GETS REWARD FOR USING
SAND TO PUT OUT BLAZE
Quick-witted EmpIoye Saves Suburbs
Telephone Service by Not
Using Liquid.

Because an employee used a can of
sand to put out a small fire instead of
a liquid fire eXtinguisher. which would
have been more convenient, he was
rewarded with substantial check by
his employer.
Grover Krautz. an employee in tel
ephone exchange in one Of Chicago's
suburbs, was walking near the switch
board when he smelled smoke. He
found several cords inside the switch.
board cabinet on fire.
Quick as flash he reached for an
extinguisher. The liquid container
was nearest. but his presence of
mind directed him to the can of sand
a little farther on. After subduing the
fire he reached into the mass OF
charged wires, grabbed the smoking
cords and tore them from the switch
board.
The damage was small-all because
he used the sand. The liquid extin'
cuisher would have rendered all the
wires ii touched useless and might
have deprived part of the suburb
of telephone service,

MRS. LANE BREAKS HIP
Will be Confined at Hospital Two or
Three Months.

Dodgeville Sun Republic, March g.
Just as she was leaving the high school
building after attending the lecture
course Saturday evening, Mrs. Richard
Lane was swept off her feet by the ter
rifle wind, and in her fall broke the
neck of the femur within the capsule of
the hip JOINT. She was carried to the
Austin home until a conveyance could
be secured to take her to her residence
Accompanied by DIR. w. j. Pearce she
was removed to the general hospital at
Madison Sunday afternoon, where an
Xray picture was taken and the frac-
ture located. 1t was decided the only
prospect of favorable recovery would
result from mailing the fragments to-
gether but week or ten days should
elapse before it was performed, allow
ing the effects of the injury to subside
The outcome of the union after the
operation is doubtful but the examin-
ing physician decided it was the only
chance of recovery. Mrs. Lane will be
confined to the hospital for two or
three months. Mr.. Lane, who is almost
helpless is being cared for by Mr.. Troy
during his wife's illness.

BACK To FARM" MOVEMENT
Encouraged by Short Course Men Of
the University Of Wisconsin.

1t is estimated that between so and
80 per cent of the $50 young men
graduating this week from the Short
Course in Agriculture at the University
of Wisconsin will return to the farms
of this state to actually engage in
farming.
The successes of former students as
dairymen, stock raisers, poultrymen,
orchardists, grain growers, and market
gardeners are yearly attracting an in
creased number to this practical farm
ers course. 1t has grown from 10
students in one room ON the third floor
of an old building in 1885, to include
$50 young men from 65 counties of the
state, from eleven other states and two
foreign countries in 1913.
In addition to the knowledge acquir-
ed the graduates have developed love
for the farm and farm life. Almost
without exception they have expressed
a desire and determination to earn
buy, or hew out farm in this or some
other state where conditions are
similar. That this determination is not
the mere expression of boyish wish is
evidenced by the fact that upon every
agricultural board or organization in
this state and in every important agri-
cultural movement carried on in Wis
consin, the Short Course is we'll repre-
scented by graduates, now prominent,
respected and prosperous in their
chosen lines of farming.
OF the two thousands graduates from
this course since it's inception in 1885,
the following are from Iowa county:

CURE FOR COLD BED.

O. F. B. writes: I've tried sleeping
with windows wide open and have been
cold in spite of heavy weight of cover
ings.
Answer; Your bed is undoubtedly
wrongly made. Warmth depends more
on what's below than on top of sleeper.
An extra mattress, preferably felt
canvas, oilcloth, thick paper or wooden
blanket as a mattress cover will permit
removing some OF coverings. A cheap,
light and warm blanket to be used un-
der or over sleeper can be made by
