COMMENT MADE ON
PRAIRIE DU SAC DAM

The Chicago Tribune has a depart
ment each day for investors and con-
corning the Wisconsin River Power
company the writer says:
''The Wisconsin River Power COM
pany has new plant at Prairie du
Sac. 1t has begun operating and is
furnishing some power to the Milwau-
kee Electric Railway and Light COM
pany and to two or three small towns
near Prairie du Sac. These contracts
are sufficient to pay the interest on
the So, 400, 900 of first mortgage bonds
issued. Companies in Madison, and
some other towns have contracted for
power which will be delivered beginning
in September. Estimates are that the
company will then be earning one aad
one-half times its interest charges and
that it will be operating to only IS per
cent of its capacity.

The increase of price by perhaps 20

National Defense

When we went into war with Spain
the United States was conspicuously
unprepared for battle on sea or land.
Had we been attacking a first class
rather than a second class power, had
we fought real bartleships instead OF
weak and Anticipated gun boats, the
hostilities would have been long con
tinued. Our army was in wretched
shape. 1t was scandalously admins
tered by VIGOROUSLY incompetent seq
rotary of war. Our soldier boys died
by the hundreds in camps right here in
the United States without leaving our
shores and without engaging in bat
tie.
The United States is not so poorly
prepared for war today as it was in
1898, but comparatively speaking our
unpreparedness is seriously in evidence
The peace propaganda will make pro-
gress. All humane people should sup
port any movement seeking to minimize
the possibilities of war; but the peace
at-any price advocates will make little
impression upon patriotic Americans.
The United States navy is not a poor
navy, but it should be better and ir
time it will be made larger and strong
er. This country needs an effective
navy. Within the next few years il

OLDER But STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
