HIGH School Annual.

The senior class is this year planning
to issue an Annual. This will be new
movement for the local school, but one
which is valuable advertising feature,
and which, if it can be done, will indl-.
cate a splendid attitude and spirit, both
in school and in the community. In the
past monthly paper has been issued,
but interest in such publication drops.l
Several hundred of high school pupils
have already signified their desire to
purchase an-Annual.
In the past the monthly was made
possible largely through the advertis-
ing given it by the local merchants,
and the advertisers always felt we'll re-
paid for the money expended. On
Monday of next week the business
managers Of this years Annual will
begin to secure ads. The sympathy
and cooperation of the business men
of Edgerton in the past toward the
meritorious undertakings of the local
schools indicate that this year their
support will be given to the issuing Of
an Annual.
The community will await with very
much interest the appearance OF Ed
gerton's first High School Annual.

Gasoline Still Going Up.

They tell us the increased war and
home demand for gasoline together
with the closing of the normal supply
from Russia and the Galician oil fields
is given as the reason for the steady
price increase. Kerosene has also been
advanced. While the war lasts, only
the discovery of new fields of oil will
check the rise in prices, SO they say.
Gas sold as high as II cents in 1913 but
declined due to improved methods of
treating crude oil and also to the open
ing up of new district in Oklahoma.
But jump of over 100 per cent in the
past two months is what touches the
pocketbook of every automobile owner.

Evansville Loses Prominent Citizen.


Hon. Allen S. Baker, president of the
Baker Mfg. Co., died at his home in
Evansville Sunday night as result of
complications which started with re-
cent attack of the grippe. He was the
only remaining member of the firm
who organized the Baker Co., the prin-
cipal industry of that city His par
ents were among the early pioneers of
Wisconsin, settling near Evansville in
1910, where Mr. Baker was born Jan.
IL, 1912.
In early years Mr.. Baker served an
apprenticeship to the trade of black
smith and that trade was his occupa-
ton for several years. When the civil
war broke out he was one of the first
to respond to his country's call for
troops to crush out the rebellion. On
April 20, 1861, he became member of
Company H., End Wisconsin Volunteer
Infantry, which regiment formed a
part of the famous Iron Brigade, and
in that gallant command he served in
several of the most important battles
of the war, receiving two severe
wounds.
In 1873 the Baker Manufacturing Co.
was organized under the firm name of
A. S. Baker & Co. They began with a
capital stock of $4,000 which has been
increased to the present capitalization
of one million dollars. Mr.. Baker has
had the management of the company's
business until recent years, when he
was succeeded by his son, J. S. Baker,
A. s. Baker being president of the
company.
Mr.. Baker and Miss Margaret Sayers
were married March Is, 1865. She was
born in the historic battlefield of Bran
dywine, Del, October, 1914, and was a
daughter of John and Sarah (Reed)
Savers. Three children blessed the
union of Mr.. and Mrs. Baker, all of
whom survive: Mrs. Elsie Hartley,
John S. Baker, both of Evansville, and
Mrs. Bessie Biglow of Rockford. Mrs.
Baker died about two years ago.
Mr.. Baker was one of the represent
alive business men of Rock county, and
an enterprising and progressive citizen
! of Evansville, in the welfare of which
he ha1 taken the greatest interest.
| On February 18th he was to have
given an address during the Wisconsin
commercial and industrial congress
which is to be held at the university
Feb. l4-1S, explaining the Baker Mfg.
Co. plan of profit sharing, which has
attracted worldwide attention.

There is considerable talk of or
ganizing canning factory in Edgerton
which might easily be housed in one of
the buildings owned by the Wagon Co.
Wisconsin has forged ahead so rapidly
in recent years that it stands at the
head of the list in the pea canning in
dustry, while the business has proven
profitable to all we'll managed concerns
Such an enterprise, however, requires
the cooperation of the farming COM
munity who grow the raw material and
participate in the profits. If the farm
ers within a reasonable distance from
town will take the trouble to investi-
gate this matter and show willingness
to help build up market for their pro-
duce, it is quite possible canning in
dustry may be added to our city.
