MISSING APOLL0NIA MAN FOUND
Fred Otis, who Wandered Away
From Asylum Last June
Finally Located in
New Mexico.

Fred Otis, of Apollonia, who was
committed to the Chippewa Falls
home for feeble minded about seven
years ago, and who disappeared from
the home last June, recently made
himself known to brothers of the
Knights Templar at Ruicon, New
Mexico, who telegraphed to members
of the same order at Eau Claire to
meet him in Chicago last Friday.
Where the unfortunate man has
been between these two dates is a
mystery, as efforts were made at the
time of his disappearance to locate
him but he could not be found.
The message stated he was in des
titute circumstances when he made
himself known and this is no doubt
the reason he has been located at
this time. 1t was thought that he
had perished in the woods long be
fore this, and no doubt would have
soon perished at this time had he not
been a member of one of the national
orders, and had mind enough to find
brother member.

CITY TEAM WINS ONE, LOSES ONE
Gals, who in Turn Out

The basketball game Monday af-
ternoon, Ladysmith City VS.. Glen
Flora, was a rather one-sided affair."
the result being 70 to Is, in favor of
the latter. However this was not
surprising when the lineup of Glen
Flora is considered, four of the five
men being old college players, the
lineup of the team being:
Glen Flora: Magnus and Jipson,g;
MITCHELL c; Magnus and Van Pat
ter, f.
Ladysmith: McGath and Clark, g;
Ellington, c; Jung and McDermott, f.
The star player seemed to be for
ward Magnus, who made GA of 10
points for Glen Flora, while McDer-
mott made Z of the Is points for the
locals
The game Monday evening with
Rice Lake carries a different tale as
the locals, with the help of Van Pat
ter, were the winners by score Of
35 to "a, the Ladysmith team chang
ing the lineup by taking in Smith and
Van Patter, who did not play with
them in the afternoon

What yet comes will determine the
profit or loss to Mr.. Guthrie.
My argument to my fellows is
that the poor COW is not worth while.
None of us care to work for no pro-
fit. We can get the COW that will re-
turn us 500. per year or more. Even
with this COW we are getting little
enough for our labor.
When we study the four breeds of
dairy COWS: the Jersey, Holstein, AL
derney and Guernsey, we find it most
fascinating and if we are about to
make substantial investment in
some one of them, good business de-
mands tnat we Go give them studious
investigation.
We all know that the dairy farm is
the very best possible method Of
farming to conserve the soil fertility.
It is very much easier to keep up the
producing quality OF our most excel
lent soil by the dairy herd than it
is to regain fertility when once it is
lost,
Our farmers are just hustling to
get all Of the land cleared that is
possible by the opening of spring, that
they might keep as many cows as
possible upon their land. Commit
tees have been appointed and are at
work to lead to the bringing here of
several car loads of the best dairy
COWS, to the establishment of cream
cry, possibly a cooperative cream
cry, and to the accomplishment of
several other good things for our
farmers.
Having made very careful study
Of the soils and soil conditions of the
Northern part Of our State during the
asst four years, it was both easy and
natural that | should choose Rusk
County as the place for my home, for
| saw at once a much better growth
IF the clovers and grasses than | had

