Black Leg.

Some stock men from Chase county,
Neb., were in Holyoke the first of the
week and reported that black leg was
causing the death of young cattle
in their county. This is evidently be-
being caused by the fine pasture on the
range this year. Cattle were taken
through the winter in fine condition and
the fine pasture is fattening the cattle
rapidly.
Our farmers and stock raisers should
be prepared to battle with this disease
among their young stock and the soon
er the better, for, if it has not already
appeared in our county. it is very liable
to do so.

LADYSMITH ON AUTO ROUTES
Wisconsin Advancement Association
Proposes &c Mark Through Roads
With Distinctive Symbols

A preliminary schedule of automC
bile roads through the state, each OF
these roads to be marked at frequent
intervals with it's peculiar sign, is
being prepared by the Wisconsin Ad
vancement Association.
The work of marking these roads
has already begun and the whole
series of routes will be marked
within a very short time. What it
will mean to the state in the future
is suggested by the profitable re-
turns that are being received in 9th
er states having good summer re-
sorts and other attractions for the
tourist. Some states are receiving
an annual income of millions of dol
lars.
1t is admitted that for automobile
tourists Wisconsin has the advan-
tage in roads at the present time
and conditions permitting immeasur-
ably better roads in the future than
any other state now prominent in
the summer tourist business.
There are vast numbers in the
middle west whose touring is limited
by the condition of the highways or
their knowledge of them. 1t may be
said that the benefits of this traffic
are limited to those on roads traVers-
ing the regions of the state that are
possessed of the greater attractions,
and that to an extent is true, but
they are divided also with the in
tervening territory, and they are
enough to command the attention of
the state as a whole.
With through highways we'll marked
and improved and the facts published
throughout the middle west, there is
good reason to believe that there
will be an immense automobile traf-
fic throughout large portion of the
state and that it will bring to the
state millions of dollars every year
in the future.
Ladysmith is on two Of these
routes, as follows:
Yellow Circle Route-Green Bay to
Minneapolis, via ShaWano, Phlox, An
tigo, Rhinelander, Prentice, Lady
smith, Barron, Turtle Lake, Clear
Lake, New Richmond and Hudson.
Red Square Route-Stanley to La
dysmith (and beyond), via Boyd,
Cornell 1.-TWO miles west), and Hol-
cOmbe.

surers The business of the stock
companies is therefore of particular
interest The figures show that
even with a general excessive fire
loss during 1914, the loss rate in
Wisconsin is much less than that
throughout the United States, and
comparison of premium payments
to losses in Wisconsin and through
out the United States shows that
the people of Wisconsin are still
being compelled to pay more than
their share Of the fire insurance pre-
miums.
Fire losses will fluctuate. A city
haying a good record may have an
excessive loss for one or more years,
but given a large territory or reas-
enable period of time, the losses will
average. During the ten years 1906
1914, the people of Wisconsin have
paid the stock fire insurance cor
porations over $70,O0O,00O in pre-
minus and received for losses less
than $310O0,OOC and Wisconsin pol
icy-holders have paid 1929 in pre-
miums for each 800 of losses,
against SITS paid on the average
throughout the United States.

DRAWS TEN-DAY SENTENCE

Steve Perhofer was arrested on
Wednesday, charged with stealing
sulphur from the Menasha Paper Co.
last Sunday. In Justice Reeves court,
Perhofer admitted taking the sui
phur, but said he did not steal It.
He was sentenced to pay a fine of
$500 and costs-amounting in all to
$11.75-or serve ten days in the
county Jail. Perhofer decided to
board with Sheriff Stewart rather
than pay the fine.
The paper company has been con-
siderably annoyed by constant thiev-
ing, much Of it petty, but in the
aggregate entailing no small amount
of loss. Prosecutions are aimed at
the act rather than the amount OF
any particular case.

County Tractor at Wcrk

The new tractor, recently pur-

The new engine handles the grade"

a much more even power than the

advantage of the new engine is the
