ANDERSON MARKET BURNS
Loss on Building and Stock About
81, 500-WaIls Stand

a solid brick wall and a tin roof was
apparently all that saved large part
of Niroqua from destruction Sunday
night, when II. +. Andersou's meat
market caught fire, probably from an
over-heated stove.
Fire was discovered in the center
room, but an attempts to save any,
thing in the front part of the shop
were frustered by the dense smoke
Famed by bowling wind from the
northwest, the interior was soon a
mass of flames. In the bitter below
zero weather, the firemen labored man.
fully with the stubborn FIRE plugs, aud
Just when the fire seemed beyond con-
trci and the entire collection of cor
ner buildings doomed, with a strong
possibility of the fire sweeping through
the city, the water came ana in a short
time the flames we're subdued.
While the building was completely
Quilted, the walls still stand, seemingly
in good condition Also the floor and
basement are not injured, and the
$1,000 insurance carried by Miss johann
ma AnaniaSon will probably be ample
to cover her loss. Mr.. Anderson is
not so fortunate. His stock and fix
ance of 5000, and there is practically
no salvage.
The most exasperating loss is that
of damage and breakage to fixtures
and stock of the Dew hotel and Ander-
son Bros. grocery store inflicted by
the well-meaniug but too re alous crowd
in moving them out Had they but
waited few minutes longer, it would
have been seen not necessary.
With commendahle courage, Mr.. An
derson Immediately purchased of Ed
ward Mullen his meat market and
took possession Tuesday morDing-be-

ers to try and remember and tell him

NOT FAVORABLE TO vIRooUA
Electric Light Proposition Compared
in Two Cities

After reading the CENSOR's review
of revised light prices in this city, the
Press of Prairie du Chen enters into
comparison of relative conditions in
the two towns, from the standpoint
that the places are of similar situa-
alton for providing light and electric
power. The Press comments thus:
For year the city of Viroqua has
been trying TO get the rate commission
to reduce the light rates in Viroqua
and last week the report came. The
lighting rates we're reduced from zoe
per XIV to l5c, and twenty-four hour
service ordered so as to give power
service also, which will be Sc per XIV.
The white way lights we're reduced
from 800 to $50 per year. The actual
value of Viroqua's plant is given at
S32, $50.
In view Of the fact that the light
and power rates OF this city were al.
justed by the same commission short
time ago a comparison will show some
extreme advantages this city has over
its neighboT.
Prairie du Chen light rates Is Zoe
per XIV. and the power rate 40 per XIV
with 2tc rate where the current con
sumed reaches specified amount.
The white way lights for this city cost
but Si2. 50 per year. The actual value
of the Prairie du Chen plant is placed
by them at $4,000,
Prairie du Chen has one-third the
advantage on the light rates and bet
ter than a half on the power rates.

wEATHERIs ABAD DRAWBACK
All Tobacco Operation at Standstill
Future Speculations

The customary January thaw failed
to materialize this year. and as con-
sequence there is much disappointment
in both country ari town. Monday, a
week ago, was mild and gave promise
of softnesS and warmth sufficient to
admit OF taking tobacco from the
poles. Quick change of atmosphere,
which are common this winter, pre-
vented removal of weed. The local
warehouses are cleaned up and must
await delivery of goods before work
can be renewed. At the best, packing
houses will of necessity be operated
well into the early summer.
A good percentage OF the crop is
under contract, but severe weather
conditions for almost two months have
kept local and outside buyers out of
the growing districts.
Tobacco growers, like publishers Of
newspapers, realize the nigh cost of
paper Both grades of paper have
gone up in very much the same pro-
portion Tobacco wrapping paper
was 81 cents TWO years ago, now IL
cents.
Speaking for the future, the Edger-
ton Tobacco Reporter says: That
growers have already begun TO lay
plans for next season 5 tobacco crop is
in evidence for we are informed that
one of our state seed dealers has sent
out over 100 pounds of seed, enough to
set 1900 acres at least. The question
of curing sheds ii the only difficulty in
the way of an extraordinary increase
OF acreage the coming year. A good
many sheds that have been permitted
to Toe va, ant or devoted TO other uses
will be put to their original purpose
this season is evident, which will in
Grease the acreage 10 to Is per cent
The high price of building material
stands in the way Of erecting many
new storehouses, but the full acreage
Of the curing capacity Of every farm
will be utilized this year is certain.
When the tobacco crop is yielding
close TO or better thaa $500 per acre
il is a mighty attractive proposition 10

Shall we have a township high school
here, asks the ReadtOwn Tribune? 1t
is a question that is agitating some of
the most prominent and influential
citizens Of the village and the town of

bune thinks such an institution will
have hearty endorsement of citizens
of both town and village voters. The

port of township high schrr!s in the
matter of teachers salaries, both for
