(By PROF. L. swINEY.)

The raising Of geese is necessarily
conducted for the most part on a
small scale. This Is due to the re-
quirements of the birds with regard
to range and also to their breeding
habits and the expense connected
with maintaining large establish
ment for rearing them.
Geese are the most homogeneous of
all domestic fowls. 80 that it follows
that large number Of expensive gan
ders would be necessary for conduct
Ing the business on any extensive
scale. AS a rule ganders mate with
only two or three, rarely four, geese.
Geese require extensive range They
thrive on green pasturage and water,
even without the addition OF other
food 10 their diet It is practically
impossible to rear goslings without a
liberal supply OF green vegetable food,
such as clover. roots, cabbage, etc.
Geese have no crops, like hens, and
turkeys, and as . result they require

more soft feed, and food should be
given at more frequent intervals.
Geese do not become fully mature
until the second or third season. and
good results of breeding should not
be expected from younger birds.

quently ranging from 80 to rs years,
end instances are recorded where
they have exceeded 100 years Of age.
Good geese may be profitably kept
for breeding purposes until 25 years Of
age, but ganders should not be kept
past s years. They should then be
replaced by younger birds.
Two common breeds of geese, the
Embden and Toulouse, are descended
from the Graylag goose of Europe,
and the brown and white China geese
are thought to have descended from
the wild goose of Asia.

IcHAs. COON TRIES sv!c;se
Former Deputy Insurance Commits
sioner Shoots Self In Breast
Calls His Life Failure.

Milwaukee.-Charles A. Coon,
deputy state railroad commissioner
in 1897 and 1898, and for many
years connected wit hthe state ad-
ministrations at Madison, attempted
suicide in the Offices of the Wiscon-
sin Advancement association, Cas-
well block, by shooting himself in
the left breast
He was found by A. D. Campbell
former state immigration commits
sioner, lying on the floor with blood
streaming from gaping wound il
his breast. Mr.. Campbell had lef
him in the Office only a short time
before. A revolver with one empt.
shell was gripped in Mr. Coon's right
hand.
Mr.. Coon was removed to Emer-
gency hospital, where an operation
was performed in an attempt to save
his life. The bullet was extracted,
His condition Is regarded as critical.
Mr.. Coon makes his home In the
Carlyle flats, 555 Belleview place.
He is married and has three children.
Marcy, aged a; Alice, aged z, and
Charles, aged months.
The following letter was written
by Mr.. Coon and addressed to the
coroner:
Greeting This will not or must
not be much of case. Just a weak
man gone. Cause-foolishness
Another letter addressed to the
public gave history of the writer's
life and stated as a reason for Coon s
desire to die that he had never had
a definite calling in my life, but
have been content to be a general all
around man, fairly good at all
things. but not proficient at any one
thing"
Mr.. Coon was executive clerk I'M

Electors Are Opposed to Taft, bu'
Have No Thought of Voting for VIII
son-Suggests Meeting be Called.

Fond du Lac.-In letter ad-
dressed to William Mauthe. member
of the republican state central COM
mittee from the Sixth district, Otto
j. lander of Brillion, republican cleo
tor from this district, states that Il
elected he will be unable to cast his
vote for William H. Taft. He de-
clares he must cast it for Robert M.
La Toilette or some other progressive
candidate upon whom the repLbli-
cans might agree.
''If this determination on my part
does not meet with the approval OF
your committee" Mr.. lander writeS
II shall be glad to submit my resis-
nation at your request
Mr.. lander gave SIS his reason for
his attitude that President Taft "foF
the last four years has engaged in Il
vendetta against several states and
that Wisconsin has been one of the
worst sufferers"
THE republicans Of our state" he
declares, ARE literally up in arms
against Mr.. Taft"
Col. John Hicks. publisher of the
Oshkosh Northwestern and one OF
the republican presidential electors
at large, has given out statement
that in his opinion all the thirteen
republican electors from Wisconsin
would cast their votes against Pres.-
dent Taft. He added there was no
thought of throwing the vote to
Woodrow Wilson. He believes the
electors should meet and decide on a
plan of action.
Il think there is no question but
that all the republican electors In
Wisconsin will bolt Taft" said Mr.
Hicks. II know | shall not vote for
him, arG l believe the others feel the
same way. The only question is as
to whom we are to vote for. 1t
has been suggested that the thirteen
votes be cast for Senator La Toilette,
but we have no knowledge as to
whether that would be agreeable to
him. What the electors should do
is to meet and decide upon some plan
of action. Mr.. Zander's proposition
to vote for La Toilette or some other
progressive republican meets with
my approval There would certainly
be no thought of voting for Wilson. "
1t is understood here that c. G.
Cuttings, Racine, a republican presi'
Dental elector, has decided to resign,
as he has declared. that he will not
vote for President Taft if he Is
| elected.