soil for the dairy COW, it gives me

HOME STATE AGAINST TAFT
Very Probable That Ohio Will Send
Progressive Delegation to
Republican Con-
= vention.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 2-Presi-
dent Taft has at last been forced TO
a realization of the fact that Ohio
his native state is against him.
this is demonstrated by the fact that
the President has authorized the an
nouncement that he will go into Ohio
the latter part of January for the
purpose of making several speeches.
This announcement comes on the
heels of the remarkable receptions
accorded to Senator LaFollette i'll
Ohio. is regarded in Washington as
a political situation of unusual sig
nificance.
Up to date the administration adj
yisers have been prone to declare
that the feeling of antagonism agains,
Taft in his own state has been ex-
aggerated. 1t has remained for Sen
ator LaFollette to demonstrate that
instead of being exaggerated this
feeling of hostility toward the ad-
ministration has been under-estima-
ted.
Senator LaFollette made his
speeches in Ohio under conditions
which might well have ruined the
meetings which had been arranged
for him He reached Ohio in the
midst of snow storm which later de-
veloped the proportions of blizzard.
These unfavorable weather conditions
were ignored by the thousands upon
thousands of voters who wished to
hear the progressive ideas of the Sen
ator from Wisconsin. In every city
where the Senator spoke the seating
capacity was entirely inadequate to
take care Of the voters who desired
to hear him. This was a remarkable
tribute to the man who had gone in
to the presidents home state for the
purpose of discussing the very ques-
tions which have subjected the Taft
administration to such severe criti-
cism
That these receptions were of a re-
markable nature was evidenced by
the fact that before Senator LaFol-
iette had left the borders of Ohio
announcement was made at the
White House that the President would
go to Ohio in January and make
several speeches. That the situation
there is grave one in SO far as it
relates to the fortunes of the present
occupant Of the White House is in
dicated by the fact that the President
in order to arrange his Ohio meet
ings, was compelled to postpone the
annual dinner at the W mite House

for the members of the United States

The Progressive members in
charge of Senator LaFollette's cam
paign have no fear that President
Taft will be able to check the tide
which has turned against him in his
)wn state. These managers long
lgo knew that Ohio was antiTaft
AS result of most through canvas
Of the situation in that state it has
developed that the President not on
Y viii be denied a solid ueIegation
rom his state to the Republican ma
eional convention but that he pro-
oably will find himself in the hum
iiiating position of being supported
)nly by the delegates from Hamilton
county, delivered to him by BOSS"
Cox, of Cincinnati, the man who was
so roundly denounced by Mr.. Taft
eight years ago, but whose municipal
ticket was endorsed and voted for
by the President in the elections last
November. The Cox ticket supported
by the President, by the way, was
defeated by the voters.

ENTERTAiNS EMPLOYEES.

A C. Thompson Of the Thompson
Mercantile Co, gave a banquet sup
per at his fine home Monday night
for his efficient corps of statesmen
and salesladies. Mr. Thomp-
son in a few wall-chCsen words
thanked his assistants for their CO.
operation in making the store popul-
ar with the public, by their courteous
treatment of patrons, and expressed a
desire that their loyalty should con-
tinue unabated throughout the year
just beginning.
Place cards were in the form Of
resolutions" and considerable mirth
was provoked by the various things
Sworn Off by each one, as narrated
on the cards. Most of the guests
were able to recognize their card
without turning it over to read the
name on the back
The comradeship and good feeling
existing in Mr. Thompson's store
must surely have been enchanced by
such an event as this and all will
commence the new year with re-
newed determination to do their best
to please employer and public.

REAL MISTRESS OF HOUSE
In oiden Days, Among other Accom-
Plishments, Woman Was Required
to Be Expert Carver.

In the matter Of old-time etiquette
at the table one recalls the part
played by the lady Of the household.
In the eighteenth century she was
mistress Of the ceremonies-she carv-
ed and she dealt the while her lord
merely pushed" the bottle.
She was also the menu, for II she
gave a dinner of several courses It
wal her duty to announce to the
guests. seated expectantly, what was
due to appear at table. A dinner OF
one course and she remarked that
they saw their dinner"
Then her powers Of gentle persua'
sion came into play. A guest when
he had stuffed sufficiently placed the
handles Of his knife and fork into his
plate. and the sight Of a knife in posi-
ton was the signal for the hostess to
inquire III he would please to have
something more"
In the art OF carving, Of course
the mistress Of any country house
was a past mistress. One recalls Lady
Mary Montagu's fight after perfec
ton under the wing Of a professional
carving master: "She took three les
sons a week, that she might be per
feet on her fathers public days; when
In order to perform her functioni
without Interruptions, she was forcet
to eat her own dinner alone an hou'
or 30 beforehand"
