Perry Flag On Niagara.
Famous Emblem Has Been Restored to
Original Condition.

Commodore Perry's famous battle
flag, to be shown on his old flagship
Niagara, now restored to it's condition
at the time of the battle, is solid blue
bunting flag, rectangular in form, with
ten feet of fly and eight feet five inches
hoist In rather crude white letters
cut from muslin and stitched to the
bunting are the dying words of Capt.
Lawrence, who was wounded in the
battle between the Chesapeake and
the Shannon. These words, "Don't
give up the ship" have become tocsin
amongst naval men. At the time of
the battle of Lake Erie, Perry had the
flag prepared and hoisted first at the
masthead of his flagship, Lawrence, as
a signal for engaging the enemy.
1t was while standing on the deck of
the Niagara under this battle flag and
at the supreme moment of victory that
Perry sent his immortal dispatch to
Gen. Harrison: eve have met the
enemy and they are ours"
A wide public interest in this natio-
nal trophy will be augmented by its
exhibition on board the Niagara as she
makes her trip ABOUT the great lakes
as the principal feature of the Perry
victory centennial. The famous relic
will be seen in Green Bay during Home
Coming week. The Green Bay Herald.

POTATO MEN
WANT SELECT MARKET.

Definite steps will be taken to i'm
prove the standard of Wisconsin grown
tubers and to secure more Of the select
seed and general market trade Of the
country when the potato growers of
the state meet in Rhinelander in No
vember in response to call sent out
by Prof. James G. Milward of the Col
lege of Agriculture of the University
of Wisconsin and secretary OF the Wis
consin Potato Growers Association.
A state wide campaign has been
started to encourage the raising Of but
one or at least a very few standard
varieties in each community and tnen
to prevent in every way possible the
mixing of varieties, practice which
has done more than any other one
thing to injure the reputation of Wis
consin-grown potatoes upon the lead
ing markets and with the largest buy
ers of seed.
With many of the potato men of the
state the Burbanks of the long white
type and the Rural New Yorker of the
round white type are among the most
popular varieties, as they are we'll
adapted to the wide range of conditions
to be found in the potato districts of
Wisconsin. Other standard varieties
do equally we'll in various sections and
can be as successfully grown and mar
keted if the majority of the growers
will cooperate to grow but very few
of these varieties.
The potato fields of the state, on the
whole, are in thrifty condition and
give promise of abundant yields. In
some of the red clay districts growers
are having considerable difficulty with
'black Leg" bacterial disease, which,
if not controlled, does much damage.
They are finding the most effective
remedy is to disinfect the seed with
formalin. Pulling all diseased plants
also helps to prevent the spread of the
infection.

CHEAP FARMS FOR SETTLERS.
(Evening Wisconsin


Discussing recent movement to at
tract investments of foreign capital by
consolidating partially successful IND
bankrupt irrigation systems in the vi
cinity of Denver, and referring also tC
the endeavor to induce colonist farmers
from Norway, Sweden and Germany
to settle on lands in the Denver irri-
cation district, correspondent of the
New York Financial World remarks;
The unfortunate feature of this en-
terprise is that many of these projects
have failed because of lack of water
and the consolidation of number OF
such failures does not increase the
water supply, or insure that there will
be enough for all of the lands included
within the projects This lack Of wa
ter will not be appreciated until after
the colonists have been settled anC
have been cultivating for few years,
then as the area of cultivated lanC
gradually extends, it will be discovered
that there is not water enough to sup
ply the rights which have been sold.
During the early years, there is de-
mand for only small part of this wa
ter; and when the shortage occurs it is
usually to late to secure any redress
from the men who have promoted the
enterprise and who in the meantime
have for their own good wisely disap-
peared. In this connection it is well
known that there is hardly sufficient
water to develop any great extent of
land in the vicinity named. and it al
most seems crime to import unsus-
pecting foreigners to this country on
the pretext that there is sufficient wa
ter and that great profits may be rea-
lized.
There are other regions to which i'm
migrants have been lured with the
most deplorabls results. Perhaps there
may be more vigilance on their behalf
in official circles than there has been in
the past. Certainly if timely warning
could be given helpless victims OF the
greed of INSCRIPTIONS land exploiters
much misery would be averted. While
some of the regions to which settlers
are vociferously hidden are unable to
justify 1.-THE of the claims which are
made for them, there are tens of thou
sands of acres of good farming lands in
upper Wisconsin and the northern pen
insula of Michigan which are offered at
prices within the reach of slender
purses. Hundreds of settlers upon
these lands during the past ten years
hAue built up comfortable homes. Not
only is their toll rewarded by bountiful
crops, but what they produce is salable
in nearby markets at remunerative
prices.

HEAVY H|T7ERS IN THE
NATIONAL LEAGUE FIND
CRACK PITCHERS EASY

The star pitchers in the National
league have failed to hold the heavy
hitters in their circuit: In. fact. over
half OF the batsmen have hit up to or
better than their average against the
six leading veteran twirlers~ of the
league.
The peerless Mathewsonl has had his
curves pummeled to the extent OF SO
hits in the 103 times up by the best
batters Of the old league. Vanguard
has Jared little better, for the long
southpaw has been badly treated by
Cravath, Zimmerman, Magee and the
rest. r.,
A strange coincidence is that the
star veteran pitchers Of both teams
leading In the two big leagues should
make about the same showing against
the best ibatsmen. 1t must be they
are using the same system-depending
or the men behind them.
Titus of. Boston has fattened. his
National pitchers. seaton Of the
Phillies Is the only one who has been
immune. ..
Magee Of Philadelphfa is neck and
