Germans Are On Defensive.

London, Nov. S.-9:45 p. m.-
The German and Austrian
armies are now on the defensive

have given up, at least for the
present, their efforts to break
through the Allied lines around

British and French have taken

NO TRUTH In IT.
Thugs Did Not Beat Man and Rob
Him-Too Much Booze

A man was found near the @. M. &
st. Paul depot on Tuesday night in
a seaii-unconscious state. He was
taken to the hospital and wound on
top of his head sewed up. He said
his hame was Thomas Bedin and that
he had been at Merrill working with
a construction crew. He had come
down from Merrill and shortly after,
met two men who engaged him in
conversation and one hit him over
the head. The facts are that the
man had been drinking and had fall
len, striking his head upon the edge
of the sidewalk, which cut an ugly
cash, from there he rolled off into
the grass where he was found. The
police found the edge of the sidewalk,
where his head struck, splashed with
blood and the mans breath indicated
that he had been bowling up which
is about the truth OF the matter.
The publication of such sensational
articles which are utterly devoid Of
truth, if continued, will give our city
a hard name. Recently young man
shot himself and he told story Of
being held up and robbed He final
ly admitted that he did it be-
cause of love affair, which did not
turn out as he would have it. Wau-
sau has never had any real hold ups
and you can put it down as fake
whenever such sensational story is
published

MAY CONTROL DANDELIONS.

People whose lawns are spotted
with bright yellow dandelions, beau
tiful but annoying, might well take
other methods for their control than
the mere use of a lawn mower or the
digging up of their roots. The
plant is perennial and perpetuates
itself by means of a long, narrow tap
root, and hence ordinary methods do
but little good.
Iron sulphate spray will do the
trick, especially where the plants are
tliickly spread. The solution recon-
mended by A. L. Stone, state seed in
spector, College Of Agriculture of the
University Of Wisconsin, is made by
dissolying two younds Of iron sulpbate
in one gallon of water. The drug
comes in granular form and dissolves
easily. One gallon will be sufficient
to cover $50 square feet of lawn. A
sprinkling can will do to apply the
solution TO small lawns, but on affected
areas of any size hand pump fitted
with fine spray nozzle is best The
finer the spray the better in this case,
and the more completely the plants
are soaked The surer will be the re-
suits.
"Spray after the dew is off in the
forenoon when fair weather is prom
ised for the next As hours" advises
Mr.. Stone. This will give the poi
son time to get in its work. Never
apply the solution ON freshly moved
lawns. Do not sprinkle nor NOW the
lawn for three days after spraying.
1t may be necessary to use the iron
sulphate treatmant three or more
times during the season if the dande-
lions are thick and have been allowed
to go to seed A tablespoonful of the
compound placed on the crown of
scattering plants will complete the
work of destruction.

BANKERS AT WORK.

The bankers of Wisconsin have
taken hand in the development oi
Northern Wisconsin. Their plan is
to send trainloads of would-be in
vestors up to the northern counties tC
see the development work going or
| for themselves.
| The first trainloSd of 100 rich bank
ers and farmers will leave Milwaukee
June II to visit sections of the state
south of Ashland. Members of the
Wisconsin Bankers association and
officials of the new Bankers Mortgage
and Securities Co. are backing the
project.
"We believe that millions of dollars
are going into investments outside OF
the state that ought to be spent in
Wisconsin" said Secretary George d.
Bartlett of the association. "These
investors have inadequate ideas OF
the northern part of Wisconsin. They
should see the country for themselves.
For that reason we have arranged to
take 100 bankers and farmers up there.
Each banker will be privileged to in
vite' one farmer Bankers from all
over the southern part of the state
will take the trip and we are sure
now that all of the 100 reservations,
which the 500 line is providing, will
be taken.
"We expect that these men with
surplus capital will see the advantage
of putting their investments into
their own state. We expect chat they
will go back home and tell the people
who contemplate to move not to &c
to the irrigated belt of the west, OF
to Canada, but to the fertile areas OF
the upper part of Wisconsin.
"If this trainload is success we
will send another trainload later on
some other railroad to the northwest
ern counties in the state, also another
to the northeastern section.
"Ne believe that this is the most
far reaching movement TO develop
Wisconsin that has ever been under
taken. We are going to show oul
investors where to place their money
and develop the farms of upper Wis
consin. We will also be instrumental
in sending over thous ands of people
into this section TO settle and build
farms.
''The northern part OF the state
needs capital. Our mortgage company
already has application for $l00,0oC
of farm loans from that section
And the company has been running
only two or three days. Before we
get through, millions of dollars OF
surplus wealth from the southern
part of Wisconsin will be poured in
to develop rich farming belt up
there"
The trip starts June II at 1000 p.
NJ. The first stop is Ashland, then
Bayfield,, Phillips, Rhinelander, Lady
smith, Prentice, Ingram, Eau Claire
and Marshfield

should try to get the bankers to stop
in Wausau. Get busy.

RAIN AND THE FIRES
A Deluge OF Rain Puts Out the Fires
All Over the North.

Up to last Wednesday night the
country throughout Northern Wis
consin and Michigan had become very
dry, and as always, before vegetation
starts up, it only needs the dropping
OF lighted match or the spark of a
passing locomotive to produce con-
Migration. In our own county there
was some bad fires caused from fires
set TO clear off land. These spread in
some instances and got beyond the
control of those watching same How
ever help was at hand in most cases.
A very fierce fire ragged in the old
choppings of the Brooks & Ross Lum-
ber company. Gill & Dawley Lumber
company have a million feet of logs
decked near Whit camp which have
had to be watched closely. Up in
Marinette county the farmers had to
close work and band together to save
their homes. This has also been the
case up north in the counties where
there is considerable uncleared land.
The heavy rains from Wednesday
night until Thursday night, however,
cleared up the atmosphere and put
out every fire. 1t was very timely
and covered a wide area. Nearly four
inches fell during the twenty-four
hours and the river raised nearly
three feet. If the ground had not
been 50 dry and parched, we certainly
would have had a good sized flood
AS it was the fires were extinguished
and vegetation and crops generally
helped along.
