Get West Point Chance.

Three members of the Wisconsin
National Guard have been recon-
mended for West Point, where they
will have an opportunity to become
officers in the regular army. The men
selected will be examined at Fort
Sheridan on June 6.
Following are the men named and
the regiment they represent:
Leverett Yonder, Whitewater, corp
oral, Company c, First infantry.
Alfred w. Pingel, Appleton, corpo-
raj, Company G. Second infantry.
Alexander L. Nicol, Sparta, SER
geant, Company L, Third infantry.
If the men pass the examinations
at Fort Sheridan they will enter West
Point this fall and it is expected that
each year the three regiments will
have an opportunity to send a man to
the military academy.

WISCONSIN MILITIA
MAY Be MADE OVER
New Army Bill Probably Make
Changes Necessary.
TO ADD TWO NEW REGIMENTS
Increase Would Mean Promotions fer
Many Officers-Guess as to What
Territory Will Be Tapped
Arnories Are Needed.

Madison.-If the National Guard is
increased to 425,000, Wisconsin will
have at least two more regiments.
While nothing has been given out
from the adjutant generals office, 1t
appears certain that if that increase
IS made the Wisconsin Guard will
be entirely reorganized, so that reg
iments can be concentrated in more
Of unit than they now are.
The increase will mean promotion
for many officers. Two more regi-
ments means ten new field colonies
and majors, meaning that ten captains
will be promoted.
What territory will be tapped to
provide for the increase is a gamble.
1t is probable that, wherever large
Iarmories exist and there is belief that
lanother company can be raised, steps
Twill be taken for an increase.
v Oshkosh, with 33,062, now has two
companies, and probably will draw the
supply company in addition. Fond du
Lac, with 1877, has one company and
probably will be given another. The
same may happen with Sheboygan,
with a population of 26,398. IN the
Third Superior, with a population OF
40,384, now has an infantry and sup
ply company, but should be able to
take care Of another infantry com
Iany. Madison has 1881 and has
one company, a band staff.
Other places large enough to sup
port companies are: Amigo, 1886;
Baraboo, 1924; Grand Rapids, 6,521;
Kenosha, 21,371; Merrill, $3.50; South
Milwaukee, 6,O92; Stevens Point, 8,
G92; Watertown, 1892; Waukesha, 8,
74O; West Allis, 6,645; Depere, AIT
If all these places were taken in, il
appears that Milwaukee will have tC
be called on for complete regiment
OF infantry instead Of five companies
Racine and Green Bay are to have
batteries and each place should be
large enough to have an infantry com
pany in addition.
On the other hand, part of WiscOn
sins increase may be some branch OF
the service other than infantry, and
that will make a difference in the 10
cation of the new organizations. Any
increase in cavalry will probably be
in Milwaukee, where experienced of
ficers can be obtained from Troop A

Salary Saving Effected.

Further evidence of the effort Of
Governor Philips administration so
to correlate the business of the state
as to reduce expenses and improve
the service is shown il the announce
ment that the force Of inspectors Of
Illuminating oil is to be reduced from
SO to 81.
The districts which will be abol-
ished, with the territory added to adj
joining districts, follow: Nos. 5, 6,
II, II, 10, 10, 20, %, q, so, 33, 43, As,
AZ, 40, 55, 81, SIS, SO and 62. The sal
aries paid inspectors in the last fiscal
year aggregated s49,S7755. Under the
new arrangement the salaries will be
not above $4,000. Because the terri
tories will be larger, however, the ex-
penses viii be increased from $4,000
to $1,000, so that the net saving will
be between $4,000 and $4,000.

Valuable SeaWeeds.

Through experiments with seaweeds
In Nova Scotia it is found that they
are rich in potash and possess a con-
siderable quantity Of nitrogen and
phosphoric acid. Seaweeds in their
natural state have long been used by
farmers of Nova Scotia for manurial
purposes, and the fact that they read
lily decompose when spread upon the
ground seems to enhance their value
as a possible commercial. fertilizer.

Button Scheme Is Lottery.

The selling of lapel buttons by a
committee of 100 business men of Mil
waukee for the promotion of the state
fair, each button to bear a number,
the lucky holder getting an automo-
bile, was unfavorably passed upon by
Attorney General Owen.
The plan was submitted by Secre-
tary o. E. Remey to the attorney gen.
erals Office for an opinion. The at
torney general says that if lotteries
are prohibited among individuals, the
commonwealth should not become a
party to such an enterprise.

Elliot Cowdin has just been awarded
the military medal, the highest war
time distinction Of France, in recognl-
ton Of his valor and aerial efficiency
displayed in bringing to earth his third
enemy aeroplane. Mr.. Ccwdin is q
member of the American aeroplane
squadron. He destroyed his second
German aircraft over Verdun a few
weeks ago, adding a second palmleaf
to the croix de guerre earned nearly
year ago. Recently Cowdin was aloft
about 5000 feet when he found himself
face to face with a German Fokker.
Although his adyersary's machine was
far more powerful than Cowdins s, the
young New Yorker instantly attacked
and destroyed it.
