Contract of w. G. cioush, Veteran
Of 40 Years.

Portage Efforts to GUST Prof. w.
G. Clough, principal Of Portage high
school for the last forty years, has
been stopped by an injunction issued
by County Judge Kellogg. H. G. Hy-
land, a Portage business man, is
plaintiff in the action against the new
city school board. The complaint by
'Hyland recognizes three members OF
the board who heve served previous
terms, but questions the right of
John W. Pate, who is alleged to have
been appointed in place Of James A.
Older, who resigned. The right Of
City Councilman John L. Stauden-
meyer is also questioned.
The new board met on May 4, pur-
porting to annul contract made by
the previous board engaging Prof.
Clough for the ensuing year, but this
action was stopped by the injunc-
tional proceeding.

DEPUTY MAY BE DISCHARGED
Calumet Officials in TangIe Over Fees
Appeals for Decision and
Wins Point.

Madison.-That the relations be-
tween the sheriff and his deputies is a
contractural one and not official; that
the sheriff may prescribe rules and
regulations by which his deputies shall
be governed that under the laws of
Wisconsin there is no recognition of
such official as a deputy sheriff, are
important points revealed in an
opinion by Atty.-Gen. Owen to Dist
Atty James Kirwan of Calumet coun-
ty.
In Calumet county the county judge
turns all commitments in insanity
cases over to the deputy sheriff, and as
the sheriff in that county receives no
salary, depending wholly upon the fees
of the Office, the superior officer finds
cause for complaint.
The point of the attorney generals
opinion is that If the sheriff's relations
with his official family are not congeni-
al he is at liberty to fire his deputies
and make other arrangements.

TO BUY LAND FOR
STATE FAIR PARK
COUNTY BOARD VOTES TO PUR-
CHASE PART OF FLEMING
TRACT.
ESTIMATE COST IS sa5, 900
Action Ends Long Fight on Question
Before $255, 900 Appro-
Priation Changes
Opinion.

Milwaukee. - Milwaukee county
tract and donate it to the state of
Wisconsin for state fair purposes.
This was decided at a meeting of the
county board when, by vote of 13
to 6, the supervisors went on record
favoring the purchase of a strip of
land east of the State Fair park, 120
feet in width and 1858 feet in
length. 1t is estimated that the land
will cost the county about $4,000.
This ends fight that has been on
in the county board for the last two
years, when some of the members
fought to have the county purchase
the entire Fleming tract. Meeting
after meeting was held by the special
committee appointed to debate the
question, and the matter was finally
postponed indefinitely. 1t was then
believed that the question would
never come up again.
Two years afterward Senator W.
]. Bichler asked the members of the
board why nothing had been done re-
lative to the purchase. In the mean
time the state board of agriculture
had appropriated $255,000 to be
given to Milwaukee county for State
Fair park purposes, if the county
would purchase additional land. The
members of the county board COM
mittee went to Madison, where they
conferred with the members of the
legislature and the state board of ag-
riculture.
Following this conference a reso-
luton was introduced at the next
meeting of the county board to pur-
chase strip of land for the State
Fair park, provided the $255, 1000
would be Immediately available"

PLAN FOR WEAVING THE PIGS
Youngsters Are Allowed to Drain
Sows' Udders, and Next Day They
Are Put in Good Pastures.

Many of our best hog men now
wean their pigs early and wean them
all at the same time. The day be-
fore weaving they put the sows and
pigs together in a pen by themselves
and give the sows little or no feed
that day.
The pigs are allowed to drain the
sows' udders and the next day the
pigs are put in good pasture by
themselves and given nutritious ra-
ton, skim milk being fed it it is avail
able
The sows are put on short pasture
and for the first day or two are given
plenty to drink but little TO eat. In
q short time they are dried up COM
pletely and then may be given good
ration to get them in condition for
breeding or for market.

Over five hundred registered Perch

diana owners, according to the report
of the Percheron Society of America
at its annual meeting. This puts the
state third in number of purchases,
against tenth place last year. The

HYPOCRITES

During the recent county option
campaign in Hennepin County, the fol-
lowing little article appeared in the
columns of the Minneapolis Journal,
written by a reader: Zone thing to be
said in favor of the saloonkeeper as a
man is that he is no hypocrite. He does
not pretend to be better than he is. In
common with other people, he has his
likes and dislikes, but there is one class
of persons for whom he has no respect
whatever, and that is "pious hypo-
critics men who on Sunday make a
pretence of religion, and on Monday fill
their pockets with unclean money. He
knows exactly who share in the profits
of his business directly or indirectly
and considers himself just as good il
not better, than his silent partners
and he is right.
