Honor system at waupun.

That the honor system" adopted
by Warden Edward Allen of the Joliet
Qllinois) state penitentiary has been
in use in Wisconsin for more than
year was the statement in an inter-
view by Warden Woodward of the
Waupun prison. Warden Woodward,
before his appointment by Governor
McGovern to the head of the Wau-
pun prison occupied a Methodist
Episcopal pulpit, and probably enjoys
the distinction of being the eNly par
son warden in the United States.
Woodward said that the honor
system as applied to road camps had
not been tried out in Wisconsin, but
that it might be attempted during the
next summer.
1--WE have had no experience with
the honor system as applied to road
work Of convicts,' said Warden Wood
ward. eve may try that out next
year If any county asks for convict
labor. l expect to visit convict road
camps in other states within the next
few weeks and get better under
standing of the methods.
However, the honor system has
been used for long time along other
lines in the Wisconsin prison. Since
July. 1912, TRUSTEES have been sent to
the prison farm, distance of more
than. mile, without guards. From
twelve to fifteen men are in the farm
gang and they work from 500 to 700
or 500 p. m. in midsummer, in field
and garden Other men have worked
in the stone quarry and at digging
bitches without being guarded.
I'VE have had no violation of our
honor system in all the time it has
been in operation" said Warden Wood
ward. "Of course we have dealt with
the best class of prisoners, and il road
camps are established it probably will
be left to the discretion of the warden
to select the men to go to them, and
the same rule will apply"

Dairy Farming in Wisconsin.

Dairy farming has developed rapid
ly in Wisconsin during the past few
decades. In 1907, according to the
1903 report of the Wisconsin state
board of agriculture, there were in
Wisconsin 1,143,606 COWS, valued at
$24 1884, 465, as compared with 799, 104
head of other cattle valued at 1874
S83 Apparently there has been a
marked increase each year in the
number of cows kept in Wisconsin.
1t is true, however, that the improve
ment Of the. dairy cow has not kept
pace with her increased prominence.
Thousands of farmers who profess to
be dairymen are keeping and milking
COWS of inferior and improbable types
today, the production of which is ex-
ceeded by better bred cows by at
least so per cent. 1t is evident from
the inability and failure on the part
of men to improve their live stock
that some organization is needed that
will educate, encourage and help them
to better their conditions.
The purpose of community organi-
zation for breeders of dairy cattle is
to secure the cooperation of the va
rious breeders of a community in the
production and improvement of high
grade and pure-bred dairy cattle and
in establishing a reputation for the
community as a breeding center. The
advantages of this plan are: Concen-
trated attention along definite lines;
cooperation of the breeders in estab-
fishing high standards for the COM
munity and encouragement for the
owners of several herds to produce a
distinct type and to supply large
number of such animals to meet the
demand created by cooperative adj
vertising. Through the meetings of
the organization it's members are kept
informed of the progress in all that
pertains to their work. Through CO.
operation they may secure protection
against fraud and contagious diseases
and may secure many advantages not
available to the individual breeder.
Breeders associations can secure of
fetal tests for advanced registry at
less cost than where such ,associa-
lions do not exist.
Advantages in buying and selling
are secured through cooperative adj
vertising; through the purchase of
best breeding males for use in several
herds and through cooperation In pur-
chasing and importing a number of
choice animals. BY exchanging anil
mails the members may improve their
herds with good blood without i'm
porting animals from a distance.

State Norwegians to Exhibit.

Models and pictures which will il
lustrate how Norwegians have pros
pered in Wisconsin will be shown in
the Wisconsin exhibit at the exposi-
ton in Christiania next year in cele-
bration of the one hundredth anniver-
sary of the adoption of the declaration
of independence, according to Olaf l.
Rove, Norwegian consul.
Mr.. Rove is a member of the COM
mittee appointed at the meeting in
Madison of Norwegians from various
parts of the state to arrange the ex-
hibit He says that the committee
will not take any action until the re-
turn from hunting trip of Governor
McGovern, who is chairman.
The committee was instructed to
appoint a general committee, which
will solicit subsc riptions to defray the
expenses of sending the exhibit.
1--WE estimate that $4,000 will be
enough" said Mr. Rove. This we
plan to raise. by inducing 100 persons
to give 500 each and the same num-
Der to give $50 each. We will have
some one to take charge of the exhtb-
it, and to be with it as long as the
exposition lasts.
Among the things which probably
will be shown are dugout like those
used by the earliest Norwegian set
tiers of the state. There also may be
hut such as was used in the early
HsaU
house Pictures of prominent Norwe-
gians of the state probably will be ex'
hibited.'
