following to the House
keeper:
II am very much interested in the
way many churches raise money for
religious uses, and want to know how
many of the readers of your magazine
feel as do. | have been member of
our church since | was sixteen, and
have always been opposed to church
fairs, socials, entertainments and
suppers as means of raising money.
Having consistently refused to take
part in any such affairs I am rather
unpopular with most of the ladies OF
the church, but | cannot sacrifice my
principles even to please those whom |
should like to have as friends.
II think it is positively wicked for
churches to resort to such means OF
getting money. | do not believe in hold
ing entertainments where admission is
charged, even in the basement of the
church. 1t degrades the house of wor-
ship to a purely commercial level, and
brings disrepute upon the church, which
we all know suffers greatly from indiff-
erence and positive hostility. I confess
l do not see how worldly people can re-
spect congregation that processes to
be devoted to the service of God, and
all that is spiritual, and then takes to
grab bags, lunch basket auctions, fancy
dancing exhibitions and similar means
for raising money.
"The trouble is that processing
Christians do not like to contribute to
religious purposes as they should, and
want to get money from outsiders to
carry on the work of their church or
CARNATIONS. | have often seen bust
ness people in our own town held up to
buy tickets to church entertainments
when they had no sympathy with the
cause, and didn't want to go to the
entertainment. Yet they did not dare
to refuse for fear of hurting business.
That looks like polite blackmail to them
and me. No wonder they have Sc
cret dislike for the churches.
81 am in favor of sociability in the
church. | think the members of every
congregation ought to meet often on a
plane of perfect equality and fratern-
ity, but without charging ten cents at
the door. If we love the church as we
ought it will be pleasure to contrib
ute to it's needs freely and directly from
our own pockets. If all Christians

extra exhibition on the street corner in
the light of an electric lamp. Sam
Stewart of the town of Atlanta, with
his family in the buggy with him,
forced his horse through the crowd and
into the square where the 3Zouaves'
were drilling. He was stopped by the
village marshall, but loudly asserted
his right to drive through the street,
although he could have driven out an
other way. The drill suspended long
enough to permit him to pass.
Stewart is one of the marshals at
the Fair. 1t is said that he has a pol
itical bee buzzing in his bonnet-his
friends have been mentioning him as
our next sheriff. But the News-Bud-

There must be something criminally
wrong in railroad operation when a
man can be killed by a train and the
engineer know nothing of it. With
''his hand upon the throttle and his eye
upon the RAIL-" he may be going at
such a speed as to be unable to avert
the accident, but he certainly ought to
know when his engine hits man and,
knowing it, is duty bound to report at
the first opportunity. Twice in this
vicinity in as many months has man
been killed on the railroad and no one
could swear definitely as to how many
trains passed over the mangled re-
mains.
