To Trim Edges on Waste.

Magnus Swenson, state food admin
iStratOr has started out to trim the
edges from WiSconsin's food waste.
His first move is against the festaur-
ant patron.
Investigation has revealed TO Mr..
Swenson that fully 25 per cent of the
bread and rolls served from day to
day is mutilated by guests, and re-
turns TO the kitchen unfit for further
use. He also~h discovered that 80
per cent of the toast used to garnfsh
eggs, bacon and ham is not eaten.
AS a result of his investigation he
has issued the following appeal to no
tel and restaurant owners:
1--WE are informed that fully 25 per
cent of all bread and rolls served by
hotels from day TO day Is mutilated
by guests, and returns to the kitchen
unfit for further use on the table 1t
is also reported that probably 80 per
cent of the toast used to garnish eggs,
bacon and ham is not eaten by the
guest who places the order.
LAS a measure for the conservation
of wheat flour the federal food ad-

requests that smaller portions Of bread
be served with each meal, and that
the practice of garnishing meat and
egg dishes with toast be dIscontin-

ANDREW SCHILL
ACCIDENTALLY
SHO 7.

A duck hunting party consisting of
A. W. Lambert, printer; Lynn Renne,
mail carrier; and Andrew Schill me-
chanic at Schill's garage, drove in Mr.
Renne's car to Ross Lake. Adams coun
ty Sunday morning to spend the day
hunting. Mr. Schill and Mr.. Renne
were in one boat, while Mr.. Lambert
was in second boat. Mr.. Schill had
shot one duck and saw another, and
pulled for shore where he could do
more execution, and in his hurry as
he left the boat he grabbed the gun
with his left hand and drew it to-
wards him. In doing SO the gun was
discharged, the shot passing thru the
ieshy part of his left hand and enter
ed his body at the arm-pit, making
an ugly and serious wound in his
shoulder.
After the accident, Mr.. Lambert was
called for and they loaded Mr.. SchiIl

hospital as rapidly as possible. At
he hospital Drs. Waters and Hougan
dressed the wound removing the wads
and shot from his body. On close ex-
animation, it was found by the ply
sicians that only the fieshy part of the
left hand was shot away but the bones
If the hand were intact. Neither the
lungs or any other vital part of the
chest were penetrated. 1t is believed
hat Mr.. Schill will recover unless
blood poison should set in. He was

The patient called for his parents

ROAD OPEN

The Grand Rapids Pittsville Road is
again open for traffic. This is the
first concrete on the Wood County
Trunk Line to be thrown open to the
public.
This has been very unpleasant
road to work on account Of there being
10 place at the East end to steer the
srafic around and also it being long
ways around. ,.-.
Thave also come in for considerable
criticism for having same closed so
long, but as the contractor was sup
posed to have this road and the vii
age of Auburndale Road (Which he
is now starting) all completed by the
18th day of July, and as the contrac-
tor has signed over to Wood County
he amount of $1,000 per day pm each
lob after July Is as liquidated damage
and he has furnished surety bond
to the amount of $4,000, the only
thing I could do was to keep on hurry
'ng him along, which did.
The reason the road being closed
so long iszperhaps due to scarcity of
men and misarrangement by the con-
tractor.
| am sorry, however, that | was
compelled to use the law in order to
save the concrete from being ruined
by traffic. There are people here in
the City and other places who should
have been arrested several days be-
fore | made any trouble for anyone.
out | lacked the evidence to convict,
and | repeat that | am sorry for any
one getting arrested because it gets
friends and foes alike, as l hope I
have some of the former and could
hardly expect to be without some of
the latter.

Vaughn Author of Bill.
May Delay Special Session.

Political leaders are beginning to ex-
press q doubt as to whether the spe-
cial session of the legislature will be
held this fall. 1t was the original In
tention of Governor Philip to call the
legislature into session sometime in
November. Some of the members OF
the legislature are doubtful as TO
whether the call will be issued at all
and others feel sure that 1t will not be
issued before the first of the year. At
the executive office no information as
to the date of the calling of the ses-
sion can be obtained.
Some time ago Governor Phillip aR-
nounced that there would be a special
session of the legislature and among
the things that would be taken up
would be the enforcement or non-eD-
fOrcement of the Sunday closing law.
There were a number Of other things
which the governor mentioned might
be taken up in the special session.
Among these were cOditicat1on of
the drainage laws of the state and Il
change in the fishing laws that will
relieve certain hardships of the fish
ermen at Green Bay.
1t was even suggested at different
times that there were some financial
phases of the war program that might
be brought to legislative attention.
Just what would be the nature Of
these proposals is not known. Many
OF the members thought that If they
were TO be summoned into session 1t
would be for about two months work,

RAISE MORE HOGS,
SAYS j. s. OFFICIAL
Dr.. Behnke Urges Farmers to
Help Meat Supply of the
Nation.
VETERANS GO TO WCKSBURG
Survivors of the Campaign of the
Civil War to Be Carried to the Re-
union October 1919 at
Vicksburg Free.

