Land is cheap now and can be OBJ
tanned on very easy terms-practically
to suit the buyer, but the opportunities
to procure good land are going fast
ard within a few years the chance to-
take advantage of increasing values
will be gone. Acreage which was al
lowed to GO for taxes few years ago is
now selling for from $40 TO S25 dollars
an acre. Land in northern Wisconsin
will never be valued less than now,
with the increasing "back to the land"
movement which is causing thousands
from the overcrowded cities to take
their families out into the country, the
openings where the poor man can get
start will become fewer each year.
One of the best things about Villas
county lands is that no.one who is inter.
ested in making profitable deal can
lie about it, It's disadvantages are too
evident to allow any fanciful stories
about getting rich over night while
the fortunate buyer sits around and
listens 10 the birds sing. There are
stumps to be cleared off the land be-
fore 1t can become the right kind OF a
+, farm - and there is nothing on learth
so unsightly and 50 obstinate as pine
stump.
Villas county is no place for q lazy
man. The man who is afraid to work
or hasn't the will or force of character
to stick to his work until he reaps his
reward, will not succeed here.
But for the man who can work and
who likes Ia work when he can get the
results of his labor for himself and
his family, for the man who is not
easily discoura ged and who would pre-
| fer to be his own boss on his own land
than to work for anotherIin crowded
country or city, and whoswould see his
family gre wing up into healthy man.
hood and wOmanhood, there is no place

Here he can secure the iDyigorating

are found on the frontier and at the
same time ENJOY all the blessings of

from the city Of Chicago, he can buy

SOME 6OOD WORK THAT OUR TOWN
BOARD IS DOIN6 FOR ITS VILLAGERS

A notable improvement in the
appearance of River ST., and one
of great convenience to the resi-
dents along there, is the recent
extension of the cement side walk
from Geo. E. O'Connor's resi-
dence to Ed Laucau's. 1t is an
improvement that has long been
needed in that part Of town and
will be greatly appreciated by all
who use that side walk.
The highway is also being re-sur-
faced with gravel. Work on a
concrete retaining wall at the north
end of the bridge is now in pro-
gless and the immediate approach
to the bridge will be widg6ed sew
eral feet when finished. A ce-
ment walk also starts at the bridge
and will run northward for some
distance replacing the old wooden
one upon which, for some time
past one enld experience the
real thing in sea sickness by SIM
ply being courageous enough to
travel over it. aBlessed'' are the
side walk builders.

SAILORS ny BAD CONDITION AF-
TER cLINelNG TO scHooNER's
RIGGING FOR THIRTY HOURS.
Captain Mistook Hatteras Lights for
Diamond Shoals Lightship, and the
Vessel is Total Loss on the Rocks.
Crew of Seven Safe.

Norfolk, Va, Jan. 20.-After cling
ing more than thirty hours to the
masts and rigging of their sunken
vessel, the four remaining members
of the crew of the three-masted
schooner Harry Prescott were rescued
at iaybreak today by the revenue
cutter Itasca, which proceeded to Will
mington, N. c.
The four men were nearly exhaust
ed. After resting for awhile on the
jibboom of their vessel late yesterday
afternoon, they were compelled to
take to the rigging again at nightfall
and there lashed themselves for a
night that proved to be one of great
suffering in the face of a severe north
west wind that carried the tempera-
ture below freezing.
1t was 8 o'clock Thursday night
that the Prescott, bound for Whining
ton, N c., with cargo of salt, struck
on the inner Diamond Shoals when
her master mistook the Hatteras light
for the Diamond Shoals lightship. It
was a battle for life from the start
with the seven members of the
schooner's crew, and the Prescott's
cabins soon filling, her men were
without food and drink from midnight
Thursday until their rescue, save
for what little they were able to Sc
cure about their persons when it was
found that the ship was doomed and
nothing remained but to take to the
rigging.
Capt. v. R. Philbrook, master of the
Harry Prescott, is in bad physical
condition as the result of severe slf-
fering encountered when he, with
Mate T. S. Smith and Steward George
o. Robins, cast themselves into the
sea from the masts of the Prescott
in order that they might be rescued
by life savers. They are being cared
for at the Hatteras station. The Itas-
ca arrived off Hatteras at 9 o'clock
last night, but it was found impossible
to reach the shipwrecked mariners un-
til dayybreak today.

TAFT
GOES TO A FIRE
At ALMA MATER
OLD SOUTH MIDDLE DoRMlToRY
THREATENED BY FLAMES
YESTERDAY.
Chief Executive, Who Was in Connec-
ticut City on Visit, Was Among
Those Who Rushed to the confla-
grafton. .lsS n.b

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 20.-Pres-
ldent Taft "cut'' chapel at Yale this
morning to go to fire. That fire was
in Old South Middle Hall, ON the COL
lege campus. The president had tum-
bled out of bed early and had left
MS hotel to go to College Chapel, only
a block away. This was at rust s
O'Clock. He was passing by Phelps
gateway when he saw the heavy black
smoke beating down into the college
campus.
With all the ardor of his college
days he joined the rush of under
graduates, who were streaming pell-
nell towards the blazing dormitory.
He mingled with the crowd of stud
ents standing in a back row, and for
twenty minutes watched the f1remen
at work until he saw the red helmets
of the f1re-fghters poking out of the
upper windows. He then knew che
danger was over and, turning about,
walked to chapel, arriving there as
President Hadley had concluded his
prayer. rywyWWN
While the president stood among
the undergraduates on the icy walks
of the campus he was not generally
recognized. Every face was turned
towards Old South Middle. After he
started towards chapel, however,
number of the students gave him
warm greeting.
The program of the stay of Presi-
dent Taft at Yale today included at
tendance at the meeting of the Yale
corporation and luncheon with Presi-'
dent Hadley of the university later.
At the corporation meeting was
submitted report of the Yale expe-
dition to Peru, headed by Prof. Hiram
Bingham, in which were made known
for the first time some notable dis
coveries of pre-h historic human and
animal remains, as well as the ruins
of several Inca, or pre-Inca, cities.
Old South Middle is the connecting
link between the old college and the
present one. Within its walls Nathan
Hale of Revolutionary fame, lived.
The original structure was put up in
1880. In this building lived Noah
Webster and later John G. Calhoun.
