ROTARY CLUB.

The Rotary Club gave dinner a.
the Wausau Club Friday noon in
honor of Gov. Phillip, who is a
Rotarian. There were nearly 1OC
members present. During the dinner
hour an orchestra furnished music
and old songs were sung. After al
were seated six new member:
were introduced, each arising as
his name was called. At the
close Gov. Phillip was introduced
| by President A. H. Zimmerman anC
| the governor gave an interesting talk
of nearly an hour, touching upon
many things of general interest to
our people, telling what should be
done to make it possible to have a
business administration in matters
pertaining to the state, and how he
had succeeded in bringing about re-
forms in certain departments, and
how he had been accused of commun-
| ing with the trusts because he in
their products at price that will, at
least, equal the cost. He emphatical-
ly denied the accusation and said he
didn't care a continental for trusts
anyway. He closed his remarks by
saying that in these trying times
when there was war and discomfort
in most of the civilizad world, it was
the duty of every American cit
iZen to uphold the hands of our
president. The governor is a very
able and forceful speaker and through
out he eScheWed politics and advO-
Gated the laying of plans by the
people of Wisconsin to bring about a
thorough and complete business ad-
ministration of state affairs: to lop
off useless commissions, useless
barnacles and to bring down the
state expenses within reason. The
governor was given an ovation at the
close and was presented by President
Zimmerman with relic of bygone
days. When our governor was a boy at
Sauk City, he used to delight aud
fences with songs, etc, and on one
occasion he had taken part in a Minis
trel show and the gift presented was
an article which he had forgotten to
take on the stage with him, it proved
to be an old cotton umbrella in which
there we're more holes than in a
pepper box and much larger 1t elic-
tied much laughter as its old ribs
were spread out. 1t brought back
old memories. The governor is not
only one of the most genial of men
but has the knack of getting next to
large body of men in a very short
time.
President Zimmerman, on behalf of
the club, extended thanks and appre-
citation to the governor for his pleas
ant visit, and after arising and sing
ing America the club adjourned. 1t
will be counted on as one of the very
pleasant memorable events in the his
tory of the club.

FALLS THROUGH ICE

Andrew Johnson, mason by trade
of Tomahawk, died from exposure to
the ice coldwater Thursday afternoon.
The gentleman had returned from
camp and decided to take a shorter
course and started over the Wisconsin
river, which he thought was perfectly
safe. He had reached about 12O feet
from shores of Bradley park, when the
ice gave way and he was plunged in

PASTMASTERS' NIGHT.

Last Wednesday, Dec. 1st, 1915, was
the occasion of Past Masters night of
Forest Lodge No. 13O, f. & A. M. and
there were over 200 Masons present,
some coming from Merrill, Amigo,
Marshfeld and Neillsville. J. D.
Stockwell, Grand Lecturer of the Grand

The singing of the evening, by
Messrs. Gearhart and Riebe, was ex-
ceptionally fine and they were re-
called several times and as a finale,
gave together a song which made all
glad that they had come out for the
event. They were accompanied on
the piano by Miss Wanda Hopp. The
talks were all of high order, Mr.
Mathie closing his with an original
poem on "Co-operation, which con-
vinced those present, that after
all, much more can be accomplished
by pulling together. Col. Watrous
gave the principal address of the
evening J. d. Stockwell also gave a
pleasing talk. The surprise of the
evening was the singing of the Hi

the night previous and came to Wau-
sau to take later train out and were
induced to come up and take part in
the program. Their singing was ex-

OUR GOLF LINKS.

James Melvin has been exceedingly
busy at the golf grounds since the
close of the season and the improve

will be some twelve strokes harder
for the average player than formerly.
There have been added three extra
bunkerS on the first hole; two on the
second; two on the third, and, four on
the fourth; two on the ninth and a

WALLA WALLA TO
Be HEADQUARTERS
Offices of Superintendent of O.
w. r. & N. to be Moved
from North Yakima

According to word received
here yesterday and confirmed at
the company's Offices in this city
the headquarters of the third
division of the O-W. r. & N. COM
pany will be established in Wal
la Walla, with Supt. A. G. Kamm
in charge of North Yaki-
ma, says the Walla Walla Union.
Over a score of railroad men
and their families will move to
this city, adding a payroll to
Walla Walla of probably $1,000
per month. The eventual NOV
ing of the railroad shops and all
equipment necessary to the
maintenance of a division head
quarters is also predicted.
The third division will include
all lines west of Riparia except
the portion of the Snake river
line from Snake river bridge to
Aver junction. This means that
all lines between Riparia and
Pendleton, Grange City Junction
and Umatilla, and the branch
line from Alfalfa to North Yak
ina will comprise the third div
isiOn.
Inaddition to Supt. Kamm and
his staff of clerks, the Office Of j.
Beck, chief dispatcher of the div
ision will also be moved here.
It is believed that machine shops
terminal yards, a big round
house and other buildings neces-
sary will be built here soon. An
appropriation has already been
made for building a ten-stall
roundhouse here.
Supt. Kamm and Chief Dis
patcher Beck will be provided
with temporary quarters here in
the company's depot but a head
quarters Office building will
probably be built soon.

