National Dairy Exhibit

Plans to make the national dairy
kee are rapidly maturing. The most
fiattering endorsement the movement
has received since it's inception, has
been the decision of the board of di
rectors of the Wisconsin Cheese
makers association, by which the
cheesemakers of Wisconsin will meet
in Milwaukee as one of the allied in
terests of the national dairy show,
October IA to "a, instead of the regu-
lar January convention date. The
action of the Wisconsin cheesemen
means that the national dairy show
will be encouraged and assisted by
every organized cheese maker and
butter maker in Wisconsin, and in ad-
dtion to the 500 delegates that will
attend the cheesemakers convention,
there will be thousands of unattach-
ed and Independent breeders and
owners of dairy cattle, dairymen, in
structors, machinery dealers and
creamery specialists, attracted to Mil
waukee during the ten days exposi-
tion of the dairy interests and its re
lated branches.
The dairy farmer, the one who
breeds, owns and feeds the COW, the
one who represents a portion of the
$50, 0OO, 900 invested in dairying in
Wisconsin has never fully appre-
ciated the direct value that can be
gained by a visit to the national
dairy show until the show was To-
Gated in Milwaukee. Now, however,
being so close at hand and with the
further benefits of the one and one
half fare on all roads, for the round
trip, the progressive element will be
on hand next month to study the
varied features of the national show,
one of which will be a working herd
of dairy COWS. This herd will be used
for practical and economical lessons,
tain cost of production, the selection
and maintenance of a type. Men of
national reputation will be present to
question and explain the work. 1t
will be the greatest chance of the
year for the Wisconsin farmer to take
a vacation and combine business with
pleasure. If he appreciates this
chance by his attendance 1t will prob
ably mean the permanent location in
Milwaukee Of the dairy show, which
promises to be the biggest agricul-
tural show in America

The question of the election of an

in the matter as the city council is
empowered to elect a successor.
This is the second resignation from
the city council this yeal, the pre-
vious one being that Of DR.. T. F,
Shinnick who resigned last spring,
giving business reasons as the cause.

DOINCS MONDAY
Labor Day Observed

Organized labor observed its an
nual holiday today and nine local
unions were represented il the parade
which formed at 1 D. m. and marched
to Tivoli Island where the annual
picnic is held. The local union bar
bers were also in line as was also the
Union carpenters and plumbers Of
Oconomowoc Music for the parade
was furnished by the Watertown Mill
tary band. The parade moved in the
following order:
Committee
Color Bearer
Mayor and Speaker in Carriage
BARRIERS
Brewers
Cigarmakers
Printers
Tailors
Oconomowoc Plumbers
Plumbers
Band
Sheet Metal Workers
Masons
Oconomowoc Carpenters
Carpenters
Painters
Flags fioated from many fiagstaffs
about the city and many of the bust
ness places were decorated. Business
generally was suspended at noon so
as to give all the employees a chance
to participate in the picnic in the
afternoon. All the union men were
noticeable by their suits and badge
which were appropriate to the trade
they represent and they presented a
fine appearance as they passed along
Main and West Main streets.
At the Island there were many
amusements arranged by the COM
mittee and everybody enjoyed them
selves thoroughly. The picnic will
continue this evening. Mayor Arthur
Mulberger delivered short address
after the parade arrived and the labor
day address was delivered by Alder
man E. T. Melms of Milwaukee, who
spoke on labor topics. His address
was listened to by a large concourse
of people.
The celebration of ''the first Mon
day in September" is general in the
United States now. Nearly every
state has made it a legal holiday, and,
where there is no official designation,
custom has made the day one OF
cessation of ordinary vocations. 1t is
a holiday in honor of the toiler as a
factor in humanity's progress. 1t
recognizes in a peculiar way the dig
nifty of labor. For no other feature
of modern civilization do the wheels
Of commerce and industry cease to
turn on a given day year after year.
The holiday should be a happy one.
The outlook is favorable everywhere,
Prosperity, which was inclined to be
elusive some months ago, promises to
return full-handed for all. All indica-
lions point to plenty of work at good
wages. Such a condition foretells
happiness and comfort. That is the
feeling likely to be reflected in parade
and picnic, in games and sports, in
the gatherings of many kinds that
have been planned for a busy day.

Homestead Lands

Extensive preparations are being
made to look after the needs and
comforts of the public in connection
with the opening of the government
homesteads on the Cheyenne river
and Standing Rock reservations, Oc-
tober to % inclusive.
Applicants for these homesteads
must register for this purpose some
time between October 4 and %. Pierre
the capital of South Dakota, and Alb
erdeen, one of South Dakota's i'm
portant commercial centerS, have
been designated as registration points.
The Chicago & Northwestern Rail-
way announces low rate hOmeSeek-
ers' tickets on sale October and 10
in connection with the registration,
and extensive plans are under way
for handling the people in an orderly
manner at the registration towns.
The people of Pierre and Aberdeen
are fully awake to the Importance of
the occasion. One of the features OF
the reception that will be given the
public at Pierre is the Gas Belt Ex-
position which will be open at that
city during the registration period,
thus giving the public an opportunity
to see a fine collection of the agricul-
tural products of the region in which
the lands are located.
The train service of the Chicago x
North Western from all parts of the
west and northwest is such that ap-
plicants for homesteads can reach
Aberdeen and Pierre, safely and ex.
peditiously, in the greatest possible
comfort, with prompt connections at
all junction points and ample train
equipment to take care of the people.
The registration and drawings for
these lands will be on the same gen
eral plan as was made use of in the
Rosebud openings.
The lands have been classified and
appraised by the government, anG a
price of from so cents to Sc per acre
has been established, payment where
of is divided into annual installments
covering a period of five years.
The land is of the same general
character as adjoining lands now on
the market at S25 to s95 per acre.
The soil is a light loan and an
excellent grain producer. The entire
region is we'll watered, being crossed
by five large rivers and their tribu-
taries. The track extends from the
Cheyenne River in Armstrong County,
South Dakota. It is eighty-seven
miles in length; and from forty-two to
eighty-four miles wide. The Cheyenne
River forms the southern boundary
along its eastern edge. The govern
ment report show a generous rainfall
and favorable temperature for the
growing season.
Over one and half million acres
of this land are to be thrown open to
the public, making this one of the
largest government openings in re-
cent years, and it will be one of the
last large tracts available.
The usual requirements of the
United States homestead laws will
apply and any citizen of the United
States, native born or naturalized,
who does not already own more than
100 acres Of land, and who has not
exercised his homestead rights is
eligible as a homesteader.
The desirability Of the land will
bring large crowds to the opening.

ties of folders, giving an exact des-
