Upper State Attracts Settlers.

Investigation has shown that there
are more settlers coming to upper Wis
consin at this time than to any other
state.
Until three years ago the state was
asleep to the fact that it possessed the
best idle lands available for settle
ment. For short time prior TO that
date the state had maintained a board
of immigration, but allowed it only
$1,000 per year and that was not
enough with which to contend against
the rampant western promoters and
the more rampant federal govern
ment.
At that time the Wisconsin Advance
ment association was organized. The
association proceeded in a manner
"aggressively aggressive" to make an
active campaign with unquestionable
facts and figures. This line of work
was wonderfully helped by the appear
ance of the 1910 United States census.
Those were figures that no one was
In position to dispute. The association
put a man at work making Ineligible
tables from the mass of data contained
in the census tables that would show
the productiveness of the upper Wis
consin counties in comparison with
other regions that were appealing to
settlers

CONSIDER FESTIVAL PLANS
Executive Committee on Norwegian
Celebration Will Raise $4,000
in Wisconsin.

Madison.-At a meeting of the exec
utive committee recently appointed
at a conference of Norwegians called
by Gov. McGovern to consider the pro-
ject of having Wisconsin properly rep
resented at the centennial exposition
and celebration at Christiania, Nor
way, next year, it was decided to ar
range for suitable participation OF
Wisconsin in the affair and to raise
fund of $4,000 by subscription to de-
fray the expenses. A secretary to have
active charge of the work will be Sc
lected soon. The members of the COM
mittee reported that the movement
had been enthusiastically received by
the Norwegian citizens of the state

STATE SUFFRAGE
MEET At MADISON

PAIGN FOR BALLOT AT AN
NUAL CONVENTION.
PARTY SEEKS $4,000 VOTES
Amendment to National Constitution
Granting Equal Suffrage Is Pro-
posed-Suffraae Planks
Are Urged.

Madison.-The state suffrage con-
vention at the opening session listen
ed to the address of Mrs. H. NJ You
mans, Waukesha. president. and a va.
riety of papers on many phases OF
the suffrage problem.
The speakers mged the Importance
of a federal amendment and Increased
educational work The resolution for
the amendment to the constitution
was presented by the Rev Olympia
Brown OF Racine. She said that an
amendment was the easiest way and
the most secure method of securing
the ballot for women in all the states.
A resolution was adopted that every
party be asked TO put a suffrage plank
in its platform.
Mrs. Henry NJ. Youmans, president,
in her address, said:
AT the last election on woman suf-
frage in Wisconsin a year ago we
pOlled 135,000 votes. The opposition
polled 10000 more than we did, so
that, at that time we needed nearly
$4,000 more votes than we received to
win. When our next election on wom-
an suffrage rolls around, some of our
friends will have passed away; posi-
bly, some will have had the bad taste
to change their minds; the population
of the state will have increased. We
shall have to convert 10000 or TO-
600 more men in Wisconsin to the be-
lief in our cause before we women
of Wisconsin can win the ballot.

state Norweaians 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 subscriptions to defray tho
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 800 each and the same num-
Der to give $50 each. We will have
some one to take charge of the exhib-
it, and to be with 1t 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
days, and beside it modern farm
house, Pictures of prominent Norwe-
gians of the state probably will be ex
hibited."

wiIson,n Mexican Policy.

Unpleasant is the prospect which
lies before us il President Wilson in
his schoolmaster's conceit shall carry
us into foolish and ruinous war with
Mexico. Not In the lifetime of a gen
GRAFTON would we be able really to
compose the country; and even when
II should be done, II ever. the result
would involve an intending RESPONSE
bility and a permanent source of trou-
BILE. To maintain Mexico az con-
quered province would put upon us a
strain to which our system is not
adapted and which 1t could hardly
sustain. To incorporate Mexico with
in our own system with her myriads
of ignorance and alien incapacity
would be a policy of utmost hazard.
probably one tending to national de-
structlon. And this being SO. we ought
by every expedient consistent with
honor and dignity to avoid the kind or
mix-up in which the presidents course.
II 1t shall be persisted in, is more
than likely to involve US.

SHOULD PROVIDE
SUITABLE C0OPS
Chickens Generally Seek the
Same Roasting Place and
Carry Insects With Them.

Poultry, roosting in trees, is not
exempt from insect enemies. This
has been proved by the experience OF
many who make a business of raising
poultry An examination of the
limbs of trees where the young fiocks
roost at night. before the birds have
been yarded and housed for the win
ter. will show countless numbers OF
mites resting under the loose bark.
Chickens generally seek the same
roosting place night after night, and
carry insects with them. The tree
becomes infested and the vermin In
crease In numbers with wonderful
rapidl;y. finally sapping the vitality
OF the birds. Then farmers wonder
why food does not fatten. When
birds are old enough to "climb trees"
they should be placed in coops that
can be easily disinfected and kept in
healthy condition. II the best finan-
cial results are expected.

SULPHUR HARMFUL
TO YOUNG CHICKS
Lard Grease Alone Is Quite Ef-
feCtive in Destroying Head
Lice on Youngsters.
CBy A. J. LEGGa

1t has twice come under my OBJ
servation that sulphur and grease
used upon young chicks TO kill head
lice killed the chicks also.
caly few days ago a woman mix.
ed sulphur with hogs lard and creased
under the wings of hens that were en-
trusted with the broodng of 40 young
chicks.
The grease and sulphur killed all
but one of the young chicks.
Lard without sulphur is quite as ef-
ective in destroying the head lice,
and It should be applied carefully and
Ia small quantities.
The lice cannot live In grease, and
die almost as soon as the grease
touches them Two or three appli-
cations are sufficient to rid a brood
effectually of head lice.
The applications should be week
or ten days apart.

Honor system at waupun.

That the honor system" adopted
by Warden Edward Alien of the Joliet
(Illinois) state penitentiary has been
in use in Wisconsin for more than a
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 only 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 conyicts," said Warden Wood.
ward. I'VE may try that out next
year, if any county asks for convict
labor expect to visit convict road
camps in other states within the next
few weeks and get a 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 a 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
we 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 II 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 10 WIseon,In.

Dairy farming has developed rapid
IS in Wisconsin during the past few
decades. In 1907. according TO the
1908 report Of the Wisconsin state
board OF agriculture. there were in
Wisconsin 1.I43.606 cows, valued at
s24,s34.465. as compared with 799. 104
head of other cattle valued at $9.794.-
SS3. Apparently there has been a
marked increase each year in the
number OF cows kept in Wiscc. sin.
II 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 30 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 q
distinct type sand to supply a large
number of such animals to meet the
demand created by cooperative ad-
vertising. Through the meetings of
the organization its 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-
tions do not exist
Advantages in buying and selling
are sc cured through cooperative ad-
vertisilg; 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 ami
mails the members may improve their
herds with good blood without i'm
porting animals from a distance.
