Land Values Boom

A rapid increase in Wisconsin land
values, especially those in the nor
thern part of the state, has taken
place during the last ten years, as
shown by the annual estimate which
has been prepared by the Wisconsin
Tax commission indicating the aver
age value per acre in each county in
the state. The estimated value is
based on the prices paid in actual
sales recorded with the register of
deeds of the various counties.
The average for the state is $52.25
per acre, it being $41.25 five years
ago, and $3.50 in 1904.
The highest average increase is
that of Douglas county-$39. 00-its
estimate being $2575 five years ago,
and $14.57 in 1904. Douglas owes it's
supremacy, in this respect, to the
more advanced development of the
territory adjoining Superior and Du-
luth which furnish markets for farm
products.
The valuation for Rusk county is
given as 1925, the estimate of five
years ago being $15.25 and that of
1904 being $1,000

SOME WISCONSIN PLACE NAMES

No state in the Union is more for
tunate than Wisconsin in the pictur-
esqueness and historical interest of
it's place names. Each of the three
people who have successfully occu-
pied the State, the Indians, the
French, and the Anglo-Saxons, have
left to us in their place names rec
ord of their first impressions, and
sometimes even a trace OF legend
airy history. For aptness and eu-
phony none surpass the original In
dian appellations.
The name of the State and of it's
greatest river, Wisconsin, is a cor
rupted form of an Indian term whose
exact meaning is now unknown,
though it has usually been translat-
ed gathering of waters" Ouiscon-
sin, Wisconsing, OuiscOnching, Ouis-
kensing, Wisconsin are a few of the
,spellings which appear in old docu-
ments and on time-stained maps be-
fore the present form was evolved.
It is interesting to note that Michi-
gan and Mississippi, the names of
the two great waters which bound
Wisconsin east and west, are de-
rived from the same Algoquian root,
"michi'' and "missi" being but var
iants of an Indian word meaning
great" Michigan is thus great lake,
Mississippi, great river.
The name of the largest lake
within the State, Winnebago, sug-
gests an interesting history of the
Indian tribes whence it came. The
original Algonquin form was 'ouni-
pegou" meaning men of the i'll
smelling water" name which the
tribe gained from having originally
dWelt on the shores of Lake Winni-
peg, Well-knoWn for its odorous sui
phur springs. The French who ear
ly came to trade with the Winneba-
go, loosely translated the term into
their own LES Puants," meaning
THE Stinkards," an appellation to
which the tribe was long forced to
submit The student Of Wisconsin
place names may find much interest
ing data in the volumes of Collections
of the Wisconsin Historical Society.

They parted, laughing good-natured-
ly over the blunder.
Smith arrived home soon after, con-
graduating himself on his generalship.
ooh, jack" cried Mrs. Smith, as
soon as he stepped into the house, Il
hope you haven't had any troubled"

strenuous time I've experienced In
many moons" said Smith. Il came

I'm so sorry" said Mrs. Smith.
"Now hope you won't be angry, Jack.

moments when I discovered that you

ALL I found her book lying on the
floor by the comfortable, where, in
some way, 1t had been knocked of.
The only book that is missing is the
one that Mr. and Mrs. Perkins sent
us, so that must have been the one
that you sent to the Snivelys."
Mr.. Smith collapsed into the near.

"Ding-a-ling-a-ling," went the tele-
phone.
Mr.. Smith, still In a dazed condi-
ton, rose and answered 1t.
Hello, is that you, Smith," said q
voice. "This is Perkins"
Smith braced himself for the worst.
81 didn't quite understand about
that present you gave me down at
the office. When I got home found
that it had Snively's name on it."

Il thought there must be some mis-

"You say you didn't open it,"
"Ne."
Thank Heaven!"

just a little joke on Snively."
"Is that so? Well, I'll bring the

"Nonsense!" said Mr.. Snively. ITS

Mr.. Smith ground his teeth with
rage. How was he to get that book
away from Snively?

"But-but-" Perkins protested.
"Take it and keep your mouth shut,
or I'll choke you!" whispered Smith
fiercely.

After talking few moments longer,

MOST UNWILLING BRIDE.

A beautiful bride, who changed
her mind at the altar and fled, was
pursued, captured and brought back
to the church, where the ceremony
was performed. AS the couple about
to be married stood before the altar
in the village church of Kazantwip,
in Russia, the bride, Mile. Lebedew,
one of the most beautiful girls of the
district, suddenly tore off her veil
and shouted, 81 leave him. He is too
ugly. | don't want to marry him"
Mile. Lebedew then ran out of the
church, leaving the friends and rela-
tives aghast. She was followed by
the best man and another friend of
the bridegroom, and quickly caught.
Despite her protests, she was brought
back to the church, wherethe village
priest, unmoved, began the wedding
ceremony. Mile. Lebedew struggled
to get away again, but she was held
tightly by the b%ridegroom's friends.
Finally, tired Of the struggle, she
consented to say eyes," and the knot
was tied.
