TROOPS RETURN PRESENTS
Government Will Not Allow Soldiers
to Burden Themselves With Bag
gage in Excess to Regular Quota.

Camp Douglas-As the day for the
departure of the boys from Camp
Douglas for the south approaches, the
men are sending home suit cases and
trunks crammed with the gifts of
thoughtful friends, because they will
not be allowed to overburden them
selves with baggage on the trip.
The soldiers will be allowed to car
ry nothing except the regulation army
equipment furnished by the govern
ment, except possibly few small
knicklmacks. Extra clothing from
home cannot be taken along. Many
presents have been sent to the boys,
varying from swagger sticks to life
preservers. These must be left be-
hind, Gen. Parker may lift the re
strictions after the men are estab
lished in Camp Arthur, but until that
time they will have to be content
with the regulation allowance of the
government.

Second Highest in State.

Oshkosh-At conference here of
the county council of defense, the

Dor council and the coal dealers, it
was resolved to ask Gov. Philip to
appoint man to come here and make
a survey of the coal situation as to
freight rates, yards, maintenance, de
livery and overhead, and to inspect
the coal dealers books. The dealers
declared that handling coal here was
more expensive than anv other place

ton by the senate as soon as the pend
Ing war tax bill is disposed of is
planned by administration leaders.
Not n material amendment was added

managed to obtain the adoption of a
compromise amendment to exempt
from taxation forever interest on

wanted To make II $4,000, but Demo-
cratic Leader Kltchin would not agree
to that.

COAL SUPPLY Is ASSURED
Milwaukee viii Have Enough Anthra-
cite for Winter If Receipts
Are Maintained.

Milwaukee--If the present rate of
receipts can be maintained, Milwaukee
ought TO have enough hard coal to last
through the winter, the fuel board of
the Milwaukee county council of de-
Tense concludes in a report, which
adds, however, that it may be neces-
sary TO substitute a certain amount of
soft coal for hard.
The fuel board concludes from an
examination of the various items of
expense that enter into the bringing
of coal from the mines to the bins of
the consumers that "the present prices
of anthracite in Milwaukee are not I'M
fairly high, considering the presidents
mine prices recently announced,
transportation charges, and the costs
OF handling"

PREDICT BIG CROP
IN BADGER STATE
SMALL GRAINS SHOW LARGER
YIELD BUT FROST MAY
DAMAGE LATE CORN.
FROST DOES HEAVY DAMAGE
Potatoes, Beans and Corn Suffer Loss
es Running Into Thousands
Dollars Even Tobac-
CO Is Hit.

Madison-Small grains in Wiscon-
sin are showing yields fully up to or
greater than the estimates made dur
ing the growing season, according to
the joint crop report, national and
state, just issued here. The potato
crop continues to improve. especially
in the large potato growing counties
in the central part of the state No
damage from late blight is yet re-
ported, but frost has injured the vines
in some of the northern counties,
while drought in the territory south of
Madison will curtail yields.
The corn crop is not in a satisfac-
tory condition, being from two to three
weeks late. A large percentage of the
crop is in danger of being injured by
frost before maturity. While consid-
cradle corn in southern Wisconsin is
commencing to ripen, it will require
favorable weather up to Oct. L with
out killing frosts to insure an aver
age crop for the state as a whole.
Estimates upon the 1917 yield of i'm
portant crops, with comparison of &C
tual production last year. are as fol-
lows: Corn-1917, 56,7O0000 bushels;
1916, 60,840,000 bushels. Potatoes
1917, 10000, 600 bushels; 1916, 13,600,-
900 bushels. Spring Wheat-1917, g.
100000 bushels; 1916. 1,776,0V0 bush
els. Oats-1917, 90,300,000 bushels;
1915. S1.400,0OO bushels Barley-1917,
19,9O0,000 bushels; 1916, 1S,S00,0O0
bushels. Tobacco - 1917, $500, 900
pounds; 1916, 55,753 900 pounds. Hay
1917, 100000 tons; 1916, 1901 900
tons. Apples 49, 1917, $4,000 barrels;
1916, $4,000 barrels.
1t is estimated that approximately
$4,000 acres Of beans were planted in
the state this year, or nearly double
the acreage of last year.
Heavy Losses From Frost.
Reports from northern and western
Wisconsin indicate that the frost of
Sept. has damaged the potato, corn
and bean crops to the extent of thou
sands OF dollars.
