ARM BROKEN IN RUNAWAY

When his dray team ran away
on Miner-av Monday noon, T. F.
Slattery was thrown from the wagon
and severely injured, one wheel pass
ing over his body. His left arm was
broken at the wrist and he was
bruised about the body.
A loose bride which dropped about
the feet of one of the horses was
the cause of the runaway. The team
dashed along the street from the
Rusk county bank corner and the
strain on the remaining bride
swerved them into the curbing in
front of Ellingboe's furniture store.
The side of the wagon struck the
rear of Mr.. Ellingboe's automobile
Which was parked there and smashed
the body and tenders. The car
was dragged several feet by the
horses before they stopped.

SAYS VICE is RAMPANT HERE

That vice conditions in Ladysmith
are in a most deplorable state, was
the announcement made Tuesday by
man in public office whose position
as a city official places him in the
capacity of knowing the status Of So
cial conditions as they exist here,
but who, for obvious reasons, wishes
his name withheld from publication.
"The tendency to criminality
among the youth of the city is as
founding" the speaker said. ''Con-
ditions that exist here would never
be tolerated in other communities
and the per centage rate of immor.
ality here is higher than in cities
twice as large as Ladysmith. The
people move complacently along and
scandal after scandal occurs with.
out arousing them from their normal
condition.
"Of course, the home is the lead
| ing factor that should exert it's power
In keeping boys and girls from going
astray, but the Discipline Of the home
is often lax and fails as an antidote
| for the evil. In the end it would be
of immeasurable value if a bureau
for the social betterment Of the city
could be established, and the indus

PREPARE FOR RAILROAD TIE UP

Owing to the present crisis be-
tween the railroads and organized
railroad labor Isaac Perry has been
refused the shipment of a carload
of cattle to northern Michigan be-
cause of the impending tie-up Lo-
cal officials of the 500 Line told
Mr.. Perry that the cattle would not
reach their destination before Mon
day, the day set for the country
wide strike.
Commission men and merchants
of the city are optimistic regarding
the effect locally of prolonged
strike. They state that the surround.
ing farm communities could supply
the city with foodstuffs to tide over
the period of shortage, but that there
would be scarcity of flour, feed
and fruits. Cream buyers would be
forced to discontinue business be-
cause of the lack of shipping facili-
ties.

GETS SPLENDID GUERNSEY HERD
! Helm Farm Purchases Some Fine
| Pure-Bred Stock From
| Chelsea Breeder

Rusk county now boasts of one of
the best pure-bred Guernsey herds
in northern Wisconsin. County
Representative Householder went to
Chelsea last Sunday and returned
Monday with a splendid herd of
pure-bred Guernseys, which had been
purchased by the Helm farm of Tony
some time ago. The herd includes
seven cows and mature bull. They
were purchased from Mr. Allen, of
Chelsea, who was forced to retire
from farming on account of poor
health. Mr.. Allen has spent many
years in building up the blood lines
Of this herd and has spared neither
pains or money in bringing together
the best blood in the herd. The
herd bull is undoubtedly one of the
best individuals that the breed has
lever produced. He weighs close to
a ton and has the qualities of great
sire. Mr.. Allen paid $4,000 for him
as a calf to the Grass Land Farms
in Connecticut. The cows will all
freshen during the fall and early
winter and Mr.. Helm plans to place
the entire herd upon test for ad-
vanced registry. In conversation with
Mr.. John Helm, the county represen-
tative was informed that Rusk
county farmers will be given the first
option upon the young stock that is
produced by this great herd. This
means a great step forward in Rusk
county dairying, as it will eliminate
the necessity of sending great dis
tances and allowing some foreign
breeder do our selecting for us.
Mr.. Householder secured a young
sire from this same herd which
will be shipped to his home in
Richland county after being ex-
hibited over the fair circuit during
next month.

selfish interests of the moneyed few
and who are bending every effort tC
gain the whip hand over the rank
and file of the masses.
"The claim that La Toilette is
dislOyal to his party and it's princi-
pies is true. only in the sense that
he allows the rights of the people,
whom he represents and whom he
is in duty bound to- serve as his
conscience points the way, take
precedence over party views"
The speaker reviewed La Follette's
public life, particularly his battles
in congress; his successful fight fol
the abolition of the party caucus, the
passing of thhe primary law, the di

