FIGHT ON MOUNTAIN HEIGHTS
Italians and Austrians Battle Among
Peaks That Are Considered
Almost Inaccessible.

Italy's Alpine troops, mountain ar
tillery and several regiments of ber-
saglieri (sharpshootersl are appar-
emily bearing the brunt of the war
with Austria.
These troops have since the begin
ming of the war been occupying stra-
tegic positions, generally the peaks
OF almost inaccessible mountains dom
mating the enemy's forts and in
trenched camps. hauling up guns and
/ holding these positions against the re-
peated attacks of the Austrians who
are striving to open a way toward
possible future invasion of Italy.
Scarcely any details are available
about their hard fighting up in the
mountains where the snow is still sew
eral feet deep and no eyewitnesses
are present.
A company of Alpini was on the
march at night along a mountain path
skirting valley 200 feet below. The
path was narrow and a false step
meant death. The men marched care
fully and slowly in Indian file and
kept well in from the edge. The Of
ficer who marched in front when the
path widened ordered the men to halt
and lie down for an hours rest. The
Alpini accordingly rolled themselves
up in their blankets and settled to
sleep, when a dull, muffied noise was
hef.fd coming up from the valley.
Three or four Alpini understood at
once what it meant. The Austrians
down in the valley were mining the
path from below in the hope of blow
up the force. They looked down the
precipi,e, but could not see anything
1t was pitch dark. Still the noise con-
tinued. The Alpini hit on a plan at
once and the officer approved it.
One of them, a knife in his mouth
and a rifle in his hands, was let down
the ledge tied to a rope. When he
saw the shadows of the AustrianS
working on the rock he fired at a dis
lance of less than ten yards. The Aus
TRANS fed for cover and then opened
fire against the man dangling from
the rope, but his comrades hauled him
to safety. When the Alpini explored
the valley next morning they found
three Austrians killed and near them
the dynamite charge they were pre-
pairing.

Paid Bio Price for Ram.

The price of mutton has gone up
in Australia. When the Red Cross
fund was being raised one wealthy
sheepowner presented a ram to be
sold by auction and the proceeds de-
voted to the fund. The ram was sold
in Sydney. The auctioneer who WELD
ed the hammer made an eloquent ap-
peal to the pastoralists and others
present to see to it that the ram
brought a sum worthy of the object,
and one that would live for ever in
the history of these sales. The ram,
which was appropriately named Aus
tralia Day." was sold and resold %
times, mostly in straightout bids, and
when 1000 guineas had been realized
he was put up for final sale and
knocked down at 200 guineas ($1,02O.

REFUSES TO BE A CANDIDATE
Asks Name Be Left Off Ballot
in Nebraska.

Washington, Nov. 20. - Associate
Justice Hughes of the Supreme court
on Thursday notified the secretary of
state of Nebraska he would not be a
candidate at the coming presidential
primary election and requested that
his name be not placed on the ballot
The attorney general of Nebraska
has been quoted as saying Justice
Hughes could not withdraw his name
from the primary ticket.
The petition stated that Justice
Hughes name was filed without his
knowledge and that while the petition
ers were aware he was opposed to any
consideration of his name as a candi-
date they wero convinced that the
welfare of the nation, in its broadcast
sense, demands the drafting of it's
highest and most available talent to
lead in the approaching contest for
triumph of Republican principles, and
that the emergency demands a resort
to conscription.'

Writing from hospital in England,
where he was sent after a severe en-
gagement near Ypres, a Canadian
says that, owing to the strain Of liy'

tine is as follows for any battalion:
Four days in the firing line, four days
in reserve, four days in the firing line
again. four days in reserve, and then
16 days behind in order to rest. This
is a most definite proof of the ire
mendous strain troops must undergo
in modern warfare, when even after
this steady regime of relaxation cases

TAX BOARD ECONOMIES
State Commission Drops Four of
Seven investigators Who Were
Dgesting Figures.

MadisOn.-The tax commission is
dropping four of the seven investi-
gators who have been digesting fig
ures from real estate sales to give a
basis for valuation for taxes. The
work will be done by income tax as
SCISSORS from now on. The three in
vestigators retained will visit the as
SCISSORS and explain the work. The
system consists in making an aver
age of the ratio of sale prices to as
sessed valuation for five years run
ming, and applying this ratio to all
property in the county. The five
year period is long enough to elimi-
nate results in local fluctuations in
real estate.

MAKING BID FOR LEAD
WOOD COUNTY STANDS HIGH IN
STATE AS DAIRY CENTER.
Has Twenty eight Cheese Factories
ana Nineteen Creameries-Far-
mers Keep Testing Records

Grand Rapids.-Some twenty
years ago Dean Henry of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin caused a small sem
sation in the southern part of the
state by making the statement that
a great dairy community would be
developed in central Wisconsin that
would rival that of the southern
counties, and it has proved to be the
case. At the present time the GEN.
trail Wisconsin district is as good
dairying section as can be found any
where.
The soil of Wood county, which is
in the heart of the dairying section,
is in the southern portion marsh
land and on this territory is raised
some of the best cranberries of the
world. In the northern three-quar-
tiers is a heavier clay soil and makes
an excellent dairying community.
Corn, grains, alfalfa, clover and po-
tatOes are good crops on this soil and
the dairy cow is found here in album
dance. Nearly every corner supports
a creamery or cheese factory and sell
dom is a farmer found who doesn't
get his monthly cream check.
The territory supports two breed
ers associations, the Central Wiscon-
sin Holstein Breeders association and
the Central Guernsey Breeders asso-
citation. Regular testing records are
kent and every farmer knows lust
which COWS are paying and how much
they pay. With twenty-eight cheese
factories and nineteen creameries,
Wood county is making a strong bid
for the leading dairying section of
the state.
