FRUIT CROP RE-SOLD.

The following information has been
kindly supplied us by Frederick Crane
field, secretary of the Wisconsin
State Horticultural society:
Editor Wdusdat Pilot =
A few words about the states trial
orchard near Wausau may be of in
terest to your readers. First; Will
you tell your readers again that this
orchard on the Gensman farm is not
university work nor connected in any
way with the university. The state
Horticultural society is running the
whole business and has been for four
teen years. We state this so that
any mistakes we may make will not
be charged to the university and in
cidentally that any credit which may
be due shall come our way.
The crop this year is not up to that
of 1909 but exceeds that of 1910. A
severe hail and wind storm in July
pounded off probably 25 per cent. of
the crop, ana somewhat damaged the
remainder. Hailstones striking i'm
mature apples make dents that some
what mar the skin but do not in the
least injure the fruit for culinary
purposes. The crop this year which
will exceed 1,50O bushels has all been
sold to Geo. f. Rick of your city,
who has since sold it to the Thomas
Produce Co. The company is willing
to give time to the entertainment of
visitors, but having paid good price
for the crop cannot be expected to
give its whole time to this work. We
have therefore arranged to keep
"open-house" Wednesdays of each
week. Wausau people who wish to
see the orchard will be welcome on
that day. No fruit will be sold at
the orchard.
Anyone sincerely interested in fruit
growing or in this orchard, who will
call for Mr.. Gensman at the farm,
will be shown through the orchard
at any time except on Sundays. In
addition l will be pleased to answer
questions at any time, and if asufficient
number of interested people care to
appoint day to visit the orchard
will come to Wausau or send someone
who is thoroughly familiar with the
different kinds of fruit to give in
formation. Varieties bearing best
this year are Hibernal, Duchess, Pat
ten Greening, McMahan and Wealthy.
For farm orchard in Marathon
county we recommend these varieties.

SUCKERS, FOOLS, ETC.

Wausau people who attended the
Wood county fair in Marshfield last
week say that the town was wide
open so far as gambling was concerned,
and that the town was infested with
a gang of get-rich-quick men and
pickpockets. Some of the old para
phernalia stored away in this city at
the time John Lamont was elected
mayor was shipped to that city and
did the divorce act for suckers and
their money. A number of the jim
Crows spent a few hours in this city
Saturday on their way to Merrill.
Allseemed to have plenty of jingle in
their pockets. They will probably be
down here next week, but will get
into trouble if they start any finn
fam games. Most Of our people who
were addicted to the gaming habit
have sworn off. The others we are
getting rid of as fast as possible.

Young man of thirty this is meant

1t looks very much to man on the

won the pennant in the NV. lea que
race. The season ends September 10,
and Superior is almost daily increas-

held the lead from the opening of the
season, and, after several weeks of
play, had the largest percentage of

Winona has been pried off the top
rung of the ladder and put out of the

Attack Like Tigers.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply so fast the little fighters are
overcome. Then see pimples, boils,
eczema, saltrheum and sores multiply
and strength and appetite fail. This
condition demands Electric BitterS

and to expel poisons from the blood.

Ice has to be soaked in water all night

dust in the bed of the river that the

lot of bullfrogs before the fire could
be extinguished, and the ground is so
dry and hard that crawfish holes in

Finding them would be like trying to
find Point Barrow in fog But you
see, If they kept them here in these
huts, and then hid them when they
caught sight of the yacht while they
may be well hidden, they cant be FAR
away. There wouldn't have been time
to move them far; certainly not over
the glacier and into the interior there.
1t must all be hidden somewhere, here
on the coast. When we find that hiding
place, we shall probably find all the
stores we need for the winter"
Then, I suppose, the next thing Tor
us to do is to go out and find it,
mot quite the next thing. Unless
we have exceptional luck, we can
hardly hope to find it for several
days; it may take fortnight, and we
must have some temporary security
first. In the meantime there Is no
telling what sort Of weather we VIII
