BARABO0 wins
F..,OM REEDSBURG

The Baraboo high school football
team decisiveIy defeated the Reeds
burg team here Saturday. The score
does not indicate the relative strength
Of the two teams because at no time
during the game was Reedsburg with
in scoring distance. They were never
within the thirty-fve-yard line.
The entire Baraboo team performed
creditably, the work Of the forwar@ S
being especially good. The plunging
of the Reedsburg backs very seldom
Melted more than three yards. The
defensive work of the team was very
good throughout. The back field sue
ceeded in carrying the ball down into
Reedsburg's territory time after time.
When the whistle blew for the first
half BaraboO had the ball on Reeds
burg's twO-foot line. The work of
Potter and Hanson at smashing the
line was very good. Potter reeled off
runs Of from 8 to Is yards through the
line.
In open-feld running Evenson,
Radtke and KiImer made their share
of gains. EvensOn returned several
punts for distances we'll over 20 yards.
The touchdown was scored by for
ward pass from EvensOn to Terry.
Terry stood head and shoulders above
any defensive man on the field The
right half and full back for Reedsburg
played very good ball and were easily
the stars Of their team.
The Baraboo lineup was as follows:
Captain and R. H., Robert Evenson;
T. B., Homer Hanson; L, H., Boyd Pot
ter; L. B., William Radtke; c., Orlo
Kieffer; R. G., Arthur Kieffer; r. T.,
Ivan Cahoon; R. E., Eugene Terry;
L. G., Fred Brand; L. T., George
Schenck; L. E., Howard Monroe.

CLEANS THE BLOOD
TONES THE NERVES

The gratifying results attending
the faithful use of the new medici-
nal combination, Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla before eating and Peptiron
after eating, are seen in purer blood,
stronger nerves, improved condition
Of the whole system.
They are results that make this
course of treatment the most eco
nomical for sufferers from impure,
impoverished blood, weak, unsteady
nerves-no other accomplishes so
much for each cent expended.
Hoods Sarsaparilla and Pept-
iron aid each other, and to take
both is to derive a four-fold benefit.
If laxative is needed in connec-
ton with them, the gentle and thor
ough Hoods Pills should be used.

of Finance

many, in a supplemental note to
Rome, has suggested the restoration
of Belgium on certain conditions,
which are, of course, unacceptable.
The Kaiser suggests that payment
shall be made by the Central Powers
for part of the war damage" This
offer is not SO important in itself. But
1t is an indication OIL movement to
prepare his own people for the inevi-
table. Not very long ago the mere
suggestion to withdraw from Belgium
would have been assailed with severe
criticism from military supporters
throughout Germany, but the current
ADD FINANCIAL
offer seems hardly to have attracted
widespread attention. But one by
one these little evidences are creeping
out, showing that the subject Of peace
is being systematically worked out.
By spring our own country will have
an army abroad capable Of striking
in most decisive manner-an army
composed OF men fresh and fit in
body ana spirit well equipped and
eager to do their full share in the
struggle for democracy. Opposed to
them will be armies worn out by
more than three years of service,
with equipment that has necessarily
deprecated, with poorly fed troops
who know that their families are in
want and misery The Kaiser and
his advisers know as well as they
know anything that these are condf-
tions which they cannot successfully
meet. It seems quite fair to believe
that as intelligent men they will leave
no stone unturned to prevent an is
sue that can have but one result. We
are approaching fairly close the ter
mination of the 1917 campaign. The
British and French and italian troops
may be expected to continue even af-
ter the winter sets in their work OF
attrition, which will wear down the
enemy and make the Entente forces,
as reinforced by our strong and Wig
orous American army, ready for a
final attack in the spring. This will
occur unless the Kaiser in the mean
time shall recognize the futility OF
keeping up the unequal fight, when
his submarine and other forms OF
frightfulness, which he has so conf
IDENTIFY relied upon. have been fully
tried and found wanting.

CONSUMPTION OF WATER.

Water Board Clerk Complies Inter-
esting Figures Covering Four Years.
The consumption of water as the
meters show for the six months end
ing June 1917 was: Factories, ST.
100000 cubic feet; domestic consum-
ers, 41.691,1O0 cubic feet; making a
total of e8.899,000 cubic feet. Re-
duced to gallons this would be 714,-
742,500, which divided by 1872 days
shows the consumption daily to be
4,O75,5 500 gallons. Assuming the popu-
lation to be $1,000, this would make
the per capita consumption about rs
gallons. The increase in the per
capita from last year is caused by the
increased consumption of the facto-
ries, which amounts to over 12,O00,-
900 cubic feet more than December
1916.
Following is the consumption for
each six months since the meter rate
was adopted:
