TEST MILCH GOATS
FOR WISCONSIN

A herd of five imported Swiss milch
goats has just been received at the farm
of the Agricultural Experiment Station
at the University of Wisconsin. These
animals have been leased to the station
by Ernest Gozenbach, Sheboygan, Wis,
for co operative tests on the breeding
and rearing of mich goats, to determine
their usefulness, economy of milk pro-
duction, and relation to other classes Of
live stock. This breed of goats known
as the "Schwarzenburg Guggesberger"
breed is noted for its large milk produc
tion, the milk being of particular value
for infants and invalids, since goats are
practically immune to tuberculosis
These goats are kept in Switzerland as a
chief source of food for poor people
The herd includes two pairs, one aged
and one young pair, and one six months
old kid. There are comparatively few
of these goats in the United States, and
this is believed to be the first time u
scientific test Of their usefulness has been
attempted in this country. The work
will be under the direction of Prof G.
c. Humphrey, head Of the animal hus
bandry department, who will be assisted
by Mr.. Gonzenbach in establishing q
herd.

mittee appointed by Mayor Groffman,
composed of Chairman Thomas Tori
son, Heury Wernecke and Aid. Chas.
Pres. Pennington, Supt. Potter and other
500 officials at Minneapolis late Satur-
day afternoon. Although the interview
was slated for II o'clock in the morning
it was o'clock in the afternoon before
the Manitowoc committee could get an
audience.
When the committee did get the ears
of the officials they poured forth h line
of talk, backed up with petitions, data
and statistics that could not help but
convince the 500 officials that the stand
taken by Manitowoc was right and pro-
per. The 500 officials admitted that
they were not acquainted with the con-
ditions on the old Wisconsin Central
line, which the 500 had just taken over
and that they proposed to be fair and to
give to this city schedule that would
not discriminate against the local mer.
chants and shippers.
The meeting was most harmonious
one and the committee returned home
Monday morning highly pleased with the
result of their mission. The troubles of
the Manitowoc public and merchants
were briefly stated to the 500 officers by
the committee, it being recited that there
was no train in and out on the Neenah
branch all Sunday. They admitted that
they did not know the conditions.
They stated that the matter would be
looked into and that a letter would be
sent to the committee in three or four
days advising them of what action would
be taken,

GAS COMPANY
SUBMITS PROPOSITION.

Upon condition that the City grants
authority to the company to establish
minimum charge of so cents per month,
the Manitowoc Gas Company has sub,
mitted proposition to the committee
on light and gas which, if accepted, will
fix a rate of 81 05, net, for both fuel and
Illuminating gas for period OF two
years, until June 1911 after which the
company agrees to grant a rate OF $l.Oo
for all gas supplied in the city, the min
imun charge to be permanent. The
proposition is being considered by the
committee which will report in the near
future.
Present prices of gas are $1.25 for fuel
and 81. so for Illuminating with % a off
when paid before the 10th of the month.
The principal aim of the company in the
new proposition is said to be the abolish
ment of the two-meter system which
would be possible with fixed similar
charge for both kinds of gas The min
imum charge would guarantee the COM
pany stipulated revenue for its service
and if accepted, no attempt would be
made to press the service charge which
the company demands in its appeal to
the railroad commission.
If the proposition is accepted the liti-
cation now pending in the supreme
court will be dropped and the new
schedule of charges will go into effect at
once and the $l.O5 rate will continue
until June 1911 and at that time rate
of 81. will be given consumers. The
company has contended its right to a
service charge which would amount to
So per year and this was the reason for
the contest by the city. The proposal
now made is practically the same rs
offered year ago,
