Borden Praises New Law.

In announcing the personnel of ru-
raj supervising teachers, appointed I'M
der law passed at the last session of
the legislature, Assistant Superintend-
ent Borden of the state department Of
public instruction said that he consid,
cred that the new law would unques-
tionably result in great benefits.
I'm Wisconsin, he said, there are
$685. teachers in one-room rural
schools. OF this number 1866 have
never taught before and 80 per cent
of them do not remain in teaching
work for more than two years.
"The result of this has been that
we have been putting new teachers in
every year, and the children have been
getting the benefit of hardly any
teaching experience. Under the new
law creating supervising teachers this
condition is remedied. While we still
have the same percentage of new
teachers, these supervising teachers
are required to supervise their work"

BILE in the future. It is this phase of,
the Wisconsin water-powers which
makes their future of interest to ev-
cry section of the state whose indus
trial betterment may be assisted by
the ''White coal" of the falling
waters.
In a later article of this series an
attempt will be made to show how
the Water-pOwers of Wisconsin con-
tributed to the industrial greatness
of the state even before the develop
ment of the production of electricity.
Under the old conditions the power OF
the streams had to be used in indus
tries located at the power sites. I'm
der the new conditions electrical en-
ergy developed at the power sites
may be transmitted by wire to very
considerable distances and then ap-
piled to industrial uses, thereby CIV
ing the same advantages to indus
ries scattered throughout the gem
eral territory adjacent to the water
courses that they would possess II
located on the rivers themselves.
The development of Wisconsin in
dustry under the earlier conditions
will be next dealt with in this series
of articles.

A Voice for Potatoes.

Most persons in this country have
pitied the men and women on the con-
tinent of Europe who are compelled
to eat bread made, wholly or partly
of potato -four. Yet here come ex-
perts of the home economics depart
ment Of Cornell telling us that pota-
toes and meat may be better food
combination than bread and meat.
These experts declare that there is
good reason for favoring potatoes.
Meat, eggs and cereals, they say, con-
tain mineral elements which give an
excess of acids, while vegetables, fruit
and milk have an excess of bases that
neutralize the acid Meat produces an
excess of acid, and the food that &C.
companies it should, therefore, give an
excess Of alkali Rice, bread, maca-
roni and cornmeal produce acid, and
so do not fill the need But potatoes
are the natural accompaniment Of
meat, because they produce bases,
Most persons according to these
experts, Should make it q point to eat
more potatoes than they are now con,

CURIOUS TRAP FOR SNAKES
Naturalist Tells of Seeing a Biscuit
Can Used by Natives to Cap
ture a Cobra.

A naturalist tells us of an odd
kind of snake trap that caught it's
victim securely. 1t was a biscuit can,
and in the bottom of it were some
macaroOns.
A cobra spied the can, but mouse
was ahead of the cobra. The little
thief was having a good time regal
ing himself on the macaroons, all I'M
conscious that a snake was preparing
to regale itself on mouse. Into the
can went the head of the snake, but
the head that went in was destined to
come out less easily. The rough edges
of the can irritated the cobra, and in
voluntarily it dilated it's hood. That
made it a prisoner. With the hood
dilated the head could not be with
drawn, and the cobra remained in it's
tin prison until morning, when it was
easily captured and killed.
Stradling, who knows the natives
Of India as we'll as he knows the
snakes of that land tells Of. an in
teresting theory held by these peo-
pie. They are firmly convinced that
for every human being a snake bites
it loses one joint. When the number
of deaths the snake has caused equals
the number Of it's joints, the venomous
head alone remains. The snake has
now reached the height of its wicked
desires, and at this point it develops
wings and triumphantly disappears.
An exception to this rule is found
on the other side of the world in

Oil Cans Save Life.

A novel idea was responsible for
the saving of many lives from the
cruiser Hermes after the ship was
torpedoed in Dover straits. A sup
ply of the life-saving pneumatic col
lars ordered by the admiralty had
been expected, but the Hermes had
to put to sea before these were re-
ceived.
When the vessel was torpedoed no
assistance was at hand. She was set
fling down, and a great disaster
threatened, when someone thought Of
petrol tins, of which 400 were on
board. The order was promptly given
to empty the tins and screw down the
shoppers, and on these tins scores of
men who must otherwise have been
drowned kept afoat until help ar
rived.

When you suffer pains and aches
by day and sleep disturbing blad-
der weakness by night, feel tired,
nervous and run down, the kidneys
and bladder should be restored to
healthy, strong and regular action.

Taylor Would Fight;
Meets Real Puq;1;st

| The celebrated Bugs" Taylor, coal
| miner, moundsman, embryo prize fight
! er, and erstwhile Arson pitcher, real
lied his life's ambition a fewNdays ago,
when he entered the squared circle
with a really. truly" pugilist. His ex-
perience, however, had termination
other than that cherished by the pug
nacious one. The gloved encounter.
which was staged in FRANKIE" Whit
ney's training quarters at Cedar Rapids.
was brought about thru the forced idle
ness Of the Bunnies owing to the bad
weather, The members Of the team
were sent to the Whitney gym" to get
morning work out, and the most de-
lighted member of the party, when the
order came, was Bugs" who glimpsed
his long cherished desire to pummel
pug" Of reputation.
Taylor had recently opined to his
pals that he was rather classy with MS
dukes" and when ordered to the
Whitney gym he stipulated that he be
permitted to clash with the Cedar Rap
ids blacksmith. His mates were strong
for this plan and encouraged Taylor
to clean" the Cedar Rapids hope.
Whitney consented to meet the Bunny
bad man and the two went thru the
ropes for a real go.
Six minutes later it was all over.
Whitney cut loose a new one to the
pitcher and Taylor, in a dazed condi-
ton, remarked:
Il never saw that one before; show
it to me again"
There were a few other new ones in
Whitney's repertoire, which surprised
the Illinois coal miner. Manager Ham
ilton was soon convinced that he was
about to lose the services of perfect
ly good pitcher and he entered into an
argument to disabuse Taylor's idea re-
garding his world beating proclivities.
Taylor was ready to announce that
he had procured a great sufficiency and
admitted that, as prize fighter. he
was a misfit. He is now nursing
bruised and battered pair of lips, his
nose has lost it's contour and his left
orb is beautifully and properly closed.

Hamilton is silently congratulating
himself on the fact that the Bunny

at least six men who have participated
in games in higher leagues more than
thirty days. In addition to the four
men acknowledged to be veterans by
Egan, he has Sohn and Wilkus, both of
whom come under the rule, it is said.
AS proof the local association claims
that when Sohn joined the Marshall
town club in 1914 he came directly from
the Quincy. Three-I league club, where
he had been playing almost six weeks.
1t can also be proved that Wilkus was
a member Of the Rockford Ill.,, club an
entire season.
1t was said this morning that the
local management was considering FL
ing a protest against the Muscatine
club, asking President Justice to throw
!. out all games won by Muscatine from
the Ansons, on the ground that the
Muscatine club was carrying more than
; four veterans, in violation of the rule.
1t is claimed here that at least two
other clubs are violating the rule, and
it is not improbable, it is said, that
charges will be filed against every club
where 1T can be shown the rule has
been violated.
