APPLY FOR SOLDIERS BALLOTS

A man who is away from home on bust
ness trip or fishing trip at election time is en-
titled under the laws of the state to cast his vote
by mail whether at the primary or the general
election. There seems to be no good reason why
a man in the military or naval service OF the Unit
ed States should not have the same privilege.
There are physical obstacles in the way OF
sending ballots to our soldiers and sailors who are
abroad, and in receiving back the ballots properly
marked. But there is no more reason why SOL
dier who is stationed at Camp Dodge or Camp
Funston or any other camp or cantonment IN
the United States should not do his voting by
mail Just as well as the man who is in Chicago
on business trip, or who has gone to Vermont
to visit his folks. Notwithstanding the attempt
(which was made in the interest of the Townley
machine to deprive soldiers of their primary VOTE
good many of the officials of the state hold that
the law excluding them will not stand, and they
are accordingly sending ballots to soldiers under
the general absent voters law.
This course is being followed by County Audi
/ tor Anderson of Grand Forks county. Ballots
are not sent to absent voters unless application for
them is made, but the county auditor will honor
applications made for absentees by members OF
their families or others properly interested, and
when such application is made, the ballot applied
for will be mailed direct to the address given II
lit is found that the absentee is qualified voter
Friends of soldiers in any of the camps are
urged to take this matter up at once with the
county auditor, in order that their soldier or
sailor friends may not be disfranchised by being
| in the service of the American government

THE NEW REVENUE BILL

The new federal revenue bill must be built
to run for many years. The congressman is
fool who thinks that any old kind of a bill which
"qets the money" will do just because the people
are ready and eager to aid the government in bat
Ting Germany. s".~
This year there are hundreds of income tax
PAYERS where there was one last year. The re-
suit is a growing demand that the new revenue
bill must be big improvement over the present
income tax and excess profits tax.
~, Last fall crooked thinkers in congress rushed
the non-thinkers into passing miscalled excess
profits tax, by crying, "the government needs the
money and this bill will get it.
Just as much money can be raised by taxa
ton that is fair to every man as can be raised by
bill which favors one section Of the country at
the expense of another and which favors one set
of industries at the expense of another set. II
the taxing plan is fair and just, the rates can be
raised when more money is needed and lowered
when less money is needed. If the plan is unfair,
then new plans must be made and new ways OF
taxing adopted whenever there is to be change
in the amount Of money to be raised
The farest tax would be one which makes
every man pay according to his income and which
takes all or nearly all of the increased income
which any man gets because his country is in
war. -
The new revenue bill should be bill which
would work after the war is over just as well as
it does during the war. After the war is over,
the expenses of the government will be greater
than they were before the war. High tariffs will
not be allowed, and the expenses of the govern
ment will be met by inheritance taxes and income
taxes. Common good sense calls for tax law
now which will be so fair that everybody, rich
and poor, will feel that in paying his government
taxes he is doing his duty just as he is when he
pays the grocery bills and rent for his family.
The new revenue bill should be bill which
the separate states can adopt in order to raise
money, in whole or in part, for state, city and
county uses It will be easy for state to adopt
and use an income tax law which has been tried
and tested by the federal government and which
has had each of its words and phrases passed
upon by the United States courts and for which
the governments collection methods and infor-
nation are all prepared and ready.
With good federal income tax law as pat
tern, the taxpayers and state officials could start
in under the same kind of income tax law, with
no confusion, with no doubt as to what the law
meant and with no chance for the lawyers to hold
up the collection Of the tax while they tried to
pull their 22-caliber clients through some imag-
mary loop hole. ".l
This new revenue bill should be such per-
feet tax-gathering machine that when the war is
over, we can slow it down by reducing the rates
and have it still run smoothly and without fric-

LECTURE ON GARDENING"

Last Thursday evening, w. A. Toole
of Baraboo. treasurer of the Wiscon-
sin Horticultural society, gave an in
teresting lecture in the circuit court
room at the court house, on garden
ing" This lecture was given under
the auspices of the Wausau Agricul-
tural committee and Garden club. Mr..
Toole also spoke at the High school
Thursday and at the Marathon Coun-
ty School of Agriculture and Domestic
Economy, Wednesday afternoon.
During his stay in WauSau, Mr..
Toole told of the amateur gardeners
often not being successful because OF
not planning the garden before MAX
ing the same, not preparing the soil
in the right way, planting the seeds
too deep, and not cultivating as often
as necessary during the crop growing
season. He told of unsuccessful gard
ening with trees and shade as him
derances. The garden needs plenty
of sunlight, food and water in order
to get a good crop. All worthless
trees and shrubs should be removed
if in any way keeping the necessities
away from the garden.
In planning garden, Mr.. Toole
stated that all tall plants should be
planted at the north of the garden
the south, for the reason that by so
doing the taller plants will not take
all the sunlight Rows of seed should
be planted from north to. south if
possible. so that sunlight may get at

GARDENING
c.. c..

