RUNAWAY TEAM
DASHES into CAR

At Ree1sburg Thursday evening q
runaway team ran into the auto of DR..
F. P DAILY and badly damaged the ma
chine The doctor and his little son
we're cut on the faceby broken glass
from the shield, 1t seems that the
team started near the depot by becom-
ing frightened at freight train. They
ran north of Walnut street and when
on the north side of Main street cole
ided with the auto and jumped on the
fender with such force as to back the
car over half block. DR.. Daly, who
was in the front seat, held one of the
horses up 80 that it would not fall over
on him. When the doctor saw the
team coming he threw his little son in
the back seat which probably saved it's
life. That they escaped death is almost
a miracle as the doctor was pinned il
the front seat and could not move until
the horses were released. Strange to
say that neither horse was injured. The
machine was badly damaged.

new FOX RANCH Fur
NEIGHBOnING CITY
Articles of Incorporation
Have Been Filed For an
Organization of a
New Fox Ranch at
Reedsburg
ReedSburg

Articles of incorporation have been
filed with the register of deeds for the
organization of The wisconsin Silver
Black Fox Co. located at Reedsburg.
The capital stock is $50, 900 This is the
second venture of this kind at Reeds
burg conducted by S. j. Collins, the
Fox Man. Some years ago a firm was
organized on a smaller scale, which
has been on paying basis. Mr.. Collins
has had several years of experience in
Canada in this line of work having had
an interest in an extensive concern at
Prince Edward Island The business and
purpose of this organization is to buy
and sell foxes and engage in breeding
of foxes for commercial purposes.
Fox rsnching is good legitimate
business at the present time, and is
now established upon solid CONNER
cial basis Furs are a staple article of
trade. The price fuctuates as does
every other commodity, but the ten
dency is always upward The Silver
black fox is superior cnimal and
pair sells for good figure for breeding
purposes. Following are some of the
Reedsburg prices;
Class A silver black-$4000 per pair
Class B silver bIack-3000 per pair
Cross foxes 80 per cent black-$80O
per pair.
Cross foxes rs per cent black-$6OO
per pair.
The new fox ranch comprises ten
acres near the city of Reedsburg. The
domestication of the silver black fox
was not matter of chance. Some men
with al idea. brought it to pass, with
patient, intelligent work. The foxes
are mated in pairs and for life, the
breeding life of the fox being from
nine to twelve years. The litter aver
ages one pair to q pair. There is re-
cord of nine pups born to year old
pair of ranch bred silver black foxes
The law Of averages is always at work
and high records over long period
are seldom maintained, although in
dividual females have reared fifty
pups in their life time.

our kno Wedge of the situation where
this deplorable accident occurred pre-
sents these facts:
The location is within the boundaries
! of the Devils Lake State Park.
The right-of of the sChicago and
Northwestern Railroad Company en-
braces all of the land between the shore
line of the Lakeland the Granite Bluff.
This situation extends from the point
, near the location of the old Cliff house
TO practically the station at Devils
Lake.
In great many places the railroad
tracks occupy every available foot of
space between the bluff and the water.
rhe fact that the region is state
park will constantly invite people IN
increasing numbers to this locality.
There will be constantly increasing
number of persons who desire to get
from the north end Of the lake to the
depot station and bach.
transportation by water is not al
ways available, nor desired and hum
an nature is 30 constituted that it will
assume the danger and risk of tres
passing upon railroad tracks, which
are more dangerous in this Llocality
than usual because OF the number of
sharp curves between the two points
above mentioned; in fact, the track is
so curved that an engineer cannot see
but cry short distance ahead of his
engine between these two points.
Certainly, the Railroad Company
neither welcomes trespassing up ITS
tracks, nor desires to kill people. Ger
tainly, no engineer can wish for such
catastrophe.
We earnestly urge upon yourself, the
district attorney, or such other person
or pereons for immediate duty of sub
mitting the dangerous situation there
existing to the State Park Board, to
the Railroad Commission and TO the
OFFICIALS of the Northwestern Rail
road Company, to the end that the re-
cent accident may not be repeated.
We respectfully suggest that Ethe
bodies above named should cooperate
in eome way 20 establish walk of s'lffi-
cient width. and properly rallied between
these two points so that the lives of
people may not be jeopardized by the
danger of walking upon the railroad
tracks.
We believe it is unfair to the genera
public to invite them to park and
furnish them no means Of travel be-
tween these two points, except at the
risk of life, and We cannot help but
believe that the state officials and the
railroad company will both be glad to
cooperate, this situation being called
TO their attention, to the end that
suitable walk, properly protected, will
be constructed along this side Of the
axe between these two points.
We suggest, also, the erection of
numerous and emphatic signs warning
people to keep on the walk and away
from the tracks of the railroad comp
aly.
Respectfully submitted,

DAlRYING ON BUSINESS BASIS
Farmers Must Use Milk Scales, Tester and Record Book-keep Account
 With Each Cow.

In order to put dairying upon a busi- ness basis every farmer needs to use the milk scales, the tester and the rec ord book. Farmers must come to this proposition and do little simple book keeping to know where they are. Every successful business man has a ledger to guide him iii his transac- tions.
 Every dairyman needs to enter separate account with each of his COWS so that he may have an indicator to tell him at the end of the year just how much feed each has consumed, the amount of milk produced and the percentage it tests.
 Too many farmers of this country are still keeping scrub COWS, feeding and milking them twice each day, fourteen times each week and sixty times each month.

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, SO evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and trouble some. For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use tonic called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" You just dampen Q sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your nair, taking one small strand at time By morn- ing all gray hair disappears. and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant.

former milking. This makes it imper- ative that the millIer be well cared for.
 The milk separator should receive no more careful cleansing than the milker. After milking it is a good plan to dip the teat cups in cool water and allow the machine to pump water through the tubes. All parts should be scrubbed with brush and washing soda and then rinsed. The metal parts may be well sterilized with steam and the rubber parts kept suspended in a solution of II pounds of salt and five ounces of chloride of lime in 10 gal Ions of water. The solution will have to be changed every week, and it is well to put in an extra ounce of chlo- ride of lime every other day.
 When proper care is taken, extreme ly clean milk can be gotten with the milkers, some dairymen producing certified milk with them, but on the other hand, if no care is taken to Keep the machine clean it will prove to be a collector of dirt.
