Ladysmith business men have Occa-
sionally, no doubt, been "stung," on
some freak form of advertising, such
as pony contests etc., but one of
the ways in which they have more
frequently been "buncoed'' is in the
purchase, always at fancy figure,
of a lot of punk advertising cuts and
"ready-made" advertisements 1t goes
without saying that advertising that
is not given attention and runs week
in and week out without change is of
little value. Knowing that many
merchants who really believe in the
efficacy of advertising, fail to give
it the proper attention in the matter
of changes, a number of concerns
have sprung up which supply week
ly service of advertisements with
an accompanying cut each week and
this business has developed into a
most lucrative one. Some of the
companies do supply fairly attrac-
tive and effective advertisements, but
three-fourths Of this "stuff" is de-
cidedly punk" some of it so puerile
that one wonders if it isn't written
by some S-year-Old.
The best advertising is that in
which the man gives his message to
the public in simple, easily under
stood language, without oratorical
frills, and just as he would talk if
he was speaking to prospective pa
iron direct, instead of through the
columns of a newspaper. And the
business man who will give his adj
will not have TO question whether it
is a paying investment

The Ladysmith Commercial Club
had the best meeting in it's history
Saturday evening, but instead of
about thirty there should have been
nearer a hundred business men pres
ent. To be successful, an organiza-
ton of this kind should be demo
cratic, not exclusive nor factional,
and when the business men of Lady
smith or any other city unite for the
advancement of their common inter
ests and the promotion of a spirit Of
good fellowship among all they have
accomplished something that means
a great deal for the future of their
town.
We have a live bunch Of business
men in Ladysmith and there should
be at least hundred of them in the
Commercial Club.

very practical and beneficial to the
housewives in attendance.
A most effective talk of Miss Bin
eel was that for the teaching of do
nestle science in the schools, the
speaker going back to the days of
our grandmothers and showing what
were the conditions of their lives.
She then spoke of the women of to-
day with their chances of develop
ment and showed how the teaching
Of domestic science would enable
them to take advantage of their SUI
perior opportunities. In regard to
whether it should be taught in the
school or home, her idea was that
as soon as it was adequately taken
up by the latter, the school would
gladly resign the subject to the
home, where it rightfully belongs. In
connection with her treatment of the
subject, Preparing and Serving a
Meal" one of the most interesting
parts of the demonstration was the
proper setting Of the dining table
She urged that more attention be
paid to this task, on the ground that
meal eaten from a carefully ar
ranged table is more palatable, and
that the meal-table is the natural
place of assembly, where, after the
days work, the family gathers to
renew acquaintance and discuss the
problems of the day.
A pleasing feature of the Thursday
evening session, which brought out
a large attendance, by the way, was
the music rendered by the teachers
and students at the training school
And the work of the janitor, Mr. Mil.
Ter, in the heating of the building
which was particularly important, in
the matter Of the corn-germination
was such as to receive the public
thanks Of Mr.. Scribner.
1t is the desire of the training
school management to make the
school serve the people in the largest
and most effective manner possible
To this end, it secured for the far
mers of the county the school just
closed. If the farmers of the county
desire such a school again, next year
they will do we'll to make their wish
es known to the training school
board, or to the principal

able to furnish in dairy lines. He
also is willing to advise and assist
dairymen and farmers in selecting
good stock for their farms.
The remainder of the program Of
the Home Economics department of
the school-that part which was not
reported in our last issue-cOmprised
lectures by Miss Margaret Thomas,
an expert professional nurse, who re-
ceived her education, in part, at the
John Hopkins University, and repre-
sentatives from the state university,
DR.. w. D. Frost, and Misses Anna
Pfund and Cora E. Binzel
DR.. Frost's lecture, which was upon
public Health" was an intensely in
teresting introduction of his audi
ence to their myriads of unlimited
guests-which perigrinate about in
their systems as officially as though
they "owned the whole house and
which answer, at roll-call, to the
was upon infectious diseases-hoW to
get, and get rid of them-and was
very appropriate, in that it dealt
with the common varieties, such as
typhoid fever-with which perhaps
most people are personally acqualnt-
ed, or which they know by general

