on Forestry
Board.

Madison, Wis, Sept. 22,-George E.
O'Connor, Eagle River, has been APP
pointed member of the state board
of forestry, to succeed George Byers,
Oconto. who was appointed in 1906.
Mr.. O'Connor is republican leader
in the northern part of the state, and
was elected member Of the state
central committee at the platform
convention last week. Gov. McGoyern
made the appointment Monday.
In the last legislature he was lob
byist against the forestry policy of
the state, representing county boards
which are opposed to the present for
estry plan.
1.-THE appointment was made be-
cause Mr.. Byers has been unable to
attend the board meetings for over a
year." Gov. McGovern said Tuesday
II know that Mr.. O'Connor was in
terested in forestry matters, and | as
sumed that that part of the state in
which the forestry reserve is located

STATE FAIR NOTES

yilascounty did not make an exhibit
at tie state fair this year owing to
the eason, so it is said, that what
should have been eyeryone's business,
turned out at the proper time for ac-
ton, to be no body's business. A
creditable exhibit could have been
made with the $4,000 paid for space
boosting the county in the May num-
Der Of The Wisconsin Municipality
magazine, and in the way OF showing
people from Missouri, would have
been worth carload of hat more or
less, accurately gotten up pamphlet.
And if the forestry enthusiasts do
not make considerable capital out of
our failure to produce, when present
ing their side of the case to the leg
islature this winter, then Well buy
almost any one a new hat.

blissfully unconscious that there is
any feeling Of discomfort among Wis
consin tax payers caused by the in
creased taxation OF recent years.

legislature for an appropriation of
not less than $500, 10000 up to $3.50,
10000 while one cheerful optimiSt

THE RASPBERRY PATCH.

Just now the question which is con-
fronting the farmer is what treatment
he is to give the plantations which
have borne berries this season. 1t has
been found that the best treatment is
to cut out the old canes as soon as
they are done bearing. The new canes
should also be cut to the proper num-
Der in each place, usually about five.
The material which has been cut out
should be carried out of the patch and
burned. In this way much decay and
other fungous trouble will be avoided.
There are also many insects in the va
rious stages from egg 20 adult which
are destroyed by this practive. An
other thing that is gained is the better
development of the canes which are
to bear next year. They get more sun
light by such a plan.
When the canes have been cut out
and burned, it is a good plan to cul-
tivate between the rows, stirring up
the ground which has been tramped
by the pickers and putting it in fine
condition for the continued growth of
the plants.-R. P. Speer. Formerly of
University Farm, St. Paul.

LONG PRAIRIE.
From the Leader.

Mrs. Caroline Schroeder died at her
home in Long Prairie township Friday
evening about o'clock. Her death
was entirely unexpected and came as
a great shock to the family and neigh
bors. About noon that day she sui
fered stroke of appoplexy. She was
alone in the kitchen at the time and
was found shortly afterward on the
floor unconscious. Physicians were
called but nothing could be done to
help her and she passed away that
evening. The funeral was held Tues
day morning from the Baptist church,
Rev. R. B. Mahoney officiating and in
terment was in Evergreen cemetary.
Mrs. Schroeder was born in New
Munster, Wis, in 1847. If she had
lived one more day she would have
been CT years old. She and her hus-
band, who died about IL years ago,
came to Todd county in 1871, taking
a homestead which has been the
family residence ever since. She was
thus among the early settlers of this
locality. In fact when they settled on
their homestead the region there
.abouts was wilderness and neighbors
were few and far between. She and
her husband were pioneers, working
patiently, enduring hardships, and

for years with but small
reward. However, as the territory
developed their labors grew easier
and because of their industry and
thrift they were able to pass their de-
clining years in we'll earned comfort.
Our generation owes much to men
and women, who like Mr.. and Mrs.
Schroeder, laid the foundation for the
county's present prosperity and now
that they have passed, grateful
community should honor their MEM
DRY. Mrs. Schroeder is survived by the
following children: William Schroe-
der, of Browerville; Mrs. Catherine
Wallace, of Chicago; Ben Schroeder,
of Atlantic City, Wyo.; Frank Schroe-

Schroeder, of Breckenridge, this

FATTENING CHICKENS.

