H. HI. Peavey of this city was one
Of the speakers at the organization
meeting of the school masters OF
Northern Wisconsin held at Ashland
last Friday. Mr.. Peavey took as
hi. subject, THE North Wisconsin
Problem" and in it he hit the mai
squarely on the head. His address
was so good that we publish it in its
entirety.
Northern Wisconsin lies just north
of line, just this side of Eau Claire
and Chippewa Falls on the south and
west, and Oshkosh On the south and
east.
An Invisible line is our boundary be-
tween the north and south in the
United States; the dividing point
where q man from the south ceases
to order fancy concotions, and from
there on farther north, takes his
whiskey straight. And, it is at about
this same point that we fellows 60
ing south realize the handicap of a
stiE collar and creased trousers. So
it is in Wisconsin there is an invisible
line dividing Northern Wisconsin
from the rest ofthe state.
Suppose one of you gentlem en-
wanted, or needed, from Madison,
some law, amendment or something
pertaining to the peculiar needs OF
your Northern Wisconsin school sit
uation. Cary did not have it in
his power to grant it of hand, you
would find yourself in the same posi-
ton of we fellows in all other lines
of industry, here in the north. Your
connection with your state govern
ment and its principle officers is lost
somewhere about where our invisible
boundary line begins which l have al
ready described. l would like to ask
for information right now. How many
of you gentlemen, have ever seen
Supt. Cary himself, north of the Wis
consin Mason & Dixon line? There
seems to be an unholy fear that grips
the heart of all state officers, that il
they should get north of Oshkosh OF
Eau Claire they might get lost in the
woods or the Indians might scalI
them. l have seriously considered
the proposition of getting some one.
or more, of them up here, and once
he crosses the line, abduct him, hold
ing him as hostage until he and the
others were made to learn of us anc
our needs, and requirements, and the
civilized condition of our people, anc
then turn him loose to spread the
tidings.
Think of it. How many of on
present state officers have we eve
seen north of that line? They ask us
by literature, once every two years t
vote for them. And those that ar.
successful express their thank
through the columns of the press
and we hear nothing more of then
for two years. Some of them thinl
and feel, we should be great gam
and fish forest preserve, as that t
their minds is what we are reall
adapted to. Do you wonder unde
the conditions that we are cut o.
and ostracized from our own stat
government?

gated for the treatment Of neutral
ships then and something of the same
character Is expected In the present
situation.
High officials here did not believe.
as some German papers have intimat-
ed, that the German government in
tends deliberately to destroy neutral
vessels In the war zone. Emles OF in
ternational law call for careful search
OF a neutral vessel to determine how
much of its cargo is contraband. and
even then, the ship can be destroyed
only in rare emergencies and on the
assumption that It would have been
condemned as a prize.
While In many quarters Gcrmany's
action was referred to as blockade"
designation of war zone technically
trail vessels under blockade are alb
solutely forbidden from entering the
blockaded areas, but under Germans
proclamation, there is no penalty OF
,bstacla directly placed against pas
,age Of q neutral ship through the
zone. A neutral vessel enters the
dangerous area at It's own risk. how

tassy had rsceiSed no advices sup
piementing the text of the order, 1t
was made plain that the intention OF
the order, as understood here, Is to
prevent entrance of food into Eng
land. The German understanding
seems to be. 1t was explained, that
Great Britain purposes not only to
stop the food cargo on the Wilhel-
NINA, but to seize other cargoes.
While none isof, the neutral embas-
sizes and legations had instruction
from their governments, 1t was sug-
gested by some Diplomats that It was
unlikely any change would be made
In the general policy OF protesting In
specific cases only. The possibility of
a Joint protest by neutfais was dis
cussed informally. but without ofticia!
sanction.
The Netherlands minister tomorrow
will confer with state department of

legation characterized the situation as

sowing the problem OF living. One At
ilantan made $3.50 worth of vegetables
last year on less than one-sixteenth Of
ai acre. Others have been encourag.
ed to try It, and this spring win see
Atlanta full of home gardens.
The farmers or the South, In my
opinion" Mr. Hastings said, ''have
well learned the lesson of the cotton
crisis, and i believe they are going to
keep IL learned. They realize now as
never before that they must make
cotton their servant instead of their
master, and making food crops is the,
only way to do It.
"The first big step toward the soln-
tion% Of this problem is the home gar
den-an all-the-year-round garden
one that is kept busy growing food for
the table every, month in the year. A
garden like this means q saving of
half the living expense OF any family;
1t is worth more as money saver
than any Ave acres OF cotton ever
grown.
"City families pay fancy prices for
vegetables End other food products
which the farmer can have on his to.
BILE without the expenditure of a dol
lar. and this would mean to the farm
ers Of the South an aggregate saving.
Of millions of dollars they are now
paying out annually for food supplies,
that might be turned into bank nc
