LINCOLN PROGRAM.

A very enjoyable program In honor OF
the great emancipation was given in
the College of Commerce Friday aft
ernoon. The assembly room was beauti-
fully decorated for the occasion and the
spirit of patriotism seemed to be in the
very atmosphere.
The principal feature Of the exer-

beautifully and eloquently paid tribute
to the industry, honesty and sincerity
of the hero whose birth we celebrate.
Miss Edith Walker, little twelve
year-old girl, delighted the audience
with a piano solo, and in~Tesponse to
applause rendered very enjoyable vo-

POSTAL BANK SOON
Kenosha Designated by De-
partment as Office for
Opening Of Bank.
MARCH 1ST SET AS THE DATE

Kenosha is finally to have postal
bank, as this city was designated as a
site for postal bank by the postmaster
general on Friday and an order issued
provided for the opening of the bank
in Kenosha ON the first day of March.
It was declared with the issuing of the
order that conditions in the Kenosha Of
flee had prevented former designation
Of this city as a postal savings bank.
The formal announcement has not as
yet been received by Postmaster r. v.
Baker, but he has been paving the way
for the opening of the bank for some
time and it is certain that by, the time
the formal order reaches Kehosha all
will be in readiness. The bank will be
operated in connection with the money
order department of the postoffice and it
lis not expected that any new officials
will be employed with the opening of
the bank. The postoffice inspectors
have been in Kenosha for the better
part Of two weeks making report in
regard to conditions in the city and
lust as soon as this report reached the
department the order for the opening
of the bank was issued by the post
master general. 1t is believed that the
Kenosha bank will be one of the most
successful maintained by the govern
nlent in the state. The inspectors have
been making an investigation into the
character of the foreign population of
Kenosha and it is declared that the
makeup of Kenosha is particularly well
suited for the successful operation of
a postal savings bank. 1t is probable
that with the opening Of the bank both
the First National bank and the Mer-
chants and Savings bank will be desig-
mated as government repositories for
the reception of funds of savings
banks.
Kenosha is the last of the larger
cities of Wisconsin to secure the open
ing of a saving bank and in most of
the first class offices of the state the
banks have been in operation for more
than six months. The Racine bank was
opened the first Of August of Il st year
and it is declared that it hos proved
"a most successful one. Foreigners in
Kenosha have shown their interest in
the new industry Of the postoffice de-
partment and repeated inquiries have
been made at the local office in regard
to the opening of the bank

ROB PRAIRIE DEPOT
Burglars Enter Station Of
Chicago 4 Northwestern
and Get Small Booty.
SAFE is FOUND OPEN TODAY

The station Of the Northwestern
Railway Company at the village of
Pleasant Prairie, was entered by burg
lars some time Friday night or early
this morning and when Thomas Yates,
the agent for the company at the
lHPrairie'' reached the station this
morning he found that the safe of
the company had been forced open
and the burglars had escaped with
money to the amount Of few dollars
and with a couple of fur caps. The
men, who are supposed to have been
men who were returning from the ice
fields made their entrance to the place
by breaking open, one Of the rear win
dows of the station. Agent Yates had
locked up the station just after nine
o'clock and he feels certain that the
safe was properly locked, At that
time he saw no one of suspicious
nature hanging about the building.
Yates had left an almost. new overc0at
hanging in the office within an arm IS
reach of the safe which was looted.
but the men evidently overlooked the
coat. Friday afternoon there was con-
siderable money in the safe at the
station and when the agent closed up
| for the night he took the money with
the exception of little small change
with him and it is his opinion that
the total amount received by the burg
lars could not have exceeded three dol
/ lars. The report of the burglary was
| sent to the sheriff at an early hour
this morning and he at once got busy
and telephoned to all points along the
railway asking that he be notified of
the appearance of any suspicious char
acters, but up to a late hour this after
noon no trace of the men had been
found. 1t is thought that the men were
pretty well acquainted with conditions
in the depot and that they knew Just
about what they were going to find
before they opened, the place. Some
Of the Pleasant Prairie people think
it possible that the burglary was not
the work of ice men, but IF some poo
pie who resided in the village.

