and Racine county will ultimately be
as famous for their cabbage seed as
Holland now is. The new cabbage can
be grown on the worst known diseased
ground. 1t produces big healthy heads
on the same ground that kills off the
best imported Holland cabbage seed.
AS long as the cabbage originated in
this county and has been grown here
successfully, Mr.. Hansche thinks that
it is likely the county will soon become
a great cabbage seed producing center.
The new cabbage has been widely ad-
vertised. Mr.. Hansche has received in
quiries about it from farmers in all
parts of the United States and Canada.
He thinks that it will prove to be of
untold value to the growers of this and
Racine counties and that many Of them
will become rich through its sale. A
meeting of the association formed at a
demonstration meeting of Racine and
Kenosha county cabbage growers last
year, will be called as soon as the
seeds mature. At that time the exist
ing seeds will be divided among the
members.
Mr.. Hansche said that the present
year has been a disastrous one for the
farmers around here. Many of them
have titled and planted their fields
three times this season and will have
to do it again. This will retard the
growth of the crops, make late sea-
son and perhaps result in a total loss
to the growers. He thinks that the fact
that the new Jones breed of cabbage is
doing SO well in spite of these climatic
conditions is significant. One thousand
heads will be produced this year.

There is considerable misunderstand-
ing of the new Illinois marriage law
and it is reported that many couples
which have journeyed to that state to
have ceremonies performed since the
law went into effect on the first Of the
month have been disappointed. The
law is very simple. It's effect is that
outside couples marrying in that state
cana only be married under the laws of
theF state from which they come. All
of which for Wisconsin people means
that4 the FIVE day license provision and
the eugenics certificate are just as
muchN a requirement. for them now in
Illinois as in this state. Every safe
guard with which Wisconsin has en-
deavorSed to surround the marriage rela-
tion ina this state is in force for Wis
consin people marrying in Illinois
The provisionseof the state laws cannot
be Ndodged by leaving the state.

SEASON PROVES ADVERSE ONE
w. J. Hansche, Leader in Great Indus
try, However, Sees Great Future For
Racine and Kenosha Counties as the
Real Cabbage Center of the Country.

That Racine and Kenosha counties
are destined to become great centers
for the growing of commercialized cab
bage seed is the belief of w. J.
Hansche, one of the best known cab
bage growers in Wisconsin. Mr..
Hanche has been largely instrumental
in the discovery of the new disease re-
sisting brand of cabbage perfected by
Prof. Jones of the agricultural depart
ment of the University of Wisconsin.
It was upon Mr.. Hansches farm, on
the Lake Shore drive, north of this
city, that Prof. Jones labored for six
years on this particular brand of cab
bage.
Last year the efforts Of the expert
mentors We're crowned with success.
They found that the new cabbage
could be raised on ground which
would produce no other breeds.
The result was the organization of
the Racine and Kenosha County Cab
bage Growers association. The seeds
from the new breed became the proper
ty of this association and the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin. They were turned
over to Mr.. Hansche and few others
I'd planted this year and seeds will be
given to all members this fall.
Mr.. Hansche said today that the cab
bage which he planted has thrived in
spite of an adverse season. It is all
in blossom and now gives indications
of producing an abundance of seeds.
The season has been most unfavorable
for cabbage growing, first it was too
dry and then it was too wet. In spite
of these facts the cabbage is doing
nicely.
In the opinion of Mr.. Hansche this

A lot Of people who have heretofore
been opposed to the old absurd anti
cigarette law carried on the statute
books but never enforced in this state
are waiting with a great deal of in
terest for the first developments under
the new law and they propose to do
what they can to secure its strict en-
forcement in Kenosha. The authori-
ties are expected to demonstrate to the
dealers that while the first anti CT
garette law was dead letter from the
start, the present law is very much
alive and that the dealer who violates
it need expect no consideration what
ever. 1t should be possible to convince
any dealer that the prohibition against
the sale of the cigarettes or the ma
terials for making them to minors
means exactly what it says.

TREAT CHILDREN
FOR CASE OF RABIES

Iowa City, Aug. 4.-Gladys Rowland

dog. She has been brought here by

from a mad dog, two other children
came here from Des Moines to take the

bit Master George Potts of Belmond,
and the examination of the then killed

Pathological laboratories, and all OF

MEXICAN BANDITS
FIGHTING THE u. S.

BrOWnSV1lle, Texas, Aug. o.-lWelVe
to fifteen Mexican bandits are reported
killed in fighting today with United
States cavalrymen and American
possemen in the low, thick, thorny
brush north of Brownsville. Private
Mcclure of the 18th cavalry, was re-
ported killed; Private Curtis possibly
fatally wounded; Joe Taylor, a GUS
toms guard, shot in the shoulder, and
Deputy Sheriff C. A. Monahan of
Brownsville, shot in the leg.
Appeals have been sent to Governor
Ferguson today asking for more United
States troops to guard this section or
the border. The outlaws are believed
to be part of the same band which has
been marauding In this section, rom
20 to 60 miles inside the American
border, for nearly three weeks.
One American was killed by them
two weeks ago. The country is sparse
ly settled, the low brush with thick
foliage affording unlimited hiding
places and at the same time enough
clear ground for rapid maneuvering
over long distances while under cover.
This particular body of bandits
was discovered about o'clock this
morning near San Benito, Texas, about
Is miles from the border, by Sam Rob-
ertson, president of the San Benito
and Rio Grande Valley railway, while
returning from surveying, He reported
that they seemed to have stockade.
Lieutenant Leutz ordered Troop A
imme diately into their saddles, tWen-
ty-six cavalrymen galloping out of San
Benito accompanied by several local Of
ficers.
The Americans unexpectedly ran on
the MeXicans. A running fight began.
For the remainder of the night and
much of the morning there was con-
tinual rife firing in the brush.
About 800 farmers from near San
Renito have joined in the hunt.
Villa Force Beaten.
Galveston, Texas, Aug. 8. The Villa
column under General Rodolfo Fierros,
which recently penetrated Carranza
territory as far as Pachuca, virtually
was annihilated yesterday between
Queretaro and Irapuato, according to
a report reaching the constitutionalist
consulate here today. The Villa troops
were caught between the forces of Gen.
eral Obregon and General Gonzales.
Fierros, the report says, was endeavor-
ing to return north to join the main
Villa army when he was caught IN the
trap set by the Carranza generals.
General Oregon also reports the
capture of three million rounds OF am
munition in the battle of last Friday
south of Torreon.
