WISCONSIN WINTERS
AND BIG CROPS
If We Didn't Have the One We
Wouldn't Have the Other.

Now is the time we are inclined to
listen with more than usual willingness
to the talk about the "balmy southern
climes," where it never gets cold
and almost wish we were there.
But they have weevils and ticks
down there and we don't want them.
We don't have these pests because it
gets cold In the winter.
Down there the soil tends continually
to compact and the plants have to live
on the soil above the plowline-or TO
help the plants they use subsoil plow
to loosen the earth to lower depth.
1t costs money to do that and even the
plants are not well fed. We don't have
to do that because the frosts ofthe
winters loosen the soil Ia greatdeptn.
There is no doubt that the winter
freezes in Wisconsin account IN
large measure for our large crops.
There are other effects OF the cold
weather in producing big cropa thai
we will not stop to discuss.

WINTER TONIC FREE

Take plenty of the right kind of
winter tonic and you will have little
need of the time honored spring tonic
of your grandmother day
7 The best kind of winter tonic comes
in the guise of out-of-door winter
sports for the principal ingredients in
the tonic are fresh air, exercise and
/ iogousness of spirit. Having a good
] time in the right environment is
great health giver. So get your
skates, your toboggan or your bob,
dress warmly and lightly and use your
/ leisure to make the wind, the cold and
snow your friends and allies instead
of hiding away from them as much as
possible and thus turning them into
enemies to be feared Don't let the
children have monopoly on the fun
the youngsters and convince your
selves that you are not too old to have
good time with them. 1t will be a
good thing for your health and for
the nealLn OF your IdmtIy.
The city of Madison has done fine
thing in setting aside half dozen or
more of it's hills for coasting and Civ
ing them police protection Teams and
automobiles must lake other thorough
I fares and the coasters have the right
of way. Lagoons are turned into
skating rinks and out-of-door recre-
alton is being encouraged. Other Wis
consin cities, where the natural right
of the boy and the girl to use the hills
for sport has been stolen away bit by
example. 1t is much less inexpensive
than providing playground equipment
for the summer time and much more
necessary. Finding opportunity for
fun is comparatively easy in warm
weather. 1t is different thing in
I winter and the city which has the
real welfare of it's people at heart will
make sure that winter Fairgrounds,
such as protected hills and skating
i ponds are available.
Country people, who are more for
tunate in the undisputed possessions
of hills which have not yet been trans
formed into travelled roads and of
countless ponds for skating need to
wake up to the health giving value as
well as the fun which lies in these too
often neglected resources. Time spent
in getting health is not time wasted
and there is no better way of getting
health than by combining exercise and
pleasure and mixing them thoroughly
with fresh air. Don't let the bracing
quality of the winter air go to waste.
Make it your own, build up your
resistance power, and get yourself in
to such physical condition that grippe
and colds will hesitate to tackle you.
1t can be done and there's great fun
to be had in the doing.

ALFALFA IN SIXTY COUNTIES.

Sixty Wisconsin counties have
enough alfalfa to appear in the final
issue of the state agricultural report
for 1915. 1t is probable that alfalfa is
now being grown In every county of
the state The avesage of the state
is given as 81 tons per acre. As much
OF the acreage is new seeding this is
very encouraging average. In feed
value it is equal to four tons of clover
or ten tons of timothy. Whe can afford
not to grow alfalfa? Who that is not
now growing it can afford 80 delay
another year? Oornfalfa farms see it to
their advantage to grow 200 acres.
Let's get busy in the matter, increase
our acreage more rapidly-and do it
right.

THE NEW YEAR
Will the New Year bring Peace?

Will the New Year bring Peace?
Peace in Europe will be the greatest
gift the new year can bring TO the
world. The armies of the Allies and
Teutons have been locked IN battle so
long that the world has become almost
callous. Every day we have read in
the news dispatches accounts of hor-
ribie fighting. Today forty thousand
men were wiped out Yesterday whole
battalions were decimated. The day
before thousands of men were caught
in trap and killed. Reports state
that Germany's list of killed totals
over 1000, 900 Beautiful cities and
priceless works of art have been raZed.
Helpless women and children haye
been driven by the enemy from their
homes and starved or thrown on the
mercy of the charitable No longer
are we affected by the horror of these
dispatches. Our minds nave refused
to grasp the tremendousness of it and
We read the war news with hardly
more of a thrill than we get from a
sensational murder. Recent dispatches
from Europe have emphasized the
peace note. German socialists, ap-
parently, are demanding that some
thing be done to end the slaughter.
Austria likewise is ready for peace
in all nroha htlitU has been for some
time. 1t is not unlikely that France
and England, despite their assertions
to the contrary, would be amenable II
proper terms could be obtained. The
neutral world is crying for peace. Will
the New Year bring it? Nineteen six
teen will hold much for the United
States in the way of prosperity and
progress.

