HUNTING SEASON.

The dear hunting season in Wis
consin closed last Saturday night.
There were not quite as many human
beings killed this year as there were
deer, but there were enough sent to
the happy hunting grounds to make
it certain that the forests of Wiscon-
sin are dangerous in which to be dur
ing the open season. Last year there
were sixteen persons killed and twen-
ty-six seriously wounded. This year
there were twelve killed and fourteen
wounded.

DANCY DRAINAGE DISTRICT
NOTES.

When the dredge blew up in the
Dancy Drainage district, VIM. Brey
OF Milladore was seriously hurt and
sued and got judgment of $1,000
against the contractors, Forrestal &
Downey of Milwaukee. The supreme
court has reversed the decision.
The low water in the Little Eau
Pleine river makes it an especially
fine time for dredging out the mouth.
The excavating and the removal of
the old stone piers will be let as two
separate contracts.
Edward Lynch of Grand Rapids,
who resigned as president of the
drainage commission, has been sue
ceeded by III. M. Jones of Auburndale.
Mr.. Lynch and other Grand Rapids
men have large holdings on Bear
Creek in Milladore township.
G. G. Knoller of Dancy, sowed tim
othy on the marsh July fifth and cut
over ton to the acre this fall from
the new seeding. Here is a sugges-
tion for those who have land too wet
to seed when the spring rains are
abundant.
Mr.. Spring of Peoria, ILL.,, who has
marsh land at Pine Knoll will do ex-
tensive ditching in the spring to in
tercept the water from the high land
before it reaches the marsh.
A new iron extension of forty feet
has been added to the bridge over
The Little Eau Pleine river at the
foot of Rice Lake, making the bridge
one hundred feet long. Now the
water can get under in time of flood
without washing out the dixie. Rice
Lake he's been dry all the fall.

CCURRENCES OF LONG AGO.
ITEMS OF NEWS BOILED DOWN FROM THE
PILOT THIRTY-SIX YEARS AGO

cations were for storm at an early
hour, still before the time for form
ing the procession, clear summer
sky smiled down upon the bright
earth. Balmy breezes shook the
emerald drops from leaf and flower,
and all nature seemed ready to join
in the glad rejoicing of our centennial
birthday. At nine o'clock the marshal
of the day, w. w. DeVoe, formed
the procession at the court house
square headed by cornet band; then
followed the Germania guards, orators,
readers and officers of the day; the
tiremen and the hook and ladder
company came next, and then the
citizens followed by the ''bummers,"
motley crowd, but orderly as mill
tary company. After marching g
through the principal streets of the
city they returned to shady seats in
the grove prepared for them on the
Shutter block. Hon. B. Ringle, mayor
and president of the day, set forth
briefly, but eloquently, the object
which had brought the people to-
gether. Rev. J. w. Hageman offered
up a fervent prayer and G. V. Bar
deem read the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. Gen. ]. A. Kellogg was
orator of the day. B. w. James gave
national toast to which G. f.
Eldred responded. This closed the
ceremonies. The ladies of the M. E.
church served the dinner, which fol-
lowed, after which all repaired to the
fair grounds where races and games
were in order. The only accidents
was that of Harry Drake, who, in assist
ing to fire salute had his hand torn
and badly filled with powder by the
premature discharge of a cannon. At
the same time j. Goerling had his
thumb torn and his face badly burnt.
Thus the DAY has passed and we are
fairly launched upon the waves of
another century. May it be filled
with patriotic deeds; may the flag
double its stars and may the next
centennial dawn brightly upon a still
free and happy people.

VALUABLE PRIZE.

Everything from school building
to the pupils wearing apparel is in
cluded in the open air school offered
by the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis
association to the city of ten thousand
population or above, making the high
est per capita sale of Red Cross
Christmas seals. This prize, an.
nounced by campaign manager, Otto
f. Bradley, is not only the most
unique but probably the most valu-
able ever offered in a Christmas seal
campaign.
The most important item of the
equipment, all of which has been
donated to the association, is
the house. The Kenyon Cottage
company of Waukesha has offered to
give building suited for the purpose.
The sides of the main room are open,
but can be closed in case of storm,
and a smaller cloak room will be
heated.
Ihe desks nave been donated Dy
The American Seating company of
Chicago, the cooking range By the
Brand Stove company, and the cups,
plates and otherdishes, by the Frank
furth Hardware company of Milwau-
kee. Other articles of the equipment
are Mackinaw pajama suits, felt boots,
mittens, warm caps and cots.
Three open air schools are now in
operation in Wisconsin, two of them
having been won as prizes in former
Christmas seal campaigns, and one
having been established by the Mil
waukee schools. This is the first
prize to include the building, however,
former ones only including the equip
| ment.

DAMAGE BY SAN JOSE SCALE
Probably No other Insect, If Uneon'
troIled, Capable Of Doing Greater
Damage to Fruit.

The pear in common with other
fruits is subject to the depredations
of insects, among the most important
Of which are the codllng moth and the
San Jose scale.
The larya Of the codling moth which
affects the apple to such an alarming
extent, entailing loss Of millions of
dollars, Is also more or less Injurious
to the pear though to much les ex'
tent than to the apple.
Probably no other insect, If uncon'
troled is capable of doing greater
damage to the fruit industry Of this
country than the San Jose scale, Near
ly all kinds OF deciduous fruit trees
are more or less subject to It's attacks,
It multlples and spreads with such
great rapidity that unless controlled
It is but u question of short time un-
III the tree Is ruined and death follows,
Nevertheless, this insect can be con-
trolled at comparatively small cost,
80 that It Is no longer to be regarded

ARB0R DAYS OF THE FARMER
Interest Added to Rural Life by Set
ting Out Trees to Commemorate
Important Events.

Everyone ought to cultivate a
friendship for trees, and along with
his animal friends have a few tree
friends. He could do no better to
commemorate an event in his family
life than to set out tree and name
It with the name of what he would
remember--have arbor days Of his
own.
Where a family has been sentimen-
tai enough to do this you will find
trees about the house named John,
Henry, Susie, Clara, etc, in memory
Of the birth of the children. You
will see a tree somewhere near the
gate called the telephone tree, be-
cause 1t was planted the year the tele-
phone was put in the house.
There will be another tree some
where near that one called the free
delivery tree, commemoratlng the year
the mail was first brought to the
door, There will also be some small
trees, among them the auto tree, in
memory Of the first automobile owned
by the farmer, and the air tree, to re-
member the thrill experienced upon
seeing the first aeropane,

A great many factors enter into the

should be cut back In this article,
says a Colorado bulletin only gen

ave of the best limbs should be cut
back to eight or twelve inches, max
ing the cut just in the direction in
which the limb should grow.
All trees should be kept low

lower limbs when 1t is not necessary,
