"The greatest single asset of the
State Of Wisconsin is the ten millions
of acres of undeveloped land in North

the businessman and statesman. With
the soil, rainfall and abundance of
water adjacent to the greatest markets
Of the world, this is without question,
great task and is for the immediate
future. The returning soldier should
a piece of this land, and it should be
also the attitude Of the National and
State Governments, that he be pro-
vided with adequate means to COM

Procedure should be taken for the fl

should be that the rurally minded man
who has come from the countries of
Europe, or who is now in the cities, or
the seaports, where he has been pre-

to proceed to the goal of his ambition,
should be aided in the desire to,
namely: own land, with which he
may be we'll acquainted. The farm
problem will be one of the greatest
problems our country must face.
There should be no delay or no mig

for the soldier, the worker, or for the
tiller of the soil, to have his ambition
realized"

DOCTORS SAY
CALOTAbS ARE
BEST FOR COLDS

According to the worlds greatest
physicians and medical experts, cal
omel is the best and only dependable
remedy for breaking up a cold over
night or cutting short an attack of
sore throat, deep-seated cough, in
fuenza or lagrippe. Now that science
has purified calomel of all its nausea
and dangerous qualities, the new kind
of calomel, called "Calotabs" is even
more popular than the old style.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with swallow of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your diet.
work or pleasures. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your
whole system is purified and refresh
ed. Calotabs are sold only in origi-
nal sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist recommends
and guarantees Calotabs and will re-
fund the price if you are not delight
ed with them.-adv.

SOUTHEASTERN DEPT.
SECOND OVER TOP IN U. S.

Atlanta Ga-The Southeastern
Department went over the top in the
United War Work Campaign with
flying colors and enjoys the destina-
ton of being the second department
i'll the country to oversubscribe its
quota. The Southern department was
the first to pass its goal
Indications were that when final
reports were received, the total sum
subscribed to the United War Work
campaign in the Southeastern De
partment will be between 100000
and $l0,000,000 The extending OF
the campaign enabled the department
TO go beyond all expectations. The
total amount raised will be more
than fifty per cent over-subscrip-
ton.
On a basis of $40, 100000 as the
amount to be raised nationally, the
quota of the Southeastern Depart
ment was $6,820,006, and this mark
was reached and passed on Saturday,
to the keenest qualification of all per-
sons concerned.
Georgia was the 1rst state in the
Southeastern Department to go over
the top. The other states finished in
the following order: Mississippi, Ten
nessee, North Carolina and Alabama,
South Carolina and Florida.
The Southeastern department was
thoroughly combed for subscriptions
and the generous responses of the
people i'll this section of the country
has been the cause of favorable and
appreciated comment in all parts of
the United States.
The people in all seven states of
the Southeastern department gave
freely and willingly to the fund for
the seven great war-working organi-
cations. In no other previous drives
have the states Of the south led the
country in subscriptions.
r. H. King, campaign director for
the Southeastern department, has
only the highest praise for the lead
ers and workers who made the splen-
did oversub scription possible.
