SPRAY TO PREVENT
BLIGHT OF POTATO
Disease Is Most Destructive in
July and August-Amount
Required Per Acre.

Early potato blight is liable to at
tack the potato crop at any time from
June until the crop is ripe, but is
most seriously destructive in July
and August. 1t attacks the foliage.
Professor Kohler Of the Minnesota
experiment station doubts IL it will be
profitable to spray early paintings of
early varieties.
II, however, others desire to do SO
he advises spraying when plants are
small, and a continuance of the treat
ment every ten days until at least
ten per cent of the leaf surface is
dying, when 1t will be useless to
spray longer. In rainy weather spray
ing should be more frequent Twenty
FIVE to 35 gallons of Bordeaux per acre
will be required for the treatment
when the plants are small, and as they
advance in growth the amount will
need increasing to so, 60 or rs gal
Ions per acre.
Spraying for early blight on late
varieties of the Rural New Yorker
type of potatoes has proved profit
able at the Minnesota station. Spray
ing late varieties of the Rural New
Yorker type may be delayed until the
earliest planting of early varieties in
the locality shows signs of the pres
ence of the disease. when spraying
should be Immediately applied at the
rate of 60 to rs gallons Of Bordeaux
per acre followed with spraying of
an equal amount every ten days in
good weather. In rainy weather spray
more frequently.

To the Editor: When I had finished

my tongue to-wagging, but it did set
my thoughts sjogging for need

resident of Baraboo, L am in
terested in anything in connec-
ton with the old town, and have
many times wearied my weak intellect
concerning the derivation of it's more

THE GAINESVILLE CASE.

TIE JAINE0FIA~LE OAO Z.
The recall is to be tried at GAINESVILLE.
Strange to relate, the charge against
the city officials is not that they have
neglected their duty, but they want
the law enforced. The lid has been off
in GAINESVILLE for many years and fol-
lowing q number of serious criminal
acts it was decided by the ones in
authority to do their duty. The whole
question, therefore, resolves itself into
one of law and order on the one hand
and lawless and disorder on the other
hand. 1t is impossible to believe that
the recall OF men who are striving to
enforce the law will be successful. In
Wisconsin as elsewhere there is ten
dency to come within the law and not
to overthrow it. At Waussu the slol
machines are going out and in other
towns the lid is gradually going on.
The outlook is wholesome for sup
pressing vice conditions that are q
menace TO the citizens of every com,
munity.

THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL.

Congress has at last reached a
decision as to the Lincoln memorial.
Instead of a great paved road from
Washington to Gettysburg it is to be
an enormous rectangular stone struc-
ture on the north bank of the Poto-
mac, opposite the Lee mansion in
Arlington cemetery. There will be
four distinctive memorial features-a
statue of Lincoln, memorial of his
Gettysburg speech, memorial of his
second inaugural address and a
symbo of the Union of the United
States. The most important object is
the statue of Lincoln which is to be
placed in the center of the memorial.
On each side of the central space will
be the two memorials. Surrounding
the walls is planned colonnade
forming a symbol of the Union, each
column representing state, thirty
six in alone of each state existing at
the time of Lincoln's death. On the
walls appearing above the colonnade
and supported at intervals by eagles,
are forty eight memorial festoons, one
of each state existing at the present
time. The whole will cost 81, 600, OOO
and will be a. suitable monument to
the great emancipation.

