TO COLLECT UTILITY LAWS
Rail Board Writes for Copies of All
American and Foreign Laws Re-
lating to Subject.

Madison. For the purpose of maxi
ing comparative study and survey of
all the public utility laws and regula-
lions of the world, Secretary l.. A. Get
tie of the railroad commission has
written letters to the secretaries of
state of all the states of the union and
to the proper authorities of all for
eign countries.
In the handling of claims which
come before the commission many OBJ
stacles are encountered that make
this particular work very unsatisfac-
tory, and it is sometimes found diff.
cult to enforce the judgment of the
commission Delays often result be-
cause there is no penalty provisions
in the laws. These and other obstacles
have been met and overcome in some
of the states and in foreign countries

Sixteen Creameries Paid 2,750 Men
$946,916 for 9,317,198 Pounds
of Milk From 1865 Cows.

Menomonie. The dairy cows Of
Dunn county contributing to the six
teen creameries produced 9,317,198
pounds of milk and cream during the

DOME IS NEAR COMPLETION
Final Work Begun Upon Lofty Apex
OF Wisconsin's State House
at Madison.

Madison. -Workmen are busy now
putting up the great cranes at the
very top Of the structural work of the
dome on the statehouse in prepare
ton for the task Of placing the gran.
tie on the curved portion Of the dome,
the finishing touch to the covering of
that huge structure. The granite has
all been placed up to the beginning of
the curve and as soon as the derricks
are safely anchored on the high perch
200 feet above the ground, the final
work will be begun.
The granite is nearly all on hand
now and it is not expected that there
will be any delay for want of material.
Magnus Swenson, a member of the
capital commission, said the other day
that while there had been some delay
on account of labor troubles at the
quarries, this had now been overcome.
The work of cutting the stone for
this curved work which is done in the
quarries is most particular, inasmuch
as each piece must have the proper
curvature both outside and In, and be
made to fit perfectly in the place for
which it is intended.

FEED CHICKENS IN SUMMER
There Are Few Farm Flocks That Will
Not improve in Egg-Layin9 1t
Given Some Grain.

The very common opinion that
farm f1ocks need no grain feed in
summer is seldom warranted. The
farm range is valuable, and there is
no place where eggs can be produced
as economically, but there are few
flocks that will not improve in egg
yield if given at least one feed daily.
1t ought not ito be difficult to de-
termine whether more feed is needed.
Something depends on the size of the
flock and the range, but the egg yield
will tell. THERE is only one probable
explanation for farm hens failure
to lay eggs in summer, and that is
lack of feed. Occasionally it is due to
a lack of the right kind of feed, but
generally if the hens have one feed
daily of any grain they will give good
results
Wheat, barley and oats are the
practical summer grabs, but If a little
care is used and some meat, corn Is
very good. Whatever grain is used it
is genuine economy to give the hens
access to dry bran. An open shallow
box will do if you haven't time to make
a regular feed hopper. No poultry
man or farmer Is feeding to the best
advantage who does not feed Iran.

NEW MILK RECORD is MADE
Pulp, Gives 1873 Pounds
of Milk.

MarDette.-The efficacy of sugar
beet pulp and beet sugar molasses
mixed with grains as feed for cows
was given quite boost when a years
record established by Eminent Bess, a
Jersey COW on the famous Roycroft
farm, was announced.
Bess has now won the worlds "long
distance" milking record for both Jer-
Sey and Guernsey cows. Her record
Tor year. made under the supervision
OF the Michigan agricultural college,
shows production of 1873 pounds of
milk testing 1,132 pounds. nine ounces
of butter.
The achievement of Eminent Bess
exceeds the record of Jacoba Irene,
heretofore the worlds champion of
the Jersey breed, by 1926 pounds of
milk and at the same time exceeds the
record of Spottswood Daisy Pearl, the
worlds champion Guernsey COW, by
17s pounds.

FOR HOLDING THE HATPINs
Original idea That May Appeal to the
Wishes of Some Of Our
Readers.

A novel. original and decorative hat
pin holder is the subject Of the &C.
companying sketch, and 1t is made
with the aid of one of those pretty
Japanese paper fans that may be pur-
chased in many shops at the cost of a
penny or three-halfpence and card
board cylinder of the nature so often
used for sending unmounted photo
graphs and drawings through the post.
The cardboard is covered with a
pretty remnant of silk, carefully Sc
lected to harmonic with the colors
that appear on the fan. The silk is
gathered into tiny frtll at the top
of the cylinder, and at the base it is
tightly tied together with piece of
narrow ribbon.
Two Sits are cut in the fan, and
through these two Sits piece OF
broad ribbon is threaded in the man
ner shown in diagram A on the left OF

DICTATES OF FASHION.

Jet buttons are used on smart white
frocks.
AS rule the modish dressy wraps
do not come below the knees.
The tendency is toward wider and
longer sleeves and loose coat styles.
Fancy buckle shapes are plentiful,
the newest being in bow effect with
small tassel ends.
Cut steel buckles are especially
favored this year and appear to adj
vantage on patent leather, suede and
satin
Speaking of tassels, one would say
that they are steadily winning and
have taken the place of the pendant
ornaments.
All tones of yellow, shading from
palest canary to deepest ocher, will
be used extensively to trim suits,
gowns and millinery.
SO many summer frocks have a very
high waistline, recalling the Empire
and very becoming for the fichu treat
ment, which is caught with cameo
brooch or bunch of flowers, emphasiz-
ing the graceful mode.

MARATHON CAPTURES CASH
Given 500 Points on Distance From
Grounds and Leads in Prize Money
Competition = ST. croix County
Comes Third in Cash Awards.

