Western Canada's Bad Luck.

Last year the farmers of western
Canada had a good wheat crop but
had to sell it at very low price
so low that a commission of the
Saskatchewan government showed
that there was nothing in the crop
over the actual cost of production.
Now we find in the board of trade
columns of the Chicago Tribune Of
September the following:
The report of the Winnipeg
Free Press making the western
Canadian crop of wheat only 1855, %
10000 bushels against about 209, p
900, 900 bushels last year, was a
factor in checking selling of wheat.
The crop is the smallest ir a num-
Der of years and is not only small
but the bulk of it is of poor quality.
The oats yield was placed at $50,
900, 900 bushels, this crop also be
ing of poor quality
Such is the luck of the people
who have left this country for the
distant Canadian prairies. If they
have good crop the price is so
low that there is nothing in it; and
with the occasional good crops
comes a lot of poor ones. More un-
fortunately this year, the quality
is also poor.
1t is different in Wisconsin.
Here the crop is always good, the
quality is always good and the
price is always the highest. And
there is good cheap land still in
the state.
But there are other branches of
farming that pay better in Wiscon-
sin than wheat raising, and that
/ conserve the fertility Of the soil
which IS another way of saying
that, no matter what branch of
farming you want TO do, the cheap
lands Of the upper Wisconsin coun-
ties will give you the best oppor-
tunities

Old Resident Dies.

Mrs. Joseph Faul passed away
shortly after eight 0 clock Wednes-
day evening at the family home.
The cause of her death was cancer,
with which she had been i'll for a
long time. She went to Ann Arbor,
Mich, a short time ago and sub
mitted to an operation but appar-
emily got little relief. While it was
known that her ailment was of a
serious nature her death was sud
den and unexpected.
Augusta Paulina Faul was born
at Linden, Wis, March 80, 1889.
She came to Hurley twenty-six
years ago and has resided heresince.
She leaves her husband and eight
children, Edward, Burt, Flossie,
Orville, Howard, Winnie, Arthur,
and Claude. The funeral will take
place Sunday afternoon from the
Methodist church with burial in
the local cemetery.
The deceased had a wide circle
of friends and acquaintance among
whom her demise has caused a pro-
found sorrow. She was a member
of the Methodist Episcopal church
and took an active interest in the
welfare of the church, always en-
deavoring to live up to the princi-
pies thereof, and while her serious
ailment was of great concern to
her relatives and friends she bore
il uncomplainly.

EUROPEAN CHRISTMAS SHIP.
Nation Wide Movement to Provide
Christmas Cheer for the Suf-
ferers in Europe.

The movement to send a Christ
mas ship to Europe has become ma
ton wide and all over the country
gifts are being gathered together to
be sent to the orphan children and
others in the war stricken coun-
tries. The movement was started
by the Chicago Record Herald sev-
eral weeks ago and has now assum-
ed extensive proportions. The rail
roads of the country. will render
assistance by transporting the ship
ments free of charge to Brooklyn,
where they will be placed aboard
an American ship and transported
to Europe, there to be distributed
among the needy. This ship will
sail from Brooklyn Nov 10, and
as the time IS short those wishing
to contribute gifts are urged to
make haste. 1t is desired to have
all shipments at Brooklyn by Nov.
8.
Hurley will be represented in
this Christmas ship movement.
Prof. Murphy of the local public
schools has taken the matter in
hand so far as the school children
are concerned, and the children
have been asked to take part in the
movement. Committees to receive
the gifts will be appointed, after
which they will be sent to Chicago.
Agent Kohl OF the Northwestern
this week received notice from the
general freight agent to accept ship
ments to be transported free of
charge. All packages should be
marked plainly with the name of
the sender on the outside and ad-
dressed to Mr.. James Keely, Pugh
Terminal, Warehouse B, Chicago.
Toys are not desired as much as
useful articles. Those at the head
of the movement in Chicago say
that enough toys have already been
received and urge that useful arti-
cles be sent.
This Christmas ship movement
is a Commendable one and shows
the spirit of the American people
in coming to the aid of stricken
humanity. The Christmas ship
swill help materially to spread
Christmas cheer among the unfor-
tunate people of Europe, especially
the children.

Building a Greater State.

What Is a greater duty upon the
part of a citizen than to take
hand i'll the matter of building
greater state? Perhaps someone
will say that it is building a great
er community We will not argue
that feature of the situations a
matter of fact one is mixed with
the other so closely that it is diff
cult to act in one line without af-
fecting the other. What is wanted
is the booster spirit nationally GOV
erned, demand for better things
and action to secure them.
Some are inclined to think that
this building Of better communities
has value only or&say, the real
estate dealer or perhaps certain
line of merchants. If railroad
were proposed they can only see
that the builders will likely receive
a dividend on their investment. If
a campaign for better farming, for
illustration, were proposed mer-
chants will say that that means
nothing to them-this is not so
much the case as it used to be but
it prevails too much even now.
There are many sections in up
per Wisconsin where villages pre-
vailed without any farming com
munlty and when any effort was
made to develope the country agri-
culturally many merchants and
professional men frowned upon
such efforts. Happily such condi-
tions prevail no more, but it illus
trates inactivity in community
building in an aggravated form.
These village people needed farm
ers for patrons-they were asleep
to the situation.
Fortunately sentiment in Wis
Consin has been awakened very
materially along the line for better
conditions. We have organizations
whose efforts are devoted to build
ing better communities and others
whose efforts are on a statewide
basis. There is no citizen who
should not be interested in this
work-it is to the interest of all
that it should go forward.
What greater enconium is pos
sible than that man was active in
community and state building? In
what effort can there be greater
satisfaction? The reverse need not
be stated-no one would want the
standing of having withheld his
support from such effort.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE
. COMMITTED PLANS
GRADE SCHOOL TOUR
Would Find Suitable Room in Each
Building Where Work Can
Be Taught

An inspection tour through the
grade schools of the city for the pur-
pose of planning domestic science
courses in the lower grades will be
decided upon at the meeting of the
school board on Friday night.
William A. Boil, chairman of the
special committee appointed to look
into the proposition of putting do
mestic science course in grades below
the high schools, said this morning
that he hoped to have the committee
visit each building in the district by
next week and determine whether in
stallation of the course would be prac-
ticable.
On the committee are these direc-
tors: President, Harry A. Boyer,
Adam Houtz and A. f. Werner.
AT the meeting Friday night the
whole board will be asked to discuss
the matter, Mr.. Boil said, and If pos
sible, tentative plans made that the
inspection can be more intelligently
made. The committee wants to find
q suitable room in each building where
all the pupils taking the course will
receive instruction in cooking, sewing
and other household work.
The finance committee meets on
Thursday night. but Mr.. Boil says
nothing of Importance will come up
except the payment of bills

Two Can Push
Harder Than One

That rs literally true when
both are pushing in the same d.
1t clearly states the case re-
garding the new idea of cooper
ative work between dealer and
goods advertised in the news
papers. 'T
In this case both are pushing
in the same direction towards In
creased sales and better service
to the consumer
1t Is the most parctical mer-
chandising idea that has been
suggested in half century and
is another evidence of the great
power peculiar to the neWspa-
pers of this country as a sales
producing agency.
Advertisers long ago realized
that the newspapers were the
surest and most efficient aover-
But they did not begin to reach
the great depths of productive
ness which the newspapers af-
forded, until the possibilities of
cooperative campaigning became
apparent.
This year more articles of
national reputation will be adj
vertised in the newspapers than
ever before, and In nearly every
instance this will be backed up
by earnest exploitation on the
part of the local merchants.
