Plea for Kitchen.

The kitchen should be the refinery.

do SO may economic in this way.
Housewives must not look upon their
art as mere drudgery; they must
bring education, intelligence, and con.

Hogs for BREEDING,

For breeding purposes avoid hogs
with long legs and snouts, shallow
bodies, narrow heads, contracted heart
girths and long pastern combined
with small bone. Also avoid hogs
that are too plump and chubby in ap-
pearance. The breeding animal should
have plenty of size and a massive ap-
pearance. A very fat hog is bad
risk, for there is danger of his breed
ing faculties being impaired.

Education has placed Wisconsin to
the fore. This fact will be duly recog-
nIzed al the Wisconsin state fair,

made special effort to advance the ed

ules are so arranged that every pupil
in the state has a chance TO demon
strate his ability, special classes being
arranged for all kinds of public educa-
tIonal institutions from county train
ing schools down to the humblest
rural school, and for compe' itions be-
tween counties, as we'll as cities of the
third and fourth classes.
Practical knowledge is the basis up
on which merit will be adjudged
"Book learning" alone will not
serve any entrant, as all the competi-
ions of moment require that the COM
petition show ability to apply know
ledge to practical things.
The elimination process applies in
connection with the spelling contest,
so that the winner at the state fair
will be the champion for Wisco nsin.
Winners of city and town contests
will compete in the county contests,
and it will be the county winners that
will compete at the state fair.

credited largely for the excellent new

Former Governor Sanders OF Lc uisi-
ana was the orator at the Chautauqua
on Friday evening. He spoke under
the most distressing circumstances,
being twice stopped by the noise made
by the downpour of rain. The water
came down in deluge and there was
nothing else to do but wait for the
storm to pass. Governor Sanders took
the situation good naturally and
philosophicalIy and the audience was
not restless. The time during
the showers was filled by the COL
lege quartet which sang most
excellently and delighted the audience
over and over with their original
selections.
Governor Sanders is an orator and
gave the southern viewpoint of
Abraham Lincoln. It was not the
viewpoint of fifty years ago but as the
south looks upon the great emanci-
pator now. Both Abraham Lincoln
and Jefferson Davis were Dorm In
Kentucky, each to become leader of
two sections of the country. He traced
their career in brief and added that
the three great figures which stand
out in American history to the south
erner are Washington, jefferson and
Lincoln.
The speaker said when he came to
Wisconsin he found new kinship-
the water which falls on our valley
passes by his door in the southland.
His Grafton was received with the
highest appreciation by all and the
only regret was the coming of the rain
at that time.
