for the reform Of the House Of Lords.
and for legislation regarding land
ownership.
The principal fight Of the session
will center on the Home Rule bill.
Although the measure will become
law automatically as soon as IL has
been rejected by the Lords, IL is not
vet known lust what policy the peers
propose 10 adopt. II is suggested
that by deferrng consideration they
can avoid the provisions Of the Veto
Act, which says that a bill must he
rejected or not passed during the ses-
sion. Some argue that If the session
is prorogued before the Lords have
taken up tho bill, IL cannot become
law. but the government legal ex-
perts dispute this contention.
Woman suffrage Will also lead to
lively debate, as a private members

EXCELLENT WORK BEING DONE


Through the efforts of the Wausau
Advancement Association about
S3500.00 had been collected last year
to be used In the building of good
roads in this territory. This sum
together with that raised by the
town, county and state placed total
pOSal of the Highway Commissioner
and caused great many people all
kinds of worry lest the sum might
not be used or perchance wasted.
The tirst piece of road-that in the
town of Flieth-i now completed
and certainly an excellent highway
and II Commissioner Brown keeps
up as well on the other rOaliS
as he has on the town OF
Flieth road he will make record
that he can be proud of. The
Stettin road is fast nearing compile
ton and the state highway engineer
has expressed himself as very much
pleased with all the road work at
present in progress in this county.
Contracts have been let to sbraighten
out the Schofield road, probably the
poorest road in the entire county,
and work has started on the job and
1t will be completed this fail. The
so-called west Merrill road is also
under construction and the balance
of that road is to be dragged and
kept in passable condition by means
of good roads association that is
being organized through the efforts
of Secretary A. G. Schmidt of the
Wausau Advancement Association.
The different automobile owners will
be asked TO contribute $500 each
while farmers along the road will be
to membership on paying
slO0 annually. This money will be
used to pay for keeping several King
drags on the road Immediately after
every rain. While King drag can
not build a macadam road it can as
sist materially in keeping the road in
ard will improve any road
that has been neglected until ruts
have developed, as the drag will fill
up the ruts and gradually develop
crown that will take care of the
drainage of the highway and where
the water is taken care of road is
generally in pretty good condition.

THE PACKING PLANT
Reduction Of the High Cost Of Living,
Via the Packing Plant
Route.

WauSau, Wisconsin, will have a
demonstration of reduction of the
high cost of living when the Cooper
ative Packing Plant commence oper-
ationS.
Those connected with this move
ment are making preparations for the
preliminary work to start September
lst, and in their opinion this Farm
er's Packing plant will accomplish
the following objects: Create direct
market for live stock, higher prices
TO the grower of live stock and low
er prices to the consumer. More and
better live stock will be grown in the
surrounding country when a direct
and profitable market is established.
Another industry that will be de-
veloped is "Stock Feeding" Mara
thon county and northern Wisconsin,
with its natural forage crops, offers
splendid opportunity for feeding, but
heretofore it has been too far away
from the markets to make it COM
mercially successful. But with the
local Packing plant, stock feeding
will become an extensive business;
not only will the experienced feeder
from the southern states make this
county field for his operation, but
the home farmers will soon see the
folly of yelling calves and selling So
called Gamers and become feeders,
using .silage corn which can be ex-
tensively grown here in the winter
and the natural grasses OF the cut
over lands i'm the summer.
Two sites for the new plant have
been under consideration for some
time, both sn the west bank of the
Wisconsin river.
If Wausau lets the opportunity go
by by failing to boost for the packing
plant, it will have failed to grasp the
greatest opportunity for the develop
ment of the Agricultural interest of
Marathon county.
