FENCE POST PRESERVATlVE

About sixteen years ago Geo. N.
Wood, the real estate dealer, owned
farm adjacent to the villgae of Ne
koosa on the west side. When he
fenced this farm with Jack pine posts
and barb wire he poisoned the posts
with the following mixture as an ex-
tend the life of these jack pine posts.
The usual life of a jack pine post is
about from five to six years. While
in Nekoosa the past week, the pres
ent owner of said farm informed him
that these posts, which he used in
the building Of said fence were still
in a pretty good state of preserva-
ton and he wanted to know of Mr..
Wood what kind of preparation he
used. The following is the formula:
one part corrosive sub Innate, five
parts arsenic, and fifteen parts dairy
salt These are the directions he
gave for using this mixture; bore
one inch hole about 23 through the
post and about inches above the
ground. Moisten mixture, and wet
the hole i'm post. Then drive a dry
pine plug into the hole about one
inch distance. Green or wet posts
are best.
When Mr.. Wood built said fence
it was in the spring of 1894, around
the farm of 800 acres. The above
mixture was used upon these posts
and they are still in fairly good con-
dition and this was done nearly six
teen years ago. This goes to prove
that it is money we'll invested to pre-
pare posts for fence purposes with
this or some similar mixture. 1t more
than trebles the life of fence posts.

SCHOOL MANAGEMENT

The most powerful agency in school
management is kindness. There is no
force on earth so potent as love. When
it has possession of the human heart it
is all prevailing and oVerpOWering, and
especially if brought to bear upon sym.
pathetic childhood and youth. the
teacher must rule by kindness, have a
uniformity of good will, earnest SYM
pathy, and hearty generosity habitual-
ly exercised toward his pupils. The
teacher alone who loves his pupils has
power to gain their love and confidence,
which should be their chief reliance in
school management An affectionate
pupil will contide in a teachers judy
menU. respect his authority and fear
his displeasure. If you show him by
your personal attention and kindness
that you are his true friend. and that
all your efforts are designed to secure
his best good, and make him believe it
you hold him as by the power of en-
chantment, having no need of physical
force to keep him in subsection. He
is held by another and higher law,
which induces him to crafty your
wishes and seek the best good of the
school. But this kindness, which is
an essential element in every true sys-
tenn of government, is not, and cannot
be, a substitute for authority or an OBJ
staGle to severity, when the good of
the individual or school demands it.
The teacher must cherish an abiding
love for his pupils, and that love is
never more truly exercised than in the
infection of necessary punishment in
the management of public affairs.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1910-01-20
EXPRESS CHARGES ENORMOUS

Recent disclosures of express COM
pany earnings add new and important
arguments for d parcels post. 1t was
Postmaster General Wanamaker who
said that there were only four reasons
why the people could not have a par
GELS post These four reasons were
the four big express companies.
The Wells Fargo Express Company
in the fiscal year 1909 earned net, after
the payment Of all expenses and taxes,
over SIS per cent. of the total value of
all its property, and equipment used
in its business, and received in adj
dition 81. 400 600 income from invest
ments Of the accumulated profits. 1t
presented its share holders with a
special Christmas dividend of 800 per
cent. or $24, ,o0o.
The American Express Company
has been paying dividends Of to Il
per cent. for years, on a capitalization
half water; and last year received an
income of S1,17S.0OO from investments
Of its additional, accumulated profits.
The Adams Express Company with
a total investment of about Sc, 600, 900,
has, in recent years, in addition to

RESULT OF THE
POVERTY PARTY

The Poverty Parte" which was
held in the Forester's Hall Mon
day evening under the auspices of
the Good Templars was a success
from both a financial and social
standpoint. Most of those who came
were dressed appropriate for the oc-
casion, and those who neglected to
do so were a target to the police
force, who were on hand to catch
people who did not think the regu-
lations would be kept as stated in
the program. The police had to
watch very carefully the parts of
the room where ''winking" was fire.

members of the Order, and it seemed
to be well liked by the people in at

ners, rye bread, sourkrout and cot
fee were served.

SUPPORT YOUR TOWN

PatroniZe home where your interests
are and help maintain and support
these interests-your interests, your
neighbor's interests. Get that selfish
ness out of your heart that is enyious
of every success: that wants to pull
down every interest that seems to
reach beyond yours, and is in reality
and advantage to it and the town.
Neither imagine when few shekels
accumulate in your wallet you must
necessarily 60 out of town to spend
it, thinking it would never do to dis
tribute little cash to your home mer-
chants, since you can stand them off
for six months or a year. Mistaken
idea. They'll appreciate the cash and
give you just as good bargains as any
merchant in neighboring town or city
that may get your cash. Encourage
home dealers and manufacturers IN
everything, not only by your patronage
but by words of encouragement and
commentator. This is the way to
build up town and make business
lively; and be sure you patronize your
nome paper when you see it stands by
your interests, lauds every ligimate
enterprise, and watts to the world
doings, transactions, picturing advan-
tages, holding out inducements, and
in a thousand ways building up your
interests. If it deserves not your
hearty and liberal support, pray, what
does? Don't keep it down then found
ering for an existence and gasping for
breath. 1t is mighty poor rule that
won't work both ways, Stand by your
town and support all its interests.

People who have warm friends are
healthier and happier than those who
have none. A single real friend is a
treasure worth more than gold or pre-
cious stones. Money can buy many
things, good and evil All the wealth
Of the world could not buy a friend, or
pay you for the loss of one, and we are
the weakest and worst of spendthrifts
if we let friend drop off through in
attention, or let one push away
another, or if we hold aloof from one
for petty jealousy or needless slight.
One good friend is not to be weighed
against all the jewels of earth.

GOOD RESOLVES.

"A very good resolution to make is
to attend exclusively to ones own blu
siness. The best way to get through
the world pleasantly is to go straight
ahead. Ones own business is always
more than he can attend to perfect
ly. But we must not limit the making
to merely selfish pursuits 1t is our
business to do our duty. This is the
chief object and to it the making of
money and the winning of fame are
merely incidental. The business of
life is to be useful to your neighbors,
to the church, to the country, to
the race. Happily "a man can now
manage all the demands of his le-
ultimate business and not go a days
journey to do it. He can perform
all these duties for humanity near
and far, without leaving his own
home