The loose-pen methods of fattenfne
market chickens might be properly
described as the practice of feeding
the birds in small yards or pens, in
lots Of from twenty-five to fifty. We
prefer this method for hroilers or
cockerels of the lighter breeds, such
as Leghorns, as they are very active
and are likely to be restless in the
crate. Our plan is to have a small
coop or shelter for roostfng, with a
small yard attached; the whole struc-
ture being portable. Each morning
at feeding time the coop is moved
distance equal to it's length. to give a
clean floor for the chicks. Where the
coop is placed in an orchard or grove.
it serves double purpose; for, besides
accommodating the chickens, it en-
riches the soil. A coop large enough
for thirty broilers should be three
feet wide, six feet long, two feet high
at the back, and three high at the
front; with three roosts running
lengthwise. The yard should be made
of three hurdles; two twelve feet long
and eighteen inches high. one six feet
wide, and large hurdle to cover the
top to keep the chicks from fly
ing over.-C. E. Brown, Poultry

CANDIDATE LEE APPROVES
Has Taken Strong Stand for Gov
Eberhart's Efficiency ReOrgan-
iZatiOn Plan.

William E. Lee, republican candi-
didate for governor, has agreed to
support the plan for the reorganiza-
ton of the state government proposed
by the Efficiency and Econos,ly COM
mission, says the Pioneer Press. Mr..
Lee has authorized the commission to
quote him as follows IN a weekly let
ter sent out to the state press by that
body:
"The late C. A. Morey of Winona
and myself years ago got together
started to figure out something along
the line that the commission has been
working, but when Mr.. Morey fell
down stairs and was killed, the work
was postponed for the time. When I
was member of the state board Of
control I advocated simr,ar reforms,
but conditions were NOT IN readiness
for it, but I have consistently been
in favor of the very things that the
commission is advocating, Tor many
years.
There seems to be disposition on
the part of some papers to make an
issue Of this report, between myself
and Congressman Hammond. I do not
see where an issue can be made. We
are both for it, ,
"The alignment of departments is a
first-class thing and should be adopt
ed, the budget system which I have
favored for many years, should also
be adopted, but the mos. important
thing of all is the civil service feature.
l would advocate that the three feat
ures be embodied in one bill and all
pushed through. Every member of the
Legislature should be pledged to sup
port it."
Mr.. Lee was lukewarm towards the
plan of the commission during the pri-
mary campaign but his Endorsement
of the plan was not unexpected in po-
litical circles, in view of the statement
made by candidate Hammond approx
ing it. Mr.. Lee, realizing that the
plan is popular one, felt, it is said,
that he could not afford to let his ri.
val get away with any glory IN con-
nection with it.
Much credit is being given to
Charles P. Craig of Duluth, chairman
of the commission, for his work in OBJ
tanning the Endorsement of both of the
leading candidates for governor to the
reorganization plan. 1t now seems
certain that the commissions report
will get respectful hearing in the
Legislature and that good portion
OF it, at least, will be adopsec.

OSAKIS.
From the Review.

James Anderson, a wealthy retired
farmer of this village, was instantly
killed at about l 80 Tuesday afternoon
on the old Soren Smith homestead, a
mile and a half east of Nelson village,
where he was helping his nephew,
Peter Smith, to put up his hay. Mr..
Anderson was driving the team that
was loading the hay into the big barn
by aid Of hay sings. sie was standing
directly behind the horses just as a
sling full of hay was being hoissed
into the barn, when one o. the tugs
pulled out Of the harness, and the
evener flew back with terrific force,
striking Mr.. Anderson in the nerve
plexus at the pit of the stomach and
killing him instantly. DR.. Gilkinson
was rushed out from town in his auto
and Mrs. Anderson was notified and
taken to the Smith farm in one of the
Mills livery cars. The accident occur
red when the first load of hay hauled
from the field after dinner was being
put into the barn. Mr.. Smith, the I'M
fortunate mans nephew, had eau
toned Mr.. Anderson in the forenoon
about standing directly back of the
horses when the loader was in opera
ton, but after dinner thoughtlessly
stepped behind the team just as the
tug gave way. James Anderson was
born in Denmark, Jan. 10, 1891, and
came to America in 1873, locating
first in Ohio. Two years later he came
to Osakis and bought farm on the
Osakis prairie. He was good farm
er and built up one of the finest farm
homes in the country. His first wife
was Mary Hendrickson, to whom he
was married in 1878. She was called
by death in 1896, and year later Mr..
Anderson married Miss Hannah Han
son of Montevido, Mimi, by whom he
is survived. There are no children.
Mr.. Anderson leaves sister, Mrs.
Soren Smith, of Osakis township, and
a half brother, H. P. Johnson, living
in the village. His tragic death is a
terrible blow to his wife and relatives
