Frank Herfort, owner of the Herfort
Canning factory, states that the out
look for the corn crop is the best it
has ever been. The showers came
along at just the right time and even
if not another drop of rain falls be-
tween now and the first Of September,
when he expects to start canning, corn
will not suffer. Mr.. Herfort has made
arrangements to cap $4,000 cases of
corn or nearly one million, five hun
dred thousand cans, and the Herfort
Canning factory, which is one of Bara.
boo's most successful industries, will
be a mighty busy place for several
weeks, beginning about the first of
next month.
Few people in Baraboo realize the
amount Of business that takes place in
a year at this big, newly equipped
plant. In fact, 125 carloads are ship
ped in and out during a year, and the
business done by the Herfort factory,
in conjunction with the amount of ore
being shipped from the mines and the
shipments made by few other Bara-
boo enterprises has made it necessary
of late to add another engine to assist
in the yard work. The latter is requir.
ed mainly to aid in pushing the heavy
loads over the Dane hills.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
CANNOT RE CO.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catar-
rhal deafness, and that is by a consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an infiamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless
the Inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to its normal con.
dition, hearing will be destroyed for.
ever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an In
famed condition of the mucous sur.
faces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Circulars free. All druggists,

/ The German Lutheran church held
it's annual picnic yesterday at Devils
Lake. One hundred sixty members Of
the Sunday-school and church spent
the day at the lake. A picnic dinner
was served from well-f1lled lunch
baskets and enough was left so that
they also had supper there. In the
afternoon they enjoyed games and
races, to the winners of which prizes
were given.
| Mrs. E. M. Hoag and daughter, Miss
Ethel, have returned from trip to
Carrollton, ILL.,, where they visited
Mrs. Hoag's son, Arthur Hoag, and to
Omaha, Neb., where they visited Mrs.
Hoag's brother, Arthur Partridge.
Miss Josephine Zantow of Rock
ford, ILL.,, who is visiting her brother,
w. e. Zantow, who resides on Bara-
boo Bluffs, had a hair-raising expert
ence the other day. AS she was STEP
ping off the porch she noticed rat
tlesnake on the steps. Her brother,
when called, quickly despatched the
reptile. It measured four feet in
length.
/ Thursday the members of the Steu-
Der family held their annual picnic
on the south shore Of Devils Lake.
About seventy+fiye people attended,
coming from Prairie du Sac, North
Freedom, Merrimack, Lodi, Madison
and Baraboo. After the picnic dinner
a short program was held and then
the officers for the ensuing year were
elected
On Thursday Rev and Mrs. James
Jefferson gave a five-course luncheon
at their home, 1923 Lynn avenue, to
eighteen of their friends. The decora-
tions included perennial phlox and
sweet peas. A social afternoon was
enjoyed and at the conclusion of the
entertainment the guests were taken
to their homes in Mr.. Jefferson-'s new
car
T. Edw. Mead has returned from
trip to South Dakota and Minnesota.
He says the wheat yield is far short Of
the normal, many fields not producing
more than eight bushels to the acre.
Early in the spring there was abund-
ant rain, which resulted in large straw
ho hn{
lowed and instead of the grains be-
coming plump they shriveled. 1t was
a forlorn sight to see such fine fields
yielding so little. The farmers are d.
versifying their crops more and more
and for this reason do not feel the
loss as keenly as they would have felt
it years ago when they depended on
wheat alone Mr.. Mead is inclined to
believe the price of wheat will be
much higher than at present. Mr..
Meads children returned with him
from the west.
/ Mrs Carl Braun was called to Mad

death of her young nephew, the son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Brausen.
