STATE HAS LARGE
POTATO OUTPUT.
NEARLY 25,ooo0, 900 BUSHELS ARE
ANNUALLY MARKETED IN
WISCONSIN.
FARMERS STORE AT HOME
Warehouses in State Accommodate
Only One-third of Yearly Crop
Machinery Is Gradually
Being Installed.

Madison-That Wisconsin is annu-
ally marketing in the neighborhood OF
25,000,000 bushels of potatoes, or 20
per cent of the entire output entering
Interstate trade, is the information
given out in bulletin issued by the
university college of agriculture. While
this output is sent to nearly every
state in the union, the majority part OF
it is consumed in the middle west and
Mississippi valley.
. Another point brought out by the
bulletin is that the warehouses in the
state have capacity to accommodate
but one third of the yearly crops.
Most of the storing is done by farmers
themselves, it being more economical
for the farmers to store at home and
haul to the shipping point at their con-
venience.
Chicago is the greatest potato mar
ket, according to the bulletins, and in
sists upon the potatoes being shipped
in bulk SO that they can be graded
there before sacking for the city trade.
Machinery is gradually being intro
duced for the grading and handling
of potatoes which greatly aids in the
work of taking care of the crop.

FRENCH REPORT SUCCESSES
IN CHAMPAGNE DISTRICT
Allies Gain Ground and Capture Hill
No. 191--Berlin Admits Po-
sition Lost.

London, Oct. 2.-Continuing the ter
rife offensive which has netted the
allies almost daily gains for the past
week and has resulted in the greatest
loss of life and prisoners of any SINH
lar period in the entire war. the
French troops in Champagne district
on Thursday again broke through the
and at Hill No. 191, capturing the lat
ter strategic position and rendering
almost the entire German railroad
from Cernay to Somme-Py useless.
Berlin officially admits the loss of
Hill 191 and the penetration of the
German lines southeast of Souchez.
The greatest French gains continue
in the Champagne region north of
Mesnil and farther to the east be-
tween Hill 100, north of Massiges, and
the road from Ville-sur-T ourbes to
Cernay, followed by bayonet charges.
More prisoners were takenrin this &C.
ton, according to Paris.
The French statement admits the
success of German counter-attacks at
L'Ouvrage de la DEBATE, but declares
a second attack was repulsed with
heavy losses to the Germans.
The recount of booty taken in this
fighting since September Is puts the
total of field pieces and heavy guns
captured from the Germans at 121.
Eastward of Loos, which lies north
OF Lens, the British have pushed on a
considerable distance on La Bassee
road and now occupy the entire oval
plateau of which Hill No. 70 is the cul.
minating point The British thus domi-
nate both the city Of Lens and the
plains surrounding it.

DENIES GRIPPING U. s. TRADE.
Great Britain Shows American Gains
Are Enormous.

Great Britain Shows American Gains
Are Enormous.
Washington, Oct. 4.-Great Britain's
answer to reports widely circulated in
this country that she has been inter.
fering with legitimate trade of the
United States with neutral European
nations for the benefit of her own ex-
porters is given in note handed to
Ambassador Page in London by Sir
Edward Grey, the foreign minister
and made public here by the state de-
partment.
Data and figures are quoted at
length to prove that where British
exports and re-exports have increased
the growth of similar trade from the
United States has been many times as
large, while in many cases there have
been vast increases of American ex-
ports, compared with decreases in
those from the United Kingdom.
The note, which is in response to the
British ambassadors report of refer.
ence at the state department to the
unfavorable impression created here
with northern European countries
since the war began, suggests also that
statements concerning Great Britain s
policy have been inspired by German
agents.
August Is is the date of the note.

HEMP PROVES ITS WORTH
Experiments Tend to Show Growers
Can Realize $40 to SIS Per

| Madison.-That hemp can be grown

sioner of agriculture, who has just
concluded the sale of $4,000 worth of

consin Hemp Growers association, of
which G. c. Greenfield of Waupun is
secretary.
In 1909 the agronomy department of
the University of Wisconsin, with
which Prof. Norgord was connected,
conceived the notion that hemp grow
ing in Wisconsin might be made prof
liable and Prof. r. A. Moore assigned
Prof. Norgord to the investigation.
The Hemp Growers association was
formed with one center of experiment.

Brandon and Beaver Dam, and another
in the vicinity of Burlington and U1-
ion Grove. AT these centers success
full crops have been grown ever since.
Prof. Norgord last year sold the 1913
crop for $4,000. The present $4,000
sale is of the crop of 1914 Mr.. Nor
cord says that the crop of 1915, now
being harvested, is a record breaker,
and the sale of the last years crop
Las demonstrated the value of the
product.
Hemp, as it is produced in Wiscon-
sin, is used for the manufacture of
cordage, sails, wrapping, Irvine, car
pets and coarse threads for certain
purposes. The area devoted to hemp
this year is about 400 acres.

.ULT|MATUM SENT
BULGARS BY RUSS
Must Break With Germany With
in TWenty-Four Hours.
MINISTER TOLD TO LEAVE
Ordered to Gust All German Officers
Gar Can't Sanction Preparations
for Fratricidal Aggression
Against Serbia.

London, Oct. 5.-According to the
Times, the Russian minister at Sofia
has delivered formal ultimatum to
Bulgaria demanding the expulsion of
all German officers in Bulgaria within
twenty-four hours.
The text of the ultimatum follows:
The events which are taking place
in Bulgaria at this moment give evi
dence of a definite decision of King
Ferdinand's government to place the
fate of his country in the hands of
Germany.
1.-THE presence of German and Aus
trian officers at the war ministry and
on the staff of the army, the concen-
tration of troops on the Serbian bor-
der and the extensive financial sup
port accepted from our enemies by the
Sofia cabinet no longer leave any
doubt as to the object of the military
preparations of Bulgaria.
The powers of the entente who
have at heart the realization of the
aspirations of the Bulgarian people
have, on many occasions, warned M.
RadoslavOff that any hostile act against
Serbia would be considered as direct
ed against themselves. The assur-
ances given by the head of the Bull
garian cabinet in reply to these warn
ings are contradicted by the facts.
1.-THE representative of Russia,
which is bound to Bulgaria by the i'm
perishable memory of her liberation
from the Turkish yoke, cannot sane
ton by his presence preparations for
fratricidal aggression against Slav
and allied people. The Russian min
lister therefore has received orders to
leave Bulgaria with all the stats of
the legation and consulates If the Bull
garian government does not, within
twenty-four hours, openly break with
the enemies of the Slav cause and Of
Russia and does not at once proceed
to send away officers belonging to the
armies of states which are at war
with the powers of the entente"
