Found Not Guilty Of John
Blanks Death.

Sheboygan.-The jury in the case of
William Meyer of Sheboygan Falls,
charged with manslaughter because of
the death of John Blank at Kohler last
April, returned a verdict of not guilty.
Meyer and Blank were employed in
the plant of the Kohler company.
Blank, who had come to this country
only four years ago from Germany,
was greatly interested in the war and
took exception to a remark Meyer had
made to others about the Germans.
When Meyer entered the shop where
Blank was working the latter rushed
at him. Meyer had metal square and
template in his hands. Blank had a
file and chisel, and began striking at
Meyer. In the scuffle Blank was struck
in the head and died two days later.
Meyer gave himself up. No one saw
him strike Blank. He declared he did
not know himself if ne struck a blow,
but said he was trying to prevent
Blank from striking him on the head.

STATE TO INSPECT BOILERS
Special Committee of Experts Has
Aided Industrial Commission
In Working Out Code

Madison. State inspection of sta
t1onary boilers soon will be an actuality
In Wisconsin. Three years ago the
industrial commission made a begin
ming in this important work and before
long it will adopt the entire set of
rules to be known as the Wisconsin
boiler code.
The plan is to utilize existing ma
chinery for inspections. Insurance
company inspectors, for example, will
continue to inspect boilers which are
insured. They will report to the COM
mission and there will be no charge
to the owner other than the customary
premium paid to the insurer In the
city of Milwaukee the city inspector
will continue to make inspections. The
commissions inspectors will inspect
only those boilers outside of Milwau-
kee which are not insured. This is
expected to eliminate the danger of
disastrous explosions.

Parish Reuisters.

The origin of parish registers dates
back to 1888. when Cromwell, Henry
Wis general. issued an injunction
on the clergy to keep a record Of
births, marriages and deaths And
the explanation Of the gaps in ancient
parish registers lies in the fact that
during William ms war with France
they were used to assist in the coIlec-
ton of a tax on births and marriages
which was frustrated by the parish
clerks, for. as one Of them naiyely
notes In his register: No entries
were made for some years to avoid
the tax"

Man annually MARKETED IN
WISCONSIN,.

W." univ one-third of Yearly Crop

Being Installed.

,,s;son That Wisconsin is annu-
-, naorketing in the neighborhood OF
s !. .oo mn bushels of potatoes, or 20
'''', aont of the entire output entering
ps a.rfstate trade, is the information
l .an mt in a bulletin issued by the
sd ,rarsitv college of agriculture. While
w. uI,' ontnut is sent to nearly every
..to in the union, the majority part of
: s'i i consumed in the middle west and
Mississippi valley.
Another point brought out by the
,nllotin is that the warehouses In the
stota have capacity to accommodate
Snt one third of the yearly crops.
Most of the storing is done by farmers
themselves. it being more economical
,or tbe farmers to store at home and
s.uI TO the shipping point at their con-
venience.
Chicago is the greatest potato mar
bot 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
dpced for the grading and handling
of potatoes which greatly aids in the
work of taking care of the crop.

No Penalty Provided
-

Madison Because of the inability
to enforce the law enacted by the 1915
legislature which provides that boys
under Is years of age cannot hunt in
the state, the state conservation COM
mission has appealed to Atty.-Gen.
Owen. The commission contends that
the reason the law cannot be enforced
is because there is no penalty at

would be up to the legislature to rem
edy but suggests that violators of the
law could be sent to the Industrial
Home for Boys.

HEMP PROVES ITS WORTH
Eyueriments Tend to Show Growers
Can Realize $40 to $75 Per
Acre Net Profit.

Madison.-That hemp can be grown
IN Wisconsin as a cash crop, paying
the farmer from $40 to SIS per acre
net profit, has been demonstrated by
Prof c. P. NOrgord, state commits
sioner of agriculture, who has just
concluded the sale of $4,000 worth Of
fibre The sale was made for the Wis
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.
alton in the region around Waupun,
Brandon and Beaver Dam, and another
IN the vicinity of Burlington and I'm
Ion Grove. At these centers success
tul 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
sOfd says that the crop of 1915, now
beng harvested, is a record breaker,
and the sale Of the last years crop
mas demonstrated the value of the
product.
Hemp as it is produced in Wiscon-
EN- is used for the manufacture of
cOldage sails, wrapping, Irvine, car
pets and coarse threads for certain
purposes, The area devoted to hemp
'alS year is about 400 acres.

Britain than from such heirs residing
in this country, according to the rul-
ing of the supreme court handed down
in a decision Saturday. The ruling
was in connection with the case Of w.
c. Brown, state treasurer, against the
estate OF Hosana DAILY, appealed from
Allamakee county.
This was an action to recover in
heritanca tax in excess of per cent
upon the shares Of certain alien
benef1ciaries who resided in Great
Britain. In most countries a tax of
20 per cent is collected. But the
treaty rights with Great Britain are
such that citizens Of that country have
the same rights in matters Of inheri-
lance from estates in this country as
do the heirs in the United States
The question raised by the state was
that in cases where a man dies with
out q will his estate passed under the
estate law and in such cases article
five of the treaty between Great Brit
ain and the United States does not
apply. Article five is the one giving
heirs equal rights in Great Britain
with those in the United States.
