A TRIP TO MONTANA

Some of the Wausau boys have just
returned from trip out through the
western states. They went as far
west as the Judith Basin, Montana,
where they spent few days looking
over thousands of acres of wheat
fields. They all speak well of that
country; they found splendid spring
water throughout the basin, and also
noticed the electric lighting system
which furnishes light for all the little
towns throughout the basin, and
large flour mill run by electricity; the
current comes in from Great Falls, a
distance of thirty miles. There are
two lines of railroad through the
basin, the Milwaukee road and the
Great Northern, which affords good
transportation, and there are good
turnpike roads through the country,
and when you go out with the W. II.
Brown Co. you do not need to walk
while looking over land. They have

about the country.
While there they visited many nice
stock and grain farms, one that par
ticularly impressed them was the
Sexmith farm. This farm consists of
about 3, 700 acres. Mr.. Sexmith has
some splendid horses and al kinds of
stock, and on this farm they saw 100
acres of alfalfa and about 800 acres
of winter. wheat. They also visited
the Jos. Wagner farm, which is a
splendid one. He moved out this
spring and we found him busy getting
things into shape, for Joe expects big
crop of wheat. Some Of the boys
bought land and others intend to buy
before long. On their way back they
stopped at Minneapolis and spent
pleasant day visiting relatives,
parks, etc. A SUBSCRIBER.

YOUR HAIR NEEDS
PARISIAN SAGE

If your hair is full of dandruff, thin,
streaky, dull and never will do up to
look pretty, you can almost i'm

helpful and invigorating hair and
scalp tonics known.
Partisan Sage not only saves your
hair but furnishes the nourishment
needed to make it grow long, abundant
and radiant with life. just one appii-
cation removes every trace of dandruff
and stops scalp itch-your hair be-
comes soft and fluffy with an incom-
parable gloss, beauty and charm.
You cannot be disappointed with
this harmless and delicately perfumed
tonic, and it costs but a trifie at w.

resolution for the proposed constitu-
tional amendment which has been
presented. The senate passed some
of the constitutional amendment
resolutions, but it is doubtful if even
the senate resolutions will get by the
assembly.
/ The most important resolution
which the assembly so far has re-
jected was the measure adopted two
years ag by both houses of the legis-
ture which proposed an entering
wedge toward the single tax in Wis
consin, and which, if it had become
part of the constitution would have
permitted counties by referendum
vote to enact resolutions for the ex-
emption of improvements from taxa
tion. The senate has not rejected
the duplicate measure on this sub
ject, but will probably do SO, although
its action on it would not be of great
Importance, anyway, as the assembly
is so irrevocably opposed to the reso-
luton that even should another reso-
luton come before it on the same
subject with the Endorsement of the
senate it would most certainly be re-
jected.
The general opposition of the legis-
lature to constitutional amendments
was well-demonstrated the other
morning in the senate when the con-
servation resolution, which has al
ready passed former legislature and
was up before the legislature for a
second Endorsement, was sidetracked
and sent back to a committee after
there had been call of the house on
the measure. This amendment reso-
luton, if Incorporated in the consti-
tuition would give the legislature far
greater power than it has at the pres
ent time with relation to the passage
of resolutions on the waterpower
question, and is an amendment to the
constitution which has been strongly
advocated by present United States
Senator Paul o. Husting and other
advocates OF stronger state control of
the waterpowers.
The legislature will also reject the
proposed constitutional amendments
placing limitations on the power of
the supreme court to declare laws
unconstitutional. One of these
amendments provided that no law
passed by the legislature should be
declared unconstitutional by the
supreme court except by unanimous
vote of the court.
The same opposition to changes in
the constitution by constitutional
amendment resolutions is being
shown against the resolutions which
call for a constitutional convention
to rewrite the constitution of the
state.

THE LEGISLATURE.

The Henden bill forbidding treating
in saloons was passed in the Assem-
bly, on Tuesday, the standing Al to 20.
The bill now goes to The senate. 1t
forbids any saloonkeeper to sell to
any one person any spirituous or malt
liquor TO be consumed by any other
person than the one paying therefor.
Exception is made by providing that
the act shall not prohibit the sale of
such liquors to be consumed by men,
bers of the immediate family of the
person purchasing such drinks.
Senator Albers' bill providing for
two more normal schools in Northern
Wisconsin and an appropriation of
$4,000 annually for four years to
carry out the plan. The bill came
In for hearing before the senate COM
mittee on education and public well
fare.
The Bray County Board of Educa-
tion bill was given hearing before
the senate committee on Education
and public welfare on Tuesday. 1t
seeks to have members of County
Board of Education appointed instead
of elected.
If the senate assembly give the in
dorsement of passage TO bill which

Tuesday afternoon by the senate COM
miLtee on corporations, cities owning
municipal lighting plants will have
the right to sell electric power to in
dividuals for private consumption.
The cities already had the right to
sell electric current for lighting pur-
poses, and this bill adds to their
powers so that they can dispose of
the power also for the operation of
machinery in factories and other
purposes. it is claimed that if they
do commercial business they should
be under the control of the commits
sion as much as should private enter
prises. The bill to remove the public
utilities which are municipality owned
by cities of the fourth class from the
control of the railroad commission is
now pending before the senate, and
will be bitterly fought in that house
as measure which is greatly against
the public interest, especially if the
municipal plants are to be allowed to
serve the public in the sale of light
and power.
The entire tenor of this legislature
is against constitutional amendm ent
resolutions, and it is doubtful if any
questions are to be submitted to the
people for a referendum vote because
of changes in the constitution favored
by this legislature. The assembly
has already expressed itself upon the
constitutional amendment question,
and in every case has rejected the

THE MARKETS
4 X X X X X X X 4 X X x X X ,

The market for mill feed is showing
strength this morning though the only
change in the local markets so far is a
raise of 81 per ton on shorts which
now sell for 5000 ton. The rise in
mill feeds is due to the number of
flour mills now closing down for the
summer and earlier than usual this year
on account of lack of transportation
facilities across the ocean. The de-
mnd for flour is even greater than
usual at this time but the risk involved
in ocean transportation has lessened
the number of boats available for this
purpose. 1t is estimated that wheat
which is now quoted at $l.O5 here
would be 30 to 80 cents higher per
bushel if it was certain that large
quantities could be moved.
A shortage Of eggs brought the local
market up two cents today and the
markets are now paying Is cents cash
and 20 cents is being offered in trade.
Hens today show a rise of ! q cents
per pound and they are now quoted at
ll4 cents and scarce at that price.
