Upper Counties.

of the University of Wisconsin is now
operating it's secOrd land clearing dem
onstration train. The present tour will
cover ten counties in upper Wisconsin
along the line of. the Minneapolis, st.
Pau and Sault Sainte Marie railroad
the $500" line. The schedule calls for
stops to be made at IA points, one
day demonstration being made ut each
place.
The object Of this tour, in which the
college Of agriculture is cooperating
with manufacturers of land clearing
machinery and explosives is to demon
strate easier, quicker and better ways
OF clearing logged-off and cut-over land
than have been in use in the past.
The first tour, which was made last
spring, was productive of good results
and it is expected that this trip will
produce as great benefits. Settlers and
business men in the territory have vol
unteered to aid in making the tour q
success.
The schedule has been so arranged
that if it is Impossible for any reason
to hold a demonstration on the day set,
1t can be given on the following day.
The itinerary for the entire tour was
announced by the college of agricul-
ture as follows:

Expects Troops Home Soon.


Judging from the latest orders
received at the adjutant generals
office from the federal war de-
partment, rehabilitation of the state
troops now on the border will start
shortly after the return of the Wiscon-
sin and Illinois regiments from the 10
mile hike from San Antonio to Austin
and return on October 5. Orders have
Eeen received calling for a change from
the individuals discharge method used
in the National Guard to a muster-out
by company. This is taken as an inhi-
cation that the troops will shortly be
recalled.
Il think that the Wisconsin regi-
mentS will return to the state within
ten days after the return from the Aus
tin hike" said Gen. Orlando Holway.
EITHER this, or they will stay in the
South all winter. Most of the troops
are from the northern states and de-
mobilization in the winter months
would require at least ten days at the
state camps. Few of the states have
facilities to care for the men at the
camps during cold weather"

HAWKS RESPONSIBLE

The scarcity Of grouse and pheas-

destruction by hawks is the belief OF

who is in town today. Tonkin hears
reports that many hunters are kllllnR
numbers of hawks. Tonhn advises
that it would pay the hunters to waste
few rounds Of ammunition on these
bird destroyers despite the high cost
of ammunition.
Ton crates of Chinese pheasants
have been received by Tonkin from
the state fish and game commission
during the past week and were hner-
ated I'm the county. At one place
where two crates were freed the hawks
swooped down upon the pheasants as
soon as they were turned from the

More Joy (?) Juice

Last week Thursday evening, as Geo.
Hathley and wife were returning to
their home from Montrose, and when
about two and one-half miles this side
of that place, they were ran into by an
auto party and their buggy was demol-
ished. The men in the auto, who Mr..
Hathley says had evidently been imbjb-
ing too freely, narrowly escaped serious
injury, as their machine ran down a
high bank into a tree and overturned,
being pretty thoroughly wrecked The
men themselves escaped with a few
minor bruises and promptly settled
with Mr.. Hathley for the damage they
had done to his rig. AS we have fire.
quently pointed out, the booze business
would not be so bad if its i'll effects
could be confined to the ones that use
it, but this in the very nature of things
cannot be so. The sober and industri-
Gus and valuable citizen has his safety
and the safety of his property endan-
gered daily by the exploits of the
boozers. The first principles of human
rights are found in the pursuit of life,
liberty and happiness, every detail Of
which now is and always has been in
vaded by the booze business.