Charge of Horse Stealing Fails But
Accused Held OIL Another Charge.


Fred Lichtenteller, arrested short
time ago after a five year search on
the part of the police and the sheriff
had preliminary hearing before
Judge Randall on Wednesday after
noon on a charge of grand larceny.
Lichtenteller had been charged with
stealing a horse belonging to August
Paasch of the town of Bristol, but
when the district attorney looked IN
to the facts in the case he found that
the evidence would only warrant q
charge of larceny as bailee. Lichtena
teller declares that the horse which
he took was bought from Paasch and
that the two had an agreement that
Lichtenteller was to work on the farm
for year, the horse to be part OF
his wages. The bond of Lichtenteller
was fixed at $500 and he returned to
the county Jail. It is possible that
the attorney for the accused man may
seek to secure his release on a writ OF
habeas corpus.

The business men of the city expect
great things of the new Retail Mer-

of the association should also result

of credits in the city IN all lines of
retail business and it viii be impossi-

The good customers are the ones
who pay for these bad accounts in
the long run and the general trading

Reports from State Show
Many Farmers Are EA-
perimenting with Beets.
$4,000 ACRES PLANTED
Factories in This Section of the State
Plan for a Large Increase in Bust
ness During Coming Years Weather
Causes Disappointment to Growers.

a review of the past year in the
beet sugar industry by Richard Wag-
ner, president Of the Wisconsin Sugar
company, which operates several big
factories in the rural districts Of Wis
consln, shows that larger number of
Wisconsin farmers raised sugar beets
last year than ever before, there being
nearly 100000 received by the far
mers from the Wisconsin beet sugar
companies in 1911.
"The farmers of Wisconsin, says
Mr.. Wagner, "haye taken up the rails
ling of sugar beets to such an extent
THAT the four sugar beet factories To-
Gated in this state were crowded be-
yond capacity to take care of last sea-
son s crop. This indicates that the
growing Of sugar beets is adapted to
Wisconsin soil and climatic conditions,
and farmers who have grown sugar
beets since the industry was first es-
tablished here ten years ago have
found that it is not only profitable
cash crop, but that the green tops are
good feed for farm stock and that the
successful growing of sugar beets bene-
fits the soil and makes these roots a
JaO;ro hIo orox
/" About thirty thousand acres in
Wisconsin were planted in sugar beets
last season and the crop produced from
these acres was more than the four ex-
listing factories could conveniently take
care of. This company will increase the
capacity of its factories and is consid-
ering the building of several additional
factories as there are some desirable
locations in the state where enough
beets can be secured, but on account of
freight costs, are too far distant from
existing factories
9The annual consumption of sugar
hundred million pounds, representing a
value of ten million dollars or about
$4,000 per day. Only about one-fourth
of this sugar is now produced in the
state, but from the progress SO far
made it would seem that in a few years
all the sugar consumed here will be
produced in Wisconsin. This will mean
that instead of sending away ten mil
lion dollars annually, to pay our sugar
bill, this sum will remain in the state
to be widely distributed among our
own people and therefore is double
gain.
" Michigan, where the beet sugar in
dustrv was commenced only a few
years earlier than in Wisconsin, is now
the largest producer of sugar in the
United States. Last year Michigan
grew about 100000 acres of sugar
beets, which supplied sixteen large fac
tories, and not only produced enough
sugar for home consumption, but a
large surplus for distribution among
the neighboring states.
"Beet sugar is just as good as cane
sugar. 1t is physically and chemically
the same substance and is generally
a much cleaner product because it is
manufactured in a cool climate, free
from insects and flies as. compared with
tropical cane sugar, which not only
contends with the above objections but
frequently lies around for months on
.wharfs and in holds of vessels where
it is subjected to all kinds of unsani-
tary influences.