trated with slides, which emphasized
his warnings and advice, on the prln-
ciple that things seen are mightier
than things heard
Miss Thomas talks, which those
attending the school were permitted
to hear through the good offices of
the city council and the Women's
Club, were strikingly forceful and in
structive, her points being made
with the apparent weight and clear
ness of a textbook on physiology and
hygiene In demonstrating the care
and feeding Of the infant, what she
said they were accustomed to call
the university Baby" was used-a
life sized celluloid baby doll. In her
talk upon the care and feeding Of
the sick, real, live-though mock
patient was used. The address dWelt
in large part upon the making and
changing of the bed, giving the bath,
ventilation, and how to treat the
convalescent.
Decidedly important, though often
indifferently understood or practiced
arts of domestic economy, are those
treated of by Miss Pfund In consid
ering the Saving of Time, in Max
ing Muslin Underwear" she first
gave tests for determining the quail
ity of muslins, laces and embroider-
les; and described the suitability of
different weaves, in the making of
under-garments A demonstration was
then given, on the machine, of diff
ferent time-saving devices, and meth
DDS, followed by an explanation and
illustration, of the use of different
machine attachments. In connection
with her talk on the Removal of
Stains and Setting of Colors, in Cot
ton Goods the different stains were
actually removed from cloth by Miss
Pfund, to illustrate the efficiency of
the formulas, for-so-doing, which she
had handed out. Different soaps and
washing powders were also dis
cussed, and the washing of flannels,
directions being given for the test
ing of wooden goods. Her work was

much better condition for the crops.
AS soon as one crop is taken out the
soil should be put in condition for the
next plants to go in.
Weeds are largely eliminated by
this practice. A few crops require
whole season to mature in, such as
Long Blood beets, egg plant, water
melons, onions, peppers, winter
squash and tomatoes Other vege-
tables mature quickly, as string
beans, lettuce, turnip beets, summer
squash and turnips.
Radishes can be grown very quick
ly and reseeded in the same rows.
1t is not an easy matter to say just
which varieties will thrive best in
the various localities. 1t would be
like advising when to plant the differ
ent varieties.
One will make no mistake in study
ing the seed catalogues and the agri-
cultural bulletins, for they aim to give
reliable information. 1t is better to
stick to the standard varieties that
have proved adapted to your locality.
Celery, cabbages, cauliflowers, tur-
nips, tomatoes, eggplant and some of
the other vegetables may be trans
planted from May until July. June is
the best time for transplanting celery
and all the cabbage family when the
vegetables are wanted for winter use,

Calais-Paris corrections are exceileht
and find himself forced to speho
some hours in the city, the first tnlns
he remarks is that there seems 70 20
dozen or more women to every man
upon the streets. While, of course
the relative disproportion is nowhere
near so great, still girls and women.
do largely outnumber the men, as
the lace industry is continually draw
ing them from the surrounding coun-
try to its factories. Wages in this IN
dustry are very low and many or us
operations can be performed as Wen
by young girls as by men.
The loiterer next notices lace signs
everywhere, upon commission houses
and factories. Generally, these signs
appear in three languages, French,
German and English. In spring and;
autumn he will meet continual
stream of his countrymen, buyers 1or
the big importing houses.
Factories Are Worth Seeing.
OF his own free will, however the
traveller seldom stays. He is always
willing to leave Calais for most any
where. There are plenty of self-cen-
tered, serious, hustling business
towns at home, and there is no oc-
casion for enduring the monotonous
twentieth century atmosphere when
one is on a pleasure trip. There are,
nevertheless, many things worth see
ing in the fiat, dingy, strictly practical
port city Visits to the great lace fac
tories are we'll worth while, and
usually give one new reverence for
the possibilities of insensible machin-
cry. To see the most intricate pat
quisite lace, possibly of several colors,
with gold and silver threads, and all
this done by massive, complicated
piece of machinery, at one end de-
vouring thousands of thread strands
and, at the other giving forth lace
equal to the highest cunning Of the
human hand is to witness almost the
perfection of mans inventive genius,
And, then, this piece of machinery OPP
crates automatically, much like the
player-piano.
Calais shares with Nottingham
England, the honors for the manufac-
ture of machine-woven laces. The
other two leading lace towns make
what are known as the embroidered
and burnt out" laces, on entirely diff
| ferent machines. Calais smuggled it's
industry from England, but it has add
ed to the original English processes
and machinery enough to be in posi-
ton to claim perfection of it's own.
Aside from, and beyond, its momen-
tary military interest, Calais has the
liveliest interest for the person wide
awake to present-day marvels, as a
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1915-05-21
Find Potash in California.

The salt-incrusted valley floor COM
monty known as Searles Lake, III
southern California, has lately come
into prominence through the wide
spread interest in the search for an
available source of potash in this coun-
try and the apparently promising pros
poets this locality affords Of con-
siderable commercial production in
the near future. The estimate made
three years ago that this deposit con-
tains four million tons of water solu-
BILE potash salts seems to have been
amply confirmed by subsequent de-
velopments. That this amount Of pot
ash salts will actually be produced
and placed on the market cannot yet
be considered assured, but SO far as
can be judged from evidence available,
it seems that this deposit is the most
promising immediate source of COM
mercial potash in the United States.
