COMBINE WASTE SAVING
WITH RAISING OF PORK

To conserve food and fuel and at the
same time to increase the output of
pork in Wisconsin, plans worked out
by the department of municipal and
sanitary engineering of the University
of Wisconsin extension division are to
be tried out in several Badger cities.
Sanitary and careful feeding of gar
bage of hogs either in municipal pig
geries or by distribution to farmers at
central disposal station constitute
the plan. By similar methods the
army environments are now saving
fuel and raising hogs by this means
and find that the waste food from 10
or Is men will fatten one hog in about
5 months. Many cities throughout the
country are adopting such a plan.
Wisconsin can increase it's OUTPUT
Of hog meat by at least $4,000 900
worth annually, it has been estimated,
if all the garbage is used

FEDERAL HIGHWAY
RECEIVES SETBACK
BY COUNTY BOARD

Owing to the action of the board of
supervisors of Jefferson county, the
proposed trunk highway between
Madison and Milwaukee cannot be
built in 1918 as the board refused to
appropriate the money necessary for
the cOunty's share of the work. 1t will
now be necessary for the state to as
sess the amount against the county
and the work can go on the following
year. The action of the board is sur
priSing to say the least. Nine of the
ten supervisors from Watertown vot-
ed for the appropriation and one,
Anton Bornschein, voted against it.
The appropriation of the money
called for at this time would augment
and not delay road Improvement so
badly needed and which is bound to
come a year later whether the board
likes it Or not. 1t would give work to
many hundreds of people and carry
out the wishes of the people as ex-
pressed by the Federal government
and the state government. However,
this will not interfere with the work
in Dane and Waukesha counties pro-
vided their county boards have ap-
propriated the required money.
Training School Killed.
The establishment of an inter
county teachers training school for
Dodge and Jefferson counties in the
/, old high school building in Watertown
also died abornin'. 1t seems it was
recommended by the special commit
tee of both boards of supervisors, but
for some reason or other the matter
never got any further.
The cost to Dodge county would
have been $1,000 year and to Jeffer-
son county $500 a year after the first
year. The statute provides that when
a county training school is placed up
on the accredited list and the work of
said school is approved that the fol-
lowing state aid will be given to said
school: A school in which two teach
ers are employed, sum not to ex-
coed $4,000; a school employing three
or more teachers will receive state
aid in the sum of $4,000 per year. If
the school employees a domestic
science teacher, $3.50 additional state
aid will be granted
In the proceedings of the Jefferson
county board appears the special
committee report:
"The Board of education of the city
OF Watertown, acting under proper
authority, offered to donate the use of
this building free of charge to Dodge
and Jefferson counties, provided said
counties would establish and main
tain therein, an inter-county training
school for teachers. After due con-
sideration and deliberation both COM
m1ttees were unanimous that, under
the present circumstances and of
certain needs, believe that it is best to
defer this proposition for our consid-
Grafton in some future meeting of this
board"
