TO FOOD SHOW TONIGHT

to Be Admitted Free-Rotary
Club Luncheon Guest.

Men who weigh 200 pounds or more
but not necessarily fiat" men, are to
be admitted free of charge at the food
show at Convention Hall tonight, ac-
cording to an announcement made to-
day by Manager Perry P. Patrick. 1t
is believed the number of free admis-
sions as the result of this offer will
exceed those of last night, when women
six feet tall or taller were the guests
of the management.
The six-foot offer brought scores OF
women to the show. Some thought their
high coiffures would be included in the
measurement and were somewhat dis
appointed when informed that the
measurement was to be from sole to
scalp.
The Rotary Club Of Washington has
accepted an invitation to have luncheon
at the food show at 1890 pm. Friday.
The invitation was extended by Man
ager Patrick after consultation with
the exhibitors at the show, and the
Rotarians are promised meal that they
will remember for long time to come.
Tables will be spread for hundred
odd members of the club In the south
end of the hall. The luncheon will last
one hour. and the doors will be thrown
open to the public at 1870 o'clock as
usual.
Couple to Wed at Show.
At least one couple intends to take
advantage of the offer of the manage.

ment of the food show to stock the
pantry of any couple who will consent
to be married at the show. Yesterday
Eric Edmonston obtained a license to
marry Miss Elsie Ellen Ashby. The
marriage is to be performed by Rev.
John r. Esaias. on a platform to be
erected in the midst of the exhibits at
the show. The date of the wedding has
not yet been announced.
The bridegroom-to-be is a street car
conductor. He gave his age as twenty
two and that of the bride as sixteen
years. Because of her youth 1t was
necessary to obtain the written consent
of her father before the marriage
license would be issued to them.
What can be done with Indian corn is
shown by an exhibit at the show.
Twenty years ago practically the only
use for corn was as straight food, and
for meal and starch. Now, corn yields
no less than forty products. some of
which are or can be used to advan-
tage in nearly every manufac cturing
business as well as in the household
One of the articles, for instance, is a
substitute for rubber.

BUILD FISH HATCHERY
Supt. Nevin Chose Site West
of Creamery for Building
Work to begin Soon.

Eagle River will have a fish
hatchery this spring if present
plans materialize. James Nevin,
superintendent of fisheries, was
in town last Wednesday and de-
cided upon a site on the Eagle
river Immediately west of the
creamery. providing the town
will grant lease covering the
period the hatchery will remain.
There is no doubt as to the town
boards action in this matter
and It's safe to assert that build
ing operations will soon bestart-
ed in order to be in readiness for
the spring Matching.
A building about the size OF
the creamery and several sheds
will be erected on the river bank.
At the waters edge an 8O-foot
dock will be laid giving ample
| facilities for the boats used in the
spa wn-gathering operations.
Work on the building will be
started soon so as to have it in
readiness by the middle of April.
From that time on for the next
two months the hatchery will
give employment to probably ht-
teen men.
1t was generally thought that
site would be chosen near the
Otter rapids on the Wisconsin
river four miles west OF town,
but upon Supt. Nevin's arrival
that site was Immediately dis
missed owing to the long haul
it would necessltate.
