VALUE OF AUTUMN LEAVES

These Should Not Be Burned, but Com
posted For FertiIizing Purposes.
That more than 100000 pounds of
excellent fertilizer is destroyed annual
ly in New York state by the burning
of autumn leaves from forest and
shade trees is the conclusion of Pro-
lessor H. r. Francis of the State Col
lege of Forestry at Syracuse, who has
been making a study of the manurial
value of the leaves of trees and shrubs.
In preliminary report which Profess
sor Francis has just made to the col
lege he states that the utilization of
forest leaves for manure is one of the
phases of conservation which has hard
~ been considered by the people of the
state. ThOughtless destruction Of mil
lions of pounds of fertilizer which
would come from the decaying leaves
annually in this country should be
checked at once, as their careful use
would give farreaching results, not
only in improving the fertility of agri-
cultural lands, but in the protection
and improvement of trees and shrubs

surround our homes Nature has es-
tablished in every bit of forest, from

IRON RIVER

Pioneer
The Town Board of the town OF
Iron River has employed County
Surveyor Smith to resurvey the
town of Iron River and put down
permanent monuments at all Sec
ton corners and quarters. Mr..
Smith went to work on the job last
week and has Harry G. Hail, Ed
ward Gouet, Nels Goodrich and
George Armbruster, all of this city
assisting him. Temporary posts
are being put down now, but in the
spring, wien the frost goes out,
those will be replaced by capped
galvanized iron pipes especially
made for this purpose.
The dairy business around Iron
River is rapidly getting out OF the
class of ''infants" industries it is
getting to be quite some child, in
fact.
Tit growth in the past two years
has been very remarkable, and there
is every reason to believe that the
growth will be main tanned for some
wears to come. On December 31st
the local creamery made up its
record for the year just closed. and
this record showed that in 1916 it
manufactured 40 per cent more
butter than in 1915, and paid lis
patrons GO per cent more for butt, r
fat. The prOpOrtionate increase in
money paid out over production is
due to the higher levels of prices
paid for butterfat in 1916 over the
previous year.

Haiti's Sans Souci.

The palace OF Sans Souci, erected
by Christophe, the black leader OF
Haiti, is situated in the hills above the
level vale of Milot. with background
of forest and foreground sprinkled
with the palms and huts of simple cul-
.tivators. Dilapidated ruins and tan
gle Of tropical trees are the ruefui rem
nants OF the glory that was once the
palace without care and the garden o.
delight of the king of slaves.
It was off the coast of Haiti, near the
site Of this palace, that the flagship OF
Columbus was wrecked, and here he
left most of his men when he returned
to Spain for aid. Upon his return to
the settlement, which he called LA
Navidad," he found the whole party
dead, including an Englishman named
Allard and an Irishman, who was en-
tered on the Santa Maria's books as

THROWING THEIR FOLIAGE ABOUT THE
HOME GROUNDS.
as duff and which the farmer knows
as the rich loan which covers his
fields.
Where a few shade or forest trees
are throwing their foliage about the
home grounds it should by no means
be raked up and burned, because
it is like burning so much valuable
stable manure. Instead it should
be composted where that is possible
or used as a mulch around Towering
perennials, roses and often large trees
By wetting the leaves thoroughly and
then weighing them down by STICKS
or soil they will be a splendid winter
protection, and the weight and mols-
ture of the winters snow will bring
about rapid incorporation of the mulch
with the soil. Where autumn leaves
are to be used as a mulch about fruit
or very young shade trees some care
must be exercised in not putting the
mulch too close to the stems, as there
is danger of the mulch harbOring mice,
which during the winter might girdle
the young trees.
During the fall days great quaint
ties of autumn leaves from trees and
shrubs are blown over lawns and are
piled up in eddies in the lee Of build
ings and in the corners of fences, and,
while they may be bit unsightly I'M
til the snow comes, it will be much
better for the vegetation not to rake
these leaves into piles and destroy
them. Is it not good common sense
and thrift to use the fertilizer which
nature has placed at almost every
ones door? In villages and in the
country where horses are kept, if the
leaves can be secured easily, they
make splendid bedding and on the ma
nure pile soon decay and add the nee
essary mineral salts to the manure as
it Is spread over the garden or over
agricultural lands in the spring.

