Thursday

w. FL. Cafiisch returned today from
Milwaukee where he attended the
twelfth annual buttermakers' conven.
ton. He reports fine attendance at
the meetings and states that many
things of interest were brought up.
On Sunday 8. A. Pelton visited the
old home place near Reedsburg. While
on the return he saw two lads with a
weasel. The boys had guns and were
evidently on a hunting expedition.
There is no law against using weasel
instead of ferret in hunting rabbits
and evidently the Reedsburg sportsmen
are taking new tack.
A man near Darlington, Wis.,, uses
white rat to scare out the cotton tails
and is unmolested by the game war
dens.
