BUYS FLOODED sHORTHORNS
Proprietor of Oak Lawn Stock Farm
Purchases Ten Head OF Cattle
at Cost of $12,400.

GAINESVILLE - One of the largest
and most important shipments OF
blooded cattle ever brought into
Rock County has just been made Dy
John E. Kennedy, proprietor OF the
Oak Lawn stock farm, northeast of the
city. The value of the shipment in
cash, $12,500, stockmen declare, can
hardly represent the value which this
new Short Horn stock will add to the
future herds of the county.
This is the most valuable shipment
of blooded stock ever brought into the
state, and it is the second largest. F..
w. Harding of Waukesha, who at pres
ent is the secretary of the Short Horn
Breeders association of America,
holds the record for the largest herd
brought into Wisconsin.
Mr.. Kennedy now has eighty head
of high bred Scotch Short Horns,
known to the trade as the beef strain
Of the breed. He will increase his
herd materially later. The cattle were
purchased from Thomas Stanton OF
Wheaton, ILL.,, one of the largest I'M
porters of Scotch cattle in America.
The advent of this herd has placed
Rock county on the breeders map,
stockmen say.

PLAN RECLAIMlNG BIG AREA
Vast Drainage Project in oconto coun-
ty Nearly Ready to Be
Launched.

Oconto - Approximately 1000 acres
of marsh land, now practically worth
less, located a few miles west of the
city, will be reclaimed as soon as the
work on ia proposed drainage project
is completed. The report of the engi-
neers' survey, which has been con-
Quoted during the last summer, is now
completed, and the work will probably
be commenced as soon as weather con-
ditions will permit.
This will be one Of the largest re-
clamation works of this nature ever
conducted in northern Wisconsin, and
consequently is of great Importance to
the residents of Oconto county. Since
there now are many other regions in
Oconto and neighboring counties equal
large, with equally good soil, thls
may be one of the first operations in
general movement to drain the large
marshes of the section.
Most of the land in this region is
now worthless, but as its soil has been
declared to be first class at the Wis
consin experiment station in Madison,
it will probably become very valuable
as soon as it is drained sufficiently for
agriculture.

WOULD DEVELOP
STATE RESOURCES
SENATOR WILKINSON OF BAY
FIELD WANTS WISCONSIN AND
MINNESOTA TO COOPERATE.
URGES SURVEY COMMITTEE
Suggests Launching Active Campaign
to Interest investors and Home
seekers in Opportunities OF
Northern Part of State.

Madison-Senator A. w. Wilkinson
OF Bayfield, believes that Wisconsin
and Minnesota should cooperate in
working out a plan to develop I'M
settled counties in both states. To this
end, he will propose that the states
name a joint legislative committee to
make a survey of undeVeloped re-
sources, the immigration department,
Agricultural colleges and other estab-
Iished agencies to assist in the work.
It is his idea to launch an active
campaign to interest investors and
home-seekers in the opportunities OF
northern Wisconsin and sections of
Minnesota.
"Our state is like one great farm,
half developed and half undeveleoped,"
he said. The legislature is interested
in whether it would not be cheaper to
develop the unsettled counties than
continue to carry the burden of a rich
country producing little or nothing.
The problem before the legislature is
largely one of financing, land clear
, ing, transportation, and state super
vision"

BILLS TO AFFECT
PRACTICE OF LAW
JURY DECISION AND SUPREME
COURT ACTION SUBJECTS
OF MEASURES.
Philip SIGNS FIRST BILL
Appropriation of $4,000 Annually for
the Board Of Public Affairs Is
Approved by the Governor.
Work is Hurried.

Madison-Two measures of great
importance to the practice OF law OF
the state will be before this legislature
and will attract considerable attention
during the session.
One of the measures has already
been introduced and is joint consul
tutional amendment resolution proVld-
ing that no law passed by the leglsla-
ture shall be declared unconstitutional
by the supreme court without the con-
currence of at least all but one OF the
judges. AS the law now stands, the
vote of the majority of the court is
sufficient to declare law unconstltu-
tional and thus to render it inopera-
tive.
The other measure of Importance IN
regard to practice will be a bill, which
is being drafted, to provide that no
verdict in negligence action shall pc
rendered subject to a disagreement by
the vote of one juror, and that II
eleven jurors decide and fix damages
in such an action, that that verdict
shall stand, although one juror may
disagree with it's terms.
vt was the original intention to draft
this bill to provide that verdicts by a
majority of jury should be upheld,
but the measure has been changed IN
the drafting room so as to make neces-
sary a vote of eleven jurors in favor
of verdict, to make it the basis or
a Judgment.
This rule will apply only to tort &C
ton, if present plans are carried out,
and other civil actions will be subject
to the present rule, which requires
unanimous verdict of the jurors as
basis of a Judgment.
Both of these proposed changes IN
court practice will unquestionably at
tract much attention from the legal
profession Of the state.
Gov. Phillip has signed Senator
Plat Whitman's bill appropriating
$500 annually to continue the state
board of public affairs. This is the

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKfN HAIR
SHE MIXED SULPHUR WITH IT TO
RESTORE COLOR, GLOSS,
YOUTHFULkESS.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added will turn
gray, streaked and faded heair beau
tifully dark and luxuriant. Just a few
applications will prove revelation if
your hair is fading, streaked or gray.
Mixing the sage tea and sulphur re-
cipe at home, though, is troublesome.
An easier way Is to get a bottle of
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
at any drug store, all ready for use.
This Is the old-tinle recipe improved
by the addition Of other ingredients.
While wispy, gray. faded hair Is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
wyeth's Sage and sulphur Compound.
no one cam tell, because it does 1t so
naturally, SO evenly. You just dampen
q sponge or soft brush with II and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing all gray hairs have disappeared,
and after another application or two
your hair becomes beautifully DARK
glossy. soft and luxuriant.
This preparation IS a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