Aztecs and Human Sacrifices.

Human victims were sacrificed by
the Aztecs in various ways and rela-
lively in large numbers. Hubert Howe
Bancroft, in his History Of Mexico"
says: "The victims were for the most
part captives taken in war, and wal
was often made solely with view to
obtaining them. A large proportion.
however, consisted of condemned GRIM
inals or slaves, and even of children,
bought or presented for the purpose.
Moreover. persons sometimes offered
themselves voluntarily for the good of
the people or for the honor of god.
The greater part of the victims died
under the knife, but some were burn
ed alive, and children were often bur-
led alive or drowned, while we hear
of criminals being crushed to death
between stones. But the most cruel
sacrifice of all, and yet the most COM
mon, was performed by tearing out
the heart of living human creature
at the sacrificial stone"

SAFEGUARDS In Buildings.

The man who intends to build will
not take heed of the man who has had
an unfortunate experience In building,
because he feels that he is shrewd
enough to look after his own interests
and safeguard his own rights, nOtwith-
standing the fact that he is engaging
for the time being in 4 business enter
prise that is totally foreign to him. If
he sets out to buy five cent loaf OF
bread he gets a loaf of bread for 5
cents. If he sets eat to build resi-
dence for $4,000 there are no good
reasons why he should not be able to
do it for that amount. He should
definitely know two things-firSt, eX-
actly what he Is going to get for the
price he expects to pay and. second,
the outside limit of cost for the com
pleted structure. TO demand these
safeguards is perfectly fair and nat
ural for i'll every phase of business to-
day. except building, one knows just
what the cost Of any specified piece OF
work will he-NobIc Foster Hoggson

CharitY's Reward.

There is going the rounds Of the
clubs where certain Of the towns ply
sicians and surgeons meet story Of
a young doctor who had number of
charity cases. This young doctor, as
runs the narrative, had occasion to
visit a woman who was very poor,
with several children. He prescribed
for her cases and, touched by the evil
dent poverty of the family, gave the
woman So. Buy the medicine and
use what is left for food" he said

This office is in receipt of a state
ment from 7. A. Polleys, the tax
commissioner for the Chicago and
North western Raj way Co. in which
is displayed the comparative values
of and in the various counties OF
the tie as they have been deter
mined by the Wisconsin State Tax
Commission. The estimated average
values for each county are given
for the years Of 1906 and 1911 and
1916. These values, according to
the tax commission, are based on
on the land sales and assessment
as occurring in the various assess
ment d stricts.
According to the ompilation,
1906 found Bayfield, county with an
average value per acre Of land
amounting to 50 95. In 1911 this
average value increased to ST. 70,
and in 1916 the tax commission com
puted the average value of land in
Bayfield, county as being $16.18 p r

This is the vampire: Always inert,
sitting still, spending five to seven
hours a day looking out the window

ways giving it. Seeking amusement,
entertainment, but never affording any.
Taking, but never giving. Sitting
quietly and listening to others con-
verse and confer, even when her pres
ence is unwelcome, but saying nothing
but an occasional yes or no. Primitive
minded and narrow, with nothing to
give, she drains others Of ideas with
out retaining them-like a sieve
Thought passes through and beyond
her without stopping. She acquires
nothing, gives nothing, takes every
thing. One person alone with her be-

from kidney weakness. To live

kidneys get better. There is no

Our Two Brains.

Nature, according to a new theory,
has given us two brains, just as she
has given us a pair of eyes, hands and
ears, which help each other to do the
work Of the body.
Every one has two brains, but he
uses only one for intellectual purposes.
If man is right handed he uses the
left brain. The left handed one uses
the right brain. Which brain we are
going to use is therefore decided by
which hand we make use of first when
we are babies.
The brain which is not being used
for the intellect helps the other to min
lister to the body. 1t also serves as an
emergency brain in case of disease or
accident. Sometimes memory or speech
is destroyed by accident, and if the
second brain is trained it may do the
work of the other which has been de-
stroyed. 1t is easier to train the brain
in this way if the patient is under thir-
ty years of age.
