JUST FISH STORIES
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Mr.. and Mrs. A. Mckenzie
were guests at Thurston's Lodge
on Dam lake last week. 1t was
on that trip that Mac, veteran
angler of these parts, had to re-
lease his title of champion to one
more worthy oft. The choicest
fish Mac could bring to gaf was
a 1O12-lb. pickerel-a nice fish, to
be sure-but the lucky Mac saw
his fame waning when his wife
hooked and successfully landed a
Glib. pink-eye bass. The fish was
a beauty and one of the best
catches made this season.

oAT CROP is A WINNER
Town of Conover Farmers
Produce Real Oats Some
Vindication of Villas Coun-
tvs "Sandy Soil"

30 much has been said of the
fertility and productiveness OIL
Was county soil that it seems
almost superfuous to stick an.
other feather in our cap for &C
complishments of Villas county's
sand" Still this has been an
OFT year generally throughout
the country and when Villas
county comes to the front with
such a crop as Conover farmers
have produced it is worthy OF
mention.
Mike Lillund, who owns land
IN section 12-41-1O has WELD OF
oats which take all honors this
season. On 11s acres of land
(actual measurement he thresh-
ed $50 bushels of oats. At this
rate his oats yielded 112 bushels
per acre.
Theodore Christianson, anoth-
er town of Conover farmer, har-
vested 504 bushels of oats from
live acres, which is almost as
good as Lillund's crop.
This yield in a year of excessive
rainfall and cold weather when
other sections were flooded and
produced crop failures, speaks
we'll for Villas county.

FREE LIGHT COMPLAINT
Residents of Minocqua, Who
Object to City Owned IT'LL
ity Supplying Current Graf
is, File Objections.

| Mlnocqua's municipal electric
light plant has developed a novel
addition to the list of vagaries
ana abuses practised when such
utilities are under political man
agenent.
1t is charged, in a formal COM
plant to the Wisconsin railroad
commission, that the Minocqua
light plant has bridged the gap
between church and state by
supplying churches and parson-
ages with light current free of
cost. Free, that is, to the par
sonages and churches. Taxpay-
ers foot the bills, whether mem
bers of the congregation or not.
Among the other items in the
complaint filed by the taxpayers
praying for relief from the rail
road commission, are these:
"Flat rates are allowed to fav-
ored customers contrary to the
schedule.
"Meters are installed in some
buildings using cnrrent; other
meters out of order; meters read
by an unbonded employee of the
town who also makes collections
and keeps no books of accounts.
money collected is paid to the
town chairman, who refuses to
turn it over to the town treasur-
er.
Accounts against consumers
not collected regularly; many are
months in arrears.
1.-The town of Minocqua, which
owns the plant, is paid nothing
for current used by street lamps
and schools in the village of
Minocqua.
mo system of accounting is in
use and frequent transfers of
funds are made to the electric
light fund from other town
funds, so that nobody knows
what the light plant has actually
cost nor whether it is or is not
earning it's own way"

CROPS TO PROVIDE
ACCIE REVENUES

Russellville, May 1T. A. Green,
horticulturalist at the second district
agricultural school, is striving to
make the orchard, farm and gardens
at the school make up in part for
the appropriation of $4,000 We
toed by Governor Hays. The school
has surplus of sweet potatoes after
supplying the table needs, and has
recently shipped potatoes to Paris,
Jonesboro and Atkins. The truck
patches are in high state of Guilt
walton and the tables are now sup
piled with an abundance of early
vegetables.
The old Elberta orchard, which
was on the farm when the school
was located, has been trimmed and
is in good condition, and the young
orchard of peaches, apples, prunes
and other fruits promise abundant
yields. All the orchards have been
sprayed.
Strawberries will be ripe in about
three weeks, and the school has six
varieties of pedigreed plants. A
model canning plant installed last
year will be kored to capacity from
the early strawberry season until
corn and sweet potatoes are ready in
late fall.
Pupils have been furnished en-
ployment in putting out shade trees,
hedges, sodding with bermuda, and
tile drainage. The school will OPP
crate for the full term the next
school year, but with greatly re-
duced faculty, due to the veto of
the appropriation for payment of
teachers salaries.

MOOSE JUGGLES
STATES MONEY
Investigating Committee Declares
Attorney General Is Violating
Spirit of Arkansas Law.

Little Rock, May Members of
the committee appointed by the leg
islature to audit the state depart
ments issued statement yesterday
in which they charged that Attorney
General Moose had violated the
spirit of the law which makes it a
felony for a state official to have
in his possession money belonging
to the state. Mr.. Moose turned into
the state treasury yesterday $4,000,
which he had collected during the
past month as inheritance and fran
chise tax. At the same time he pre-
scented April salary warrants for
himself and several state officials
to take up the amount. Owing to
the depleted state of the general
revenue fund, warrants are being
sold at a discount, except where
they are presented at the time of a
payment into the fund. The COM
mittee claimed that in holding the
taxes for period of time extending
over the month he was violating the
spirit of the law, although the mon
ey was in checks and drafts payable
to the state treasurer.
Mr.. Moose made a statement in
which he said that this practice was
not violation of the law, and that
as long as warrants were below par
he would continue the practice. He
said the legislature sanctioned the
practice when it appropriated $780,
900 for it's expenses out of the Cot
holding for some time when the
legislature convened.
