W. Descher, of indianapolis has pur-
chased from Dickerson e. Peck their 40
acre ranch on the West Side. The pot

had planned in order to make a closer
inspection of the orchards.

SPRING SHOOTING UNLAWFUL
State Fish and Game Warden Shots
Corrects False impression Con-
corning Duck Hunt ng.

Shooting ducks in the
spring will be just as unlawful in
1912 as heretofore, according to
State Fish and Game Warden John
A. Sholts. In a recently published
summary of the game laws as chang
ed or continued by the recent legis-
Iature, mistake was made in stat
ing the time of the open season for
ducks, the incorrect period being
given as from September l to May
1. The right period is from Septem-
Der 1 to January 1, which precludes
spring shooting. The mistake had
caused many sportsmen to fear that
spring shooters had slipped one
over" on the legislature, which body
was distinctly antagonistic to the
idea of extending the open season.

HORSE EXHIBITORS APPEAL
Call Upon Railroad Comm ssIon for
for Same Shipping Rate to Fairs
as Given Other Live Stock.

Milwaukee.-An appeal has been
made to the state railway commits
sion jointly by the state board OF
agriculture and the breeders and ex
hibitors of horses at state and coun
ty fairs in Wisconsin to relieve them
of alleged discrimination made by
the railroads in rates charged for
horses sent for exhibition purposes
to state and county fairs.
The railroads of Wisconsin charge
one-way rate on cattle, hogs and
sheep when sent as exhibits for
county fairs, state fairs, cattle shows,
cattle sales, etc. The usual course
of procedure is to charge full rate
for each head of cattle, sheep or
swine exhibit and return the herds
to their place of shipment free.
A meeting of leading horse breed
ers may be held here to adopt plans
for inducing the railroads to grant
them the same concessions as are
given cattle breeders.
An attempt will be made to adjust
the rates before the county fair sea-
son opens so that the smaller shows
will be given the same advantage
as the state fair

ENCAMPMENT OF
MILITIA IS ENDED
STATE GUAROSMEN CLOSE AC-
INVITES AT CAMP DOUGLAS
WITH BIG SHAM BATTLE.
MEET MOST SUCCESSFUL
Regiments Show Marked improves
mont in Military Work-First Regi-
ment Repuises Attack of Second
and Third in Battle.

Camp Douglas.-The 1911 en-
ampment practically closed with the
sham battle when the First battalion
held the wooded defile north of camp
against the combined attacks of the
Second and Third battalions.
The problem was one in rear
guard formation and a detachment
from company G was protecting the
rear when the attacking party came
up. A brisk fire from the extreme
rear guard forced the enemy to de-
ploy, giving the supports a chance
to get into action, and so the First
battalion was saved
1t has been on the whole the most
successful encampment in the history
of the guard. The regiments excelled
in the features of military work in
which they have hitherto led, but
showing marked improvement in
those in which they were deficient.
The Third still leads in shooting, the
Second has made great gains in it's
close order work and guard duty,
while the First, excelling in military
courtesy and discipline, has made
great strides in it's shooting.

CENSUS ARRESTS DELAYED
Five Superior Men Are Likely to Be
Nabbed for Alleged Padding of
Reports-Withold Warrants.

Superior.-As yet there have been
no developments in connection with
the alleged padding of the last fed
eral census.
Arrests of at least five local people
are expected, but will not occur I'M
til Monday at the earliest, as the
United States marshal has not yet
received any warrants in connection
with the affair.

MADISON NEWSPAPER SOLD
Richard Lloyd Jones, Former Col
lier's Weekly Editor. in Control
of Daily State journal.

Madison.-The Wisconsin State
Journal makes editorial announce
ment of the passing of control of the
paper to Richard Lloyd Jones, former
associate editor of Golfers Weekly.
1t is announced that Mr.. Jones has
bought the stock Of DIR. Amos P.
Wilder, American consul at Shanghai
and that the new editor and publish
er is a progressive and that he will
stand for the best in civic and ma
tional life.
The statement notes the reason for
the sale in the fact that Mr.. Jones
proposed to start a new afternoon
daily in Madison had he not been
successful in securing control of the
State Journal, and that in the in
terests Of the public generally the
maintenance of only one such paper
was the part of wisdom.

DECREASE IN DEATH RATE
Shows that Only 1899 Died in
Wisconsin During June.

