though absolutely new at the game he
shows much promise. Watch him.
There is one more essential feature
necessary for foot ball in Mineral Point
and that is school spirit. The girls are
showing themselves enthusiastic fol-
lowers and rooters for the team but
their opportunity to help is only linn
tied one. They can encourage the boys
by their roofing and presence at the
games but they cannot help TO build up
the team. There must be twenty-five
more fellows in Mineral Point high"
who might make the team. Now these
fellows should get out and help. If
they have not the ambition to make
the regular team they ought to for the
love and honor of their school and the
pride of their city assist the coach in
the development of the material which
he has on hand. The boys of the team
are enduring the kicks and bumps and
bruises for the honor of their school
and town. They get no pay, but they
surely should get their full measure Of
assistance and appreciation.

AS the country grows and the prices

AS the country grows and the prices
of necessities advance, our firmly esta-
blished securities increase in value, 81
lently, steadily. The investor can rest
assured that the farm yields that which
humanity needs most. Just as the
American Nation must look for new
markets, so the careful American In
weston turns to the security which pre-
eminently combines safety and attrac-
tive rate of interest. Here our farm
mortgages meet every requirement.

mo other message ever sent to Wis
consin legislature contained the word
repeal in so many paragraphs
Gov Philip repudiated the far
famed Wisconsin idea. He said that
in the past ten years Wisconsin had
ed progressive legislation.
Business men declare that we have
been fighting business" declared Gov.
Philip. "The results of the last cleo
ton clearly indicate that the people
have reversed their policy in this re-
spect, and they now demand a gov
eminent that will encourage rather
than hamper the development of in
dustry."
The people are over-burdened with
taxes, declared Gov. Philip. He said
that the expenses of state government
bad increased from $6,046,565 in 1903
TO $15,138, 651 in 1914. This enormous
sncrease, he said, has been occasioned
by an expanse in the functions of gov
eminent and by lack of business sys-
tenn in organizing these activities. He
said that 1--WE should not allow our
zeal to lead us into costly fads, nor
should we forget that waste OF the
peoples substance is not helpful to the
cause of human progress"
The text of some important subjects
discussed and recommendations made
In Gov. Philips message reads as fol
lows:
In the year 1900 the cost of the state
government reached the sum of $4,-
100000. In the political campaign that
was carried on in that year this
amount was claimed to be excessive,
and much criticism was INDUCED in by
the press and from the stump of what
was termed an extravagant use Of the
public funds. Economies that would
bring about a substantial reduction in
expenditures were promised. How
ever, instead Of reduction there has
been a steady increase until at the
close of the fiscal year 1914 the
states expenditures had reached the
sum of $15,13S,051.99.
The following table of total expendi-
lures for the period in question shows
