Feeds Sold in State
Are of Better Grade

Feeds offered for sale in Wisconsin
have shown marked improvement in
quality since the enactment Of the law
regulating their sale.
Because the enactment and enforce
ment of the law has made it necessary
for feeds to be sold strictly on their
merits, honest manufacturers have
been enabled to sell high-grade goods
without having to meet dishonest COM
petition.
Manufacturers, dealers and consum-
ers, realizing the advantages of such
laws, have given their hearty co-opera-
ton and it is largely through their sup
port that the operation Of the law has
been made effective.
That buyers of and dealers in feeds
in Wisconsin are becoming more and
more discriminating in the purchase of
feed is shown by the increasing number
and character of inquiries received by
the state feed inspection service.
A bulletin giving many interesting
facts for feed buyers can be obtained
by Wisconsin farmers by writing tc
the agricultural experiment station.

BADGER SOLDIERS
WOULD CONE HOME
Are Tired of the Arduous Camp
Life on Blazing Border.
AT SEA ON LENGTH OF STAY
Some Think They Will Return Within
Month and Others Expect to
Remain in Texas Two
Years.

San Antonio, Textile Badger sol
diers on the border are getting home
sick. At least many Of them are get
ting mighty anxious to get back home.
The long drills in the blazing hot sun
and the other arduous duties of camp
life are beginning to pail on the citizen
soldiers. 1t seems to the men that
when the sun is not shining fercely
down upon the camp they are wading
around in a sea of mud as result of
heavy rains. The weather has seemed
to hit one of the two extremes all the
time since the soldiers reached the
border.
But the men, anxious as they are to
get home, are at sea as to how long
they will be kept here. Some think
they will go home within a month";
while others believe they will remain
here for year or even two years. The
announcement made by the war de-
partment that college students who are
members of the Wisconsin cOntingents
will be discharged SO that they may
resume their studies when school
starts is believed to indicate that there
is no intention of sending the main
body Of the troops home at any time
in the near future. There are many
students in the Madison and Whitewa-
ter companies who will be affected by
this new order.

Soldiers Rich For a Time.

The members of the Wisconsin regi-
ments in camp here have been rich for
the past few days. They had their
first payday and each man drew al
least So for eleven days service. It
wGG the first payday the troops had
had since they arrived at the border
and they were ready for tin fact
they had ben ready for it for some
time.
Few of the soldiers kept any consid
cradle part of their five dollars for
any length of time. The First regi
ment canteen got the most of it. A
short time after payday had come and
gone the men were ready for the next
one, but it will be long time before
the ghost walks again.
Medical officers have taken hand
in the management of the canteen and
have issued orders that no watermel-
ons shall be sold to the men. They
also have placed a limit on the
amount of ice cream that can be sold
to one man, the limit being one dish
These restrictions have been made in
order to keep the soldiers in fit cOndi-
ton.

TREATED WELL IN TRENCHES
Adventures Resented Arrest When
They Returned From Period Of
"Fun" at the Front.

Mr.. Norman Wilkinson tells this
story In his book, '"The Dardanelles."
I had the story from a naval officer
whose duties lay on shore. He was
outside his dugout one afternoon
when two men in strange raiment
passed. Their gait and the fact that
both wore navy fannels told him at
once that they were bluejacks. Anx-
ious to know what they were doing
there, he stopped and questioned
them.
"Where are you going?"
"Motor-lighter X, sir"
"Do you belong theRe?"
Eyes, sir"
"Then what are you doing here"
"Well, sir" hesitating, "we've just
been up to the trenches"
"Were you sent there with orders?"
"Er-no, sir"
"How long have you been up thereT
"'Ow long, sir?" Then to his COM
panion. "When was it we went up,
Bill" Then to captain, 81 should say
about four days, sir"
Finally the captain ordered them I'M
der arrest down to a picket boat ia
which he was about to visit the flag
ship. On the way out the captain
heard the two adventNers discussing
their detention with some bitterness,
always ending with the same refrain,
''Fine thing, ths-under arrest. And
they treat you like a gentleman in the
trenches-treat you like a gentleman,
I say"
1t is difficult to imagine the point
of view of men running away to get
into the trenches and leaving them
with regret.-Youth's Companion.

Divided on Food Criticism.

The camp has not settled down en-
tirely afrtr the furry caused by the
action Of Private Albright Of Company
l, First Wisconsin infantry, of Nee
nah, who signed a protest which was
sent to Senator La Toilette against
the food served to the soldiers.
The men have been somewhat di-
vided in their opinion as to the mat
ter and some of the soldiers have
made a martyr out of Private Al
bright. Others have criticized Al
bright for his action and declared that
the food served the soldiers is as good
as could be expected.
When Albright was fined 81 and or
dered under arrest for "a hours as a
punishment for his act, some of his
fellow soldiers took up collection,
and his dinner as prisoner consisted
of porterhouse steak, French fried po-
tatOes, bread with butter, and other
delicacies, including jam and beer
The corporal on guard objected, say
ing that a prisoner under guard
should not be better fed than other
soldiers, and the meal was not al
lowed to be repeated.

Agriculture must be not only perma-
nent to be safe; productive to be ade-
Quate; profitable to be possible; but it
must also be comfortable to those who
engage in it. I urge you, therefore to
equip your farms with comfortable
homes wherein American citizenship
may be safely born and reared to prop
er standards of living and proper con-
ceptiOns of civilized society.
The country as a whole, and munich
pal life IN particular, needs the inf1u-
ence of cultivated country people, who
depend upon themselves and not upon
others for their prosperity. The farm

litical pull. He draws his living from

1t Pays to Remember

THAT the most important
) part of any farm work is plan
ming it intelligently.
; THAT cow fed only on
weather-beaten cornstalks, or
dry wire-grass, will give very
little milk.
THAT balky horse is always
for sale.
THAT farm tools rust out
) more than they wear out.
THAT trees grow while we
; are sleeping.
THAT paint costs less than
; new buildings.
THAT it is better to pay a
good price for good seed than to
use poor seed which costs but
little.
THAT a crop which is well
planted is half made.
THAT a poor soil must be
made fertile before it can be
) made profitable.
THAT our garden is the most
; profitable acre on the farm.
THAT it costs less to save
stable manure than to buy COM
mercial fertilizers.
THAT the most valuable in
gredient of any commercial fer
tilizer is the intelligence used in
) it's purchase.
THAT If our farm is not as
productive as that of our next
neighbor it is largely our own
) fault.
THAT we can do more in a
year when we work ten hours
daily than when we try to work
eighteen hours.
THAT it pays best to sell as
soon as we can get good price.
THAT we do not lose any
thing when we take day to go
fishing after we have had long
spell of close work.
THAT we can always get an
extra price when we have any
thing extra good to sell.
THAT it is less expensive to
grow feed than to buy it.
THAT birds kill more insects
than can be killed by spraying.
THAT it is a lot easier to run
up store account than it is to
pay it.
THAT a mortgage on the farm
is likely to cause a blight on the
crops.
THAT the most successful
farmers are those who give
most attention to agricultural
papers, and the station bulle-
tins.-S. e. Elliott.