PUNISH YOUNG LAW BREAKERS
Three Lads Draw Jail Sentences,
Two for Sixty Days, In Justice
Reeves Court

Juvenile law-breakers kept the
wheels of justice in Judge Reeves
court busily turning for a couple OF
days during the early part of the
week. On Saturday Andy Tuppe1
and Leslie Gillen were arraigned on
a charge of theft from the premises
OF Ohlf Hornbeck's property near
Shaw dam. A watch and several ar.
ticles of minor worth were alleged
to have been taken. Because of Gil
lens past record he was sentenced
to 60 days in the county Jail. Tupper

RUSk COUNTY TRAINING SCHOOL
WILL BEGIN ITS TENTH
YEAR
MORE MEN TEACHERS ARE NEEDED
Many Excellent Positions Open To
Those Who Have the QuaIifica-
tions of Good In
structcr

The session of the RuSk County
Training School will begin Monday,
September fourth. The teachers are:
B. Mack Dresden, principal; Miss
Parfrey, Assistant; Miss Crow, SUI
pervisor of Practice. 1t is hoped
that the attendance will be large.
The value of such an institution as
teachers training school cannot be
overestimated for the schools of a
county. The country child is en-
titled to every whit as good an edu-
cational opportunity as the city
child. This means trained teachers.
The training of teachers for city
differs, however, very widely from
that required for teachers of country
schools. The standards and require
ments of rural schools are necessa-
rily different from those of city
schools. AS result a different kind
of training is required. The train
ing school was organized to give
this training.
Experience has shown that gradu-
ates of normal schools and of the
university do not go back to the ru-
raj schools to teach. To prevent in
experienced and uneducated boys and
girls from becoming teachers of our
country schools the training school
was organized. In the nine years of
its existence in this county it has
amply proven it's value. There are
many young people in the county,
especially in the country districts,
Who would make excellent teachers
for the schools of this county. 1t is
for these that this school was or
ganized and it's invitation is issued
to them to enroll.
If you have the proper qualifica-
tiOns and are in earnest in your
desire to prepare yourself for teach
Ing, this school can help you and is
anxious to do so. The principal of
the school or the county superintend-
ent will be glad to talk it over with
you. If you cannot come to see lis,
write us and we will be glad to write
you or, if necessary, come to see
you. An especially hearty invitation
is issued to the young men of the
county. We need more men teach

CLOSE OF SEASON
LADYSMITH GUN CLUB ENDS
WORK FOR THIS YEAR WITH
GOOD SCORES
EXPECT STRONG CLUB NEXT YEAR
Great Increase Of Interest Mani
tested In This Sport. Fine
Trophies Presented

After a successful season at the
traps the Ladysmith Gun Clut
closed their season Sunday last with
some exceptional good scores an6
marked improvement over the be
ginning of the season.
The club is composed of twenty
members, all of whom are beg1nn.
ers except one and the scores made
by these men are very gOOd. LII
another year Ladysmith can be
proud of having one of the best
clubs in the United States. There
are now over 1000 of such organlza-
tions. The club was attended by
over fifty shooters this season, which
manifests a large interest in the
sport in this county. In another
year the club hopes to more than
double it's present membership.
Trap shooting being a new sport
in this county had a tendency to
limit the clubs membership, but al
ready new shooters are beginning to
look forward to the 1917 season and
pledging themselves to join.
The traps are located at the fair
grounds and cost in the neighborhood
of $50, all being paid for. The shoot
ing this summer having netted the
club over $50 will operate to re
duce the price of membership which
was $3.50 to a small amount that will
be within the reach of everybody.
The Dupont Powder Co. has done
much toward the success of this
club, having presented them with
three beautiful trophies which were
competed for and have already
sent beautiful silver loving cup for
next season.
The Dead Shot Powder Co. also
presented the club with a solid gold
stick pin. Besides, many other tro-
phies which were presented by in
dividuals and by the gun club have
made much interest among the
shooters.
Next season there will be many
more good trophies to shoot for and
the club is in hopes that all the
business men and many others will
join before the opening of the next
season.
The score for the season is as
