HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
TO HELP FARMERS
PLAN TO UTILIZE LABOR OF
YOUTHS ON FARMS The
COMING SPRING.
WILL BE TAUGHT FARMING
Farmers Asked to Instruct Pupils
During Winter in Elements Of
Work About 10000 Are
Available for Service.

Madison -- WISCONSIN, high schools
culture in which the boys will be
taught the rudiments OF farming, so
that, with the cooperation of the coun-
ty councils of defense and the county
agricultural agents, they can be placed
on Wisconsin farms early next spring.
The idea originated at meeting of
the agricultural committee of the Wis
consin State Council of Defense. This
committee was faced with the problem
of securing farm labor to offset not
only the normal shortage but the in
creased shortage due to the war. OBJ
yiously laborers can not be secured in
any numbers from the cities J. b.
Borden, assistant state superintendent
of public instruction, suggested the
utilization of the boy power of the
high schools
There are $4,000 high school boys in
the state. About 5000 of this number
live on farms, and 5000 are employed
during the summer in the cities. The
remaining 10000 are an available re-
serve for service on Wisconsin farms.
The main points in the scheme are
the following:
Speeding up OF all high school work
so that the normal course will be com
pleted in April, enabling boys to leave
school when the spring farm work be
gins.
Introduction into the high schools
of special laboratory course In agri-
culture.
Formation of an organization Of
Big Brothers among the farmers and
retired farmers of the state who will
volunteer to take high school boys into
their homes for week ends and teach
them the rudiments of farming.
Campaign of education among the
farmers through the county agricutu-
raj agents and the farmers Institutes,
In order TO make clear the new move
ment.
Survey carried on through the rural
schools which will show the labor and
seed grain needs of the state
Meetings were held in every county
on Jan Is of school men, agricultural
agents. and farmers to institute the
new plan.

Sometimes butter made on the farm,
particularly In winter, becomes mot
tied, and even though 1t may be very
good flavor, when put upon the mar
ket, 1t Is strongly Disseminated
against by the purchaser. AS this diff
ficulty is one Of workmanship, 1t can
be overcome by the application OF
proper methods on the part of the but
ter-maker.
Notifies are caused primarily by an
uneven distribution of salt In the but

churning, washing. and working 1t at

MILLIONS OF FRY READY
Conservation Commission Wants APP
picatons to BE Sent in Early for
Fish for Stocking.

Madison--The conservation commits
sion wishes all who desire fish fry for
stocking public waters of inland lakes
and streams to file their applications
at once so they may be recorded be-
fore the time for distribution in the
spring. Application blanks may be OBJ
tanned by writing to the conservation
commission.
The commission expects TO have a
large number of brook trout fry and
lingering to send out this year Prep
arations have been made at the Bay
field hatchery for the holding of a
large number of brook trout fry until
fall when they will b. distributed for
planting the streams that overflow
their banks at time of freshets.
They will have several millions of
rainbow trout fry sent out. This va
riety is better adapted to the larger
spring water streams than to the
smaller ones.
The department will save million
or more of the brown trout variety for
applicants who wish them for certain
streams. If applicants desire brown
trout they must make special note of
same
They also expect to have many mil
lions Of pike fry for the many inland
lakes
The fish crop is a very important
one and I'll people desiring fish for
stocking public waters this year should
file their applications without delay.

WILL HANDLE ICE AND FUEL
City of Oshkosh to Garry Out Wishes
of People Without Delay in Es-
tablishing Municipal Plants.

Oshkosh-The city of Oshkosh will
be one of the first in the state to en-
gage in the fuel and ice business for
the benefit OF the consuming public.
At special election held recently the
proposition OF whether the city should
establish fuel plant carried by ma
jority of 1924 votes. and that for an
ice plant by margin of S51.
The election resulted from efforts by
the Oshkosh Trades and Labor Coun-
Gil, which consists of representatives
of all the union labor organizations of
the city. More than 1000 electors
signed petition for the election.
1t is proposed by the commission
council to carry out the wishes of the
people without delay, and the first step
will be to obtain estimates of the cost
of ice and fuel plants to be owned by
the taxpayers and then issue bonds for
establishing them.

churnlng, washing and working should
be avoided, because they produce so
firm a butter that IL is only with great
difficulty that the salt can be worked
uniformly into 1t. High temperatures
of churning, washing and working
must also be avoided to prevent an alb
normal loss of fat In the buttermilk
and also the making of greasy,
leaky butter.
Great variations in temperature dur
ing the manufacturing process should
always be avoided. Under normal
conditions the temperature of the
wash water should be the same as,
or within two degrees of, that of the
buttermilk
Working in Cold Room.
When the churn room is so cold that
the butter becomes chilled before
working is completed. notified butter

this 1t is preferable to increase the
amount of working rather than to

vented by using methods that will In

MARRIAGE LAW is PUT OVER
No Action Will Be Taken BY Leeisla-

Amend Statute.

Madison-Gov. +. l.. Philips desire
to limit the special session of the leg
islature to the really vital matters
caused him to omit from the call any
suggestions for amendment of the
new marriage law of the state.
Petitions asking the governor to
have he law amended at the special
session and thus stop the rush of
Wisconsin couples to Illinois towns to
marry, were received from Milwaukee,
Racine, Kenosha and other cities near
the Illinois line.
THE governor went over the re-
quests for action at the special SEES
sion several times, trimming here and
trimming there in his efforts to limit
the work of the legislature as much as
possible. The marriage law was put
over until the next regular session, ="

STATE AID LAW TO STAND
Governor Will Not Ask Legislators to
Take Up Dependency Statute at
Coming Special Session.

Madison Because the federal aid
to the dependents of soldiers fails to
meet all of the situations that arise in
Wisconsin it was decided by Gov.
Philip not to attempt to remodel the
law at this session of the Legislature
When the federal aid law was pass
ed it was generally expected that the
executive would then ask for the re-
peal OF the Wisconsin aid statute on
the same subject.
I'VE have found that quick aid can
be given under the Wisconsin law in
emergency cases, where it would be
impossible under the federal act, "
said Adjt.-Gen. Holway. For that
reason it has been decided to leave
the Wisconsin law as it is in full OPP
Grafton, because of the emergency re-
suits that can be obtained under the
act"

Madison - German aliens in Wis
consin, estimated to number over &c.
900, are given five days, beginning at
6 o'clock a. m, on Monday, Feb. 4,
and ending at o'clock p. IN. on Satur-
day, Feb. 8, to appear before police
chiefs in cities OF 5000 population and
over and before postmasters in places
Of less population, for registration.
Failure to do so will result in in
ternment for the duration of the war
and possible deportation and seizure
OF property after.
Regarding those who are required TO
register, the instructions received by
the various United States marshals
has the following to say:
"All natives, citizens, denizens or
subjects of the German empire or i'm.
perial German government, being
males of the age of IA years or up
wards who are within the United
States and not actually naturalized as
American citizens are required to reg
lister as alien enemies
The fact that he has taken out his
first citizenship papers does not re-
leve any German subject or native of
Germany from registration. Only
full and complete citizenship makes
this unnecessary.
Females are not alien enemies I'M
der the present statutory interpreta-
ton and therefore are not required to
register.
Every alien must be photographed
and his finger prints taken. Their af-
fidavits of registration are to be exc
cuted in triplicate and are detailed,
covering practically their entire life
history and ancestorial connections.
