The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1916-10-06
ALI the Time Reaching for Trade.

The fall and winter buying season is
on, and nobody knows it better than
the catalog houses. Almost every mail
brings in their advertising matter by
the wagon load, and if there is anybody
in this neck of the woods who has not
received a sufficient supply of catalogs
to paper the house and half of the barn,
if he is so disposed, he must be an OBJ
scure citizen indeed. The mail order
houses are after the buyers and after
them hard. They do not content them
selves with the statement that st does
not pay to advertise" On the contrary
they are demonstrating by the use of
millions of money that it does pay to
advertise. The high cost of paper does
not seem to hamper their great catalog
campaigns, and even though the rise in
paper prices may double and treble the
price of their advertising, they send
them out just as unsparingly as they
did before paper was increased in price.
The local merchant has the medium of
his home paper in which to meet this
form of competition 1t is the day of
advertising, and every local merchant
should realize the fact. Probably any
one of the big mail order houses in Chi
cago spends more money in advertising
to reach the people of this county than
all the local merchants put together.
They would not continue to so adver-
tise unless it paid. The local merchant
cannot spend so large an amount for
advertising and he does not need to.
The local paper gives him far cheaper
system than the mail order house can
obtain. Elk.

Team Killed by Lightning.

Sam Hermanson, who lives four miles
northeast of Lodi on the sand road, had
a narrow escape from death Tuesday
afternoon, when a storm, evidently the
remnants Of the tornado, reached his
place. He was in field blowing. To
escape the storm that seemed imminent
he was about to unhitch his horses
when they were struck by lightning
and dropped dead Hermanson was
also struck, and fell. He had only just
called to his hired man, a son of Ener
Larson, who was working with team
in another part of the field, and Larson
turned just in time to see his employer
fall. He rushed to him and thought he
was dead He ran for help, and DR..
Groves was summoned from Lodi. BY
the time young Larson could get back
to the field with his father and Ed Her
manson, brother of the injured man,
Sam had recovered his senses sufficient
ly to enable him to help himself to a
sitting position. He was carried to the
house. One shoe was completely torn
from the foot, his legs were quite badly
burned and one eye injured, but it is
thought he will recover fully. = Lodi

Fire Prevention Day.

Gov. Philip has by proclamation
designated October 9th, the anniver-
sary of the great Chicago fire, as fire
day. Cognizant of the fact
that the fire loss of the state is per-
haps its greatest waste, and that annu-
ally quite a number of children and
adults are burned to death in our state,
he thinks it worth while, that not only
the schools, but officials and citizens
generally spend the day in studying
the causes of this waste of life and
property and in using active efforts to
remove those causes as far as possible.
The fire marshal recommends to the
citizens generally a thorough cleaning
up of all combustible materials and
rubbish in yards, alleys, area-ways,
cellars and cellar entries, storerooms,
attics, sheds and barns; and further to
inspect every stove and stovepipe,
every furnace, smoke-f1ue and chimney
to see that these are sound, clean and
safely installed. Intelligent effort
along these two lines will remove many
causes of fire and contribute to saving
both the property and lives of his fell
low citizens.
The local health officer also is inter
ested in clean conditions as a proven
tion of infantile paralysis and other
contagious diseases, and he will nc
doubt be willing to accompany one OF
the fire department inspectors on his
rounds.

The attempt is now being made to
tell the farmers of the west about the
blessings of the rural credits system,
which New England farmers showed so
little interest in and appreciation of.
The Boston Herald says that the sys-
TEN would have little more value for
the west than it had for the east. The
farmers in both have been able to find
credit through the ordinary agencies if
they had the security which the new
system requires. 1t is in the south,
the Herald says, where the new system
may be welcome and perhaps work.
''The farmers of the SOUTH" it says,
forgetting all their party traditions of
states rights, are calling more and
more vociferously for the national gov
eminent to take care of them and their
staple crop, and to save them from
their lack of enterprise and industry.
In that region the wandering rural
credits board m.y get the cordial well
come that it longs for.

Club Notes.

The Monday Club was pleasantly en-
tertained Monday afternoon at the
home of Mrs Arthur Clarke. After
lengthy business session the program
was opened with the presidents greet
ing, in which she spoke strongly of the
work for the coming year, both FEEDER
alton and Individual club. This was
followed by piano solo and encore
played by Mrs. Holt. Mrs. Roy Hop
kins gave the "Seven Joys of Reading"
by Mary Wright Plummer. Mrs. Far
man gave very interesting talk and
explanation of the program and work
for the year. At the close the hostess
invited the club to tea. 1t was more
than tea tho, and dainty and delicious.

AN EIGHT hour law, an eight hour
law: a work day of eight hours-lots
of people are ''hollering stheir heads
off, for it. But let us look around
little. What would an eight hour law
do to the farmers, who average four
teen hours day, who never have an
idle moment from early dawn till dusk,
who have to be up and doing before the
sun peeps over the horizon and keep it
up all day till the last dog dies at night?
How would the crops be put in, how
would they be cultivated and cared for,
how would they be garnered ii an eight
hour applied to farmers? Verify, there
wouldn't be much doing, and the nation
would arrive at the starvation point IN
side of year. There would be moth
ing to eat. 1t was only few years
ago that we had the agitation for the
present ten hour day. Now it IS eight.
How long will it be before the clamor
is for six? And then four, and then
perhaps two? To carry out the idea to
its logical conclusion, why not get down
to no working hours at all; cut out the
work entirely? Then the millennium
will be here. Fennimore Times.

THE annual report OF the Milwaukee
road shows that the year ending June
80 had been one of the best in the his
tory of the road. The gross earnings
were S1O5, GAG, 483. 70, an increase of al
most SIS, OO0,0 600 over last year, while
the net operating revenue was $50, 525,-
526. II, an increase of more than S7,000,-
900 over last year. The operating ex-
penses of $50, 100, 957 81 were about
So. 900, 900 larger than last year. The
big increase in the earnings is the re-
suit of the great prosperity in the
northwest during the twelve months
ending June 80. The large wheat crop
in 1916 helped to swell the total, but
the increase in general freight was also
large.

Baths of DiocIetian.

1t is said that when the baths of
Diocletian were in operation they must
have accommodated not fewer than
5000 bathers at a time. With some
of the emperors bathing seems to have
been a sort of fad, as they expended
vast sums in the erection of lighthouses
and bathing apparatus. Diocletian,
however, does not depend entirely on
the baths for his place in history. He
became emperor in 284 A. d. and abb
dicated in sos. Two years before his
abdication he became very active in
prosecuting Christians, so much so
that in the annals of martyrdom his
reign is alluded to as 1.-The Diocletian
era It is said that the Diocletian
baths were built by Christians, 10000
of them being compelled to do the
work.

ACCORDING to official statements it
cost the people of Wisconsin nearly a
half million dollars to hold primary
election. This year there were over
1000 precinct in the state and the citi-
zens are supposed to gather to the
number of nearly million to express
their preference of the various candi-
dates. In fact less than $780, 900 exer-
-cised the privilege. To conduct the
election it required the services ofsome
Ia, 900 election officials, an army near
ly three times as large as the Wiscon-
sin state militia -Viroqua Censor.

WE MUST be getting rich faster than
we knew of when the state tax COM
mission setting at Madison can arbi-
trarily boost the assessment of Rock
seventeen million over the fig
ures set by the local assessors, who are
on the ground and far better familiar
with values. The tax commission
makes this valuation for levy of state
taxes only, but it indicates they are
there to get money.
