W vTANING is the process by
\A/ which breast feeding Is
w stopped and another food
given in its place. 1t should
be done gradually. At first give one
bottle instead of one of the breast feed
ings: after a week or two add another
bottle, and then continue adding them
until bottle feedings are entirely SUBJ
stituted for the breast.
Never hurry the weaving. Give the
baby time to get used to the new food.

Some mothers are able to nurse their
babies full year, but many find that
their milk begins to fail by the time

The weather bureaus started in the
last Of April to issue weekly forecasts
for the special benefit of farmers and
dealers in perishable goods. Weather
conditions are very delicately bal
anced. They are exceedingly sensitive
to changes in conflicting forces, by
which they are easily modified. So the
best made predictions are frequently
entirely unset. Farmers and others
therefore can not depend on these pre-
Fdictions too literally. But it must be
exceedingly beneficial to the farmers
to know in general way that storms
and cold and warm waves are observed
coming toward them. The farmer
needs to learn 10 combine the govern
Iment prediction with close personal OBJ
servation Of his own. Signs of a
storm are good deal more ominous
if they are reinforced by the govern
ment bulletin that serious disturbances
are reported on the way. Probably
the time will come when most farmers
will make it a regular part of their
business, both to observe the skies
with critical and intelligent eye, and
to connect with the newspaper or post
iOfice that has the latest bulletins.

After an effort extending over a
period Of three years, the movement
for decorative lighting in the down
town business district was finally sue
cessful Monday evening when the
council without division, voted to have
the lights installed on Main, Market
and Wisconsin streets. The property
owners pay two-thirds of the cost of
the new system and the city one-third,
the city's share under this arrange
ment being but little more than it pays
now to maintain the arc lights on these
streets. The success of the movement
which will give Kenosha business
district as we'll Illuminated as that of
any city in the state, is due to the per-
sistent and untiring efforts of the
special committee of the Retailer s AS
ISOLATION appointed to work out the
plans for the new lighting system. In
the face of discouragements and delays
that would have made most men drop
the whole matter in disgust, they re-
fused to give up the project and they
are to be congratulated on the success
full outcome Of their efforts. Their
reward is the consciousness Of having
carried through trust committed to
them and the knowledge that they
have done something for the advance
ment of the city. Kenosha could use a
lot more of the spirit shown by this
committee.

justices Of the peace can hold inquests
Ionly on the order of the district at
ltorney and the law will be applied in
this county. There has always been
more or less opposition in the county
board to paying some of the bills on
inquest cases due to the belief that in
many cases where juries have been
summoned no investigation was neces-
sary and the application Of the new
llaw will do away with this opposition
An order from the district attorney to
a justice to hold an inquest in any

Gov. Philip Makes Plain
His Stand in Regard to
the Schools of the State.
RURAL SCHOOLS NEGLECTED.

A plea for an "epidemic of truth !"
regarding matters educational in Wis
consin, was made by Gov. Phillip at
the laying of the cornerstone of the
new Cudahy school last week.
The governor gave some figures to
show that the duty of the state at
present is to turn its attention to the
common schools and see that children
of school age receive the education
which is their right. More than 81 900
children of the state failed to attend
school at all during the last year and
$1,000 attended less than the required
number Of hours, tha governor said
"The state Of Wisconsin has been
liberal in its expenditures for schools, y
said Gov. Philip, but the money has
not been spent as wisely as it should
be.
tsWe have built our normal schools
and our beautiful buildings at the uni
versity. The cities, too, have done
what they could. But how about out
side the cityg Here in our great rural
districts education was intended for
all the people and is maintained by all
the people. It's favors must be equally
divided among all classes.

been said about me is that I have been
promoting certain educational moves

am accused of exploiting these little
children here so that / NAV benefit
