to the injury of the farmers,

OF the Under wood tariff law we
imported 100000 bushels of
corn and 400, 100000 pounds OF
beef, most of it from the Argent.
ina, where land values are only
half those in the United States,
and labor costs only halt as much.
He asserted that freight rates
from Argentine to the United
States are less than halt the rate
Nebraska to the Atlantic sea-
board. Government owned ships
he feared, would further injure
American farmers by carrying
other Argentine products to our
markets at low rates.

FIRE0N SUNDAY

The quietness of Sunday afternoon
was disturbed by the alarm of fire
when it was discovered that Chris
Thompson's barn was afre. Most of
the Fire company of both sides of the
river were being entertained by ex-
Mayor Cohen at his clup house up riv-
er to chicken chowder. This was dis
turbed and some of the company came
back to put out the flames and return
ed to the banquet. The fire was prob
ably started from a smoldering bon
fire nearby famed by the rising south
west wind. 1t was but a short time
before the entire barn was afame and
consequently wholly destroyed by fire.
The Fire Companies kept the fire from
spreading to adjacent buildings. The
barn was an old one and therefore not
a great loss.

New York, Sept. s. Uncle Sans
submarine hunters are going into &C.
ton today.
The navy's protectors against I'M
derwater Warcraft, consisting mainly
of motor boats of great speed, manned
by volunteer seamen who own the
boats, will have their first real test
since their organization, when they
are put through their PAGES under the
eyes of government officers.
Maneuever, which will end Septem-
Der II, will be held off Boston, New
port, New York, and the Delaware
capes. The senior naval officer present
at each point will be in charge.
Probably the most interesting feat
ure of the cruise will come on the third
day, and will consist of maneuvers in
mine sweeping, communications, de-
Tense if battleships and protection of
harbors from attacks by submarines.
Groups will leave their respective
bases early in the morning and will
proceed IN the district to which thew
have been assigned to search for mines
When mine is located it will be re-
moved and the search will proceed un-
til all have been located and loaded
onto the boats.
On the fourth day the patrol boats
will assemble with the battleships
which have been assigned to take part
IN the maneuvers, and will form a
screen to protect the big vessels from
attacks by submarines.
This part of the United States feet
is being recognized as one of the most
important since the advent of the SUBJ
marine as formidable weapon of Of
tense in the European war. Recently
trials were held with the United States
patrol boats and they succeeded in
theoretically destroying United
States submarine after it had SUBJ
merged in plain view of them.
Numerous wealthy citizens have Of
dered boats specially designed to be
turned over to the government in case
of war and many of these will be seen
IN the maneuvers which begin today.

POINT
BOOSTERS HERE
The Stevens Point Band and 100 Bu-
siness Men Here On Labor Day

About ten o'clock a. m. on Monday,
Labor Day, twenty automobiles load
ed with jolly good-natured Stevens
Point business men arrived in our city
coming through Junction City and Ru-
dolph where they made short stops
They entered our city from the west
and were cordially received at the Elks
Club House. The band played live
ly piece in front of the Club House,
where large number of our business
meen greeted them. Mayor E. W. Ell
lis was present and gave them a cor
dial welcome in his usual friendly and
cordial way, which was appropriately
responded to by Mayor Walters of Ste
vens Point.
After the addresses everybody was
informal and repaired inside the Club
House, where water and musk melons
were served and a good social half
hour was spent. After an hours stay
in our city where greetings were ex-
changed they proceeded to Kellner
and thence to Plainfeld, where they
expect to have dinner. This short
visit in Grand Rapids was greatly ap
preciated by all our business men. The
purpose of this trip was to boost for
the Stevens Point Fair, good roads,
and incidently for an acquaintance
with the trade interests about their
city. They are jolly good bunch and
we hope they will come again when
they can stay little longer

QUANTITY
III HIN

Many housewives make vital mis-
take in choosing some Of their food
stuffs on the basis of quantity.
1t has been proven time and again
that the cheapest is always the most
expensive, while the highest price is
not always the best.
There's happy medium in every
thing. When you select foods, be care
full. Don't choose any particular brand
of, say Baking Powder for example,
just because you get a big can for a
small price.
The risk you take in running your
entire baking and losing the cost OF
the materials involved is not anywhere
equal to the small amount saved on the
price of the Baking Powder
Then again, because the price is
high, don't think the quality is the
best. Some women do, and they are
losing money.
Look for the happy medium. You'll
find it. Choose a brand that costs a
moderate price and you'll find it more
economical to buy and more economi-
cal to use.
The best baking powder in the
world can be made so as to sell for
25c per 1 ID.

