BUILDING TRADES ON STRIKE
Demands for Higher Wages Causes
WaIkouts at Racine and
Sond du Lac.

Racine.-Journeymen plumbers, car
penters and fathers refused to go to
work because their demands for in
creases in wages had been refused As
a result the building industry is tied
up. As result of the strike the build
ing contractors have decided to organ
lie for the purpose of protection. The
Journeymen plumbers demand $3.50
for an elght-hour day, an increase of
80 cents. The carpenters demand 80
cents IN hour, an increase of cents
and the fathers want 5 cents a yard,
an increase of one-half cent.
Fond du Lac.-Eighty members of
the Carpenters local laid down their
tools on May l. The electrical work
ers who have wage grievance joined
in the strike, adding twenty to the
number idle. The carpenters are stand
ing for an increase from 38 to As cents
an hour, while the electrical workers
ask an advance from 20 to 80 cents.
The contractors offered 40 cents an
hour in consideration of dropping a
clause in last years contract which
called for exercising preference in
favor of union men.

Vacuum Clothes Washer.

A vacuum clothes washer Is the
newest invention to save labor in the
laundry. 1t operates on the vacuum
suction principle. supposedly releasing
the washwoman from the necessity of
rubbing the garments. All the clothes
to be washed are merely put in the
clothes boiler with shaved soap or
washing powder and water, and the
vacuum washer. When the water
reaches the boiling point it is drawn
automatically from the bottom of the
boiler and forced up in a stream
through the clothes.
The vacuum washer is made of
zinc which is polished, so that it viii
neither rust nor corrode. 1t is in fun
mel shape. and is made in one size
only. This, however. will fit any boil
er. 1t measures twelve and a half
inches high and ten inches wide at
the mouth, and weighs two and half
pounds. The price is $3.50 without the
wash boiler, which must be purchased
separately. ANY articles may be
washed with this device, from fine lin.
gerie to the heaviest linens.

COCOA AND CHOCOLATE
TWO READILY DlGEsTED, HIGHLY
NCuRISHING BEVERAGES.

for Children - Few With
Whom They Disagree.

or the several beverages used at
meals cocoa and chocolate are the two
that have food value Cocoa is the
fruit of the cocoa tree, which grows in
abundance in the tropical countries.
Chocolate is made from cocoa beans
by the addition of sugar and some
starchv materials.
Cocoa grows in the form of a bean
and several rows of these beans s-e
held together in single pod When re-
moved from the pod the beans are al
lowed to undergo a process of fermen-
tation. called sweating" and are then
exposed TO the sun to dry in order to
develop their fine flavor Roughly
speaking, cocoa contains % per cent
OF protein matter-that is, vegetable
meat; 20 per cent. of fat and nearly SO
per cent. of starch.
Together with the sugar and milk
used in the preparation of the bever
age 1t becomes a highly nutritious as
Wen as palatable drink. far superior to
either tea or coffee. Tea and coffee
are wholly devoid of all nutritive sub
stances. They are used entirely for
the flavor. and, moreover, they are
stlmulanes, and as such are frequently
harmful, while cocoa and chocolate
are practically free from any stimulat;
ing effects. From what has been said
it is easy to see that though relatively
cocoa and chocolate are dearer than
tea or coffee, yet as foods they are
cheaper.
A very cheap form of cocoa is that
made from cocoa shells. 1t is prepared
in the usual way, and is nutritious as
well as cheap and wholesome. Cocoa
is adapted for the use of most people
There are some with whom the bever
age does not agree well, and causes in,
digestion. But this is the exception
rather tnan the rule Children take
cocoa with benefit, and for them It
should always take the place of tea or

IOWA COUNTY VILLAGE BURNS
Ridgeway Almost Wiped Out by Fire
Forty Buildings Burn With
100000 Loss.

DodgeVille.-Fire from an unknown
cause, breaking out in the rear of a
saloon, destroyed the larger part of
the village of Ridgeway, ten miles
northeast of Dodgeville, causing loss
estimated at 100000.
The number of buildings DESTROYED
is estimated at forty, half of which
are business houses.
Famed by high wind, the flames
spread so rapidly among the frame
buildings that it was impossible to
check them. The village has no wa
ter system nor fire protection, and
calls for aid were sent to Dodgeville
and BannervilIe.
