AN APPEAL

Leymore Johnson, a child six years
of age, was recently criminally as
saulted and outrageously abused by
one, Frank Saladino, a young Itali-
an. September 10Th the case was call
ed in the Municipal court and for some
reason unexplained at present the ac-
cused was permitted to go and the
case apparently abandoned by the au-
thoritics. 1t would seem that this is
a fit case for the serious consideration
of all believers of justice and the due
administration Of the law. Private
counsel has been employed and money
is needed to defray expenses.
Now, l, as president of the Coop
erative Development and Progressive
Association Of the State of Wiscon-
sin, do hereby call upon every mem
Der of said association and all believ-
ers in fair play and justice to con-
tribute to this expense as it is now i'm
possible to say to what ends it may be
necessary to go to secure the proper
administration Of the law in respect
to this foul crime.
Contributions may be sent to Miss

alton, at 1T North Washington ST.,

In 1912, the term of office of the
s. &. Nj. was extended by the ar.
bitrary adjournment two years. In
1914, the term of Office was again
extended for two years by fraud
and denial of representation at
the ballot box, to the opposition
candidates to the present S. G. NJ.
In 1916, term of office was again
extended two years by suspension
and expulsion of an entire Juris-
diction, and, in 1918, further at
tempt was made to extend office
two years by passing a void act
to postpone the 10Th b. NJ. G. un-

Dear JoSey:
| promised to write You more
fully at some future date. | just
sent you a letter a day or so ago.
In these parts, so many things
transpire within few days. In
week, the changes and expert
enccs are TOO numerous and varied
to relate.
Last Sunday at this hour. | was
on IA hurried cross country trip to
work i'll a previously quiet sector
that had become suddenly active.
Our men and selves arrived in
time The big guns have been
barking and the shells falling.
The noise is simply terrific. Twas
deafening at first but like other
things. it is capable Of becoming
used to. The most interesting
thing to see is an air battle. The
enemy planes come over and en-
gage ours. A real fight ensues
with the breaks either even or in
our favor.
Can you imagine Sunday being
half gone before you realize that
it is Sunday at all |? Such was my
experience this morning. Some
one asked the day of the week and
! had to start counting from last
Sunday in order to know today.
| never thought | could come to
that.
see now | shall have to close
this letter. Some excitement is
on. An air plane is passing drop

bombardment on the hill in front
Of us is raising all kinds Of dust.

of July 6. was more than glad
to get it.
The papers you sent have not
been received as yet hut ! am sure
they will come in due course.
The boys were all glad to have
a word of remembrance from you.
There is nothing to write Stran-
ger than the things you are read
ing in the daily press. We are in
the midst of it and bet your life
we are doing our share. We are
not expecting our deeds to be full
ly known until we ourselves are
positioned to make them known.
In the mean time, we are going
on, bleeding and dying and trust
ing in the divine power to keep
some of us over to tell the other
generations of our fight to make
the world Il safe place for -----
men to live in.
Write me again soon and | will

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
All poultry raisers should become
more familiar with the value of sorg-
hum grains, especially the Blackhull
kafir, as a feed for hens They are
excellently adapted for this purpose as
the grains are nutritious, and in size
they are small enough so that they are
readily fed without cracking or crush
ing.
An investigation made in 1908 show
ed more than 100 firms engaged in the
manufacture Of over 200 brands of
poultry feed. Figures furnished at
that time by 33 of these firms showed
an annual output of about 10000 tons
of these products. Approximately one
third of this quantity, or 10000 tons,
consisted of the seed of Blackhull kafir.
This was used mostly in mixture with
other grains, such as corn, wheat,
screenings, etc. 1t probably is safe
estimate that kaf1r or other grain
sorghum seed forms fully 25 per cent of
the prepared poultry feed sold in this
country.
There is steady demand for these