SECOND ANNUAL
GRAND RAPIDS
DAY
Preparations Being Hade For a Big
Time on September 18th.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)


1t was decided at the Business
Mems meeting last night to hold the
second annual Grand Rapids day on
Tuesday, September 10Th. The same
committee was appointed that acted
last year and they are: Chairman, J..
R. Raglan, Chas. Kruger, Chas. Nash.
George Warren, R. F. Matthews and
w. F. Gleue. They will appoint sub
committees to look after details.
1t will be remembered that last year
everybody enjoyed Grand Rapids day
and it proved to be a great success.
A large number of visitors were in the
city and they certainly all enjoyed
the day.
The second annual will be none the
less attractive. Every farmer within
radius of % miles is requested to
come to Grand Rapids on Tuesday,
September. 26th with his family and
all he is asked to bring is a lunch so
they will have enough to eat. Hot
coffee will be served all day at the
Amusement Hall headquarters. The
Grand Rapids Band will furnish music
all day. The Ideal and Palace thea
tres will be open afternoon and even
ing with excellent programs and they
will be free to all visitors. A gala day
is promised and the days program will
close with free dance. The business
men of Grand Rapids are anxious to
get better acquainted with the people
who trade in Grand Rapids. They
want the people to come into the city,
get acquainted and spend the day as
their guests. Everything will be free
and open. A cordial welcome is ex-
tended to all

Bonds for New Bridge.

1t is our opinion that the freehold
ers of Grand Rapids will vote for
bonds to raise money for new bridge
if the bridge is to be erected above the
present bridge somewhere in the vic
nifty Of the Witter hotel, but they
would vote down any other PROPOSE
ton. They will favor the up keep of
the present bridge as long as it serves
its purpose. Some day they will be
obliged to build a new bridge to take
the place of the present wagon bridge,
but that time is many years hence. A
little expense applied each year will
keep this present bridge serviceable
for many years.
A new bridge is needed to care for
the street railway if it is ever to cross
the Wisconsin river at this point We
need a new bridge to relieve the pres
ent congested condition on Vine street
on the east end of the present bridge.
We need new bridge to relieve the
congested condition on the present
bridge during the busy part of tn
day
We have faith that any State Com
mission that may come here and look
over the situation will decide that the
present bridge is not adequate to care
for the increasing traffic. We know
they will decide that it cannot care
for the street railway because that
kind of bridge is not constructed fol
street railway traffic, therefore they
will decide that the conditions here
need a new bridge They will decide
that if a new bridge is necessary the
greater need of the people of Crane
Rapids requires that the new bridge
should be located farther up the river
SO as to accommodate the greater par
of the population of the city and di
vide the traffic This is the only con
cIusion any one can arrive at if they
have the best interests of all the PEG
pie at heart. Give US a new bridge
and locate it above the Witter hotel
Keep the present bridge in good re
pair and it will last for 20 years yet

FIREMEN
ENTERTAINED

Ex-Mayor J. A Cohen continued
his liberal entertainment at his Club
House Sunday afternoon by entertain
ing the members of the Fire Compan-
les to chicken chowder la Messrs.
E. A. Andrews chef and L. J. Gazely
cookee. About twenty enjoyed the
day as guests Of Mr.. Cohen and those
who have enjoyed his hospitality speak
of it in the highest terms. We hope
the Ex-Mayor will not forget the
members of the Press before the sea-
son is over. Perhaps he is planning
to give them a Christmas present up
there and give them some hot stuff
as chicken would be too tame. How
ever, we are glad that the ex-Mayor
has found it possible to add pleasure
to so many of his friends. Such
changes are agreeable to the regular
grind.
