Old Rubbers Make Insulation.

The high cost of rubber is partly due
to the practice of people in burning up
their old rubbers because of the senti-
ment that prevailes against having
bers and sold back to him. The demand
for old rubber with which to make cleo
trio wire insulation is so great as to
absorb all the old rubbers of the entire
world. By burning your old rubbers
instead of selling them to the rag man,
you are doing what you can to boost
the price of rubber.

The Proper Remedy.

Where the King drag scheme has
been given a chance it has shown that
it is a success; and that fact should
make its use all the more general 1t
would take but little time to drag q
mile of road both ways and the result
of the work would be better road,
less wear and tear on vehicles, less
labor for the teams and much more
comfort and better nature for those
who travel the road. Try it and be
convinced.

MADISON - No more of the
seed potatoes can be supplied to Wis
consin farmers by the college of agri-
culture this spring, the supply being
exhausted, according to the report is
sued by Professor j. G. Milward.
A few weeks ago the college,
through the horticultural department,
offered to distribute seed potatoes in
lots of two bushels or less at practi-
cally cost prices. The application for
this seed was so immediate that the
department was sold out almost at
once.

WISCONSIN PARAGRAPHS

MARINETTE-The continued cry
ing of baby probably saved the
lives Of four people at Oconto. Mrs.
c. W. Brinckley was awakened by
her baby crying and lifted the child
from its crib. She then fell to the
floor unconscious and the noise
awakened her mother, Mrs w. Mitch
elstetter. She fell unconscious before
she could assist her daughter. The
continued crying of the baby finally
awakened Miss Aurella Vollmer, a
girl who was sleeping in an adjoining
room and after finding two women un-
conscious she called physician. Es-
Gaping gas from a coal stove was the
cause. All have recovered.

hands and knees and arrived there
covered with mud, but triumphantly
carrying the pail of beer.

Mayor.
Following is the communication re-
ferred to:
To the Honorable the Common Council:
0entlemeu--We are In receipt OF
certified copies Of resolutions passed
by your Honorable Body at It's ses.
sion on the 26th 'ult, respecting the
construction of North and south Line
on Junction avenue and other streets
therein named. and an extension OF the
kercheval avenue line.
We assume that these resolutions
were passed to put into effect the oner
of the Company as stated In the thiro
August 9Th. and accepted by the Com
mon Council, which 10 a. follows:
Third. Detroit United Railway will
construct the proposed cross-town line
on or near Junction avepue In con-
meet the Mack avenue and Myrtle
street line as heretofore proposed. and
will extend the Kercheval avenue line
easterly to st. Jean avenue. thence
southerly to Jefferson avenue: and also
make the necessary extensions to the
new Michigan Central Terminal station
all to be done on streets and loca-
tons 70 be approved Sy the Common :o,a1 ,n
| 1919 and completed AZ soon AZ prac-
! ticable and all such lines and extern
sions shall be constructed and operated
un0er the same terms, In SuOStouCe, a.
the Hamilton Boulevard Extension. So
called. was constructed and 10 being
operated"
II seems to us that the resolutions
are rather too vague to express clear
lily the intent Of the Company and the
'City with respect TO these extensions.
and We suggest that the matter be
again referred to Committee Of your
Honorable Body for the purpose Of q
conference with the Officials OF the
Company. to the end that q clear un-
derstanding may be reached and the
work be put under way with a. little
delay as possible.
may add. that we already have
started to accumulate the materials
necessary for the work and desire to
make some substantial progress be-
fore the winter weather will interfere.
Yours very respectfully.