CAR OF DYNAMITE IN BLAST
Explosion Near Manitowoc Kills Man
and Wrecks Building
Blown to Bits.

Manitowoc.-A carload of dyna-
mite in a small wooden shed, half a
mile west of the city limits, exploded
from an unknown cause, killing Jo-
seph Mlada, who owned the explo-
sive ,shattering the shed into splin-
tiers and tore up the earth to depth
of ten feet.
Trees in the vicinity were uprooted
and several plate glass windows in
the city were blown out by the
shock. In addition to this, the win
dows In twenty or thirty homes were
shattered.
The explosion created a short lived
panic in the city, it being feared that
one of the quarries located near the
ciey, where number of workmen are
employed, was blown up.
Mlada was a we'll known business
man. At the scene of the accident
all that could be found of his re-
mains were bits of human flesh scat
tered over considerable territory ad-
jacent to the shed, and remnants of
clothing.

STATES RISK PLAN
TO AID COMPANIES
Undue Competition improbable,
Says Commissioner ekern.
NEW LAW IN EFFECT SEPT. I
Four Different Life Insurance Policies
Viii Be Issued by State at Outset
System of Annuity to Be introduced
Later-State Liability Limited.

Madison. THAT the new state life
insurance plan which will become
operative about Sept. 1, instead of
doing harm to the private companies
now engaged in business in Wiscon-
sin, Will be distinct benefit In edu-
eating policyholders to better un-
derstanding and more liberal pa
tronage of private companies, Is the
opinion of Insurance Commissioner
Ekern. Mr. Ekern points out that
under the new law no person can
take out policy for more than
$4,000 and thinks that this provision
alone would be sufficient to protect
private business.
The Wisconsin state insurance idea
Is the result of the investigation by a
state legislative committee several
years ago of the life insurance situa-
ton in Wisconsin. The following
legislature passed laws under which
practically all of the big outside in
surance companies left the state and
have never returned.
AT the outset, four different poll
cies will be issued, and the number
may be increased later as the state
becomes proficient in the insurance
business. These four policies will be
the ordinary life, twenty-payment en-
dowment, ten payment endowment,
and term, to the age of IS years.
Later a system of annuities, some
thing like the French peasants
favorite system, will be introduced,
the annuities to begin when the bene-
ficiaries reach the age of Go years.
Ehe liability of the state in the new
order of affairs is limited to the
amount of money in the insurance
fund, this fund being derived from
premiums. interest, earnings and
other sources of revenue AS the
policies are limited to $4,000, the
annuities will be limited to $500 a
year, when the annuity plan goes

The wild Canada goose Is easily do
mesticated, and the ganders mate
with domestic geese. The crosses thus
obtained are known as mongrels and
are sterile. They are very highly
priced in the market and bring larger
prices than any other geese. The
rearing OF the wild Canada goose or
It's crosses is accomplished with con.
siderable difficulty, and can only be
accomplished after some experience.
In breeding mongrels, one wild
gander should be mated with a single
African or Toulouse goose. The gan.
der should be two or three years old.
Mongrels are best fattened during
cool weather in late autumn.
Experienced geese raisers realize
from two to seven dollars per year
