the best exhibits of grain and forage
plants shown at the twelfth annual
meeting of the Wisconsin Agricul-
tural Experiment association, to be
held at Madison from jan 9 to 10,

association have been amended to ad-
nit grain raised on any farm in the
state instead of limiting entries to
members alone, as heretofore, will
mean a much larger exhibition and
more general statewide interest in. the
dissemination OF better yielding
grain
The samples OF seed grain and for
with the exception of clover seed, will,
according to regulations, become the
property of the association and will
either be sold at auction or retained
for experimental purposes
Those samples that are given first
place in their respective classes, how
ever, will be entered in the world S
competition at the national corn and
grain show, Dallas, Tex, and the
grower will receive whatever awards
are taken there in addition TO his

consist of exhibits of both sheaf and

ton OF a male applicant for marriage

He says that the law does not in.
tend that the Wasserman test be
made. but only suggested an examin-
alton as could be made for So by the
physician with an ordinary service.
This Interpretation of the law is ex-
pected to free it of many of the
suggested pitfalls.

Attorney General Owen, 81 am of the
opinion that the law must be given
rather than one that Will defeat its
purpose and render its purpose I'M
constitutional and void
IF the physicians of the state will
accept the law in this spirit and en-
deavor to comply with its provisions, l
have no doubt but that it will prove
what it was intended to be, step in
the right direction and that the ex-
perience gained under its operation

ficiencies that may be found to exist

STEPHENSON HOME; SILENT
Wisconsin Senator Returns to Mari
nette for Holidays But Will Not
Tell of His Plans.

Marinette.-Tired after his labors
over currency and tariff bills as a
member of the senate minority, but
hale and hearty withal, Senator Isaac
Stephenson has returned to Marinette
for the holidays
1t was hoped that some time during
the recess the senator would break
his long silence with a statement re-
garding his political intentions. 1t is
the consensus of opinion here that
unless Stephenson does issue a state
ment to the contrary it may be as
sumed that he will make another cam
paign.
Members of his family Strenuously
oppose the idea of his continuing in
public life, saying the senator has
made no reply to their questions and
they are as much at sea regarding his
plans as is the general public.

contested tussle among the Demo-
cratic factions in the state
The original candidates for the
place were T. ]. Fleming. West Allis,
and State Senator S. ". Randolph,
Manitowoc. Mr. Fleming was said
TO have the favor of Secretary of

understood to be looked upon with
greatest favor by the progressive
wing of the democratic party in the
state
Mr.. Hemmy managed the Karel
campaign for governor, acting as
chairman of the state central COM
mittee- He was an original Clark
man. The fact that Wilson carried
the state is, by some, largely attrib-
uted to Mr.. Hemmy'5 efforts in his
