New Methods Paid

A significant instance of what pro-
per methods Of farming can accom-.
plish Is pointed out by the Uoited
States department Of agriculture by
a certain 500 acre farm in Michigan.
For ten years II failed to pay inter-
est on the capital invested. One year
after the owners had been induced to
make certain radical changes the farm
paid all the expenses OF operation and
returned them s per cent on an In
vestment Of $50, 900. The changes
which accomplished this financial
revolution we're as follows:
~ Fosr-horse machinery was sub
stituted for 2.horse.
(2) The Improbable cows In the
dairy herd were weeded out and sold
and the money received for them 10
vested 10 better stock.
(3) A silo was built.
az The foreman was allowed, in ad.
dition TO his salary, 10 per cent OF the
net income from the farm. The ex-
penses OF operating the farm, but not
the interest on the capital, were de-
Quoted from the income before the
foreman received his percentage.
1t was this last suggestion which
met with the most opposition from
the owners Of the farm, but when IL
was pointed out to them that for every
dollar the enan got under such an
arrangement they would get ~ they
yielded.

AFTER MANY DAYS.
John FOCAL Who Deserted Wife and
Children Arrested on His Return.

John FOCAL deserted his wife and
five children in Kenosha on the first
day of last August and since that time
the police of the city have been
searching for him. At the time he left
Kenosha it was thought possible that
he had met with foul play but Thurs
day afternoon FOCAL, hale and hearty,
returned to Kenosha and appeared at
his old haunts. It was just about a
half hour later that he was located by
Chief Of Police Feldschau who hurried
him to the city lookup and notified his
wife that her husband had been found.
The wife appeared against FOCAL in
the municipal court this morning and
he was held under bonds of five hund-
red dollars for an adjourned hearing
set for September 10Th. just to guard
against FOCAL making another tour he
was sent to jail in default Of bond.

MANY LANDS ARE FLOODED.
Highest Water Ever Known Spreads
Over the Valleys Along Fox River.

Over the Valleys Along Fox River.
People owning lands along the Fox
River in Kenosha county are reporting
heavy losses as a result of floods fol-
lowing the rising of the river and it
is declared that the worst has not been
reached as yet. The river is higher
than it has been in the history Of the
county and still rising. 1T has over
flowed its banks and spread over roads
and farm land, on both sides of it.
Corn in the low lands has been washed
out and the farmers have found It
necessary to remove their stock to the
uplands. Chairman Thomas Fleming
in the Town of Salem, who was in
Kenosha today, declared that the
river had never carried as much water
as at the present time. He declared
that lands all along the river were I'M
der water and the roads all but i'm
passable in some places. Heavy rains
the north of the county are said to
have been responsible for the con-
tinued rise Of the water.

SURRENDERs SELF TO POLICE
Man Is Graduate of Yale University
and Had Been Prominent in So
ciety at Moline Left Worthless
Checks Behind Him in Kenosha.

.
Harry G. Smith, Jr., who cut wide
swath in Kenosha some months ago as
manager of the Orpheum Theatre on
East Market street and who left the
city without any previous announce
ment and left number of worthless
checks behind him, has been arrested
at Moline, Ill, on charges Of grand
larceny. The former Kenosha theatre
manager surrendered himself to the
police at Moline yesterday and it is
declared that he gave up when he
found that the Moline officials were
tightening web Of guilt about him.
He is charged with stealing an auto
mobile valued at three thousand dol
lars from Z. f. Wharton, one of the
officials Of the Deere Harvesting Com
pany at Moline. The automobile was
stolen on the night of Saturday, May
22nd. The machine was recovered at
Pennington, ILL.,, some days later and
efforts had been made to repaint it to
prevent its being identified. Smith
gave bonds Of fifteen hundred dollars
following his arrest and he was held
to the September grand jury.
Smith fled from Pennington on the
night that the automobile was recov-
cred and he has refused to stste
where he had been since that time.
Mrs. Smith, who has been prominent in
the society Of Moline and a member
of one Of the most prominent families
in that city, agreed to surrender her
husband to the authorities if he was
given a chance to arrange for bonds.
Frank Fogarty, also said to have
been formerly from Kenosha, was ar
rested some time ago in connection
with the stealing of the automobile
and he was held for trial on charges Of
grand larceny. Fogarty at the time Of
his arrest declared that the man with
him in the car was named Sullivan
and that he was from Kenosha.
Fogarty claimed that he had been EN-
ployed by Sullivan to drive the car.
Fogarty identified a picture of Smith
as the man who had employed him
as a driver.
Smith seems to have seen a lot of
some sides of life. He is a son of Fl.
G. Smith, prominent at Bridgeport,
Conn, as a capitalist. Smith was
graduated from Yale several years ago
and then he drifted west. He was in
Kenosha for only few months and his
management Of the Orpheum Theatre
did not prove successful venture.
When he left here several months ago
he left a number of checks for which
no funds had been provided in the
bank. Later employees Of the theatre
declared that he had agreed to give
them a part of the equipment Of the
theatre as payment for their work for
him. No warrant was issued here for
the arrest of Smith.
Chief of Police Feldschau this
morning received message from Mo-
line police officers declaring that if
Smith was wanted here the officials
of that city would be glad to turn
him over to Kenosha officials. Chief
Feldschau will seek to find the desire

