sey bull at the head of the diff

several fine grade heifers are now
producing the milk and bntter
that tickle the palate of the sum

rich golden color so much sought

Guernsey cattle myself, on my
farm here in Wausau, and | be-

lieve in all kinds of breeds, what
ever suits the fancy Of the breed

from the scrub bull. Let several
of the farmers in the community
enter into agreement to purchase
a thoroughbred sire, then save
all heifer calves from their best
cows and in a very short time
you will soon see the benefits of
breeding
With best wishes for Vilasc oun-
tv, where | lived for ten years, |
remain, yours truly,

.i.lative Committee Hold
e Forestry Meetings at Court
gouse Thursday and Fri
day Last.
Notwithstanding the fact that
!. s ,iorsstrv hearing which had
y, U.s. scheduled for Thursday
q FRIDAY of last week by the
..Iatiye committee onforestry,
q been cancelled by the inter
l .sotv executive committee, the
' gsJ body arrived Wednes-
s. afternoon, intending to hold
n. .n meetings anyhow.
y rednesdayevening in thecourt
.,ons an open meeting was held,
frrssions being principally
,-.r the attitude of the people i'll
he proposed forest reserve tow
ID tbe committee and forestry
hoard in general
twas shown that, while this
seton was not opposed to for
strc on a conservative basis, it
50, decidedly against the taking
4 accredited agricultural lands
r forestry purposes and wiping
Insecurity off of the map. Also
eto alleged statements deroga-
my to us, which we were led to
5,ieye had been made by Mr..
Griffith and members of the leg
Sative committee during the
nst year and since the investi-
ation of a portion ofthe reserve
b. this committee early this win
ter.
It was explained to the com
nttee that Villas county was
rriectIv willing, and would rem
her aTlassiStance, to have a thor
ADMINISTRATION made in order
10 determine whether we have
arming lands or lands for fores-
ny culture. If the former were
10 themajority we objected siren
uousIy to its loss. If the county
was non-agricultural then we
would raise no objection.
With over FIVE hundred farms
scattered throughout the county
which were producing excellent
crops year after year, it was ex-
planned to the committee that
We we're sure of the richness of
the territory and therefore
would fight for our rights.
Thursday and FRIDAY there
were a great many farmers from
all over the county appeared
who had not received notihca-
ton that the meeting would not
be held, and they were given an
opportunity 10 testify before the
committee. Over TWENTY-FIVE
agrICulturalists were questioned
as to the character of soil, the
crops raised and the advance
nent OF the county agricultural
I'm the past ten years, or since
had ceased.
Deeming it necessary to secure
more evidence, the legislative
committee will again come to
Eagle River, Monday, March
10Th, to hold a two DAYS meet
1g tor the purpose of taking evil
snce from a greater number Of
aTmers, cruisers and land men.
rom here the committee will 60

u three day session, beginning
bout March 10Th.
At these meetings this winter
Ydencc will be secured, and
urIng the growing months the
ommttee will travel through
Ne county and corroborate the
'atements made by those who

the announcement did not in the least
disturb Verda.
81 hope they will be happy" said
Verda, in her usual sweet way. "It is
a rather hasty proceeding, however,
and Mr.. Ransom is not very well cir
cumstanced to care~f for wife, as
yet"
why, isn't his family very veal
thy, and wasn't you engaged to
him?"
"Oh, no." replied Verda. HE is
a cousin of Mr.. Wilbur Ransom,
whom hope to marry. We have been
courteous and attentive to him be-
cause of the relationship, but Mr..
Harold Ransom has not yet reached
any settled position in life, has moth
ing, and hope Florence will really
love him and help him get along in
the world"
There came a telegram to Mr..
Wood, asking forgiveness and well
come home. 1t was granted, and, the
Woods having some money, Mr.. Harz
old Ransom felt that he had not made
so bad bargain.
Florence however, made him take
her away from Wellville when the
sterling pure Mr.. Ransom led Verda
to the altar. She never again alluded
to her keen trick and its unexpected
outcome. She was the bitter bit, and
as such bore her chagrin and punish
ment in silence.