Milwaukee.-Th Rock County Order
of the Wisconsin Experimental associ-
alton was awarded the blue ribbon In
department G, in county exhibits, for
its exhibit of Rock county farm
produce at the State fair.
The Sank county exhibit was deco
rated with the red ribbon and the Mar.
athon county exhibit with the white
for third place. Some of the other
counties in the order OF awards are:
Ozaukee, fourth; Eau Claire, fifth; St.
Croix, Chippewa, Wood, Price, and
Dana, tenth
Only 200 points were given Rock
county for distance from the fair
grounds, while Marathon county,
which secured third award, was given
500 points on distance. and so secured
the greatest number of total points in
the competition for the prize money.
st. Croix county comes third in the
cash awards.
The exact amount of money to be
given each county for the points
scored in the contest have not yet
been figured out, though each county
will figure in the distribution. The fair
board had set aside $4,000 to be di-
vided among the competing counties
and added $100 for each county show
ing in excess of twenty, so there is
$1,000 to be divided, though the maxi
mum amount, under the rules of the
competition, which may be awarded
the winner is limited to $3.50.

DEFECTS OF THE LIPS
BEAUTY MARS THAT MUST BE
CURED WITHOUT DELAY.
Bad Habits Have Permanent Results
and Effeetuai and Absolute REM
edy Must Be Sought For and
Applied at Once.

1t Is the curve of the lips and the
caliber of them rather than the mouth
itself that indicates character and hab-
it's, and they are such important fea-
lures in beauty making and SO sus-
ceptible to being moulded that the-
should be carefully studied, with a
view to eliminating or minimizing any
defects.
Perhaps an otherwise beautiful
mouth takes on scornful twist at
one corner. or it is thicker at one side
than at the other, and then only by dill
igently practising before mirror
can the defect be remedied. Press the
offending side down into place. and
form the habit OF keeping 1t there. At
first it will be difncult, but persist. It
might even be advisable to bite the lip
at that side, or at least to train into
the bad habit Of COMPRISING the lips,
In order to accomplish what Is desired,
but then must speedily begin the cor
rection OF that habit. Lips that are
too thick betoken cOarseness and are
not generally attractive. In some
cases they may be made to appear
thinner by elongating the line from
the nose down. This is done by draw
ing the outsides together-that is. by
drawing the lower one up and the up
per down, and sort of folding them In
literally drawing the outside edges
of them together, as already suggest
ed.
With the aid OF the mirror this can
be done without COMPRISING the lips,
which is a distressing habit, showing
not necessarily nervousness but lack
of poise. Moistening the lips frequent
ly with the tongue is another deplor-
able habit and one that is not peculiar
to age. although one of the signs. II
the stomach is kept in condition and
the lips smooth and soft the habit is
easily broken. AT any rate it must be,
for rough, cracked lips are sufficient
to mar the beauty Of any face. Purs-
Ing the lips, although recommended
for making the mouth small. will tend
to induce myriads of tiny wrinkles
that will grow deeper and deeper as
the habit fixes itself, so better meth
cd of decreasing the size OF the mouth
line is to take the greatest care not to
stretch the natural line. Find out
from the mirror just how near to be-
ing pursed the lips can come without
wrinkling and practice keeping them
in that position, learning to do it with
out strain or effort and without thrust
ing the lips out.
If this habit is formed there will be
also the satisfaction of knowing that
at least one or two of the lines at the
corners of the mouth are gradually
growing fainter. The progress might
be helped on by gentle rotary massage
with a skin food. Drawing the lips to
one side will, in less time than would
be imagined. result in an unbalanced
effect in the mouth that gives SIMS
ter expression to the face.

Eggs not gather once a day now

The breed you like the best is the
one you will give the most attention.
AS a source Of income the hen Is
not considered as seriously as she

There will never be too many good
poultrymen, but we can all strive to

Feeding chicks when too young and

Fresh, clean water Is necessary this
time of the year. II you have no

Do not neglect to chop some onions

rA,R ATTENDANCE.


Miiwaukee.-When the ticket takers
of the 1913 state fair passed the last
oatron through the gates the attend
arce record of 1912 had been surpassed
by 1918 by 3,O41.
Had it not been for the rain on
milwaukee day." which kept thou
sands away, the 1913 fair would have
hung I'D a new record for attendance
It had been claimed for several days
that the fair, as an agricultural exhibit
ton, had been a greater success than
ever before, and this was conceded by
the majority of the patrons.
The total attendance in 1912 was
1OS,974. That of 1913 was 112,015. ac-
cording to the figures which had been
tabulated at the office of Secretary
Mackenzie.
The opening day this year fell short
by more than 500 of the mark set on
Tuesday, the opening day of last year;
on Wednesday, state fair day in 1912,
was exceeded by the Wisconsin day
attendance of this year by about 1000,
while Milwaukee day this year, owing
to the elements, was approximately
$4,000 less than the figures of last year.
Receipts for the week were $62,-
22197. About $4,000 more will be add
ed to this from collections yet to come.
Last year the receipts for the five days
of the fair were 71,147.02. In 1911
the total amount was $73,776.04; in
1910, receipts were $78,4S8.96, and in
1909, the total was $7S,997.93.
One notable feature about this fair
was the interest that northern Wiscon-
sin has shown. From that section Of
the state have come some notable ex-
hibits. The men from upper Wiscon-
sin are determined to secure appropri-
ations from their county boards for
the erection of a northern Wisconsin
building to house the exhibits of eight
counties during future state fairs.
