swer to the question so often asked

the determination had been long fixed
in his mind to retire at the close of
his eight years service in the national

said, for an earlier announcement
that | would not again be candidate;
otherwise | should have SO announced

anyone" and the senator smiled as if
he had got some enjoyment out of the
many efforts to get him to speak-"no
even members of my family Knew"

turn to Washington about Aug. 10, or
sooner if occasion should require.

ard of Products.

eboygan.-Prominen cheese and
butter manufacturers of Wisconsin
will meet here on Aug. Is to take
steps to raise the standard of the
dairy products of the state. Back of
the movement is said to be the new
tariff law which is causing dairymen
everywhere to try to better their
product. They are compelled to make
better butter and cheese because they
cannot make a low grade as cheaply
as foreign dairymen who are sending
their product to America. At the
same time there is a growing demand
for the very best butter and cheese
that can be produced and the Wiscon-
sin dairymen plan to lead in quality
as we'll as in the quantity of their
products.
