MIR ROOSEVELT ON SAVING OF PUBLIC DOMAIN

proved inefficient yet the land laws
themselves have nos been so much TO
blame as the lax. unintelligent and often
corrupt administration OF those laws.
The appointment on March a. 1907, OF
James X. Garfield as Secretary OF the In
terror led TO a new era m the interpreta-
ton and enforcement OF the laws govern
ing tue public lands his administration
of the Interior Department WAS beyond
comparison the best We have ever had.
IL was based primarily or the conception
that 1t is as much the outy Of puolic land
officials TO help the honest settler get
title 10 mis- claim as il Is TO prevent the
looting OF the public lands. The essential
fact about public land frauds is not mere
~ thai public property is stolen, but that
every claim fraudulentls acquired stands
in the way OF the making OF home or a
livelihood by an honest man.
As the study OF the public land laws
proceeded and their administration im-
proved public land policy was formu-
lated in which the saving OF the re-
sources on the public domain for public
use became the leading principle There
followed the withdrawal OF coal lands ms
already described. OF oil lands and phos-
phate lands. and. finally. just az the end
Of the administration. OF waterpoweI
sites on the public domain. These with
drawals were made 10y the Executive In
order TO afford 10 Congress the necessary
opportunity 20 pass wise laws dealing
with their use and disposal, and the great
crooked special interests fought them
with incredible bitterness.
Among the men of this nation inter
csted in the vital problems affecting the
welfare Of the ordinary hard working men
and women of the nation there is none
whose interest has been more intense and
more wholly free from faint OF thought

Approaching Wisconsin.

Until recently thousands of people
and millions of dollars were annually
leaving this state for the enrichment
of other states and Canada. Now the
first thought is opportunities in Wis
consin. Not only is this true, but we
are getting people and capital from
other states. Surely everyone in the
state should be nleased with these
facts.
But the upbuilding of Wisconsin is
being done along legitimate line-the
truth is told to all inquirers. Those who
come to the state find conditions as
they have been represented and are
pleased. Hundreds of thousands of
erstwhile idle lands are being subdued
and put to use in the upper counties OF
the state every year and made to yield
handsome returns. In a short time
there will be little vacant land in Wis.
consiH.
Is this not better for the state thar
to have our money and people going
elsewhere?

FIRST AID IN CUTS.

Peroxide of hydrogen in dirty
wounds is false prophet Too many
are putting unwarranted faith in the
antisceptic qualities of this solution.
In many instances its employment is
positively dangerous. This is true in
deep wounds such as are caused by
stepping on mai or in Fourth of July
Injuries for example.
Peroxide of hydrogen appeals to
popular fancy because it is such an ac-
! tive, stir-about sort of remedy. 1t
| foams and bubbles until it seems as
| though it must drive all infection out
of wound by it's busy-body methods.
Like some other busy bodies, it has no
brains. 1t drives infection in, as well
as out. In wide open cuts, it is likely
| to do no harm. On the other hand, it
does little good Clean cuts heal quite
as promptly without chemical assis-
lance
Probably the best, safest, cleanest
and most convenient household anti
septic is alcohol absolute, not wood or
denatured) In addition to being a
most efficient germ killer, il quickly
evaporates after doing tbs work and
leaves the tissues in ideal condition.
Healing salves and ointments"
don't heal. They simply keep germs
from delaying the natural repair. AL
cohol will do this quite as well and
| doesn't smear the cut to catch other
dirt, or make mess for the surgeon to
wash away. Carbolic acid solutions
are likewise attended by danger and
are little used nowadays, even by sur
geons. Scaling a wound which may
contain germs with collodian, plasters,
or any preparation which makes an air
and water tight coating is dangerous.
The hands of whoever treats wound
should be clean in order that no addi-
tional dirt or germs may be introduc-
ed. Thorough washing of the hands
and rinsing in alcohol will suffice in
ordinary circumstances. To staunch
bleeding don't use eobwebs, tobacco,
etc. Clean lint and absorbent ravel-
inps will do as well and will add no
new sources of danger For dressings
only clean wrappings should be used.
If cloths are not certainly clean, satur-
ate them in alcohol and wiring out.
In serious injuries it is expected that
competent surgeon will be employed.

Let Rotation Include the Meadows
Frank Mischo,
Town Clerk

Many farmers practice a good sys-
TEN of rotation except that they dis
like to pillow up the meadows. Some
In ohe older settled portions of the
state say that they sometimes have
difficulty in getting catch of clover
and therefore dislike to pow up the
hay land. This practice of leaving the
meadows simply makes the situation
all the worse, for it is demonstrated
fact that the more humus there is in
the soil the more certain the catch of
clover.
Up in the northern counties. where
it is said, They stack all the hav out
doors there is room for and put the
rest in the barn." there is more ex-
cuse for leaving the meadows, but
even there they should be alternated
frequently. In addition clover should
be sown with all crops and plowed I'M
der to add humus Then there will be
little question about clover catching.

be that lands now assessable.at $40 to
