Has Many Advantages.

Among the other influences that
make Wisconsin the leading dairy state
are: A climate that sustains the
health and vlgor of cows and permits
the production of the highest grade of
DAIRY produca universally pure water,
which is absolutely essential, and the
long experience OF the people of the
state in this industry.
But not all the people desire to do a
dairying business and the home seeke
who desires to do something else will
want to know what TIE state can offer
him Let US suppose that he desires to
produce beef or bacon. The REQUIRE
ments for that production are about
same. In upper Wisconsin there never
was and never will be a gevernm snt
quarantine against the shipment of
this beef and no hog cholera has ever
developed among the hogs of that sec
tion. In fact. there certainly is no
portion of the continent more promot-
i've of health and vigor in 1--we stock Of
any kind than the fertile regions of uD-
per Wisconsin. whore the homeseeker

The production Of beef and bacon
calls for the same pasturage conditions
as the dairy industry and in addition
the farmer in upper Wisconsin can
have his maws filled with finest clover
and alfalfa, his silos flied with succuI-
ent siIage and in addition ne can utilize
the wonderful pea crops Of that region
in giving that flavor to his bacon that
everybody wants. There are few places
as safe and one more prontable for the
production Of either beef or bacon.
Sheep Flocks Thrive.
The fact that many thousands Of
sheep are annually brought from the
west and fitted for market on the pas
tarage Of upper Wisconsin eliminates
the necessity Of discussing the product
( ion of mutton in upper Wisconsin.

NORTHERN COUNTIES
LANDS or PL END
Unlimited Opportunities In
Northern Wisconsin.

By A D. Campbell in Milwaukee Sentinel.
There is no consideration as import
ant to the homeseeker as that certain
ty of crops and the only one that
comes anywhere as important is that
of certainty of markets. This, of
course, is aside from the matter of
healthful climate
The bounteous crops of 1913 through
out Wisconsin and especially in the
counties of the upper portion of the
state are but another of the same kind
that have come before. The partially
settled portion of Wisconsin exceeds
even the older portion of the state IN
the certainty Of full crops, and more
especially in plenteous and continuous
pasturage.
Dairy Industry Grows.
That this Is of great value is sug-
gested in the fact that nowhere on the
American continent is tse dairy fhdas-
try growing as it is in the upper Wis
consin. counties The increase of the
business of single creameries per year
in that part Of the state would often
equal the addition of an average sized
creamery to the community. A cream
cry in one of the upper Wisconsin couH-
ties paid out more than $50, 200 for
cream in the month of June. Consider
ing that June is little more than an
average month under upper Wise nsin
practices this suggests an annual busi-
ness of practically a third of $1,000
600. Such a sum for single portion of
the output of one community leads one
to wonder what will be the total agri-
cultural output of the whole county.
And why is it that Wisconsin, al
ready the leading dairy state. with an
annual output approaching 500, 900, 900
is adding more cows than any other
stateY One of the reasons is that the
state is one of sure crops. What, Tor
instance, would the dairy farmer have
dune last year, who had built up herd
in the drouth stricken southwest. The
only thing he could do would be to sell
his herd for one fourth or less than 1t
had cost This suggestion IS a suffici-
ent answer and indicates why the dairy
business is being accentuated in a very
limited territory. But it is not the only
reason

THE THIRD TIME.

For the third time. Her hands. large,
homely and work-rasped, clutched un-
consciously at the newpaper-wrapped
lunch in her lap, as though they
clutched at the trip to her home of
which she was again deprived. She
locked through the car window at the
old buildings she had looked at twice a
day for many years. Eight-no it was
going on the ninth. And to think that
once she had been glad that she had
left the old country behind. Well, she
had learned to hate those buildings
before three years passed. and she had
nearly enough saved to take her back
to the old dull land where her parents
and Johann lived. Dull and old it
might be, and dull and old were her
parents faces-so she had thought
when she left. Johann's face was dull,
too. She had looked at it for the last
time unconcernedly. America was the
land where people and places were
bright and bustlins.

that the brightest spot that America

novel candy booth could have a roof
supported by six huge sticks of old
fashioned red-and-white candy, made
by winding wooded poles with strips
of red and white cotton goods. From
the roof could hang fringe of pop
