BURGLARS BLOW SAFE DOOR
Yeqgs Wreck Vault of Waldo State
Bank But Leave Without secur-
ing Anything of Value.

Waldo = Safe blowers partially
wrecked the vault in the Waldo State
bank but failed to gain admittance to
the interior of the vault and left with.
out securing anything of value.
According to information received
by George D. Bartlett, secretary of the
State Bankers association, the robbers
used acetylene gas in their efforts to
get into the vault This is said to be
the first time this method has been
employed in Wisconsin.
The explosion blew out the outer
vault door and a part of the safe door,
but was of insufficient force to wreck
the door on the inner vault, where the
banks funds were. The damage to
the safe is estimated at $500.
The Waldo bank is the second to be
attacked in Wisconsin this fall.
No one heard the explosion which
wrecked the vault and no clew to the
robbers has been obtained, no susDi-
cious characters having been seen in
Waldo during the last few days. The
attempted robbery was discovered
when the bank was opened the follow
ing morning by Cashier H. w. Thinner.

KEEP LIQUOR FROM TROOPS
Governor Philip Asks That Men Be
Named to See That Drafted Men
Are Sober-Intoxicants
Are Concealed.
KEEP LIQUOR FROM TROOPS

Madison, Oct. 17.-Gev E. l.. Philipp
sent letter to all local army draft
boards to see that no drafted men sent
to concentration camps were intOxi-
Gated or carried intoxicating LIQUOR
with them. He advised that men be
appointed in charge of local cOntin-
gents of drafted men who will enforce
the rule that men under them have
no liquor Immediately prior TO taking
trains for the camps at Battle Creek,
Mich, and Rockford, H., or while on
the trains to those camps. Governor
Philips letter to local boards is as
follows: 1T has ben called to my
attention that we'll intentioned people
have given to selected men, prior to
their entrainment and at stations en-
route to the mobilization camp, vari-
Gus quantities of liquor. Liquor has
also be0n concealed in baskets OF food
and fruit that were given to men Of
the National army Ell route to their
mobilization camp. Such gifts result
in very bad effect on the men, make
them defiant of discipline and are like
ly TO lead to court martial for the I'M
fortunate man. But apart from the
effect upon the men, it defameS the
good name and reputation of the state.
We must see to it that not a single
person from this state enters mobili-
ZatiOn camp under the influence Of
liquor. In selecting the man who is to
be in charge Of the contingent from
your local board, will you please select
one who will enforce the rule that the
men of the National army shall have
no liquor whatever prior to their en-
trainment or while en- route? Please
give the person In charge of the con-
tingent specific instructions that liquor
is forbidden and ask him TO cOnfiscate
all liquor found in the possession of
the men in his charge. We are calling
section 1865 of the Wisconsin statutes
fOrbidding public drinking of intOxi-
eating liquors on trains and authoriZ
ing conductors to cOntiscate liquor
found on the train" no white draft
ed men of Wisconsin probably will be
ordered to camp this month. This is
the inference placed by Adjutant Gen
eral HolWay on a telegram he received
from the war department notifying
him that colored men drafted from
Wisconsin will go to camp during the
week of October 27. There are "a
colored boys TO go, one-half to Battle
Creek and the other half to Rockford.

HOG SERUM PRICE GOES UP
Pork Producers Of the State Will Have
to Pay 80 Per Cent More-Virus
to Be Furnished Free.

Madison-Due to increased cost OF
production, hog cholera serum, made
by the state for the protection of Wis
consin droves against disease, has fol.
lowed the upward trend of pork
prices.
Notice of g so per cent advance in
the price of hog cholera serum to the
pork producers of Wisconsin has just
been issued from the Office of F. b.
Hadley, agricultural experiment sta
ton veterinarian.
In making public this change IN
prices, which became effective On Oct
10, Dr. Hadley said:
Due to the great increase in the
cost and keep of swine for use in the
manufacture Of hog cholera serum and
virus, it becomes necessary tc raise
the price of the serum of 112 cents a
cubic centimeter Virus will be fur
nished free as heretofore.

SAUSAGE
FACTORY BUSY

Everybody in the Weiland & Refs
Sausage Factory are very busy these
days filling orders to the local meat
markets and gradually will find mar
ket outside Of the city and county. This
new industry is making a speciality of
delicious high-grade sausage. To do
this they are purchasing the bset quail
ity of the various meats that they
want to use in making the following
brand of sausages: Nett Wurst,
Braunschweiger, Summer Sausage,
Frankfurts, Polish, Liver Sausage,
Ring Blood Sausage, Blood Tongue,
Bologna Ring, Bologna large, Minced
Ham, Pressed Ham, and French Blood
Pudding. This is the present line of
sausages that they are manufacturing
and of course intend to enlarge upon
the different lines that they will carry
later. The new firm apepars to be we'll
satisfied with the way things are op-
ening up for them and the local meat
market men are going to handle their
products. The only thing necessary
for the new factory is to make an ex-
cellent product along a sanitary line
and they will have no trouble in dis
posing of their goods. Grand Rapids
people certainly wish them well.

Tell Farmers to Make Best Corn Yield

high pressure campaign has been
started to supply Wisconsin corn grow
ers with suitable seed corn for their
1918 planting.
With scarcely enough seed corn TO
20 around, there is need to conserve
the available supply. To accomplish
this three special field agents have
been appointed to assist Wisconsin
farmers in the campaign They are
A. c. Russell, Augusta Noyes Raes-
sler, Beloit, and E. d. Holden, Madi-
son. They will work under the joint
direction of the agricultural extension
service, University of Wisconsin, and
the United States department of agri~
culture.
Hunt for, save, cure and store the
best there is" will be the slogan to
animate the statewide seed corn Selec-
ton drive which is now engaging the
attention of county agricultural repre-
sentatives, emergency food agents,
farmers clubs, and county councils of
defense.
The widespread early frosts have
made concerted action necessary
throughout the state in order that
the 1918 corn planting may not be Seri-
ously restricted for want of suitable
seed

Big Grain Year.


Losses amounting to millions OF dol
lars were caused by the heavy frosts
which occurred throughout most of the
state during the second week OF Sep
tember, according to the Joint crop
report just issued at Madison. Forty
seven per cent of the corn crop IA per
cent of the potato crop, 36 per cent
of the bean crop, and 3S per cent of
the buckwheat crop were seriously
damaged, while 80 per cent Of the to-
bacco crop was frosted, but not enough
to make It worthless for harvesting
The cranberry crop has been reduced
from 43 600 barrels to 26,0OO, or loss
of 1900 barrels, largely because Of
the frost. 1t is estimated that the
corn crop has suffered reduction of
Is, T39 600 bushels; potatoes, 2,4O6, 900
bushels. and tobacco 3,442 900 pounds
since the September report was issued.
The most serious damage to the pOta-
to crop occurred In the counties of
Portage, Waupaca, Waushara, Adams,
Juneau. and Marquette, where q dam
age to the crop ranging from 20 TO 30
per cent Is reported. The crop In the
eastern and southern counties, as well
as in number of the northern coun-
ties was damaged but little by frost,
and an unusually large crop is being
harvested.

wheat crop Of over five million BUSH
els. an oat crop of 100,00O,000 bushels,
a barley crop of over twenty millions,
and a rye crop of over seven million
bushels, Wisconsin has harvested one