to follow in the pruning of trees
in order to encourage fruitful
ness and still maintain the pro-
per shape and strength in the
tree is as follows. Make the
pruning process of thinning
out of excessive wood remember
ing all the time that a little too
much wood will be much better
than too little wood. Excess
wood may be taken out the next
season while a 8 t m u l a e d
growth caused by too little wood
may result in the development
of wood growing rather than a
fruit producing habit in the tree.
In cutting out excess wood the
following points should be close
ly observed. Do not leave two
laterals on the same branch di-
rectly above each other, leave APP
proximately the same number of
fruiting laterals on each main
branch, keep the center of the
tree fairly well thinned out to
facilitate spraying and the color
ing of the fruit, keep your bear
ing wood well down on the main
branches, leave all fruit buds
possible on the young tree. IF
possible remove all water spouts
in June. Do but very little
heading back of young bearing
trees and last remember that |
proper care of the young tree
and not heavy pruning is what
the tree demands.

or seed the plant undergoes q
great change in its physiological
processes, fruit spurs containing
much plant food are formed, the
starch is stored in large quaint
ties in the buds. (This may be
easily seen in the enlargement
of twigs at the base of fruit
buds on such varieties as the
Gano Ben Davis and Rome Beau
ty). These changes naturally
draw heavily upon the food sup
ply of the plant. In nature it is
the tendency of plants to cease
the former development of large
amounts of wood growth and
concentrate it's efforts in the
growth of fruit. Heavy pruning
is the greatest known stimulus
for the production of large
amounts of wood and it naturally
would follow that if fruitfulness
is to be encouraged wood growth
should be discouraged.

PRUNE CAREFULLY
WHEN TREES BEAR
Apples That Have Just Reached
Bearing Stage Must Be
Watched Closely
(By VIM. Meikle)

10y WILL NAOAnAO/
One of the most perplexiEg
features in the pruning of apple
trees is that of pruning the tree
just as it is coming into bearing.
One reason for this is that UNI
less one is well acquainted with
the variety he may have but lit
tie idea as to what changes will
take place in the manner OF
growth of the tree after it be-
gins to bear. There are but few
of our best commercial varieties
of apple that do not show mark
ed changes in the habits OF
growth of the tree after it be-
gins to bear. Take as an illus
tration the Rome Beauty. This
tree is naturally a very strong
upright grower before it begins
to bear, while after it begins to
bear the growth on the main
branches and fruiting wood is
very small although waterspouts
on the same tree will still have
the strong growing tendencies.
The tree will show a tendency to
spread and the fruiting branches
will thicken up to give greater
strength. Take as an illustra-
ton of the reverse type the
Spitzenberg. This tree main
tains it's slender upright grow
ing tendencies for many years
after it begins to bear. The fore
going statements are given to
show the advantage it would be
to one if he could see his future
tree that he might know what
to expect Of each variety of tree.
True this is not possible, but on
the other hand why not visit a
neighboring orchard and study
the growth characteristics of
different varieties. This be-
lieve to be one of the most es-
sential steps in pruning.
Now, after you know what to
expect of each variety the thing
you should do is to get a mental
picture Of your ideal tree of each
variety and start out with a de-
termination to produce that ideal
tree and above all things do not
change your ideal each year or
the tree will certainly be a VIC
tim of much slaughtering.
According to all established
rules for pruning trees up till
the time when they come into
bearing the process is simply
one of cut out all the wood nee
essary to give q good shape to
your tree, cut out some more
wood to stimulate growth and
then if the tree is still too thick
cut out some more branches to
remedy this trouble. You con-
tinue this process until the trees
begin to bear then you stop and
say 'What am I to do next ?"
You are about right in all this
and the thing to do next is to
cut out most of the pruning. In
fact more damage may be done
by too severe pruning at this
time than would result from no
pruning at all. :
Whenever any plant takes up
the process Of producing fruit
or seed the plant undergoes q
great change in its physiological
processes, fruit spurs containing
much plant food are formed, the
starch is stored in large quaint
ties in the buds. (This may be
easily seen in the enlargement
