Since last August they have purchased

Twenty days of beautiful October

Let us hope that the latter will contin-
ue indefinitely.
Manager Lepley of the Liberty Pole
cheese factory said to CENSOR scribe
that his institution is having a wonder
fully productive run for this season of

-Viroqua high school is fourth only
in the whole state in the number of
foreign pupils accommodated. This is
a remarkable record when we consider
the vast number of large schools
throughout the commonwealth. Our
number of pupils from outside territory
is counted at over one hundred.
The manual training department at
the high school is to be removed from
its present circumscribed quarters in a
front basement room to commodious
and better suited location in the large
north section of the same building. A
sensible movement on part of the facul-
ty and board of education. In the en-
larged sphere more extended and eff
cient Institutional service may be rem
dered.
The new Lutheran church is taking
on large proportions. The roof and
most of the exterior finish is nearing
completion and interior work will be
pushed vigorously. Whether the new
edifice is likely to be occupied by its
congregation before next spring will
likely depend on the weather and abili
ty to secure workmen to complete the
plans.
Conversation with farmers confirms
the belief that Vernon county crops
have yielded b0untifully the present
season as a whole. While there are
shortages in some commodities the
quality and good prices very largely
con pensate for discrepancies. Tobac.
CO is the one thing that people will fee
apparent losses in because Of decreased
acreage. but in this there is excellent
quality and remunerative prices.
