WISCONSIN LEADS THEM ALL
Awarded Worlds Prize at In
ternationaI Exposition.

Madison - The high bred and i'm
proved grains, dairy and farm products
of Wisconsin have again shown their
superiority to all others at the interna-
tional soil products exposition held at
Peoria, Ill.
AS result Wisconsin, for the tenth
successive time, won the worlds cham
pionship on barley, competing with
the best barley sections of the United
States and Canada The winning SAM
pie was exhibited by William Bell, OF
Arlington.
Wisconsin also won first on spring
and winter wheat in competition with
the great wheat states of the West.
This is a reminder that Wisconsin
once led in wheat, and indicates what
it can do when it again places empha-
sis on this crop. The samples submit
ted were presented by H. E. Kruger,
of Beaver Dam.
The fact that Wisconsin is one of
the two greatest potato states in the
Union, and probably first in quality
and standard varieties, was recognized
by five first and three second on SIX
leading varieties in worlds competi-
ton. Samples were submitted by f..
S. Campbell, of Three Lakes and H.
L. Brooks, of Tomahawk.
Wisconsin won first on clover seed,
field peas, blue-joint, second on timo-
thy, sweet clover, orchard grass and
Durham wheat

NEW BRAND OF PUNISHMENT
Group of Badger, Soldiers at Waco
Sent te Bed at Three in the Aft
ernoon for Getting Up Late.

Camp Macarthur, Waco, TeX.-Here
is a new brand of discipline sending
grown up, wide awake soldiers to bed
at 8 o'clock in the afternoon. 1t hap
pened recently to a group of Badgers
in the 128th infantry.
Reveille is blown at $50 a. M, and
ten minutes later assembly is sound
ed, which means that every man must
be up, dressed, and standing in line
with his company.
This little group of sleepyheads
failed to report for assembly, so the
company captain sent them to bed at
p. m. for nap of ten minutes. Then
the assembly call was blown and the
men hoped out of bed and dressed
with the speed they should have shown
in the morning.
1t was new brand of punishment
in the middle of the afternoon, with
the Texas sun beating down on the
tents of Camp Macarthur. 1t was no
time for a nap, and it is good bet
that these men will not invite sim
liar experience.
Hotel Hobbies are crowded with Wis
consin people who are here to visit
the soldiers. The city resembles
great convention, with the Badger
state generously represented at all
social occasions. The wives of Wis
consin officers are planning the or
ganization of a Wisconsin club. Off
GERS have rented apartments for their
families, but men in uniform are not
permitted to spend much time away
from camp. Conferences in the after
noon and night schools take up most
of their time No officer is permitted
to live down town.

GOOD MONEY IN CLAM SHELLS
Many Claiming Camps Being Estab-
Ished Near Berlin and Diggers
Realize from $38 to $40 Ton.

Berlin-This locality is developing
into a greater clam center day by day.
A score or more of claiming camps
have been established along the shores
of the Fox river, between a sector of
a mile or two up and down from Hur-
on street bridge.
Quarrymen, drillers and even block
makers have gone into the clam fish
ing game. An incentive in clam fish
ing is the present high price of shells.
No fewer than half dozen represen-
tatives of button factories are in the
city from time to time to buy them.
Shells are selling from $38 to $40 a
ton. The meat from the shells is used
for the table,

URGES FOOD CONSERVATION
Phillip in Speech at Green County's
Annual Cheese Day Asks All
People to Aid Government.

Monroe - Gov. E. L. Phillip, who
spoke here at Green county's annual
cheese day observance, urged the con-
servation of food as well as the pur-
chase of Liberty bonds by the people.
The governor was accompanied by
Secretary of State Merlin Hull. He
was introduced by Assemblyman F..
A. SCHNEIDER.
The governor pointed out that since
the government had entered the war,
it had assumed great responsibilities
and that it was the duty of the people
to aid the government.
Several thousand people took part
in the celebration despite the inclem-
ent weather. Sixteen drums of Swiss
cheese cut up to make $4,000 sand
wiches were distributed to those at
tending. An industrial parade, with
many decorated floats, was the feature
of the celebration.

WISCONSIN BOYS
ARE GOOD H|KERS
MARCHING ABILITY SURPRISE
TO REGULARS AT CAMP
MAC ARTHUR
OUTLINE TRAINING FEATURES
Period to Last at Least Four Months
and Program to Be of Pro-
gressive Nature Troops
Are Physically Fit.

Camp Macarthur, Waco, Tex.-Regu,
Arthur marvel at the superior march
ing OF Wisconsin troops. When the
Badgers arrived here, Gen. James
Parker pointed out that part of the
weekly program would be a ten or
twelve mile hike on Saturday, but he
through hardening process it might
be well to cut the hikes short. Gen.
Boardman remarked that the WiscOn-
sin men had gone through stiff
marching program at Camp Douglas
and that ten or twelve miles over the
roads of Texas would not be severe
task for them.
Gen. Parker had no idea that the
guardsmen were so far advanced in
the work, and he took special interest
in them the first few days as they
came back into camp after hours Of
hiking in the burning sun of Texas,
singing and whistling as gaily as if
they had just walked around the cor
ner. Gen. Parker liked this display
of physical fitness.
Much has been written concerning
the patriotism of different states.
Wherever one goes one is impressed
by the fact that in this war, as in all
other wars, Wisconsin is among the
first to respond. The national guard
came here recruited to war strength.
In some cases companies had too
many men. Important features in the
war training of troops at Camp Mac
Arthur have been definitely outlined.
The period of intensive training will
be at least four months and the pro-
gram will be. of progressive nature,
beginning with the more simple phases
of the war game and leading up to
hand grenade throwing, bomb throw
ing, gas warfare. sniping and other up
to-date methods of fighting.

TWO ENGINEERS
KILLED IN WRECK
MEET DEATH IN HEAD-ON COL
LiSloN BETWEEN PASSENGER
s TRAINS ON 500 LINE.
WERE LONG TIME IN SERVICE
Crew of Waiting Passenger Watch
Fast Train Bear Down Upon
Them-SeveraI Passengers and
Fireman Are Injured.

Fond du Lac-When a fast paSSen-
ger train on the 500 line crashed
headon into another standing passen-
ger train near the main switch at the
Stockton station, both engineers were
instantly killed and several other per-
sons injured.
The dead are: James McAdams,
Fond du Lac, engineer on No. 3, 81
years old; Richard Harrison, Ashland,
engineer on No. 4, SIS years old.
The injured are: Mrs. Ole Chris
Jensen, Stevens Point, internal inju-
ries; Carl Geidel, Fond du Lac, fire.
man on No. 8, fracture of arm.
Thinking it would be brought to a
stop before it reached them, the mem
bers of the crew of No. 4, at the Stock
ton station, watched No. 3 tear down
upon them.
Engineer McAdams evidently
thought the standing train to be on a
siding and continued his flying run I'M
til he realized the danger. Brakes
were of no avail. The screech of slid
ing steel, crash and the kissing of
steam left a mass of damned and
twisted iron, in the wreckage of which
two veterans of the service persisted.
Under ordinary schedule the trains
are to meet at Stevens Point, but ac-
cording to reports, No. being late,
No. was permitted to proceed and
was waiting at the Stockton station
when No. bore down upon it.
No responsibility for the collision
has been placed and officials are with
holding all statements pending thor
ough investigation into the matter.
