STOCK FARMING GOOD
IN UPPER WISCONSIN
The Upper Counties Of Wisconsin Are
Particularly Adapted to the
Raising Of Stock.

A. d. Campbs ell. formerly state COM
missioner of immigration, calls at
tention to matters of practical i'm por-
tance relating to upper Wisconsin
which will interest great many peo-
pie, especially at the present time.
He says:
The partially developed portion of
Wisconsin has proved to be upsurpass-
ed for dairying and fruit raising. it is
beyond doubt that there is no better
place in which to produce the draft
horse, the beef steer, the bacon hog or
the mutton sheep than IN the fertile
regions OF cheap lands in Wisconsin.
Nor will the settler in upper Wisconsin
find himself alone in his desire for the
best of stock or without assistance in
the improvement of his herds, for in
all these partially settled counties
there are breeding associations and
blooded stock. -Creameries and cheese
factories are being added continuously
three of tue largest country creamev
les in the world being in the upper
counties.
The thought-and natural one-that
the pasturage season would be short
in upper Wisconsin had to be exploded,
and it has taken time to do it. But the
fact is that good pasturage-not the
Indifferent kinds as early there as
in states next south. Not only is this
true, Dut the frequent rains IN che heat
ed period give assurance against sun
burned pastures in midsummer. So
characteristic of upper Wisconsin is
this condition that those engaged in
settlingthe country ask their customers
to make their inspection when pastur.
age is poor at home and early in the
spring and late in the fall
Shipping in cattle and sheep from
the west. and from the great stock
yards. has become an annual business
in the upper Wisconsin counties. Aside
from local people following the busi-
ness there are a number in Chicago.
ST Pau and elsewhere. Dlring sea-
sons jial this year, when drought pre-
}ails in many portions q the country,
the practice Of shipping stock for pas
t1rage ia upper Wisconsin is vastly
augm ented. It is profitable business
and az agreeable one. especially for
those who want TO obtain from the land

Football Game.

a very exciting gene Of fo0Uball
was played between the Bessemer
highs and the Hurley highs Wednesday
afternoon. Both teams played very
good ball and although Bessemer was
a trifle heavier than Hurley the team
were quite evenly matched Hurley
won the toss-up for choice of goal and
a few moments later Bessemer kicked
off to Hurley and the ball was in play.
Hurley rushed their half-backs around
ends, making very good gains for a
time. but the field was wet and they
fumbled the ball. That gave Bessemer
a chance to show their strength but
they failed to show up very well. The
ball was pushed back and forth but
neither side succeeded in scoring a
point and the game ended in tie. Bes
semer had some very good trick plays
but none of them were clever enough
to deceive the defenders of the Hurley
high schools bonor. The Hurley boys
will again meet the Bess emer team on
the gridiron on Oct. 10, at Bessemsr.

Roses From italy.

The rose. SO long considered the
floral emblem of England, was not
known In that country until the early
part of the fifteenth century. Rose
trees were then brought from Italy
and planted in the royal gardens.
They were sent as presents from the
holy father and highly esteemed ny
royalty. 1t became the custom to
carve them over the doors OF the con-
fessional as holy flowers. hence the
term sub rosa (under the rose) used
10 mean with secrecy. Ave Maria.
