LA CROSSE GETS KENosHA PLAN

Kenosha county is aiding Lacrosse
county to get started on the work of
building a sanatorium to care for pa
tients i'll with tuberculosis and many
architects plans which were suggested
for Kenosha have been sent to the
building committee at Lacrosse. This
action was taken by the county clerk
with the consent of the architects.
Several committees from Lacrosse
county have been in Kenosha visiting
Willowbrook and it is their plan to
build in that county an institution
very similar to the one now maintained
by Kenosha county.

MOTORCYCLE COPS TO WORK
Sheriff and County Road Committee
Will Take Joint Management Over
Road Activities During Coming Sea
son-$3O0 for Humane Society.

The county board at the closing
meeting Of the January session on Sat
urday afternoon, got some idea Of how
hard it is to get away from state in
surance. The members of the board
had suggested that the county switch
the insurance on Willowbrook from
the state insurance fund to Old Line
Companies. These men held that they
wanted some one to put "sure" into
the insurance on the county sanatorium
on account of the fact that it was a
considerable distance from any fire
fighting agency. The insurance on the
institution, like other county insur-
ance, was written in the state fund
some time ago. Former District Attor-
ney A L. Drury appeared to advise
the board in regard to the matter and
he declared that it was impossible for
the county to divide between the state
and the old line companies. The board
finally adopted resolution leaving the
matter with the district attorney and
the county agent to readjust the insur
ance. This committee has full power
to act and the members of it may be
able to find way to dispose Of
the state insurance and write the
insurance on Willowbrook in one of
the more conventional lines.
Motor Cops for Next Season.
The county is not going to give up
the plan of patrolling the improved
roads with motorcycle officers, but in
the coming summer months this work
will be under the direction of the
sheriff Of the county and the members
of the county roads committee. One
officers will be employed at salary
of eighty dollars month and if the
committee sees the need of extending
the force it is given power to put on
such officers as it may see fit. The
salary of these officers is to be paid
from the general funds of the county.
The county board showed an appre-
citation of the work Of the Kenosha
County Humane Society by recon-
mending the appropriation of three
hundred dollars for the work or the
organization during the eo'ning year.
This will make possible a considerable
extension Of the work.
The office of Supervisor Of Assess
ments Joseph E. Dalton, is to be moved
from the county building and special
committee of the county board is now
looking for an office. The second floor
office which for years has been occu-
pied by the supervisor of assessments,
will become the office Of the county
surveyor and it viii be fitted up with
view Of having the records of this
official in condition where they will
be available to the people of the
county.

SEES VALUE TO The COUNTY
State Hatchery Would Bring Expendi-
ture Of Considerable State Funds and
Would Insure an Early Re Stocking
of the Lakes In the County.

Assemblyman d. J. Vincent who
came home from Madison on Friday
evening and returned to his work in
the legislature this morning is busy
lining up the people of the county in
an effort to secure the location of one
of the Wisconsin state hatcheries at
Twin Lakes. The state now has nine
of these hatcheries and it is planned
to establish another one this year.
The suggestion has been made. that it
be located somewhere in the southern
part of the state and the assemblyman
from Kenosha county was the first man
to, make a suggestion as to the loca-
ton. He has asked the Conservation
Commission to recommend to the legis-
lature that it be located on Twin
Lakes. Governor Philip has declared
himself in favor of the building of a
hatchery in this section of the state
and he has been asked to specify Ke-
nosha county.
The Twin Lakes location is regarded
as ideal as it would offer easy means
of transporting the "fry" from the
hatchery to all parts of the state as
railway facilities. direct to the state
hatchery could be provided.
The coming Of a state hatchery to
Twin Lakes would mean much for that
section of the county. Tt would mean
the expenditure on the part of the state
of a considerable sum for the building
of buildings and the state would en-
ploy a considerable number of men
there during the year. More important
would be the fact that it would insure
the stocking Of Kenosha lakes with
fish fry at the lowest possible expense.
Just at present it is declared that a
lot of the lakes in Kenosha county are
fished out" and with the coming Of
the hatchery it is pretty certain that
within a few years the lakes of Keno
sha county would be among the best
stocked lakes in the state.
"Kenosha county is entitled to this
state project said Assemblyman Vim
cent, "and if we are to land it, we
must have the support of the people Of
the county and the city as we'll
want a real booster from the Chamber
of Commerce and the Kenosha Retail
ers' Association and l want some Of
the prominent men of the city and
county to get uF to Madison >and make
personal plea for the Twin Lakes
hatchery
Just at present no other lake in the
state has sought the location FOR the
proposed new hatchery and it is de
clared that many of the members of
the legislature are favorable to the sug-
gestion by Mr.. Vincent.
The matter will be taken up BY the
legislature within the next few DAYS
and at that time Assemblyman Vincent
will call upon the Kenosha men for
help. Many of the real fishermen in
Kenosha are strongly in favor of Sc
curing the state hatchery for this
county.

HOW KENosHA STRIDES.

Congressman H. A. Cooper put in
his bid for new post Office branch
in congress on Saturday when he
made an extended speech in favor
of the seventy-fve thousand dollar
appropriation for Kenosha. He said:
"Kenosha is one Of the most
thoroughly enterprising, up-to-date
and thriving cities. In 1890 its
population was 1882, in 1900 it was
1865, and in 1916 it was conser-
vatively estimated to be from
$4,000 to $4,000.
seThe post Office receipts in
Kenosha for 1890 were $8,7S1, and
for 1915, s95,6l9. According to
the federal census report of manu-
faeturers, the value of products
manufactured in Kenosha in 1914
was S23, 341, 900. I"