COLD STORAGE EGGS
BEST BUT COST MORE

1t does not pay to preserve eggs for
sale.
That is the conclusion of James q.
Halpin of the poultry department at
the University of Wisconsin, who has
tried about every known preservative
method. He firmly believes that
preserved eggs went out of fashion
when cold storage came in and regards
the latter method as more efficient and
cheaper.
Eggs can be kept in cold storage IN
better condition than is possible in
waterglass, lime, or any other pre-
servative known TO us, he says. Pre-
served eggs are not good for table use
for anyone who is at ali particular.
Families may find it to their ad-
vantage to preserve few eggs during
the season Of plenty to be used for
cooking purposes during the season OF
scarcity. A few eggs can be put down
in the home in this way and used up
very nicely, but it viii meyer pay to
preserve eggs commercially. Pre-
served eggs are well known to tine
trade and are easily detected by sandl-

that he simply must marry the
simpering old woman to eXtri-
cate himself from his unbearable
p sition.
At this interesting moment a
telegram announcing the death
Of the yonng mans uncle and
the fact that he has inherited
the uncle's fortune, a fortune
that is tied up in a chewing gum
enterprise. Almost simultane.
ously. however, a second tele-
gram arrives. 1t is from the
the chewing gum trust, and it
offers Broadway" a million dol
lars if he would sell out his new
ly inh erited business.
At the suggestion of his
friend, the young man journeys
to the little town where his
chewing gum factory is located.
He makes the trip to assure him
self that the offer he has receiv-
ed from the trust is fair propo-
sition. And whed he arrives in
the little village he discovers
that the trust has been fighting
for years to crush the industry,
which, because Of the excellent
quality of the Jones Pepsin
Gum" has made the smaller con
Germ an annoying rival of the
big corporation. Broadway"
also discovers that if he sells out,
his factory will be closed down,
thousands of men and children
will be thrown out Of employ
ment, and the little village will
be dealt staggering blow.
Partly because of these facts,
but mainly because he is spurred
to action by the courageous at
titude of his uncle's pretty secre-
tary. who is in reality at the
head of the business. young
Jones suddenly decides that he
will turn down the offer he has
received, continue the operation
of the business, and fight the
trusts.

Cohan's Funniest Play

Broadway Jones' is inquest

as his best example of dramatic

an appeal which no American
audience can resist. 1t is writ
ten around the character of a
reckless young spendthrift who
lives at a rate of sixty thousand
dollars a year, Notwithstanding
the fact that he is absolutely
penniless, and because his credi-
tors think he is immensely
wealthy but careless about mon
ey matters.
The story begins at 4 O'Clock
in the morning when Broad
way as young Jones is called
by his associates because of his
love Tor the night life of New

apartments from a supper that
lasted well into the small hours,
and at which he had announced

by the story of the engagement
published in all of the morning
papers, arrives and demands an
explanation. broadway stands

PREPARING A DAIRY HEIFER
Kindness and Gentle Handling VIII
Remedy Kicking Habit-Halter-
break While Young.

You must have foresight in prepar-
ing the dairy heifer for her first milk
ing period. If you handle the udder
and teats so as to develop the udder,
doing this st least twice a week for
six or eight weeks before calving, the
heifer will then be quiet and gentle
and will not be afraid when her udder
is touched after she has calved. Also
her udder will be developed so that it
will almost resemble cows udder.
1t is natural for the COW to stand
while being MIXED, consequently the
heifer knows nothing about kicking
until hurt or frightened into it. 1t is
good plan to halterbreak a heifer
when she is young, always being care
full not to hurt or brighten her. If by
accident anything should be done to
cause the heifer to kick it is not the

CLEANLINESS OF THE CHURN
Rinsina Out With Warm Water Will
Remove Amy Particles of Butter
milk Remaining in Wood.

After the butter is taken from the
ehurn, the latter should be rinsed out
with warm water, and the rinsing fol-
lowed by a thorough washing with
very hot water. The rinsing out with
warm water will remove any butter
milk which may remain in the pores of
the wood. The hot water will remove
any fat which may be left in the
churn.
1t is never well to use soap powders
on the interior of the churn, but the
occasional use of a small amount of
dairy washing powder or lime water is
beneficial. To keep the churn sweet
and free from odors and taints a small
handful of lime placed in some water
in the churn or in the last rinsing of
the churn is very effective. 1t is very
essential in good butter making to see
that all apparatus used is absolutely
clean and free from undesirable odcrs
and taints, as these are quickly ab-
sorbed by the butter.

list, and was not accepted. He then
tried Germany, who. quickly realizing
the importance Of the weapon, asked
for the sole right TO use and manufac-
ture the gun, but was refused Next
he tried England. The British gov
eminent consented to the sale of the
guns to her allies, but at that time
would not guarantee to purchase all
that Colonel Lewis could manufac-
ture, so he went to Belgium, where
he was given orders without restric-
tons. Final delivery was only twenty
days before the European war broke
out. The Belgians were the only sol
diers having the Lewis guns. The
English army is being supplied from
the Birmingham factory. France will
receive the gun in large quantities
as soon as the new Etienne plant is
ready.

Silos should be located close to the

ing to the Oregon agricultural college

They should not be inside the barn
since they take UP a good deal of

that will faint the milk.
They would also be inconvenient to
fill, and silos should be where they
may most readily be refilled
