WORKMEN URGED TO
BUY LAND NOW
VIII Always Be an Investment
i'm Value and a Haven
of Refuge.

These are fine times, when jobs are
seeking men, rather than men seeking
jobs. Wages are good, IN fact, labor
ing men are now reaping harvest
that comes once in while and doesn t
last long. No matter what our views
may be as to the cause of the tremen-
dous demand for labor during the last
two years, it is safe proposition that
the pendulum will swing as it alwaJ 5
has and thu time will come when once
more men will be seeking jobs, IN the
meantime, what should the men do
with their earnings?
Tt will be agreed that there is no
safer place to invest money than IN
good land. Good land is constantly IN
creasing in value. 1t is stable invest
ment. 1t doesn't get away on the m
stallment plan like money kept IN the
form of cash. 1t is the one property
that increases every year, whether 1t
is used or not.

Buy in Hard Times.

The greatest movements to the land
have been during the periods of hard
times That movement represented
only a small portion of those who want
ed to go to the land, because most OF the
workingmet had lived up to or beyond
their epmes dnring good times. Why
not row look ahead to the quiet times
that are sure to come? Why not
anticipate the desires of the future by
little self-denial now? Why not
get the land that will be wanted
when the pendulum shall have swung
the Other way?
The above questions are asked to
provoke th ought upon the part of the
serious minded, well knowing they
will appeal only to, those who wish
to be1er their conditions ~ d those
of their families, and who have the
force and continuity necessary to the
accomrli>l ment of desired end.

nJinX'' On Trail of
Prescott Carnival

"Old man jinx' was sure on the
trail Of the Corey Carnival c O.,
which showed at Prescott last week.
The show was due in Prescott Mon
day morning, but on account Of a
long tie,up at Dayton's Bluff did
not reach Prescott until that eve
ming. It took full day for the
shows to get ready for business and
then came the rain of Wednesday
and Thursday which put the Indian
sign on things in general. Friday
the shows drew small crowd, the
bulk Of the people evidently going
to the fair. On Saturday the Car
nival company did fair business,
but their stay in Prescott was finan-
cially, a fiat failure.

Miss Kaiser will in some way at
tempt the seemingly impossible feat
OF singing duets with herself.

husky guard, Fessenbecker, the
plunging fullback, Smith, another
end, and Vezina, who made a great
showing, but was forced out of the

The boys of Pierce county wish to
thank the County Council of Defense,
the Draft Board and the people gen
orally for the various courtesies ex-
tended, and to also express appreci-
alton of the demonstration at Ellis

lasting impression.

ment as corporals-Wayne Benedict,
Ralph Peterson, Walter Engeldinger,
Nels Grendahl, Chas. Foley, Grin

count of former military training,
which has fitted them to assist in the
instruction of the rockies"
Construction work at Camp Grant
is not completed by any means and
there are thousands of carpenters,
plumbers, electricians, etc, ETC.,
employed all over the grounds. By
way of amusement the Y. M. c.

home talent of all kinds furnishes
entertainment; there are hundreds
of ball teams Of all kinds, and real

All @. X. al Camp Grant
By Stanley r. Morse

The Pierce and st. Croix county
draft boys are installed as Co. D.,
341st Inf, at Camp Grant, Rock
ford, H., and friends wishing to
write to them should use that adj
dress.
The physical examination was held
Friday, followed by two vaccina-
tions-one for typhoid and the other
for smallpox. Only two of the Co.
D. men failed to pass Engalls,
Jr of Elmwood and Reuben John
son Of St. Croix county.
Drill work started Saturday and
occupies most of the time. 1t is
strenuous work, especially for those
who are unused to being on their
feet for any length of time, but all
are gradually getting accustomed to
it andsthe long marches are becom-
ing more in the nature of a pleasure
able relief from the grind of drill.
The company consists at present of
1873 men. The sleeping quarters &C.
cupy the one large room of the bar
racks second floor, while the mess
room and recreation room are be-
low. Hours are from 5:45 a. m. to
9 p. m.
All of the boys appear eager and
apt, and the Pierce-St. Croix COM
pany has been highly commended by
it's officers, who, by the way, are a
mighty fine set of men.
Upon arriving here the boys
were pretty we'll worn out. Those
who left Ellsworth last Wednesday
at 2:2O p. m. kept to the same car
throughout the trip, the 3-hour stop
at Hudson being the only opportuni-
ty they had to leave it until the
special arrived at the Camp Grant
station at $50 the following morn
ing. There was practically no OPP
portunity to sleep. and but few were
able to even doze. The special,
which was made up at Eau Claire,
was composed of seven coaches and
carried about 400 men. Although
men are arriving here by the thou
sands daily it is not apparent, as all
are housed Immediately upon arrival
and the size of the camp obscures
from notice all but immediate neigh
bors.
The chief feature of the week CEN
tered about Col. Theo. Roosevelt's
visit to the Camp yesterday WED

even his visit is overshadowed by the
prospect of the White Sox and
