Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1912-01-05

Many Wisconsin farmers who have
heard 50 much about the productive
ness of the irrigated states will be
surprised to hear that ali acre OF
corn wheat, oats, barley, rye and
flax is of greater value in Wisconsin
than in the irrigated states, and the
Wisconsin farmer does not have to
buy water nor lead it around in lit
tie creeklets over his farm with Il
hoe and rubber boots and bad
temper Comparing Wisconsins 1911
crop with that of Colorado and TAX
ing the November farm value Of each
as shown by the Z. S. Crop Repor
ter, the aggregate value of an acre
each of the above mentioned crops is
more than SO greater in Wisconsin
than in Colorado. The statistical de-
partment Of the Wisconsin Advance
ment Association will soon have the
figures worked out as applying to the
other irrigated states and this COM
parison will be the best of reasons
why the Wisconsin farmer should be
satisfied that he located in the right
state.

NORTH Wis. MIS-REPRESENTfD
Census Bureau Does Injustice To This
Part Of the State in Its
Reports.

With more than 100000 of acres
of land awaiting development, the
state Of Wisconsin can we'll afford
to reflect upon the volume and the
Importance of her latent resources,
and see if they may not deserve some
of the public attention that up to the
present time has been centered up
on the undeveloped resources of othe
states, most OF which are SO remote
from the centers of population that
their development means little to the
masses Of the people. 1t is surpris-
ing that nearly all the forces of the
various bureaus of the government at
Washington seem to value the re-
sources Of the country In the ratio Of
their ilaccessibility, the hazards Of
development and the problems in
vOlved in their use. If an area Of un
developed land is remote enough and
environed with all possible elements
of inaccessibility, enthusiasm in the
bureaus is certain to develop, but
home-making opportunities in a state
like Wisconsin, with great markets
right at it's doors, have little of in
terest to the boys in the bureaus al
the national capital. That they know
little of conditions in Wisconsin is
evident from the following statement
! In the advance bulletin of the 18th
census on Wisconsin agriculture: III
tne northern portion it is rough anc
| In large measure has not thus far
been found available for such Gag
riculturaD use
John p. Hume, Manager OF the Wis
cinsin Advancement Association
made a trip to Washington last week
taking with him an overwhelming sup
ply of facts and figures to show that
instead of being unavailable, these
areas in the northern part of Wis
consn are peculiarly and specially
suited to general farming, dairylng
and the successful production OF
many special crops. Mr., Hume's sup
ply Of evidence SO fully established
all the points of superior farming op-
portunities in the upper Wisconsin
counties that the Director of the
Census gave assurances that the fl
nal edition Of the census will do full
| Justice to Wisconsin. Without at
tempting to account for such blum
ders upon the part Of the census
! bureau as above referred to, it is suf
| ficient that a full correction will
! follow
But there are other bureaus down
at Washington that need to be aWak
ened to the facts that it is rot yet
necessary to wander off over des
| erts, or to remote corners of the
country to find opportunities for az
ricultural eXtension-One of which is
the reclamation department, another
! is the photographic bureau-but tc
this we will give attention in flu
ture article.

Teachers insurance and Retirement
Fund

Chapter 1923, Laws of 1911 A Brief
Digest of the Law, of Interest to

~ means Of which an annuity is thus
given to eligible teachers is provi-
1ed in part by the state, as tax of
zen cents per capita for each child
IF school age in the state, will be
levied for this purpose annually. The
teachers must also contribute to the
fund an amount equaling one per
cent of their salary mot exceeding
SIS per year, annually for the first
ten years, and two per cent of their
annual salary mot exceeding $40 per
YEAR, for the remaining fifteen years.
This law went into effect Septem-
Der first last, and all teachers who
re teaching for the first time are
under its provisions. All teachers
who taught last year may elect to
come under it's provisions II they
signify their wish to do so before
September 18th, 1912. After that
date they are Ineligible but those

CIVIL WAR BATTLES
 FOUGHT OVER AGAIN
Evenly Matched Forces of Federals
 and Confederates.

Some of the battles of the civil ar were fought over again yester Gay morning on Washington stree! near the corner of Center. The forces were evenly matched. Of the fcderals there were General A J. Sampson and Mir. Dennis while the confederate hosts were represented in the person of Henry C. Orme, and Captain John II. Hancock. All had had stirring experiences in the long tlue and long gray lines
 Reciting the causalties in the en agreements in which he had partici- pated, Captain Hancock said: 'l was killed at Malvern Hill" The captain qualified this sad statement with the remark that he had been reported killed.
 T was reported to have been kill ed at Petersburg" said General Sampson.
 That's nothing" said Mir. Orme those were only rumors. I was mortally scared at Brandy Creek and half dozen other battles. That hurt great deal more than being reported dead"

INDIANS PLUS
 PRESCOTT |S ?
What Will Happen When Local Redmen and Grid iron Stars of Prescott High School Meet i'll Last Game of 1912 Season?

Coach Vennc of the Phoenix Indian school football team received word last night that Prescott is on the way here for this afternoons game.
 The contest today will be a mem orable ending to the highly success ful local football season. Two bet ter matched teams than those of the Indian school and the Prescott high cannot be found in Arizona. In all their contests they have proven al most equally strong.
 The Indians enter the game with all kinds of confidence. They are stronger at this moment than they have been at any time this year, for the topmOst point of their train ing is here. leaving them in the best of condition. Prescott is also well prepared for the battle. A team that will remain long in the annals of the mile high city is q bunch of eager fighters. What the result will be, when the Prescott boys descend from their mountain home to engage in battle with the rcdmen cannot be foretold, but at all events, those who take the Indian school car in time to see the game this afternoon are going to see one fierce scrap.
 Venne was saying just last night that his preparations for football and all the work he had done this sea son is preliminary to next season when the Indians will meet some real hard teams. In looking to the fu- turc while providing for the present Venne shows his judgment as foot ball coach. The material is there all it needs is the polishing. Venne supplies the latter
