Wisconsin Aids Its Farmers

There is one advantage that must
not be overlooked by the people of
our state or settlers elsewhere who
are looking for a location. Wiscon-
sin is recognized as one Of the most
progre ssive states in the country. It's
laws, its courts, its university, its
schools and its people are progress
sive, with the result that In agricul-
tural instruction Wisconsin leads all
other states. No longer does the new
settler live in ignorance OF agricul-
tural surroundings or conditions. For
the asking, he can ascertain the
particular soil he possesses and its
best uses Grains, suitable for grow
ing, are furnished him, SO that many
of the possibilities of failure which
surrounded the average farmer, are
avoided
Wisconsin affords uuequalled op-
portunities for the farmer It's great
agricultural college leads the. way
for all others in the country. 1t is
educating, thousands OF young boys
and many older boys to find real
gold mines in Nisconsin's soil with
out wasting lifetime in useless
prospecting.

The Conservation of Wild Animal
Life

The purpose of the protection of
wild life may be briefly discussed
under the following heads:
ta) To increase useful species for
the benefit of all the people.
Oh To encourage those species
that are beneficial as scayengers or
destroyers of insect pests or the
seeds of noxious weeds.
tc) To prohibit the introduction Of
injurious species into this country.
td) To protect those species that
are of interest to the student of ma
ture.
te) To conserve the wild life so
that coming generations may enjoy
some OF the benefits and pleasures
that we enjoy.
With few exceptions during all the
ages of history, SO far as capable of
human ownership, the wild life of
commonwealth has been held TO be
. in the state for the benefit Of all the
people. 1t is obvious, in view OF this
common ownership, that the people
of the state ought to by legislation
and by arousing public sentiment to
provide i'll every way possible for
the increase of useful species. The
government is providing for the in
crease Of useful food fishes. In Wis
consin we have eight state fish hat
cherries that are propagating fish and
sending them out TO restock the
streams of the state. We have laws
enacted for the purpose of protecting
fish during spawning seasons, as
we'll as laws for the protection of
our valuable mammals and birds.
1t is estimated that the loss in
this country due to insects and nox-
ious weeds is about 1000, 900 900 an
nua1iy. Bird study is no trifling fad.
The bird life represents public
property protected by laws that are
beginning to be respected and en-
forced. 1t is to be regretted however
that boys and girls pass through our
schools, who are not able TO recog-
nize our commonest forms of Wild
life, and what is worse do not care
to learn or know anything about
them. We must teach the children
the human value aud Importance of
wild life. We must suggest things for
the children to do that will tend TO
increase the valuable wild life about
the community. 1t is positive, not
negative teaching that will result in
the most good, not only along the
lines of interesting wild life, but
along the lines OF conservation.
The Tilted States government recos
nized this Importance Of protecting
its people from the introduction OF
injurious pests. However, before the
National Government became inter
ested, there were introduced some
Injurious species. as the English spar
row and the German Carp. These
have also been introduced in man,
very injurious insect pests and plan
disease, as Gypsy moth. brown-tailet
moth. cotton.bol weevil, hessian fly
chinch-bug. potato wart. and white
pine blister. We have National law

