CRANBERRY GROWING BOOM
ING IN THE STATE

Madison Wis, May 4.-Cranber-
ries as a money making crop for
Wisconsin farmers is receiving much
attention this year, as is indicated
from the dozens of inquiries about
cranberry culture received by o. G..
Made, superintendent of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin cranberry sta
ton. That the northern counties are
most interested in the crop and that
many farmers who have marsh land
suitable for cranberry growing are
expected to start cranberry boys, are
also indicated from the letters re-
ceiVed. A big cranberry bog will be
started near Spooner this year and
another is under consideration near
Phillips.
Cranberries have wintered well in
this state and in only a few cases
are the vines hurt by the frost. A
considerable number of tests on flood
ing will be conducted at the univer-
sity cranberry station at Grand Rap
ids, Wis, this season and new
type of pump for supplying water to
boys will also be tried out.

and goes into a mans private business
too much and is not practical. They
say the expense to caHect the Income
Tax will be enormous Very few men
they say, will give a correct, honest
statement of his income. Men will
perjure themselves to save some
