RURAL PHONE RATES
, MAY Be RAISED SOON

The Wisconsin Telephone company
has asked the state railroad commits
sion to allow the establishment of a
zone rate instead of the local rates of
present exchanges. This company
owns seventy-fve exchanges and four
1t is set forth in the petition of the
company that the proposed zone rates
will not affect cities but will raise
rates on rural lines.
Because the commission is not sat-
isfied that the plan would prove equit-
able, it has decided to mold hearings
in the principal cities and commun1-
ties interested.
In statement issued on Thursday
the commission says that before au-
thor1ty is granted to increase rates,
investigation will be made.
Attention should be given" the
statement says, "to the notifications
which are proposed by the introduce
ton OF system of excess radius
charges which have resulted in an in
crease ofthe rates to rural subscrib-
ers; to the reasonableness of the ex-
cess charge as such, and, if it be
found that the excess radius method
OF applying rates and determination
OF charges is reasonable, the general
question of what distance should be
fixed as limit of the initial radius
should be settled"

SATURDAY CLUB IN GENERAL
DISCUSSION OF 2 COUNTRIES

The Saturday club will hold it's
weekly meeting at the public library
Monday afternoon. Miss Martha Volk-
mann will speak on the cities, loca-
tons, industries, exports, imports and
agricultural occupations of New
Zealand.
Following Miss Volkmann's talk
there will be a general discussion of
the countries of New Zealand and
Australia This will end the topics of
the two countries, which were up be-
fore the club for the past month.
The members of the club were for

tries but to see just what they looked

irritably. you're not supposed to hold

That's for me to say" Pete took a
step forward. you'll have to go back
home," he announced.
"But I've got an engagement, I tell
you"
"Where?"
''That doesn't concern you at ALL"
Pete wondered for moment.
ut looks rather suspicious to me-"
he announced finally; you want to 60
into town but you won't tell me why"
IF 1 tell you where I want to go
will you let me pass?" he asked.
Pete shook his head.
Jim thought evil thoughts. Finally
he spoke again.
"Are you still going on with this
farce?" he demanded.
"Yep."
Il suppose I'll have to go back thenv
eyes, guess you WILL"
Without a word Jim Stone turned
around and retraced his steps home
ward. Pete breathed sigh of relief.
He waited anxiously for ten minutes,
and then a figure appeared from the
direction of the town. It was the
squad sergeant.
Cali right" he announced. you kin
go back now. Every member of the
squad reported"
Pete ran all the way home, and when
he had recovered his breath he picked
up the telephone.
"Give me 1861" he said.
Doris answered his call.
'tNo," she announced, "Jim hasn't
come, and it's nine o'clock. If you
| hurry right over you may take his
place."
Peter hurried right over.

be critical.

of the high privates in the rear
ranks. 81 don't see why in the world

II didn't want to, exactly" Pete
FASTENED to assure her. "But l felt
that the city needed protection.
"Humph! A lot of protection you
could give US. What do you have to
do?"
"My especial duty is to guard the
approach over the East Milton avenue
BRIDGE" Pete explained with dignity.
GAS soon as summons comes am to
seize my revolver, club, badge, flash
light and whistle and beat it to the
bridge. Then am to refuse to let any
one enter the city until 1 receive Or
ders from police headquarters.
Doris smiled ever so family.
"Why did they give you the Milton
avenue bridge?" she asked.
Because it's only five minutes from
my house. And they probably knew
that had an especial grudge against
someone living on the other SIDE"
II suppose you mean JimW
"You supposed right. Are you going
to let me come to see you tomorrow
night?"
~ can't; someone else is coming"
"Jim, suppose"
"You supposed right" Doris smiled
mockingly.
When Pete went home that evening
he smiled happily. Something seemed
to tell him that he was going to see
Doris within twenty-four hours. To
be perfectly frank, Pete had received
inside information that the Home
Guard was to be called out the next
night, and plan had entered his mind
which argued i'll for Jim Stone.
The inside information proved to be
correct, for at exactly 7 80 of the eve
ming in question Pete received q tele-
phone call to report at once at his
station. He seized his gun and other
paraphernalia and joyfully departed
upon his mission.
1t was dark night and the bridge
was hidden in the shadows. For 20
minutes Pete sat upon the iron railing
waiting for someone to approach.
Finally his patience was rewarded.
"Haltl" he cried.
The approaching figure halted.
"What's up?" he asked wonderingly
"Tm a member of the home guard
and I've been instructed not to let any
one pass until receive further orders
You'll have to go back"
The light Of understanding came
suddenly to the challenged party.

on the matter
If one hundred people were inter-
ested in poultry raising this coming
spring it would be fine thing for the
poultry industry and will get people
IN the habit of wanting fresh eggs in
stead of storage eggs and fresh killed
hens instead of the ice box variety.
One member of the association stat
ed that he would be ready with twen-
ty-five clucks with an average of ten
chicks to each cluck this spring and
would sell them to people not keeping
chickens at three dollars. He will not
make any profit and will lose in the
interests Of his country. Several 9TH
er members expressed themselves as
being satisfied with the plan and
stated that if the County Council of
Defense would furnish the demand
they would be ready with the supply.

ter July / will be soft red winter
wheat, which contains garlic or wild
onion bulbelts or has an unmistakable
odor of garlic or wild onions. This
is but one of the several important
changes which will be found under the
new standards. It points out to the
trade the urgent need of a thorough
knowledge of the new standards.
ut is the opinion of this office that
the official grain standards of the
United States for wheat will not be-
come effective for any of the purposes
of section four of the act until July
/ for certain classes, and August l
for the remaining classes of wheat,
as set forth in service and regulatory
announcements No. %. Therefore, it
is believed that no person is required
either to have his wheat inspected or
to transact business according to
those standards prior to the respective
effective dates; and that if, prior to
the effective date, any person sees fit
to purchase wheat according to STAN
dards of the United States, his con-
tract may, if it so provides, be fulfill
ed by shipment after the effective
date without compliance with the pro-
visions of section 4 of this act"

ICELESS R~EFRIGERATORS

Refrigerators can be made to do
their part in conserving food this
summer. Preserving milk, butter and
other supplies and keeping left overs
and unused portions until they are
needed, will be their service. If ice
is not obtainable, an ~iceless refrigera-
tor, cooled by evaporation, can be
easily constructed.
This refrigerator consists of a
wooden frame covered with Canton
flannel, burlap or heavy duck. 1t is
desirable that the frame be screened,
although this is not necessary. Wicks
made of the same material as the COW
ering, resting in a pan of water on
top of the cooler, conduct the water
over the sides and ends of the pan
and allow it to seep down the sides
and ends of the pan into the box. The
evaporation from this moistened COW
ering causes a lower temperature in.
side. On dry, hot days a Temperature
of so degrees has been known to be
obtained in the cooler. This is the
way to build it:
Make a screened case 3h feet high
with the other dimensions IL by II
inches. If a solid top is used, simply
place the water pan on this. Other.
wise fit the pan closely into the open
