TEACHERS CHOOSE
PROF. C. {. PATzER
MILWAUKEE EDUCATOR ELECT
ED PRESIDENT OF STATE
ASSOCIATION.
HARD BATTLE FOR OFFICE
Intense Feeling Between Rival Can
didates Brings Out a Heavy Vote
-t,o67 Ballots Are Cast
for Patzer.

MilWaukee.-C. E. Patzer, instruct
Or in the Milwaukee normal school,
was elected president of the Wiscon-
sin Teachers association at its an
nual convention here. The normal
school teacher was given the largest
vote ever received by a candidate for
president of the association, defeating
H. F. Leverenz, superintendent of the
Sheboygan schools, by vote of 1,067
to 941.
Other officers elected were: First
vice president, L. P. Benezet, superin-
tendent, La Crosse; second vice pres
ident, Rosalia Brorer, Marathon Coun-
ty Training school, Wausau; third
vice president, L. W. Brooks, princi-
pal high school, Racine; treasurer, G.
F. LOomis, superintendent, Waukesha;
member executive committee, D. O.
kinsman, Whitewater Normal school.
Rivalry between the candidates for
the presidency was intense and some
bitter feeling was injected into the
contest. At one time prior to the cleo
ton contest Prof Patzer announced his
withdrawal from the race because of
tactics alleged to have been used by
Prof. Leverenz in circulating ballots.
He was finally persuaded by friends to
remain in the field c. j. Brewer, Chip
pewa Falls, and D. E. Nelson, Racine,
were eliminated by the early ballot
ing and the determination of Patzer
to remain in the race.
The interest in the election is gaug-
ed by the fact that the total number
Of votes CAST ,0O8-is the largest in
the history of the organization. 1t is
said that last year there were only
about 400 ballots cast
Out of the turmoil of the election
one thing was taken as a certainty C.
J. Brewer, Chippewa Falls, and D. E.
Nelson, Racine, will be formidable
candidates for the presidency in 1914.
Simplified spelling and the state
board of public affairs found little
favor at the hands of the teachers who
attended the closing session of the
convention. A resolution asking that
q committee be appointed to take up
the question of phonetic spelling with
the faculties of the different colleges
throughout the state was pigeonholed.
The other resolution, asking for COM
mittee to cooperate with the state
board of public affairs in it's investi-
cation OF the high schools in the state
received similar treatment.

CHARITIES MEETING CLOSES
Miss Katherine r. Williams of Mil

Conference at Annual Session.

La Crosse.-Miss Katherine r. Will

will appoint vice presidents and stand
ing committees.
Charles HI. Crownhart spoke at the
closing session on Social Insurance;
surance Against Unemployment" and
e. FL. Downey on "Old Age Pensions, :
each recommending these plans as a
step toward better social conditions.
Senator Huber explained at length
the new laws permitting courts to as
sign prisoners under commitment to
the work in which he is most skilled,
and to turn over his earnings to those
dependent upon him. Under the old
system, the man was not alone pun
ished," said Senator Huber, but those
dependent upon him were made to
suffer while he sat about the Jail and
played cards."

"HONOR COLONY" is PLANNED
Sheriff WhippIe at GAINESVILLE Advo
Gates Rockpile for Use in Win
ter Months.

JanesviIle-When the Rock county
board of supervisors meets for it's No
vember meeting two important ques-
tons will be brought up. The most
important is that of establishing a
county rock pile for the prisoners who
are sentenced under the new state
law
During the winter there will be lit
tie demand for farm labor and the
sheriff believes he will have hard
work placing the prisoners consigned
to him at work. With the county rock
pile, located in place convenient for
hauling, crusherd stone for work on
the proposed county highways, So
luton of the problem is believed to
be found
1t is planned to organize an honor
colony" similar to that of Illinois for
its state convicts and place the men
there. Since the new law went into
effect Sheriff Whipple has been run
ming an industrial bureau and has
placed all but one or two of the men
sentenced to Jail at labor.
The second question is the hiring of
county superintendent of farm in
dustries. This is being earnestly adj
vocated by many farmers throughout
the country and the city members of
the board express themselves as will
Ing to vote for the measure if it is
presented by the agricultural mem
bers first.

FARM I
POULTRY
FREE RANGE FOR CHICKENS
Modern Wire Fencing, Which Has
Neat Appearance, Will Keep All
Fowls Out of the Gardens.

The old method of free range need
not necessarily be changed. The
fowls should not, however, be allowed
to run at will within the garden or
in and about the farm buildings.
Nothing is more aggravating or dis
gushing than to have the nice yeget-
ables or beautiful flowers scratched
up, and the doorsteps, the porch, the
barn floor and the farm machines
fouled with poultry droppings. Sep
arate the poultry also from the other
live stock of the farm.
If the fowls are to be Kept near the
farm buildings, provide ample range
inclosed by modern poultry wire fenc-
ing. The latter requires ordinarily
but few posts, is easily put up and
has a very neat appearance when in
position.
Another way Of separating the
fowls from the center of farm opera
lions is to place the henhouses at. a
considerable distance from the farm
stead in pasture where the fowls
will have absolute range. The latter
plan may entail some extra travel by
the poultryman and there is the risk
in some localities Of depredations by
foxes, hawks or other wild animals
or by thieves. The young. strong
farmer boy may find advantage in.
the second or so-called colony plan"
while the housewife will probably
prefer the fenced Enclosure near the
farmhouse
Thirdly, the farmer Is too careless.
in the way he disposes of his poultry
products. He is usually content to-
trade his eggs at the nearest grocery
store when by a little extra effort he
could gain select private trade
which would pay far better. His
pure-bred stock of one breed of fowls
in their well-kept house and capacious
grassy yards will be a great adver-.
tisement for his egg products, and
uniform clean appearance of the eggs
in their attractive package will prove
an additional help in making sales.
Then, too, in disposing of his fowls
the farmer often sells the birds alive,
when by carefully dressing them on
the farm and selling to his customers
on orders he could secure far better
prices.
