Philip delegates. They were behind

Prosperity Makes Men Good.

Has the changed industrial condition
in Wisconsin stopped the flood OF the
population in the state prison? Or.
has some other influence operated TO
bring about the ebb now appearing In
the record?
Secretary M. ]. Tappins of the state
board of control says that, in his
opinion, the explanation lies in the
first suggestion and that because
times are better" there are fewer
men in state prison. Eight months
ago the board of control was worried
over the prospect, confidently expect
ing that by the end of the fiscal year
1876 the number of convicts would
reach 1,100 At that time the popu-
lation of the prison was 921, record
for the institution.
Since then, however, conditions
have reversed and has been gradual
decrease until now the total is only
896 Today the board of control meets
and sits as a pardon and parole board
at the prison and will probably grant
freedom to twenty-five or thirty, bring
ing the total population TO about eight
hundred and seventy.

Wisconsin Company Wins.

Wisconsin Company Wins.
Under ruling of Insurance Com
missioner NJ j. Cleary, policyholders
of a mutual company in the same class
will be entitled to like percentage OF
dividend, based upon the premium con-
tribution of the several policyholders.
The decision is given in the case of
the John H. Kaiser Lumber company
against the Lumberman' Mutual Cas-
ualty company of Illinois.
The complaint charges that Wiscon-
sin policyholders engaged in logging
or sawmill operations were placed in
class B, and dividend of 10 per cent
was declared for that class. Policy
holders engaged in the same lines in
Michigan were placed in class A and
a dividend of % per cent declared to
all policy holders in that class.
The complaint specifically charged
that Wisconsin policyholders were dis
eliminated against, and that such dis
elimination is in violation of law. The
decision of Insurance. Commissioners
Cleary upholds the reasonableness of
the complaint.

City of Superior Decides to Abolish
Saloons - Ashland, BeIot and

Waukee-Reports of many excit-

of 1858 votes counted, and 1853 saloons
there must close. Ashland, which vot-
ed wet by fifteen last year, gave the
vets 124 majority this time after a
hot campaign. Beloit stayed wet by
227 and Amigo by $40. Ladysmith
which was dry by few votes, voted
wet by fourteen. Incomplete returns

STATES ALFALFA
FARMS RANK HIGH
Interesting Demonstration Made
at Madison Meeting.
WAUKESHA COUNTY IN LEAD
j. r. Wheeler Tells Banker-Farm
of Herd Records-Dean n. l.. Rus
sell Says College Work Is
Not Costly.

Madison While Kansas and other
western states have wonderful alfalfa
farms it was demonstrated before the
annual meeting of Farmer-Bankers
association here that there are some
in Wisconsin that rank among the I'M
est. The demonstration was made by
means of motion pictures in which
every phase of the industry was por-
trayed.
One farm owned by the Schwartz
brothers in Waukesha county was
shown with nearly 200 acres of al
falfa, with six mowers encircling the
mammoth fields and with all sorts or
labor-saying machinery scarcely known
to the average farmer OF Wisconsin.
THE farmer in northern Wisconsin
does not need alfalfa as badly as the
farmer in southern Wisconsin" said
Prof. L. F. GRADER, alfalfa expert OF the
university. The farmer in the upper
state has the advantage of very rank
growth of clover which offsets in
large measure the need of alfalfa.
There are some difficulties with al
falfa 1t must be taken care of dur
ing the summer just at the time when
other crops are pressing for attention.
There are also other handicaps, but
the fact remains that there is no crop
on the Wisconsin farm with such
high digestible food value as alfalfa.
1t is the crop which restores the most
r &c no hoe
yielding crop, exceeding silage and
timothy greatly"
j. r. Wheeler, discussing herd rec
ords, pointed out that the average COW
in Wisconsin produces only III pounds
of butterfat per year while there are
herds in the southern part of the state
producing 600 pounds of butter on the
average and there are many herds
with butterfat records of $50 to 500
pounds.
The work of milking, which the
farmers complain of, said Mr.. Wheel
er, the trouble in getting hired hands,
might be minimized easily if the farm
ers kept better cows. One farmer in
a single year, he pointed out, by keep
ing better cows got as big return
from four COWS the second year as
previously from ten.
Dean H. l.. Russell pointed out in
his address that the farm college is
costing every farmer in the state about
ten cents on every $1,000 of assess
ment, so that each farmer is paying
in the aggregate about so cents year
for support of the farm school.
Come here and get your so cents
worth" urged Dean Russell. Come
and judge if we are delivering the
goods If we are not, tell us how we
can improve"
Professor Russell pointed out all of
the ways that are being used by the
college of agriculture to disseminate
information.

War on $4,000. 900 Prairie Dogs.

The 25,000,000 prairie dogs that In
habit the pasture ranges of New
Mexico and Arizona destroy, says the
Youths Companion, enough grass to
support a million cows or 5,OOO,OOV
sheep. Therefore, the government
acting on an appeal by the stockmen'
has employed men to wage a syste-
matte warfare of determination upon
the little creatures. But it will be
long war, for the enemy is widely dis
