ROAD WORK BY PRISON LABOR
Board of Supervisors Determine to
Try the Experiment

Familiar with the fact that it is al
most impossible to secure proper help
to carry on the extensive road building
that is done in Vernon county each
year, the supervisors have determined
to make trial of convict labor for at
least a portion of next seasons inn
provement. To that end a resolution
was offered by Supervisor Eastman,
and it was unanimously adopted, ae-
cepting the proffer of state authorities
to permit counties to employ prisoners
from Waupun on certain restrictions.
So it is probable we shall have a trial
of it in the spring. We believe our
board was the first county board to ac-
cept the proffer at this annual session.

TAKE A RIAL JOY RIDE

Just take a ride in a Studebak-
err Six or Four. and you will see
that they are tie cars for the
hills and rough roads
A year ago Studebakers manu-
featured 200 cars per day; this
year they manufacture 344 cars
per day. A year ago, during the
summer months, they could not
supply the demand. During the
summer months and up to this
time they have not been able to
supply cars enough by one fourth
of the demand. At the present
time, the agents throughout the
country are clamoring for Stude-
baker cars to deliver on orders
taken months ago. The reason
for this comes largely through
the fact that Studebaker this
year is making the most power
full four-cylinder car built to day,
and the six is perhaps as power
full as any six cylinder built to-
day. The Studebakers this year
guarantee their cars for one year,
which is new to manufacturers
of automobiles.
Senator Bennett, DIR. William
Trowbridge, and Ole Tuhus are
owners and driving Studebaker
skies in this city.
