MUST HAVE LICENSE.

ANY persons conducting eating
stands or restaurants on the county
fair grounds during the county fair
will be required to secure a permit
from the state board OF health, not
withstanding the fact that such
stands will be in operation only three
or four days. The ruling is made by
the board in response to an inquiry
from the Fond du Lac fair board.
Accompanying the communication
of the state board is ruling by the
attorney general which says:
"To conduct a restaurant at fair
for four or five days is certainly
Within contemplation of this statute,
and as permits are not transferable a
new permit must be secured for each
fair"
The state board will send inspect
ors TO visit fairs of the state, it is
said, and will institute proceedings
where the law is not observed.
Local fair officials viii be under
necessity of requiring applicants for
eating house and stand privileges TO
secure license, the cost of which is
500.

THE HAPPIEST MAN.

Have you read this description of
the happiest man." It's going the
rounds of the papers and the identity
of it's author has been lost, but it
reads very well anonymous:
THE happiest man in the world is
the common, everyday chap who
makes his own living, pays his bills
and has the respect of his neighbors
He saves little money as he goes
along, but doesn't try to get a corner
on the local output and he is not a
slave to ambition or to society. He
never expects to wear out his trousers
in the senate, and when he glides out
of bed in the morning he never wastes
any time trying TO pick out the right
tint of socks, suspenders and necktie
that will blend with the general
effect. He only wears a high collar
when he feels like it, and when his
pet corn begins to jump he jerks out
his knife and cuts four inch cash in
the side of his shoe and nothing is
said about it in the local paper. He
never has to poultice his conscience.
lie believes in the doctrine of live
and let live. When he encounters
one of the needy he doesn't stutter
with his pocket book. The plain plug
of man is happier because he is sat
isfied and he doesn't spend half of his
time yearning for something his sal
airy will not permit him to buy. Give
US more plain men and the world will
be BETTER

SUDDEN INSANITY

Paul A. Johnson of Rockford, ILL.,,
aged about % years. attempted to
jump through a window of the St.
Paul train near Knowlton last Tues
day evening and was cut about the
head. He was with his uncle, Charles
Sealander, at the time, being brought
to Wausau for medical treatment.
With the assistance of fellow pas
senger, the uncle managed to drag
him back into the coach. When the
train stopped at Wausau he escaped
his uncle's close watch and took Co
the country, being last seen at Scho-
field.
Wednesday afternoon, after lying
out in the woods all night and part
of the next day, the young man calm
ly walked into the police station and
gave himself up, telling the police
that ne had been laboring under the
impression that some one wanted to
kill him. He was taken to the coun-
ty hospital and cared for. Thursday
he again showed signs of violence
and attempted to batter his head
against the window bars. He was
taken to his home in Rockford on
Friday by his uncle, accompanied by
Henry Schwister. Up to the time of
his action on the train the young
man had not shown any signs of in
sanity and had been an exemplary
fellow. 1t is hoped that he soon will

IMMENSE BUSINESS.

Organization anu cooperation
among farmers is rapidly coming to
the front and becoming factor in
the business world.
The American Society of Equity,
with its national headquarters in this
city, shows on it's 1913 business report
that its members, numbering now
over 10000, did a cooperative busi-
ness of Sol 900, 900.
This organization now owns hun
dreds of grain elevators. produce
houses, creameries, etc. 1t maintains
its own grain and live stock selling
agencies in the terminal markets.
In legislative matters it maintains
its committees in all state capitols
and in the national capitol, looking
after the interests of it's members.
Many common sense laws have been
credited TO the work of this farmers
organization.

Buoyancy os Fresh and Salt Water.
A Chinese lad dropped his ball in .
narrow ho.g and could not get il out
SO he poured water in the hole. think
ing that he would float the bali to the
surface. IS the ball was slightly heay
Ter than water, it remained on the bot
tom. Then be thought of mixing salt
with the water, as he knew that salt
water would float denser objects than
fresh This he did and was rewarded
with the boating ball.
This particular fact is demonstrated
at the mouths of rivers. Objects rolling
along the bottom of a fresh river, too
heavy to come to the top. will rise
when they are carried out to sea. The
general rule also applies to floating
bodies. For instance, a ship with a
cargo on the sea will sink sometimes q
foot on entering a fresh water por-
On the other hand. if she leaves fresh
water port with her cargo she VIII rise
when entering the ocean. So a ship
may be loaded apparently too much at
a wharf and still be all right on the
waves.
In building q dam the fact OF sat
waters being heavier than fresh must
be taken into consideration. and the
dam for the same head must be good
deal stronger; this, TOO. without taking
i,.so consideration the beating OF waves.

PACKING PLANT A SUCCESS

The first farmers cooperative Pack
ing plant at Lacrosse received more
liue stock last week than was ever
received in that city for any one
month. Farmers are jubilant over
this new move as it enables them TO
receive full market price right there
at home.
Ira NJ. j. Chryst of Hudson, and J.
II. Carnahan of Black River Falls,
president and vice. president, respect
lively of the La Crosse plant, were in
Wausau last week to look over the
ground and determine whether enough
interest can be aroused to establish
such plant in our city.
Mr.. Chryst, in speaking of the de-
yelOpment of the cooperative pack
ing plant industry, said, "The great
est advantage in such move is the
cIeation of a direct market for the
farmers live stock, which co nsequent-
ly tends to develop the live stock in
dustry in the surrounding country to
its fullest extent"
Another move contemplated is to
establish and operate in connection
with the meat packing, a packing
plant for all kinds of vegetables and
in fact everything grown here that is
now packed in cans for the market.
This latter move is the result of
conference between officers of the
society of Equity and the consumers
of Chicago. Representa-
tives of the latter organization are
now comforting with the Equity farm
ers in different parts of the state.