gers, and these laws should nave tHe
hearty upsport of all the people.
Every state as we'll as the Can
adian Provinces, and Mexico have
enacted laws for the protection Of
wild life There are officials, in some
states called game wardens, and in
others, game detectives, game guar
dians, and game inspectors. No mat
ter what terms designate the Sc Of
| ficilas their duties are similar, and
for the conservation of wild life. The
| people of community can do much
| to lessen the breaking of law In
many counties Of our own state the
people are organizing for the pur-
pose of protecting our wild life from
! wanton destruction and from the
"poacher' and game hog" While
some of the former antagonism
against game laws still exists, it ma
be safely predicted that in the near
future, every county will organize TO
conserve it's wild life People should
realize however that the office of
game warden is a difficult one to
fill, and it is the duty OF every good
citizen to lend this important public
servant every assistance and encOur
agement in the discharge Of his du-
ties
DR. w T. Hornaday, writing on the
destruction of nur wild animal life
says:
Unless man is willing to accept a
place in the list of predatory animals,
which have no other thought than the
wolfish instinct to slay every living
species save their own, he is bound
by the unwritten laws OF civilization
to protect from annihilation the
beasts and birds that still beautify
the earth and make it interesting"
The only way to save our birds and
mammals from annihilation is 10
in favor of their preservation One
of the ways Of doing this is through
general crusade against the forces
Of destruction. Ought not our peo-
pie to awaken to the seriousness Of
the situation and bring about com
plete revolution in behalf of the pro
lection of our native animals life?
These are questions that are absol-
utely in the hands of the people.
There are movements in various
parts Of our country to set apart re-
serves and refugees for Wild life.
There are IS Of these refugees in the
United States to day Many of these
reserves are also forest reserves, and
their combined area, is about 5000
900 acres. Minnesota in 1909 made
her forest reserve; also game re-
serve Ought not Wisconsin to do
likewise?
1t is the purpose of the game war
den's department to cooperate in
every way it, can, to secure more
adequate enforcement of our laws,
and to work in conjunction with as
sociations organized for that purpose.
However. i'll view of all the efforts
by the department, the people them
selves can do much. Why not make
Wisconsin one of the foremost states
in the Union along the line Of animal
conservation? Forward" is our mot
TO, why not make il real along these
lines?

the little intimate things Of the hour.
The teatable. therefore. Is always .
source of interest to women. and ques.
tions of the making of tea and its 90
cessories of paramount interest.
Women who pride themselves ON
their tea making assert that tea. to be
good. should be made in an earthen
pot, never In q metal one.
Tea is never good when long stand
ing. but In some cases It cannot be
helped. It should be poured on the
leaves into another heated pot and
covered with "cosy"

grade of tea may be used than wheS

An old fashioned idea h to drop

into the pot In which the tea IL made.
Some like this. while others believe
Nat 4 spells the flavor Of the bev.

Bits of cinnamon and two or three

To the Democrats of Louisiana.
At the recsnt meeting in Chicago of
the Democratic National Committee it
was decided to appeal to the Democrat
ic press of the country to open their
columns to popular subscriptions to the
fund necessary to defray the legitimate
expenses of the campaign of Gov. Wood
row Wilson and his running mate, Gov.
Thomas R. Marshall.
BY the action of the convention al
Baltimore and by the position since
taken by its nominee the party has vol
unfairly cut itself off from the financia!
support Of the money power and the
predatory interests. Gov. Wilson has
declared his intention to scrutinize the
subscriptions to the end Of rejecting
those which bear the faint of selfish
corporate interests.
The Democratic party stands reso-
lutely against the corrupt use of money
in the campaign. But vast sum win
be required to meet the legitimate
needs of the militant Democracy in the
pivotal States which will decide the
complexion of the next National Ad-
ministration.
To raise that sum by popular sub
scription in every State in the Union
will not be difficult task. Four years
ago, when prospects were finitely less
fiattering, the Democratic masses Of
Louisiana subscribed SIS, 900 to aid the
Democratic campaign 1t was by far
the largest subscription of any Southern
State. 1t ranked with the subscrip-
tons of the three or four States in the
whole country which stood at the heaf
of the roll of honor. 1t gave Louisiana
one of the prominent seats at the coun-
sci table of the National Democracy.
Louisiana ought to do as well in 1917
as she did in 1908.
AS the Democratic National Commit
teeman from Louisiana and as mem
Der of the Executive Committee which
Gov. Wilson and Chairman VIM. F. Nc
Combs have selected to manage the Ma.
tional Campaign, l have opened through
the columns of the States and the
Shreveport Times, subscription lists fol
this purpose.
l earnestly request every Democratic
newspaper in Louisiana to reproduc'
this address and similarly to open it
columns for subscriptions, each o
which, if transmitted to me, | shall b
glad also to acknowledge in the States
appeal to every Democrat in Louisi
ana, whatever his station, for his co
operation in this movement. Their
will be no limit on the amount of indi
vidual subscriptions. Whatever an.
| Democrat feels he is able to give, be !
large or small, will be gratefully &C
cepted, duly acknowledged in the col
umns of the States and the Shreveport
Times and promptly transmitted to tn
National Committee.
