STATE HAS LARGE
POTATO OUTPUT
NEARLY 25,oooo,o 900 BUSHELS ARE
ANNUALLY MARKETED IN
WISCONSIN,.
FARMERS STORE AT HOME
Warehouses in State Accommodate
Only one-third of Yearly Crop
Machinery Is Gradually
Being Installed.

Madison.-That Wisconsin is annu-
ally marketing in the neighborhood of
25,0O0,000 bushels of potatoes, or 20
per cent of the entire output entering
Interstate trade, is the information
given out in a bulletin issued by the
university college of agriculture While
this output is sent to nearly every
state in the union, the majority part of
1t is consumed in the middle west and
Mississippi valley.
Another point brought out by the
bulletin is that the warehouses in the
state have capacity to accommodate
but one third of the yearly crops.
Most Of the storing is done by farmers
themselves, it being more economical
for the farmers to store at home and
haul to the shipping point at their con-
venience.
Chicago is the greatest potato mar
ket, according to the bulletins, and in
sists upon the potatoes being shipped
in bulk so that they can be graded
there before sacking for the city trade.
Machinery is gradually being intro
duced for the grading and handling
of potatoes which greatly aids in the
work of taking care of the crop.

HEMP PROVES ITS WORTH
Experiments Tend to Show Growers
Can Realize $40 TO $75 Per
Acre Net Profit.

Madison.-That hemp can be grown
In Wisconsin as a cash crop, paying
the farmer from $40 to SIS per acre
net profit, has been demonstrated by
Prof. G. P. Norgord, state commits
sioner of agriculture, who has just
concluded the sale of $4,000 worth of
fibre. The sale was made for the Wis
consin Hemp Growers association, of
which G. G. Greenfield of Waupun is
secretary.
In 1909 the agronomy department of
the University of Wisconsin, with
which Prof. Norgord was connected,
conceived the notion that hemp grow
ing in Wisconsin might be made prof
liable and Prof. R. A. Moore assigned
Prof. Norgord to the investigation.
The Hemp Growers association was
formed with one center of experiment.
alton in the region around Waupun,
Brandon and Beaver Dam, and another
in the vicinity of Burlington and I'm
ion Grove. At these centers success
full crops have been grown ever since.
Prof. Norgord last year sold the 1913
crop for $4,000. The present $4,000
sale is of the crop of 1914 Mr.. Nor
cord says that the crop of 1915, now
being harvested, is a record breaker,
and the sale of the last years crop
has demonstrated the value of the
product.
Hemp, as it is produced in Wiscon-
sin, is used for the manufacture of
cordage, sails, wrapping, Irvine, car
pets and coarse threads for certain
purposes. The area devoted to hemp
this year is about 400 acres.

Goldfish Market swamped.

A big thrush of Goldfish along the
northern and eastern coasts during
the latter part of June caused a salt
famine in the Ancient Colony. The
salt used by the Newfoundland fisher
folk for curing their catch is obtained
from Trapani in Sicily and Cadiz in
Spain Practically all the salt in the
island has been absorbed, and it is
claimed that about $4,000 tons more
could be advantageously used if it
were available. At least this guam
tity, and probably more, has been
ordered and should arrive during the
next month, but much of it will come
to hand too late to be of any real serv-
ice This shortage of salt is likely to
affect the banking feet also, which
has had exceptional good fortune in
it's earlier voyages this year The
average price of cod paid last year
and the year before, both in New
foundland and Nova Scotia, was about
$3.50 per quintal, but with foreign
markets as they are at present it is
hoped that at least another twenty
five cents per quintal may be OBJ
tanned. The fact that fish of late are
so plentiful is inducing industry, and
also stimulating smaller operators to
prosecute the shore fishery more OK
tensively.

There also was display by manual

TAR AND FEATHER ACCUSED
Removal Brings BIisters and Doctor
and Prosecutor Are Called In
into the Case.

Neillsville.-Tarred and feathered
by a gang of men, George Behring of
the town of Mayville was later arrest
ed and has been bound over to Circuit
court. All spectators were barred at
the preliminary examination held be-
fore Justice Firnstahl at Colby.
Behring was waylaid near his home.
After taking off all his clothing, his as
sailants applied coat of tar with a
broom, and feathers were then added.
He used kerosene to remove the tar.
The oil blistered Behring so serious
ly that he consulted a Colby physician
for relief, with the result that District
Attorney Rush was called into the
case.
When the district attorney learned
that the tar and feathers had been ap-
piled because Behring was accused by
a young woman he had escorted home
from a dance, Behring was arrested
on serious charge.

Il Civilians Learn t. Shoot.

Civilian rifle clubs are lately re-
ceiving much attention. They have
developed a number of men who are
excellent shots with 22-caliber rifles,
indoors, at a distance of so to rs
feet.
Comparatively few. however, are
able to handle the modern high-pow-
cred 30-caliber United States maya
zine rife and hit target 1000 yards
away. Moreover, even were all our
men good shots, it must be remem-
bered that shooting is merely one of
the important parts of a soldiers
training, and that it is a very small
part.
The soldier who can do nothing but
shoot has about the same relative
value as a polo player who can sit
on a fence and WELD a mallet skill
fully, but who can't ride horse

STATE TO INSPECT BOILERS
Special Committee of EXPERTS Has
Aided Industrial Commission
In Working Out Code.

Mad1son-State inspection of sta
tlonary boilers soon will be an actualitv
IN Wisconsin. Three years ago the
industrial commission made a begin
ming in this important work and before
long it will adopt the entire set of
rules to be known as the Wisconsin
boiler code.
The plan is to utilize existing ma
chlnery for inspections. Insurance
company inspectors, for example, will
continue to inspect boilers which are
insured. They will report to the COM
mission and there will be no charge
to the owner other than the customary
premium paid to the insurer. In the
city Of Milwaukee the city inspector
viii continue to make inspections. The
commissions inspectors will inspect
only those boilers outside of Milwau-
kee which are not insured. This is
expected to eliminate the danger of
disastrous explosions.
