Answer-Patrick Henry of Virginia.
QuestiOn-What part did George
Washington play in the Revolutionary

Answer-He played in the band.
Question-What were the relations
of Capt John Smith to the Indians?

Keen Good Work Coino.

A young man was being examined by
a Delaware county exemption board
as to his qualifications to serve as a
soldier, says the Indianapolis News.
"Any dependents?" he was asked.
yep, lots of en- was his answer.
"Name them-tell who they are" a
board member suggested.
''Lawse, man, I can't name them all"
said the one examined. They're all my
wife's relatives. They've been depend
in on me ever since / was married"
'Unless you are more specific than
that we cannot see any ground for eX-
emption,' he was advised by the board.
"Who said wanted to be exempted?
I want them still to be dependents,
but want them to be dependent upon
themselves"
After little further investigation of
his case he was accepted.

Apple Growers Warned of Law.

The state department of agriculture
has just prepared Circular No. 6, Civ
ing the rules and regulations to be OBJ
served in packing apples under the
new Wisconsin apple grading law.
The new law requires that all Wis
consin apples sold in closed packages
from this time or be packed in grades
and these era les be stamped on the
box, together with the owners name
and address.
A heavy 1ine is provided for mis-
branding a barrel or for misrepresent-
ing the content by putting the good
fruit on the top of the barrel. The
law has resulted in great benefit to
both grower and consumer in states
where it has been in force for some
time. The consumer who wants a
good article has found that he can now
buy homes grown fruit and be sure that
it is what it is represented TO be,
while on the other hand, the grower
finds a better market for a good, hon
est product than formerly because 1t
does not have to compete with other
barrels in which all the good fruit is
on the top layers.
The state department of agriculture
Is planning to help the growers take
advantage of this law. If grower
files request in advance, an inspector
will be sent out to help him get start
ed grading and packing correctly. All
growers and dealers should send for
the circular and familiarize themselves
with the new requirements before the
apple harvest comes on.

STATE POLITICIAN
CALLED BY DEATH
NEAL BROWN, WELL KNOWN
DEMOCRAT, VICTIM OF
HEART TROUBLE.
OTHER WISCONSIN DOINGS
Items of interest Throughout the State
Gathered by Alert Correspondents
and BuIietined in Brief for
the Busy Reader.

Wausau-Neal Brown, one of Wis
consin's prominent Democratic leaders
and businessmen, died in Watkins, N.
Y, where he had gone in hope of re-
gaining his health. 1t is believed here
that IN acute attack of heart trouble,
with which Mr.. Brown had been suf-

Brown had long been prominent in
Wisconsin's politics. He was dele

elected to the state senate when his
term in the lower house had expired.
Mr.. Brown was born in Hebron, JEFF

there until 1880 when he removed to
Wausau, where he had made his
home. He was graduated from the
state university in 1880 and engaged
in the practice of law when he became
interested in politics. Mr. Brown had
not been active in politics of late

PROVISIONS OF NEW
WORKMAN'S LAW
Benefits to Injured Are Increased
Ten Per Cent by
Changes.
EMPLOYERS PAY FOR BURIAL
Compensation Recoverable in Cases of
Total Disability Is Materially In
creased Farmers Not
Subject to Law.

Madison.-The provisions of the new
wOrkInen'S compensation law passed
by the last legislature have gone into
effect and apply to all industrial ac-
cidents that occur in Wisconsin. The
new law materially increases the
benefits to injured workmen; the in
crease having been estimated by the
legislative committed which reported
the measure as approximately 10 per
cent
The most important items in this
increase are the notifications in the
schedule of fixed benefits, which mate
rally lengthen periods of disability
for all specific injuries involving am
putatiOns.
The new law also increases the
compensation recoverable in cases OF
permanent total disability to workmen
IN the prime of life. Hitherto indem-
nifty for permanent total disability has
been limited to six times the annual
wage, regardless of the age of the in
jnFed workman. Hereafter, the maxi
mum indemnity which wOrkmen under
tiirty-twO years of age may recover,
If they are permanently totally dis
abled, is a fraction less than ten times
the annual wage which sum is reduced
in accordance with regular schedule
for workmen totally disabled later IN
life.
Another provision in the new law,
increasing the compensation benefits,
is that which requires the employer to
pay burial expenses not to exceed $lOO
in all death cases. The law also lib
eTalizes the provision regarding med
zeal aid, permitting the industrial COM
mission TO extend medical aid beyond
80 days after the injury, where such
an arrangement is expected to result
IA a shortening of the period of dis
ability.
Still another provision of the new
act gives increased compensation in
cases of multiple injuries; where
wOrkmen sustain more than one
specific injury in a single accident, as
when several fingers are cut off. In
such cases the compensation hereafter
will not be merely the sum OF the
compensation due for each injury, but
also an additional amount for the null
tiple character of the injury.
AS heretofore, however, farmers are
not subject to the act unless they
specifically accept its provisions. The
same arrangement is also made in the
new law as regards policemen and
firemen.
A further provision extending the
scope of the compensation act is that
which provides that all subordinate
officers of the state and its political
subdivisions are to be covered by its
terms, as well as all other employees
who have hitherto been subject to the
law.
A new feature is introduced by the
provision that triple compensation
shall be paid to children of permit age
who are injured while working with
0ift child labor permits, or while en-
gagged at prohibited employments.

Reform in Birth Registration.


Tests as to the completeness OF
conducted by federal Investigators be-
fore the year is over. Upon the result
will depend Wisconsin's admission to
the birth registration area, established
in 1915 and now, with the recent adj
mission of Maryland, Virginia and
Kentucky, embracing Ii states and the
District of Columbia. Tests are being
made in Indiana and New Jersey, and
later this year will be begun in Wis
consin, North Carolina, Ohio and
Utah.
In one county in this state the neg
lect of physicians and midwives to re-
cord birth certificates has become so
widespread and has lowered the coun-
tvs birth rate to such an extent that
unless there is early reform prosecu-
tons will be begun after October /.
Proof of willful failure to file in other
in arrests.
/ The Importance of birth registration
is greatly enhanced by the war.
Every day the Wisconsin state board
of health has been asked for atfidavitS
of birth registry by many young men
on the border line of the draft, and by
persons close to the age required for
permits under the child labor law.
The county registers of deeds are be-
ing besieged in the same way. One
physician has became so aroused
that he reported to the local registrar
$50 births which had occurred in his
practice since 1900.
