between the city and the company re-
garding the matter, and only recently
the railway company was given to un-
derstand that deed to the land had or
was to be secured and the company
would be expected to commence grad
ing and the road completed before
winter.
Mr.. w. A. McHenry says he was
never consulted in the matter; that
the land belongs to him and is there
fore not for sale. He suggested that
the company place an alarm bell at
the crossing and the snow fence be
removed, together with one or two of
the small knolls of earth, after which
the danger will be limited to a very
small degree.
Hundreds of people, who come to
DenisOn from the west of town, have
long been expecting the opening of
this new highway. and now the dis
appointment will be very keen. OF
course the failure to build the road
relieves the council from a somewhat
embarrassing position, the finances
of the city are at low ebb at this seas
on of the year, and if the road had
been built money would have been
borrowed. However, agitation may
cause the business men of the city to
again open negotiations for the road.
The council at the Monday night
meeting allowed the regular monthly
bills, and transacted the usual busi-
ness for the month. The matter of
appointing a nightwatch was held up
by the mayor, because the present in
cumbent, ]. B. Mcclellan, has not yet
sent in his resignation. 1t is under
stood, however, that A. c. Greene will
eventually be appointed. The mayor
had his report ready for the Monday
night meeting, showing the different
amounts of money collected by him
and turned into the city treasurer,
since April 1, 1913.

PUNCTURE IN HIS STORY
George Wall Spending
Several Days in the Sauk
County Bastile.

Persons desiring to communicate
with George Wall may do SO by
addressing him at the Sauk county
iail. George took so much of the
goods Ethat made Milwaukee famous
that he remained s'out in the dew" all
night. Sometime during the
darkness Wallis face took on a
complexion like meat chopper and
there was trouble anead. The
police gathered him in and Justice
Andre listened to his tale of woe. He
told the court he was beaten and rob-
bed but The court happened to know
that pay day had not passed but was
approaching and for that reason there
must have been puncture in Wallis
story. "Five days in jail," said the
court as he proceeded to give the fel-
low a page OF history in his big book.

TIE Biggest
Egg Story

Philip Gibbons has come to town
from his new farm with the biggest
egg story of the season. Recently he
moved to a place within sight of the
new boulevard lights and when he
went home from the city few days
ago hoy acquaintance accompanied
him to learn the kinks of country life.
When the farm was reached the former
alderman told the boy be might take
candy Eail, which held about half a
busheI, and gather the eggs while
the owner of the place put away the
team and attended to the chores. In
due time the youth emerged Juggling
the pail heaped with eggs and shouted
to Mr. Gibbons: "Say, you sure have
some fine layers"
Mr.. Gibbons nearly fell over. The
boy had visited every nest and robbed
the setting hens of their precious
treasures. 1t is hard to imagine what
the hens thought but one can readily
think what went through the mind of
the owner. The warm eggs with the
interiors in all stages of incubation
were selected from the pile as fast and
as well as possible but when it came
to putting the right eggs under the
hens again-that was another matter
Every nest will be sending forth little
chicks, all at the same time, and no
more boys will be sent to gather "hen
berries" on the Gibbons farm.

NEW MARRIAGE
LICENSE LAW
Hereafter Special Dispensa-
tons Will be Decid-
edly Rare.

AZ new law Ii SIS been passed which
will make special marriage licenses
decidedly rare. In the past young
couples have been in the habit OF
keeping the nuptial secret from their
friends until the wedding day when
thew would seek a judge who would
grant a special permit for small fee
Tn the future, only when one of the
contracting parties is critically i'll and
in one other instance will the special
permit be given. Hereafter the Judge
will collect two dollars for the permit
which must be turned into the county
treasury. In some counties, especially
along the border Of the state, many
Judges have been making considerable
money by granting the special permits
and this in the future will be only a
dream. The new law also requires
that one of those seeking a special
hermit must have resided in the coun-
to 20 davs OF more. Senator True was
the author of the law some years ago
which required licenses to be issued
FIVE davs before the tying of the knot
and is the author of the new law
which imposes greater restrictions. Ii
is aimed to increase publicity before
weddings occur.

MUST KILL GRUpS
CORN CROP HURT
Professor Sanders Tells of
the Ravages of the
June Beetle

~
Something must be done 70 save
Wisconsin from insect pests, says
professor J G. Sanders, state ento-
mologist, and particularly just now to
check the ravRges of the white grub
which throughout the southern part
of the state is working havoc to the
corn crops. There are millions of the
grubs just now, said the professor.
Professor Sanders said that in
Grant county the corn crop is practi
cally ruined and that all throughout
the southern section of the state the
loss will range from 80 to 80 per cent.
The white grub, Professor Sanders
said, is the worm that develops into
the June beetle but it takes three
years to arrive at the beetle stage and
during that period it lives on the roots
of vegetation. 1t is the three-year-olds
he said, that now are working havoc in
the corn fields.
Proper rotation of crops and fal
plowing, Professor says, are the most
effective methods of combating tbs
grub.

