MUST HAVE LICENSE TO TRAP
Game Laws Changed in That
Respect

Trapping is not allowed this year
under a hunting license. The law
provides that a special trapping IL
cense must be bought. The fee is
81 and the license may be obtained
from the county clerk. Boys under
Is years of age and persons who are
not citizens of the United States may
secure trapping licenses, but they
will not be allowed to carry fire arms.
Every person to whom a license to
trapp is issued will receive blank
upon which to report to the Conser-
walton Commission at Madison, the
number of each variety of animals
taken, to whom the furs We're sold
and the prices received. This report
must be made on or before June first,
next, after the expiration of his IL
cense. A fine of $50 is provided in
case of failure to make this report
County Clerk Moore is now sup
piled with copies of the game laws
which may be had upon application
These books cover the laws for
1917-1918, and until July 1st 1919,
so save them as they will probably
be hard to get next year owing to the
high cost of paper and printing.

A DARE ISSUED AND ACCEPTED
yiroaua Challenges the Kickapoo to a
Shoot.

A. D. Grouse received a challenge
from DR.. Butt of Viroqua to enter
into rife shooting contest at 200
yards, otfhand. DR.. Butt represents
five shooters from Viroqua and Lib
erty Pole and Mr. Grouse can pick
FIVE men from the Kickapoo. of
course the challenge is accepted and
the match will be staged at Viro-
qua in the near future. This distance
of 200 yards is quite ways and our
shooters have never shot at this dis
lance so they ask for a double shoot
as follows: Ten shots 200 yards with
a rest and ten shots 200 yards off
hand. This will make an interesting
contest as it will bring together some
Of the best rife shooters in his part
of the country. The losing team will
stand the expense of dinner at Ho-
tel Fortney and we expect that this
dinner will not cost the Kickapoogians
anything either.-Viola News.

BossY ENLIsTs FOR THE WAR
Report Westby-CoOn Valley Test
ing Association

The association this year reports
374 cows entering the test, a slight
increase over last season. The test
has shown some very good cows.
The minimum production of pounds
in butterfat and pounds in milk have
been placed at 40 and 1000 pounds,
respectively.
From Herman Buxton's Jersey
herd registered cow leads, producing
So pounds butterfat for the month.
He also had four other cows produc-
ing over 40 pounds butterfat. a
grade Jersey was reported from a.
c. Anderson's herd. Albert Getter
& Sons report one grade Gurnsey
at 44.5 pounds. Two COWS from
Hugh Buchanan's Jersey herd are
reported above the 40 ma-l,. Yer
nonCounty Asylum reports three Jer-
sey cows eligible for entry, one do
ing remarkably well, producing 49.6
pounds at the close Of her lactation
period. The Aims House has two
cows, each giving more than 1000
pounds of milk for the month. Out
of Delbert Kellicut's small herd of
natives one produced 42.5 pounds of
butterfat, and of the other native
herds doing exceptionally well H. P.
Hotties herd test showed up two cows
while A. E. Gronning's small herd
showed up another 40 pound COW.
Out of the highest producing herd
last year owned by Melvin Stafslien
three cows produced from Al to
46 pounds; also A. H. Peterson, who
owns another Jersey herd reports
three cows producing 45, AZ and 81
pounds each.
This report is a little weak owing
to a large number of cows ending
their lactation period. AS the test
ing advances the association expects
to report some big records. This
test report tells story, watch for
it again next month.
Hoover, the government food COM
missioner, says the COW is among the
best recruits for the war. Bossy's
services are as much needed as al
most any activity in the great
world war,