The problems of war gardens" is
one sof the big problems of the pres
ent day, and it is time we are think
ing and acting. The beginner in gar
dening is apt to attempt too much
A small garden we'll titled is better
than larger one neglected.
Amateur, home, or so called war
gardens may be divided into two
classes; tic small back lot gardens
and the gardens of the more ambi-
tious occupying an entire lot or even
more.
In the small garden confine the list
to kinds requiring but little room such
as: bean, beet, cabbage, carrot, lettuce,
onion, parsnip, pea, radish, spinach
and tomato.
These demand much room, and are
for gardens on a larger scale: sweet
corn, cucumber, squash and pumpkin
and with potatoes should be attempted
only where plenty of land is available.
Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, celery,
endive, egg plant, peppers and lima
beans, are too fancy, and require more
skill to grow than the average anna
teur is apt to possess and should not
be included in the beginners list.
Soil conditions and the taste of the
gardener are factors that should be
considered
In another part of this issue will
be found more on gardening" as
given out by w. A. Toole of Baraboo,
of the Wisconsin horticultural socie-
ty, who was here the past week and
gave some very valuable lectures.

HELP THE OLD FOLKS
A Helping Hand Extended to Many
Old People in Wausau

The infirmities of age are many.
Most old people have a bad back.
The kidneys are often weak.
Or worn out with years of work
Backache means days of misery.
Urinary troubles, nights of unrest
Doans Kidney Pills have helped to
make life easier for many.
They are doing so for old and young.
Wausau people are learning this.
Read the following local endorse
ment
P. A. Mcneil, 62S Mcclellan ST.,
Wausau, says: about four months
ago | caught cold and it settled in
my kidneys and made my back ache.
When l went to flag a train | would
get a stitch in my back trying to get
out of a chair. My back was lame
all the time. The kidney secretions
passed too frequently and were scanty
and burned in passages. 1 got box
of Doan's Kidney Pills and began
using them. To my surprise they re-
lieved the backache and stopped the
burning sensation. Doan's Kidney
Pills are just fine"

both sides. A definite plan for a gar
den is of much importance. Hit-or-
miss garden planting usually gives
poor results. After your garden
spot is selected, measure the same
and then plan the plot. Decide on
location of the different crops. the
distances between the rows, if more
than one crop during the season,
etc. Vegetables should be planted ac-
cording to the size of the tract of
land, as some require much more
room than others.
Mr.. Toole also hit upon the i'm
portance of fertiliZing, and that great
care must be taken in this. Cultivat-
ing the garden crops is more neces-
sary than watering, and especially
more so than watering with hose.
Indoor planting was also taken up
by the lecturer as very hard for an
amateur without some assistance from
an experienced person, in order to
bring about success. TRANSFORMING
was also mentioned at this time.
! The garden talks by Mr.. Toole will
undoubtedly be of much value to many
of the gardeners in Wausau this
spring. There is a great deal more
work connected with the making of
a garden and running it in a scientific
way than one realizes before start
ing out.

Arthur Scherbarth appeared in
municipal court during the week and
pleaded guilty to a charge of assault

With two heavy snow storms in
March, our people have seldom had
to wade through so much slush and
water as they have had to this spring.
Some of the catch basins have frozen
up so hard that it has been difficult to
thaw them out, therefore the condi-
tons in some parts of the city have
been anything but pleasant for pedes-
trians.
Upon a charge of neglecting to care
for his stock, embracing three cattle,
one horse, one heifer and a flock of
chickens, Herman Koepp of the town

and is to have his hearing Thursday

WHEN JOHNNY COMES
FLYING HOME

The following poetry was written
by Wausau lady:
When Johnny comes flying home
again,
Hurrah, Hurrahl
He'll arrive, OF course, in an aeroplane,
Hurrah, HurrahI
The boys and girls will all rush out
To see what the stir is all about,
And they'll all go wild with glee
When Johnny comes flying home,
And they'll all go wild with glee
When Johnny comes flying home.
His mothers heart will be filled with
joy
Hurrah, Hurrah
When she clasps once more her dear
brave boy,
Hurrah, Hurrah
The tears will run down her cheeks
like rain,
But twill be for joy and not for pain,
And We'll all feel gay when Johnny
comes flying home,
And we'll all feel gay, when Johnny
comes flying home.
John was off to war in IT
Hurrah, Hurrah!
But he'll soon be back again | ween
Hurrah, Hurrah!
The submarines will be no more,
The kaiser's ships will be strewn on
the shore,
And we'll all be gay, when JOHNNY
comes flying home
And We'll all be gay, when Johnny
comes flying home.
Yes the submarines will have to go,
Hurrah, Hurrah,
Uncle Sam DEGREES that this is so,
Hurrah, Hurrah!
And the German forts will be blown up
AS well as the shops of Mr.. Krupp,
And We'll all be gay, when Johnny
comes flying home
And we'll all be gay, when Johnny
comes flying home.
What will become of that Hindenburg
line?
Hurrah, Hurrahi
1t will be sent way back across the
Rhine
Hurrah, Hurrah
And our girls once more will have
chance,
When our boys return from sunny
France,
And we'll all be gay, when Johnny
comes flying home.
And we'll all be gay, when Johnny
comes flying home.
