CONRATH COMMERCIAL CLUB
WILL DISCUSS ONION GROWING
RAISING or THAT VEGETABLE DISCUSSED IN INTERESTING
LETTER JAMES FARLEY

While the Conrath Commercial
Club has not been dormant, by any
means, during the recent cold spell,
yet with the return of our usual
balmy weather at this time Of the
year they propose to enliven their
regular meetings with more than
usual vigor. While the general bus
mess of the club will be attended
to in usual form, the main subject
to be brought before the meeting will
be the discussion Of the onion and
it's culture in Rusk County.
A general invitation Is extended to
all, whether members or not, and
particularly to members of clubs in
our neighboring towns.
The Club expects to get an express
sion from every one present, giving
their opinion as to the best kind OF
onion to grow in this section Of UP.
per Wisconsin. Come prepared to
say which is best, new or old land.
The kind and amount Of fertilizer
which in your opinion is best: also,
do you prefer sets or seed, ETC., etc.
While the value of the onion as
heath preserving vegetable may not
be discussed at the meeting, it smay
not be amiss to remind those who
look down on the onion because of
it's lack of pleasant odor. 1t is one
of the most valuable plants grown,
no. only for the hundreds of dollars
per acre it brings the grower, but
from medicinal point of view; as
witness the fact that it is one of
the best disinfectants for the sick
room known. AS an eatable plant,
served in many ways, 1t is unsur-
p 4ssed. If you are to be exposed to

OTlVe or long stay OUT VI uOoIS
when the mercury is trying to reach
the bulb, before going out eat a
raw, red onion and you will soon note
that the cold has less effect on you.
Again, those Of you who roll around
for hours after retiring and cannot
catch that restful sleep which you
crave, eat a raw onion before retiring
and, my word for it, you will sleep
the sleep of the just. Those or the
same floor may be kept awake by
the odor of raw onions, but never
mind-sleep on, and If they cannot
stand it, let them get up and do as
you did. Then everyone will s.eep.
But to say a word in regard to the
growing Of onions. 1t is long past
the experimental stage and has
proved to be one of the best paying
crops we have yet experimental with.
A woman living within two miles
of Conrath not only performed her
usual household duties and part of
the dairy work, but sewed and cult
waited one acre of onions during the
past summer, from which she har-
vested 500 bushels. This was with
but Indifferent care. If she could
have given the crop the proper
amount of attention, she would easily

els. This should be sufficient to
convince all doubters, if there are
any who do not believe in the fertil-
ity of our unsurpassed soil and eli
mate for the culture of oniors.
It is not only on the onion crop that
we base our claim of having the ideal
soil, but, to further illustrate what
can be done. will mention one
more fact that should be noted by
some of the southern land holders
who think they have the only land
and climate that will produce two
crops in one season.
AS witness againk Our neighbor
AS witness again: Our neighbOr,
Harry Davis, who is young and pro-
gressive farmer and one who fully
believes in the story of the early bird
ETC. From his energetic work of
last season, he has proven that two
blades of grass can be made to grow
where one has grown before. Not
only that, but that two root crops
can be grown on the same land In
the same season. Believing in the
"early bird" way of doing things, he
planted potatoes last spring as early
as conditions would permit, and sent
them to market in July, receiving
$1.25 a bushel. Then he sowed tur-
nips on the same ground, from which
he harvested a bumper crop, which
helped to keep his herd of cattle in
prime condition durias the chilly
winds of the past month.
Again l say to the doubter: Come
to Rusk county (and in particular,
that part surrounding Conrath) in
the growing season and let
us show you that our articles are not
overdraWn.
Remember, the evening of March
2 Is the date of the meeting. Come.
We are prepared to axe care of an
overflow meeting.

Wants to Search for
 Supposed Buried Gold
New Mexico Man Thinks Arkansas Treasury Was Robbed
 During War.

Little Rock, Ark, May 15.-What premises to be modern Captain Kidd" story has developed in this state. Don't laugh, ,here may be something to it, out just-maybe.
 Secretary of State Earle w. Hodges received letter this morning from R. Mayberry of Las Cruces, N. M., asking what percentage he would be allowed to keep if he should find the buried money which was supposed to have been taken from the state treasury when Little Rock was cap- tured by the Federals in the Civil War. MT. Mayiberry seems to be really in earnest and wants lawful right" to look into the matter, as he thinks he has information which would lead. to the discovery of the buried treasure. His letter is as fol- lows:
 "Mr. State Secretary, Little Rock,
 Ark:
 Dear Sir:-I take the liberty of writing you this letter of inquiry ill regard 70 records of the state treasury showing or having any funds in the state treasury on hand at the time when Little Rock was captured. Why l ask This question is have very strong reasons from what I have learned and know at the time of Little Rocks capture that just before it was taken the treasury was robbed and carried away and buried by the rob- bers on account of .heir fear of being pursued.
 " Now should be glad to have a lawful right to look after same and to know what part I would be allowed provided I should be successful in finding the buried treasure.
 Hoping to hear from you soon, am, Yours respectfully,
 "R. MAYBERRY.
 Las Cruces, New Mexico"
 Mir. Hodges replied to MT. Mayber- ry. saying that he though. the state would be very W Hing to give him one. half of the money, provided that he found $1,OOO,O00, and that he expected that he would be permitted to keep half of any amount that he found.
