WATER IN RIVER
WILL BE MANY
FEET DEEPER
Reliable Source Says Water Under
Merrlmack Bridge VIII Pile Up
Fourteen Feet More

from a reliable source the water IN
Lake Swenson will be about fourteen
feet deeper by the time the dam at the
power plant at Prairie du Sac has re-
ceived its finishing touches. After the
fourteen feet have been added all the
girls in Merrimack and all the visitors
from afar can fall into the stream at
any time without fear Of injury by
striking the bottom.
Henry Walter Young has written an
article for the Multiple Magazine OF
Chicago which says that the dam at
Prairie du Sac has cost about two mil
lion dollars. This does not take into
consideration the fowage rights along
the Wisconsin river. These have cost
another fortune.
When the wheels in the big power
building are all turning merrily, the
horse power developed will be about
80, 900. The major portion Of the energy
created will go to Milwaukee. Madison
is under a franchise with another COM
pany and may not be able to take ad-
vantage of the Prairie du Sac plant.
Of all the dams in the middle west,
the one at Prairie du Sac is next in size
to the one at Keokuk, where the Missis-
sippi is throttled. The author of the
article speaks of the promoters, engi-
neers and builders as giants who have
had large problems to solve in bringing
into existence the new power plant at
Prairie du Sac.

EXPLORING THE
WIDE, WIDE WORLD

Ralph Maloney and Arthur Schadde
have gone from Baraboo to see if the
world is round or fiat. Just which di-
rection they have taken their relatives
desire very much to know. tits said
that Arthur Schadde had over one
hundred dollars in bank and did not
forget to fortify himself with this be-
fore leaving for parts unknown. There
was no apparent reason for the boys
leaving and evidently their greatest
desire is to see something of the world
before 1914 is ushered into 1915.

HOUSEWIVES DISPUTE
WITH BOARD OF HEALTH

Manchester n. H., May. 15.-Members
of the Manchester Housewives League,
recently formed, have entered into an
open controversy with the board of
health, specifying in effect that the
health authorities are lax in the per-
Torrance of their duties. Some time ago
a committee from the league conferred
with the board, charging that markets
in Manchester were disregarding the
state pure food laws regarding the SAN
itary display of foodstuffs.
The health board. through its secretary,
w. j. Robbins, replied that inspectors
had investigated the complaints and
found the accusations without founda-
ton.
Mrs, Lota Norton Curtss. president OF
the Housewives League, in a heated re-
jionder to the board says that the in
spectors display an amazing unfamiliar
ity with the laws of the state, and that
the department is being deceived.