MadiSOn.-In an address on the
Government Meat Inspection and the
Conservation of Our Meat Supply" be
fore the Rotary club in Milwaukee, DR..
}. II. Behnke, in charge of the bureau
OF animal industry, declared that the
hog paid more mortgages paid for
more farms, sent more young people
to college, made more bank accounts.
paid more bills, built more homes and
churches, paid more freight on the
railroads, satisfied the hunger of more
people, tickEd the palates of more rich
people than any one industry in our
country.
Every farmer" he said "can do his
bit by raising more hogs and raising
nishes the most meat for a given
amount of food in the quickest time,
and much of the food can be used
which would otherwise be wasted"
Nine establishments are operating
under government inspection in the
city of Milwaukee, said Doctor Behnke.
Continuing, he said:
III uuultIOn 10 tnlS several SuDSt0-
dons in different parts of the state
are under supervision of the MilWau-
kee office. The packing industry of.
Milwaukee is of considerable import
ance, particularly as it applies to the
slaughter of hogs. In the calendar
year, 1918, in round numbers, over a
million and Il half hogs were slaugh
tered at official establishments in Mil
Waukee and approximately $4,000 cat
lie. AT the present prices of live
stock, 100000 of hogs would repre-
sent an outlay ~of $J0000,O00 to the
farmers and shippers. -vv--~- ---er-s :
The department estimates that an
ounce of meat wasted daily in each
American home will mean approx
mately the loss of 45O,000O00 pounds
in year. The office of markets has
issued statements showing that our
stock of cured meats, i. e., sweet
pickle and dry salt as of September l,
1916, and September /, 1917, are ap--
parently the same, |. e., there has
been decrease of less than / per cent
the stock of lard. The price of the
dressed carcuSSeS on the other hand
has increased i'm the last year on beef
- per cent. mutton 81 per cent veal
- per cent. hogs g. per cent. These
figures speak for themselves"

WORK THAT MUST BE
DONE IN WISCONSIN
From the Milwaukee Journal

From the Milwaukee Journal
The Wisconsin Loyalty Legion has
just perfected its organization by e.
lecting Judson c. Rosebush, Appleton,
president. Walter S. Goodland, Racine
is vice president and secretary, and
William A. Hayes, Milwaukee, is
chairman of the executive council.
The legion is patriotic in character and
its mission is to meet conditions a.
rising from the war. 1t is statewide
in it's scope. It aims to organize the
| patriotism of every county, every COM
munity,
Service to Wisconsin and the nation
far beyond that rendered by any other
organization ever formed in the state
is the opportunity which lies before
the Wisconsin Loyalty Legion. 1t has
an Incompatible opportunity, high
patriotic duty and privilege, to do
work that calls loudly for great serv-
ice.
One of the first duties is to arouse
and organize the loyal forces of Wis
consin to do their utmost in uphold
ing the hands of the national govern
ment in the task of defending the na-
tion against foes at home as well as
abroad, and in carrying on the war
for America is a settled fact. This
strongly and unitedly until victory
means a campaign of education that
shall include every nook and corner,
OF the state, the awakening and en-
listment in the nations cause of every
loyal man, woman and child.
Another task that the legion should
perform without failure at any point
solemn duty that plainly falls to
it's lot, is to see that men whose loyal
ty cannot be questioned are nominated
and elected and placed on guard at
the state capitol and in congress. All
of US have witnessed hesitation, cow
ardice and even worse things on the
part of~our representatives at both
seats of the government. We have
seen our state legislature dodge the
great outstanding issue of the time
and disgracefully fail at critical hour
to assert the justice of Americas
cause We have seen members of the
lower house of congress support mea-
sures that the agents and partisans
of Germany demanded in the interest
of Germany. We have seen a United
States Senator from Wisconsin 90 so
far in saying and doing things as in
effect, to uphold Germany and weaken
the United States. In large measure
these representatives have pursued
this shameful course, knowing disloy-
al sections of the state were organized
to serve Germany and such organiza-
ton led these men to believe that the
way to keep their jobs was to fall into
line with organized disloyalty and to
do its bidding.
Citizens of Wisconsin have seen
their governor fail at the beginning
of the war to declare himself to the
president, as governors of other states
did at the time, in support of Ameri-
cas- government. After the German
Socialist party in the United States
following the declaration by congress
OF the existence of state of war with
Germany, had asserted that Ameri-
cas- attitude of self defense was
crime, they have seen the governor ex-
tend recognition and give prestige to
this party byapointing one of its mem
bers to a position on Wisconsin's fore
most educational board. They have

Announcement has been withheld By
the state until it was certain that the
national government would be able to
furnish tents and equipment to take
care of the veterans.
A few years ago the state sent the
veterans Of the Gettysburg campaign
to a jubilee under similar circum-
stances. Senator Staudenmayer is the
author of the Vicksburg appropriation
bill in the senate and ASSemblyman
