ROAD BOOSTERS MEET
PLAN TO EXTEND INDIAN HEAD
TRAIL THROUGH TO ST. PAUL
VIA LA CROSSE.
(Platteville Journal.)

The officers of the Indian Head Trail
met with the good road enthusiasts
of Platteville, Cuba City and Hazel
Green in the Platteville city hall last
Fricay afternoon.
The Indian Head Trail at present
extends from Peoria to Galena. 1t is
the only north and south road in the
Mississippi valley. It was first the
intention of those having the road
in charge to stop at Dubuque, Iowa,
but much better plan is to extend
the road to st. Paul and Minneapolis
via La Crosse.
John Acker, president, w. P. Hank
er, vice president w. F. Miller, secre-
tary, and W. T. Scheder, treasurer, all
serve without any salaries and even
pay their own expenses.
Each community through which the
trail passes is asked to mark and
keep up its portion of the road
DIR. Her was asked to select com
mittee from Platteville, Cuba City and
Hazel Green to consider the matter
and take it up with the Indian Trail
association.

Thrills Of Early Day Wild West Roundup"
Experienced In Getting This Herd to Market

The POlZskill Brothers, we'll known
stockmen Of Mineral Point, purchased
a carload of cattle from James McGil-
ligan of Dodgeville recently. The cat
tie are we'll known TO every stockbuy-
er of that community, because of their
incorrigibility.
The Anderson Brothers, of the town
of Dodgeville, raised them. Within the
last year this herd has been purchas-
ed six times but each time the buyers
failed to get them to the stOckyards.
The cattle have been pastured on a
wooded tract of land and have never
been handled but left to run at large
Whenever buyers attempted to drive
them they have become frightened by
the strange surroundings and fed in
all directions. One attempt was
made by Samuel Dickinson to drive
them at night, but with no avail.
Some weeks ago James McGilligan,
with force of men undertook to drive
them to the yards. For the first half
mile they went without trouble but
when the widest of the steers sight
of the road fence, he became enraged
and made straight for the opposite
fence and tore through five barbed
wires as though they were paper. The
rest of them followed and caused a
real western stampede. After running
through several such fences they fin
ally stopped in the barnyard at the
Anderson farm. The men tried to
drive them again but the performance
was repeated and the drivers gave up
the task.
One day last week, Polzskill Bros,
John, Peter and Chris, who have the
reputation of being the best herders
in that section, accompanied by Joe
and Henry GRADER, Joe Mari and Fred
Gulner of Mineral Point; John and
Chris Anderson and Charles and Henry
PAUL of Dodgeville, mounted horses
and started to drive the cattle from the
Anderson farm to the Polzskill farm
in Mineral Point.
Some COWS more domesticated We're
taken to help keep the others quiet.
When they had gone about 200 yards
from the farm, the widest of the
steers became frightened and broke
through the fence near the John Gren-
fell farm and ran east through Cox S
Hollow to the Edward Williams farm.
The rest of them followed the leaders.
The men being unable to keep up
with the cattle on their mad dash
through fences and over rocks and
brush, were obliged to telephone the
neighboring farmers in order to To-
cate them.
The second attempt proved more
successful. This time, with the aid
of other men who gathered to watch
the excitement, they were able to get
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1916-12-27

a few Of them into the stockyards at
the depot. The other ten still mad
dened and frightened ran east of the
Williams farm to Bunker Hill.
Tuesday morning the men succeeded
in getting nine of the outlaws back to
the Anderson farm, but one still re-
mains at large somewhere near Arena.
Still determined to bring the steers
to the stockyards, the men procured
an abundance of strong ropes and tied
three steers together and with the aid
of few more volunteers, they were
safely driven to the yards This
scheme having worked out very we'll
the determined drivers went out and
brought in the balance Of them in the
same way.
The cattle are Of good quality, but
the owners were unable to get the best
prices for them because Of the uncer-
tainty of getting them to market
The cattle will be shipped to Chi
cago as hopes of getting them to the
Polzski farm was abandoned.-Dod

BLOOMINGTON REC0RD BRIEFS

WIile working in the woods in
Blaka Hollow, Robert Bohringer was
thrown to the ground in such man
ner as to dislocate his shoulder and
bruis~ his body considerably. He is
about. but is quite lame.
Mrs Eulalla Abraham fell on the
side walk near her home Saturday
evening and fractured bone in her
left arm The walk was slippery be-
cause many of the children had been
sliding down it, and the accident is a
good indication that sliding down
walks should be prohibited.
Many of the young folks have been
enjoying skating on the ice ponds the
past few days. Skating adds much
to the enjoyment of winter. Years
ago when the mill dam extended
across the valley opposite Thos McNa-
mara's barn there was great skating
and nearly all the young people en-
joyed it.
The harvest of the first crop of ice
is on this week. There is about a
foot Of nice clear hickory ice Vern
Brookens' pond is so much larger than
usual that the saving of one crop will
be almost enough to fill the icehouse.
Woodhouse Bros. & Clegg have large
pond in the Hickok pasture which
they are cutting. The liability of the
creek to overflow on the first day Of
mild weather keeps the ice men On
the anxious seat until the crop is out
of the creek.
The last two summers there has
been a hive of bees under a floor in
the old house on the VIM. Pohle farm,
and last Friday, as it was too cold %
work outside, Elmer, Harley and Ora
Pohle took up the floor to get the hon
ey. Well, they got just IT'S lbs. of
honey-a pretty good Christmas pres