Went TO War

A recent issue contained an article
from Mrs. L.. A. Dudley of Durward's
Glen on "The Only Soldiers Grave in
the Glen" A reader has written to
Mrs. Dudley that it recalled the past
in the town of West Point where, in
one of the school districts, nearly all
of the young men in September, 1861,
responded to call for volunteers.
Among the first to enlist were William
Madison, James Henderson and
Michael Donahue, Company A, 18th
Reg. Wis. Vol. They enlisted for
three year or during the war, We're
never wounded and returned home in
good health. William Madison died
many years ago, and James Hender-
son lives at Manistee, Mich. The
writer requests that these names ap-
pear as some would like to read OF
them again. The visitor is at the
DeIls and hopes to call at the Glen
during the summer.

Had Lost His sMoney as
the Result of a Debauch
Some Days Ago.

J. Roberts, once employed by the

struction work. was run over and
killed by an engine near La Vale
Thursday night. Recently he was
discharged and after drawing his pay
went to Wone voc where he took on
such aload of booze that it was nee
essary to make an arrest. The fine
and costs reduced his cash to 10 cents
and with this he made his way to La
Vaile on freight train. He returned
TO the camp Thursday afternoon and
was again employed by the foreman.
He obtained his supper and then
went 10 La Vale where some Of his
friends purchased the drinks for him
and he swallowed so much booze
tnat he was not in possession OF
his faculties as sober man would be.
The last seen of him alive was
when he walked away into the night
about IL o'clock. About 2:15 his life
less body Was found, very mucn mutt
lated. The accident occurred on the
south track and as an engine and
caboose was the only train which
passed over that track it is presumed
ne was killed between IL and 2:15
O'clock by the lone engine with the

companions that his home was in San
Francisco. He was aged about
25 years. InGetlnent at La Valle.
District Attorney James3iH. Hill
was called to LaVaIle, but no inquest
was held. From the fact he had no
money and had been drinking it is
believed that he came to his death
from being struck by the passing
engine.

BEST BUTTER MEDAL
Core From Iron River--Old
Manuscript Poem--Bar-
aboo in 1888.

The following are contributions 10
the Sauk County Historical society:
VIM. Cowles, town of Barab0o gives
an iron gouge used in tapping sugar
trees In the early days. The lnstru-
ment is nine inches long with thick
blade two by three inches. 1t is shaped
much like a child's spade or shovel
and when it was desired to tap a tree
fn the spring the instrument was
driven into the bark and wood from
above and then from below, about or
inches lower down. This opened
the way for the sap to run by remov-
ing the chips and into the lower part
of the wound spiIe was thrust having
q wide portion next TO the tree. 1t
was found afterwards 1t was best to
use an augur and round spile so the
oouge was cast aside. There was a
time when maple sugar and molasses
were made near the home OF Mr.
Cowles. The gouge is about the only
thing that survives of that early
day.

DANGER FROM GRIPPE
Lies in That Cough and Weak,
Worn-out Condition.

Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia, these
are greatly to be feared az this time
of the year.
To prevent grippe from being fol-
lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo-
MIA, it is important to drive the last
traces Of it out of the system quickly.
Our advice is to take Vinol, our
delicious cod liver and iron prepara-
tion without oil, and get your strength
and vitality back quickly.
Mrs. A. A. Grabill, of strasburg,
Va. says: Grippe left me weak, run
down and with a severe cough, from
which suffered four years. tried
different remedies, but nothing seemed
to do me any good until I took Vinol,
from which I received great benefit.
My cough is almost entirely gone. and
I am strong and well again, and I am
glad to recommend Vinol to others
who suffer as I did"
Try Vlnol with the certainty
that If it does not benefit
you we Will give back your money.

AN UNSUCCESSFUL FARMER.
He Made Monev But II Did Not Do
Him Much Good.

The Progressive Farmer says that it
once had letter from our friend, Capt
J. o. Stribbling, of South Carolina, in
which he told Us about money-mak.
ing farmer be knew. This farmer
had accumulated more than 100000
and he had made it all farming and
saving what he made from the farm.
The man had not done better farm
ing than other farmers about him, but
he saved everything he made. A
"good friend to ME and Others" Capt.
Stribbling described him, "but an ene-
my to himself and family" Not that
be was bad man, but merely what
we sometimes call o "close" man. His
children received but little education
and saw bat little of the world. Other
farmers in the neighborhood contri-
buted to the building of churches and
school houses, this man loaned money
to contribute. Others spent money
for new seeds, mproved implements
and better stock; this man did not;
he saved his money and when misfor-
tune came to others he still gathered
in the interest on his loans and kept
that, too.
A money-making farmer he was, but
he was not a successful farmer, for the
simple reason that he neglected the
essentials of life in his eagerness to
gather more money. Such farmers
would never build up a comm unity or
promote the prosperity and welfare Of
a State. Capt. Stribbling in his letter
we'll described the kind Of men who
must be denended on to do these
things-men who improve their land
and premises; breed aud use good
stock; look out for improved seeds,
implements and methods; who send
their sons and daughters to college or
training schools; who farm with their
own money. and who believe in plain
living and high thinking.
A man can be successful without
making great deal of money; he
can make great ceal Of money with
out being successful. So we beg to
remind every reader that, desirable as
it is that he make money out of his
farming the coming year, it is even
more desirable that he devote the
money he makes to such use as will
BEN f. his family and his community,
and that hr keep always in mind the
fact that money is good thing only
SO far as it is used for good purposes.