GREAT EDUCATORS COMING
Program VIII Be the Most Notable
Ever offered at Any Gathering of
Wisconsin School Teachers-An Ke-
nosha Teachers Will Attend Sessions.

School officials of Kenosha have re-
ceived from Burton E. Nelson of Ra-
cine, the president of the Wisconsin
State Teachers Association, the pro-
gram for the xty-third annual meet
ing of the association to be held in
Milwaukee, November 4, and 6. It is
expected that every teacher of the
IKenosha city schools and many from
the schools in the county viii attend
the annual convention and many of
them will have part in the program.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1915-09-23

In announcing the program, President
Nelson says of it:
The talent is as able as could be
secured. It is very largely new to us;
but in every case speakers have been
engaged because they have made good
before equally intelligent audiences
with our own. Music and some enter
tainment are provided, though it does
not subordinate the more profitable
features of the program. The pro-
grams are planned to cover definite
periods Every effort will be made to
begin on time and to close on time,
and the sessions will not be long. All
teachers should be in the room when
the gavel sounds and they should re-
main until dismissed. Conscientious
teachers will not take advantage of
the fact that watches are not on duty.
intellectual, education, moral educa-
tion and physical education are each
given place and sufficient emphasis
on this program. Teachers who are
reasonably faithful in attendance will
more than return to the district the
value in dollars and cents of the time
lost while attending the meeting

DATES SUCCESSFUL IN

Answering an inquiry regarding date culture Prof. k. H. Forbes. Dean of the U. orf A college of agriculture, re- plies:
 Date palms will endure any degree of cold experienced along the Colorado river At the Tempe date orchard we have passed through a temperature of II degrees F.. with a resulting loss of the green leaves of the palms, but without killing them. IL is only fair to say. however. that while the new tops came out promptly, the trees were quite severely set back as a result of the loss of reserve materials needed for the restoration of the palms. Al Yuma three years ago. at the time of the severe cold weather. the date palms were very little damaged.
 Date palms require comparatively little irrigating water, but must never he allowed to dry out With water at 10 to T. 1t. below the surface, the roots of the date palm will very quickly reach moist soil so that they will be in little danger of suffering from want of water supply. Nevertheless, even II palms are in moist soil an occasional irrigation is advisable

 H. q. Hammels has just received a letter from George A. Clark. who pur- shased the old Beaver ranch some time ago in which he indicates that he will become a resident of Glendale soon. He | is now living at Rambsburg. California. 1 There arc some bankers who are ! alive to the realization that the pros perity of all depends upon the success
 of the farmers of the valley. President Spence of the Glendale State Bank in l commenting upon the financial situation l remarked that all we need to bring aoout prosperity in the Salt River Val ! lev is proper cooperation of the banks | in rendering necessary assistance to inc farmers. This of course can not
 be brought about through one bank, but | must be worked through the coopera i ton of all banks. This he says is being done in other sections of the United
 States and must be done here.
 The valley is likely to be over stocked with milo maize next fall. Ev erv available acre of desert is being
 planted to this product while there IS | guarantee that there will he sufficient flood water to make the crop. This IS perfectly all right in the case of land
 that cannot obtain water except iron
 flood supply as people cannot take
 chances with permanent and more eX-
 pensive crops on these lands. But lands
 having permanent water supply
 should be planted to some other pro
 duct in order to protect the interests Of all.
