BARBERRY BUSH ERADICATION.

The house to house canvass of the
cities of Wisconsin for the eradication
of barberry has been finished. This
work is being done by the State De-
partment of Agriculture at the Capt.
toll under the authority of the State
Council of Defense in cooperation
with the c. S. Department of Agri-
culture and the University. The sec
ond canva to find out how many of
these shrubs have been removed was
started a week ago and six counties
in the southwestern part of the state
have already been covered. The few
shrubs remaining have been found
heavily infected with rust and have
been ordered out by law.
Three of the six counties have been
found 100 per cent free. The first to
go 'over the top" was Richland coun-
ty in April, followed by Crawford
county in May, and Green county early
in June. Grant county stood fourth
with "a per cent removed; Iowa had
go per cent and Lafayette 81 per cent
out. In many of the towns the only
shrubs remaining were on the prop
erty Of non-residents who had not
been reached.
The best record in this section was
made by Mineral Point. Twenty-sev-
en- owners with 1888 shrubs were
found in the first scouting, every one
of which had been removed before the
second visit. Dodgeville in the same
county gets the BOBBY prize, with
IL owners and 81 shrubs, only half
of which had been removed before the
legal notice was served.
State Entomologist Of the State De-
partment of Agriculture, DR.. Ball, re
ports that the campaign is now being
carried on in Sank. Dane, Rock, Wal
worth and Jefferson counties, and will
be extended to the north and east as
fast as the ground can be covered.

GILBERT GETS new
SUGAR RULING

H. W. Gilbert, federal food admins
traitor for Wayne county, has received
information in regard to the new SUI
gar ruling from federal authorities
This ruling changes the allowance to
three pounds per capita per month,
and permits the purchase of month S
supply for family at one time.
The regulations concerning dealers
semi-monthly report has also been
changed and dealers are now required
to make report only once month.
The government calls the food ad-
ministrator's attention to the fact that
sugar consumers should be very care
full in the purchase of sugar. as there
is danger that with the present oppor-
tunity to buy months supply at once,
the grocerymen may dispose of the
supply on hand in the wholesale
houses. There will be sugar enough
for everybody, but the government re-
quests that people be as liberal as pos
sible. so that there win be no shortage
in any one district.
The wholesalers as we'll as the re-
tailers have sugar certificates that
must be cancelled according to the
rules and regulations and until these
certificates are taken up and read
justed, there is a possibility of being
somewhat short of sugar In some dis
tricts. Therefore, the government re-
quests the public not to make a run
on the merchants for sugar for short
period of time, giving them an oppor
tunity to fortify their stocks so they
will be in position to furnish sugar to
everybody. &

EVERYBODY
USING TONSILINE!

The Spanish influenza epidemic has
meant a wonderful increase in the
sale of TonsiIine-The National Sore
Throat Remedy.
The moment medical authorities
advised frequent use of an effective
gargle to sterilize the throat, which
these deadly germs must use as a
gateway and breeding ground in en-
tering the body, countless families
went to their medicine shelf or sent
to the nearest druggist for a bottle of
Tonsiline.
Also, the majority of those afflicted
with this dreaded malady found them
selves suffering from decidedly sore
threats and many of them have re-
newed their faith in this time tried
remedy.
For more than a quarter of a cen
fury Tonsiline has been relieving most
of the sore threats in the territory
where it was sold. This record stamps
it as being particularly indicated
right now as a preventive and relief
in doing it's share toward ending the
present situation. 1t is as safe as a
Liberty Bond.