try, under the caption "Baribou lie
Gar" L will not be positive at this
moment. whether the words were not
otherwise spelled. In fact, it may
have been spelled "Barabeau" for it
is long since and memory will not
positively affirm.
1t occurs TO me quite probable that
this word s'gar" is far from the French
"gars" feminine (garce) which is pro-
nounced gar and means literally, dare
! devil, jolly fellow, young blood, bel
a-faire- peur-i-e dangerously handsome.
Thus Baribou le-gar would, in all
probability relate TO popular young
coureur de bois, admirably answering
TO the description on page IL of your
booklet, in its allusion to "one Bari.
beau, described as young man but
seventeen years of age, when he set
forth from Detroit or Mackinac for the
Ouisconsin Wilderness" to barter for
furs for The widely known Hudson
Bay company and later on its power
full commercial rival, the American
Fur company. However, this may be,
there are so many suggestions, and
withal, among them SO many that are
at least possible, not to say probable,
that one is at loss to know which
trail is most logical to follow. 1t is
manifest that not all nor in fact any
one among them, may be fully right,
excepting as relates to the general
nameof Baribou. The patronymicis of
French Canadian derivation of course,
and we nationally conclude that refer
ence was always had to one and the
same person or family, notwith-
standing the various spellings. My
personal opinion is there was along
in the early twenties or thir-
ties, a family or traveller in the
Baie.vere-Portage, "Baraboo" coun-
try by name Baribou, from whom or
which was derived the name Baraboo
and first applied, naturally, to the
river of a similar name. We are,
however, left little more than frag-
mentary data upon which to upraise an
hypothesisfor lamentable to say we are
greatly upset and betangled by the
over numerous sources of incomplete
and frequently contradictory data.

WIVES BY THE CARLOAD.


Bachelors throughout the country,
who have been unable to get wife
from the local supply, should be
rejoiced to know that they can be
furnished with one from Boston by
applying to the proper person. Mrs.
Charlotte Smith of that city announces
that she is prepared to supply them,
slngly or in carload lots, says the
Joplin News-Herald.
It should not be understood that
Mrs. Smith is professional matri-
monial agent, for she is not. For
several years she has urged the
imposition of a tax on bachelors in
Massachusetts,, but has never been
able to secure the passage of such a
law. Now she has turned her atten-
ton to fostering marriage in another
way, the News-Herald continues.
Having read of Mrs. Smiths fight
against bachelors and believing it was
the result of superfluity of women in
Massachusetts, three farmers from
Minnesota asked her to supply them
with wives. Their requests were COM
piled with so quickly that it fairly
made their head swim, but the results
were satisfactory and they assured
Mrs. Smith that other bachelors in
their state would follow their example.
AS a result, this Boston woman has
taken the trouble to investigate the
supply of manageable women in
Boston and throughout the state.
She has found that 1t is much greater
than the local demand. She, there.
fore, announces that wives will be
sent upon request TO those who really
want them and are able to support
them in the way a Boston woman
should be supported. Although the
supply in and around Boston is so
great that the girls may be sent out in
carload lots, this does not mean that
any bachelor will be supplied with
more than one at time.
After mature elaboration it is not
expected that any bachelor will ask
for more than one wife at a time, any
how, especially one of the Boston
variety. Culture is all right, of course,
but to thrust too much of it upon
Northern or Western man all at
once would not be humane.

I very greatly doubt, in connection
with my confessedly superficial study
of this subject, that the name Baraboo
came from barbel, given, 1t has been
ingeniously surmised from fish that
was found in profusion in the river.
The barbel is a fish of coarse grain,
abundant In Europe, but not found in
America, attaining three feet or more
length and having several "feelers"
| (barbe) about it's lower lip or jaw,
French, barbe or beard. This seems
a somewhat tanciful derivation and L
think we may quite as well discredit
the same as rather improbable. The
fish is not related to the sturgeon as has
been surmised and it also se6ns to the
writer we may not assume that
the river was so called from the
fact that 1t teemed with stur-
geon, the French name for which, is
l'esturgeon. Nor must we confess
barbel with carp French; carpe) which
has no similarity, nor yet with the

Is it not most probable, since we are
dealing with more or less of uncertain
ty and conjecture. that the name Bar
aboo came from the French word bar
or barriere? & (Webster says bar is a
bank of sand, gravel, or other solid
matter, forming shoal at the mouth
of river or aharbor, obstructing en-
trance, or making it difficult-precise-
ly of same Specification in French, as
French barre-Spanish and Italian

since we know that it has been stated
on divers occasions, that there was a
bar or barrier at the mouth, ''end,'
or outlet, of the river? In other words;
at it's confluence with the Ouisconsin.
