MT. A. H .Conlan is a recent ar rival from Marshal City where he spent the better part of thirty days looking over the camp. The camp is a hummer according to MT. Con- Ian who says that one hundred ana forty men are employed there at five dollars day for eight hours. However he does not advise any men to go there looking for work as they will have all the men they want. The largest individual em- blower of men. is M'Grath who has forty men on his pay roll. They are wheeling into buckets ana hoisting with a derrick into slulce boxes. Waskey has also a gang or men employed and is doing well Bradley and Webster known locally as the little Guggs have gang busy. Riley and Mackenzie were erecting their steam scraper appa- ratus when Conlan left. Several others were also getting ready for action, all of the productive caims being on Willow creek. MT. Con- Ian has been prospecting on the Shugaruk slough and intends to re turn there for winter working.

''NEBRASKA A BOOMER THESE
DAYS." SAYS T. III. RAMSHAW

I. II. Ramshaw spent several weeks
recently in Nebraska where he has
some farming property Mr.. Ramshaw
says that Nebraska is at the height OF
prosperity all around.
SCOTS Bluffs county, in the early
days was considered a barren waste
OF sand hills and towering buttes.
Last month Mr. Ramshaw disposed
Of an 80 in that county for $4,000. The
land is under irrigation and doubtless
will go to a much higher sum within
several years.
Mr.. Ramshaw has 1872 acres near
Ashland in Saunders county. His son
is farming it now and the young man
is the fortunate owner Of 5000 bushels
Of Nebraska corn which means the
best in the world and no mistake.

WAS A GREAT SHOW
BURLIE DOBSON BACK FROM CHI
CAGO is ENTHUSIASTIC OVER
RECENT STOCK EXHIBITION.

Burlie Dobson, Of Dobson & East
man, breeders Of Poland Chinas and
Shorthorn cattle and Oxford sheep,
who returned from the International
Livestock show in Chicago, Dec. 1st
to 9th, is enthusiastic over the entire
affair
Mr.. Dobson said that authorities
from all over the world declared the
show to be the greatest ever, without
exception.
Representatives were there from
PRACTICAL all the foreign countries
and every state in the union Wis
consin had large delegation and
Grant county a splendid turnout.
The prize steer of all was from
the California Agricultural College.
He was a yearling from a pure bred
Shorthorn COW and a Hereford bull,
and weighed around LOO pounds. Ae
auction he sold for $1.75 the pound, or
a total of nearly $4,000.
The judge declared him to be the
finest bullock he had ever put his
hands on.
The cattle exhibition throughout was
of the same class One of the best
steers shown was a pure bred Short
horn owned by a Mr.. Hill Of Minneso-
ia. This animal was two and One-half
years old and unfortunately had no
class. He weighed 1850 pounds and
was probably as smooth a steer as was
on exhibition.
In the swine department, the car
loads and barrow classes were Al
specimens. All breeds showed we'll,
the Poland Chinas winning champion
barrOws and barrows in carload. The
champion barrow was owned by Mr..
Howard Francis Of New Lennox, Ill
This hog was fifteen months old and
weighed 625 pounds. His winnings
were very high.
The sheep exhibit was very good
both in breeding and fat classes. The
same quality held in the horse class
with practically every breed on dis
play.
The crowds at the show were larger
than ever before, Mr.. Dobson says,
and thoroughly appreciative. Every
one felt happy over the fact that foot
and mouth disease had been eliminat-
&c, and to the credit of the manage
ment be it said that every effort was
made to keep the exhibition as clean
and neat as new pin.
'The International has come back
bigger and better than ever" said Mr.
DObson.

MUST BUILD SPUR TO MINES

Monday Of last week the railroad
commission ordered the North West
ern road to build a spur into the zinc
region from Strawbridge in the ex-
IRENE southwestern corner of LaFay-
cite county to the Skinner rooster, a
distance of two and two-tenths miles.
The road will be used by the Wiscon-
sin Zinc, Vinegar Hill Zinc, and the
Mineral Point Zine companies. The
petitioners were ordered to deposit
$4,000 with which to repay the rail
way company for the spur track.
The track will pass through tun-
mel and over several streams of water.
The Wisconsin Zinc company is re-
quired to pay seven-eIevenths of the
track and the Vinegar Hill Zinc com
pany and the Mineral Point Zinc com
pany each two-eIevenths of the cost

cow TESTING ASSOCIATIONS.

The COW testing association idea
does not flourish among Grant county
farmers. Will some one tell us why?
Other counties are going ahead with
it and making large gains from it.
Are we farmers so everlastingly
smarter than other folk that we do
not need the help this test brings
1T can hardly be. One Waupaca
county dairyman, after a years ex-
perience in the association, reorganiz-
ed his herd by selling off the poor COWS
and buying better COWS so that in
stead of getting $35 a month from II
COWS he got $11O a month from ten
COWS. Don't you think that just such
examples could not be worked up in

The Guilty Stool.

The Guilty stool was the seat of re-
pentance formerly employed in the
Scottish church for the exposure Of
offenders against the moral law. The
transgressor, having been deprived of
church ordinances and duly taken to
task privately, was then compelled to
make public acknowledgment of the
misdeed prior to being restored to
favor. Each culprit did penance by
occupying tie Guilty stool in the pres
ence of the whole congregation and
was openly lectured by the minister on
the enormity Of the offense

No one seems to have heard of Mills

credit for being a wonderful actor He

called '"The Edge of the Abyss" next
Friday evening. Mills is so good that
everyone should see him.
