NAVAL TOPICS PROMINENT
Insanity and Suicide Caused by
Attempts to Master Lloyd

London. Aug. 3.-Excitement over the
naval situation has now quieted down
TO considerable extent and political In
torest ,s centred In the Opposition's
frequent attempts TO defeat tho gov
ernmont on division In the House OF
Commons. Two or three times the
Tnionists have como near succeeding
By taking advantage OF snap votes iii
tho early morning hours, but the gov
ernment has always succeeded in mus
tering n majority and is safe enough
when there is a good attendance.
The naval situation, however, sill
offers chances which are not being
neglected. one If tho most interest

that no sheep could bite him ana

that of the Yankee soldier who once

If locating in the hardwood sections,
it is a decided advantage to purchase
land from which the large timber has
been cut for some years, and where
the stumps are already begun TO rot.
Stump some of your land every year If
possible, even if it is only one acre,
thus adding to your area capable OF in
tense cultivation 1t is also well to
brush over and put into shape for
pasturage just as much of the land az
possible. 1t should be remembered
that wherever brush is growing it be.
comes harder to clear year after year
and consequently an effort should be
made to go over it as much as posi-
BILE so as to kill the brush. Sheep
come in very handily for the purpose
and they will not only keep down the
brush but also make money for this
farm. They do not require very much
feed for winter months. Take good
care of manure produced on the farm
and apply it before it has been allow
ed to leech by becoming wet with
rains and ferment. Many new set
tiers make the mistake of thinking
that because the soil is new it is not
necessary to apply fertilizer on 1T.
l know of no section where an appli-
cation of barnyard manure is not 60
ing to be of any help to the soil. This
barn manure should not be used in
heavy applications, but rather should
be spread over as much territory as
possible. To the new settler | would
say, "Stick to your job and work out
as little as absolutely necessary, but
rather spend most of your energies in
developing your land" 1t is some
times necessary with the man with
little money to work out, but in doing
so it should always be borne in mind
that the primary object is to start a
farm.
In a new section it is of great i'm
portance if farmers can begin to CO.
operate early. Cooperation in the
buying of pure bred sires, the use OF
farm machinery, and in buying seed,
selling potatoes and other produce.
Grade up your stock and plant good
acclimated seed. Do not be discour-
aged if things don't go just to suit you
at first, for you will come out all right
If you persevere.

HOW TO PREPARE BEANS

To Cook String Bean.--Cut blossom
end from the pod and pull it back,
removing the string without tearing,
then cut a string from the outside of
the pod; in this way one is quite sure
that the string portion is removed.
Cut the pods crosswise into pieces
of one-half an inch, throw them into
boiling water to which you have add
ed one teaspoon Of salt; boil rapidly
for five minutes, then simmer gently
for three-quarters of an hour; drain,
return them to sauce pan, add pep
per. butter and serve If they have to
be kept hot stand over hot water.
To serve with cream sauce: Boil as
in the first recipe, make one-half pint
of cream sauce while the beans are
draining, put in beans, cover and
make hot.
Boston Baked Beans.-One quart of
small white soup beans, one pound
salt or picked pork, two tablespoons
molasses. Soak beans over night.
The next morning wash them and put
them into a kettle of boiling water
and boil them until the skins will
crack when you blow nthem. They
must not be soft. Score the rind of
the pork and boil it with the beans
When the skin Of the beans crack,
take them from the fire, drain and
turn them at once into the bean pot;
bury pork in the center until only the
scored skin remains above the BEANS
Put teaspoon of salt and the mo-
lasses into one pint of water in which
the beans were boiled; mix this and
pour over the beans in the pot. This
should just come to the surface Put
on the lid and bake in moderate
oven from six to eight hours. Add
more of the bean water as that il
the pot evaporates. If properly done
each bean will be soft; no two beans
should stick together. The water will
have entirely evaporated and the
beans will be a dark, rich brown in
color. Ii the beans have been boiled
too long they will not keep shape If

WOMAN PLACED
ON FAIR BOARD
Governor MCGovern Appoints
Four New Members.
z MILWAUKEEANS TO RESIGN
Mrs. Ada r. Howie, Elm Grove; n
z. Kruger, Beaver Dam; D. w.
Larkfn and G. w. Kuntz,
Milwaukee, Named.

Northumberland McGovern an
nounced the long delayed appoint
ments of members of the state board
Of agriculture. The appointments are
for terms which expired in January,
and they include one woman.
They are as follows: Mrs. Ada F.
Howie. Elm Grove, to succeed Grant
u. Fisher, GAINESVILLE, as member-at.
large; Henry e. Kruger, Beaver Dam,
Second congressional district; George
u. Kuntz Milwaukee, Fifth congress
sional district; Danford w. Larkin,
Sturgeon Bay, Ninth congressional
district, succeeding Charles F. Meyer,
Oconto.
Two of the new members of the
board, Mrs. HOWE and Mr.. Kruger
are farmers. Mrs. HOWE has dairy
farm, and is well-known figure on
programs at farmer Institutes. She
had charge Of the poultry exhibit at
the last state fair. For many years
she has been an exhibitor at the state
fair, and all who know her say that
there is no woman in the state better
fitted to be a member Of the board.
The appointment was greatly com
mended by all who are interested in
the state fair.
Mr.. Kruger who is a member Of
the legislature, served three years in
the National Guard, is a graduate Of
the short course in agriculture of the
state university and one of the direc-
tors Of the Wisconsin Experiment as
sociation. He has taken many prizes
for pedigreed seed, won the worlds
championship on the best peck of
wheat and also on the best peck of
barley. His occupation is farming and
the growing of pure bred live stock.
Mr.. kuntz, who is one of the pro-
prietors of the Kirby house, Milwau-
kee, has been interested in farming
since his boyhood. He has large farms
at Reesville, and at Merengo, Ash
land county. He has been registrar
of the United States land Office at
Ashland and member of the Democrat
&c state central committee.
George McKerrow, who was former
ly in the old Fifth district, is now in
the First district, which is represent
ed by G. H. Everett, Racine J. J.
Nelson is in the Eighth district, which
is now represented by A. w. Prehn,
Wausau. The apportionment made by
the last legislature placed some of the
old members in districts which were
represented on the board.
Mr.. McKerrow, who retires. has
been member Of the board for
twelve years, and was a member of
the old board before the reorganiza-
ton He is probably the best in
formed man on any state board in
this country, and more widely famil-
lar with state fair management
throughout the various states than
any other man. He has a antional
reputation as an importer of sheep
and his exhibits have won prizes at
all the leading state fairs and nation
al exhibitions.
The resignation of Grant u. Fisher
arrived at the executive office soon
after the announcement of the ap-
pointment Of his successor. 1t is re-
ported that William MacLaren and
Frank Cannon, both of Milwaukee,
will soon resign and the governor will
then be able to. complete the contem-
plated reorganization of the board.
