New Substitute ,r Gasoline.

Auto owners are interested in the an
nouncement that new substitute for
gasoline has been put on the market
by the Standard Oil Co. after a year of
experiments, to be called motor fluid,
and will sell for three cents less per
gallon than gasoline.
The new fuel is an additional by
product of petroleum. 1t was discov-
cred by W. NJ Burton and patents for
the process of manufacture were grant
ed the first of the year. The spirit has
"a greater range of boiling points than
gasoline. This, it is said, will allow a
motor to be started as easily, or more
easily, with the new fuel than with
gasoline.
By the discovery of the spirit the
output of fuel for gasoline engines
from given, amount of crude petro-
leum is declared to be practically
doubled. This, it is believed, will tend
to prevent any rise in the price of gas
oline.
Motor spirit resembles gasoline close
ly except it is yellow in color and has a
pungent odor. The company intends it
for use in motor trucks and stationary
engines, but it's cheapness is expected
to encourage it's use in pleasure cars,
notwithstanding there are several dis
couraging TEXTURES from the standpoint
of pleasure car owners.
Chief of these is the exhaust of car
which employs the spirit as fuel is a
white smoke similar in appearance to
that caused by an excess of Oil.s

A Growing Business.

One of the growing industries of Ed
gerton is the Ell Insito Cigar Co. which
is just rounding out its first year of
business. To establish a cigar factory,
introduce new brands to the trade and
secure satisfactory distributing con-
nections means a whole lot of difficult
ties to overcome 1t requires time and
costs money to popularize new brands
of cigars, but the Ell Insito factory be-
lieves it has overcome these obstacles
and the business on substantial and
growing basis. New trade has been
opening up so rapidly of late that a
Universal stripping and booking ma
chine has been added to the factory
equipment, which strips and books
wrapper and binder leaf in almost per-
feet order and saves vast amount of
hand labor, doing better work even
than can be done by the old method,
and leaving the stems entirely clean.
An excellent trade has been secured
in Milwaukee where nearly all the no.
tells, restaurants and clubs handle the
Judge Karel brand, for which orders
are now coming TO the factory Tor from
eight to ten thousand weekly. Several
new distributors have recently been OBJ
tanned in the larger towns of the west,
for which the first orders were for
100, 600 of 10 cent goods. Northern
Illinois is now sending in a number of
new orders through an experienced
salesman covering that territory, which
with repeat orders coming all the time
where the Ell Insito goods are intro
duced, gives promise that the factory
will very soon be doubling its present
capacity.
The secret of the success of this in
dustry undoubtedly lies in the merits
of the cigars turned out of this fac
tory and none better are made, for the
policy of the concern is to keep the
quality up.

Basketball Tourney at Milton.

The athletic management of Milton
college is making elaborate plans for
an interscholastic meet of high schools
in southern Wisconsin to be held March
1920, in which the following schools
will be represented by teams: Edger-
ton, Stoughton, Fort Atkinson, Lake
Mills, West Allis, Monroe, Palmyra,
Walworth, Milton and Milton Junction.
A silver loving cup will be awarded
to the team winning the tournament,
and gold medals to the Individual mem
bers; also silver medals to she players
of team securing second place, and
bronze medals to those taking third.
A banquet is being planned for the con-
tenders and arrangements are progress
ing for an enthusiastic meet. Donnelly
of Madison will referee the games.
This will be the first time tournament
has been conducted by the college in
their new gymnasium and all indica-
tons point to a fast meet.

Used the Haymow for a Bank.

The haymow may be used as safety
deposit vault alright if a persons mem
DRY doesn't fail him, but the expert
ence of George Wesendonk Jr. goes to
show that it is hardly the proper place
of deposit. Last summer George was
employed by Chas. Bowen for time
on a tobacco crop raised on the Brooks
Lockwood place, always carrying an
amount of money with him which he
frequently left in his clothing in the
John Bowen barn. After being eau
toned that it was a careless thing to
do, he conceived the notion of hiding
the pocketbook in the haymow and
then he forgot all about it. A few
days ago Clarence Bowen came across
the pocketbook while feeding out the
NOW and returned it to the owner, who
was surprised to remember where the
the article had been put in hiding.

More Interurban Talk.

Word comes from Madison to the eff
feet that corps of engineers will be
employed to make survey for an in
terurban line between this city and
Madison. 1t is stated that the en-
gineers will start out as soon as the
weather will permit work. The pro-
ject is being backed by capital from
the Bank of France in Paris. 1t is also
this institution that is backing the
building of the interurban line from
Beloit to Delavan Lake.
A representative of the company was
in the city recently and it was under
stood that he would return in few
days to make further arrangements in
regard to the proposed line. All of the
merchants and financial men of this
city are firm in their belief that the
company means to build the road and
that they will start work as soon as
possible. Nothing definite as to the
American firms interested in the pro-
ject or in regard to the route the line
will take can be learned. Janesville

Inter-Scholastic Debaters Picked for
Triangular Debate.

The tryouts for the inter-scholastic
debate occurred at the meeting of the
Orphelian Literary society held We'd
nesday, February 10Th. There were
twelve entrances from which six de-
baters were chosen to represent the
Edgerton high school in the triangular
debate between Whitewater, Slough
ton and Edgertop. The following en-
frances were made: Roy Tallard, Roy
Marsden, Francis Curran, Lowell Whit
Harold Pratt, George Dallman, Glenn
Gardiner, Eugene Flarity, Durrel Davis
and Russell Conn. All the speeches
were well delivered and strong team
chosen. The following were picked
for the team: Glenn Gardiner, Harold
Pratt, George Dallman, Eugene FLAIR
ity, Andrew Thoreson and Lowell Whit
tet. The following acted as judges of
the contest: George Blanchard, Fred
Jensen and F. O. Holt.
This debate is probably the best
thing that will come off this year and
every patriotic and loyal supporter of
school contests should encourage this
debate. The debate will come off
March 28th. Stoughton will come to
Edgerton, while our negative team will
go to Whitewater. This is our second
year in this line of work and we should
do everything possible to make it a
grand success. The debaters are going
into this with vim and they need the
hearty support of every member of our
student body. The question at issue
this year is that of the Popular Elec-
ton of United States Senator's. Don't
forget March 18th. Come and hear the
boys trim Stoughton. March Crimson.

Test Your Seed Corn Now.

Farmers are being urged to test their
seed corn, as it is said that conditions
are nearly as bad as last year. Re
ports of many tests conducted through
out the central and southern part OF
the state indicate that there is large
amount of seed that fails to terminate.
Every farmer should heed this warn
ing and make an early test of his seed,
that he may satisfy himself as to its
quality. 1t is also said that there is
much poor barley and oats and that an
unsafe per cent of these grains will
fail to grow. If this is the case it is
up to the grower to make test of this
seed, as we'll as corn.