Madison.-The total number OF
deaths in Wisconsin during June, &C
cording to an announcement by the
Wisconsin state board of health, was
1899. This was the lowest number
for June in several years, notwith-
standing the population is increasing
at the rate of over $4,000 annually.
In June, 1910, the deaths numbered
2,273, in June, 1909, 1000, and in
June, 1908, 1000. The decrease this
year is attributed to the absence Of
any serious epidemics and to a more
general observance of hygienic rules

GRAFTON HAS $4,000 FIRE
Burning of Second Foundry in Town
III Within Month Arouses Sus-
picion of Incendarism.

Port Washington.-Fire of un-
known origin totally destroyed the
Grafton Iron foundry at Grafton, six
miles from here. The loss is esti-
mated at $4,000. Nentzloff Bros.
are the owners.
A peculiar coincidence is the fact
that only about four months ago the
Globe foundry, also a Grafton in
dustry, suffered loss of $4,000 by
fire.
While the owners refuse to make
any statements concerning the origin
of the blaze, a rumor in Port Wash
lngton tonight suggested the suspi-
cion that the fire was incendiary.
Between forty and fifty men were
employed by the company, and will
be without work.
The flames from the building could
be seen for great distance and for
time it was feared they would
spread to nearby buildings and sweep
the town.
With the destruction of the Graf
ton foundry the village is minus it's
largest industry. For years the
Grafton and Globe foundries have
given employment to nearly 100 men,
1t is not known whether the plant
will be rebuilt.

PRAYERS DECLARED WASTED

islature Did Rotten Business.

Madison-Rev. A l.. Tull, re-
tired Methodist minister living in
this city, has lost faith in the Wis
consin legislature and has returned
his check for So paid for delivering
an invocation in the senate, accom-
panied by letter to State Treasurer
Dahl, reading as follows:
81 received your check for So for
delivering prayer in the senate. l
thank you and the senate for the
courtesy but return it, as to keep it
would be purely commercialism, in
accepting So from the senate for
just asking the favor of the Lord
for the moment upon them. Really,
it seems as if the S672 paid for pray
er during this session was lost money,
as the legislature did such rotten
business on all temperance meas
ures"

COUNTY FAIRS TO
PURGE MIDWAY
WITHDRAWAL OF STATES AID
WILL FOLLOW OPERATION
OF TABOOED SHOWS.
MORE MONEY FOR EXHIBITS
New State Law Provides Increased
Support for Purely Agricultural
DIspiays-Deals a Blow to Fairs
That Were Merely Racing Meets.

Madison - County fair oh1clals
throughout the state are proceeding
cautiously in booking concessions
for the coming fair season as re-
suit of more stringent laws against
improper games and shows. State
aid will be withheld from all fair
societies which are found to have
permitted violations of the rule.
All games of chance not depend
ing on skill, and all shows of I'M
moral character are by the new law
forbidden upon pain of losing state
aid varying from $4,000 to smaller
amounts. Appropriations were made
as follows: To state fair, S15,00O;
Northern Wisconsin state fair or the
La Crosse Interstate fair, $o,OOU
each; Walworth County Agricultural
society (inter-county), $4,000; all
other county fairs, not exceeding ST.
500.
The law regarding state aid to
fairs has just undergone an import
ant change in the direction Of in
creased support for purely agr1cul-
tural exhibits. Formerly portion
of the state money went to pay for
purses in horse, auto and motorcy-
Gle races. Now the speed element
is eliminated and the law says that
the state shall pay 80 per cent OF
the total amount of premiums paid
at the fair in the preceding year
upon livestock, articles of produc-
ton, educational exhibits, agricul-
tural implements and tools, domestic
manufactures, mechanical imple-
ments and productions for which
published premiums have been Of
fered; but in no case shall any one
premium exceed the sum of $50"

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
scale. Then it would break out
again and 1t spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over In red bumps and
1t kept spreading until it was on his
hands and arms. I bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had it about six months when
friend told me about Cuticura. l sent
and got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent,
q cake of Cuticura Soap and box of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles of Resolvent, two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes OF
Soap he was sound and well, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
AA@ hCoN' uoA CAAAh any LhAh5 OASV
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
Il have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since

purposes" (Signed) Mrs. F. E. Har-
