Tn several places sheep in small
numbers are seen on farms. Sheep
and goats have been tried out in other
sections of this state as weed exter-
minators on summer fallow and have
proven an entire success. Goats es-

The farmers in the territory south
and southeast OF American Falls are
anxiOusly awaiting the establishment
Of rural mail routes. The districts
are well settled and the population
increasing. The day Of non-reading
farmers is long past-in fact, the
farmers homes are eminent patrons
of local papers and other first class
reading matter. Especially during the
farming seasons does it frequently he
come an annoyance to be forced TO
make a special trip to town to keep
up with what is going on in the world,
at home and at large. It is hoped that
means will be soon established to
make the process of getting mail from
the postoffice to the farm homes less
annoying.

be the property of ]. r. Olders. and
in the course Of the visit Mr.. Orders
introduced his father, Mr.. II. I. Orders,
a gentleman in his seyenty-third year,
who is spending the evening Of his
life with his son. In the exchange of
views on this and that it was brought
out that Mr.. Orders, ST., came from
the same city in Ohio which was the
boyhood home Of the Pilgrim-Colum-
bus. Many of the old landmarks Of
that historic city were revived IN
memory, and many Of the old time
characters Of the city were recalled.
Mr.. Orders is a veteran of the Civil
war. although he did not take part in
the bloody battles of that period.
When it seemed as if the southern
raider, General Morgan, was about to
cross the Ohio river with the announc-
ed intention Of destroying the city OF
Cincinnati, the state militia was cal
led out and modified in Columbus.
Mr.. Orders was a member of the mill
tary organization. When the call
came it caught the men in the midst
of the harvest season, and as the state
had many thousands of men in the
army on the southern fields il would
have meant the loss of many acres OF
crops to take away still more men

He finished by telling them to go back
home to the farms and take care o.
the crops so that Ohio would not fal

: PLAN MASONIC HOME

The new Masonic home on the farm
near Dousman will cost between $751;
goo and 100000. The plans are now
in the hands OF a subcommittee. They
will be submitted for approval to the
grand lodge meeting in June.
The project for the Masonic home
is the outgrowth of a gift several
years ago of a farm of 319 acres by
Willard Van Brunt, Horizon. 1t lies
northeast of Dousman and is supplied
with buildings which include brick
residence, where as many aged Ma
sons and their wives now live as it
is possible to accommodate. MIR. Van
Brunt gave the farm to the Wiscon-
sin consistory, which developed it as
far as was practicable. After a few
years it was found that much more
room was needed, and it was decided
that the grand lodge was the proper
body to have charge of it.
Mr. Van Brunt offered the grand
lodge 100000 provided it would take
the property over and convert it into
home for needy Masons, their wi
dows and orphans, and create main
| tenance fund by assessment of so
cents on each Wisconsin member Of
| the order per annum. The matter
was under consideration for a time,
and following the adjustment of some
| legal difficulties, the agreement was
made. Last June the farm was trans
ferred to the grand lodge. The value
OF the property is in the neighbor-
hood of 100000, and in addition Mr..
| Van Brunt turned over 100000 in
gilt-edged real estate securities.
A committee composed Of A. E..
Matheson, GAINESVILLE, az chairman;
Mr.. Van Brunt, C. C. Rogers, Milwau-
kee; II. w Sawyer, Hartford; Robert
B. Lang, Racine; Judge Aldro jerks,
lDodgeville; David Harlowe, H. N.
Latin and William Currie, Milwau-
kee. was named to undertake its man
agement and supervise the extensions
that were needed This committee
named Mr.. Van Brunt, Mr.. Matheson
and Mr. Harlowe, as a subcommittee
| on plans for the new home.
Two of the members, Messrs. Ma
theson and Harlowe, inspected Ma
sonic homes in Ohio, Indiana, Tennes-
see and Alabama in October, and made
recommendations following their re-
turn They employed Armand d. Koch
as architect and he is preparing plans
under direction of the committee.

Whatever is done will be done only
by the sanction Of the grand lodge at
it's melting in June, but it is expected
that a building will be erected with
parlors, reception rooms, assembly
rooms, chapel, dining rooms, kitchen,
sleeping apartments and heating
plant, to accommodate from fifty to
sixty aged Masons and widows of Ma
sons, and other adult dependents 1t
is hoped that in time arrangements
can be made for the care Of needy
children, but this could not be under
taken at this time. Plans will be
made for other buildings, such as a
hospital, power plant and cottages,
to be erected as money is found to do
the work.
The farm is under the supervision
of Prof. and Mrs. E. W. Walker, and
a subcommittee consisting of R. B.
Lang and William Currie 1t is cele-
brated throughout the state for its
fine herd and 100 Holstein cattle.

The first nurses training school for
colored wemen ever projected in tho
South will be opened by the Memorial
hospital about January J. Negro
trained nurses are today practically
unknown IN the South yet the great
need for them for nursing in colored
homes is recognized by the health de-
partments and medical men of all
Southern cities
The Negro Nurses Training school
is made possible by the building by
Memorial hospital of the new s175.-
900 negro pavilion, which Is now
under construction adjoining the ola
Medical College of Virginia. This
modern hospital Will be for negro
patients only, and thus offers a SPLEEN
did opportunity for the training of
negro nurses.
Applications for admission to the
Negro Training school are now being
received by superintendent Frederic

and forty women,
Applicants must be negro women

The nurses in the present Memorial
Hospital Training school for white
nurses, The period of training will
ne about two years, at the end of
which time the graduates will receive

Their training will include service
in the following divisions of the negro
pavilion: The, emergency room, medi-
cal cases. surgical cases, the diet
kitchen, %-ray room. childron's ward,
operating room and every branch OF
nursing service
Special emphasis In the negro
school will be laid upon teaching So
cial service. so that these nurses Will
be able to teach more sanitary living
in the homes in which they work
after graduation. In this field alone
they should be able to render great
service in helping to reduce the high

WHEAT SELLS At $40
Highest Price IN Many YeArs-BcfOrc
War Brought IS Gents.

Baltimore. Md. March ao.--A grain
receiver at the chamber of commerce
yesterday said he had sold No. 2. red
Western wheat at $2.20 n bushel. This
is the record here for many years for
this grade, and the merchant who
made the sale said he felt almost
ashamed to take the price.
He referred to the fact that just
prior to the outbreak of the European
war the same grade of wheat sold
In this market at rs to so cents a
bushel. This comparison serves to
show the extreme advance within the
'wo years and a half of the war. and
most Of the dealers attribute the high
price to the demands growing out OF
that struggle.
This sale was somewhat of special
transaction. as sthe quoted prices for
wheat did not reach this figure, though
they approximate It, Offerings OF No.
2 red Western were taken at $2.19
quite freely, though the supply for
sale was comparatively limited. No.
2 red sold at Sal 1 l-2 and closed at
this price bid. while the Western
grade closed at s21s bushel
