$II4.5O Per acre
LAKE COUNTY LAND REACHES
HIGH PRICE AT AUCTION.

The B. A. Raad farm of 800 acres
was sold Tuesday of this week at auc-
ton by the administrator, liver Rad,
and brought the tidy price of $114.50
per acre. The buyer was Peter Heg-
dial, who owns the adjoining half sec
ton. The land is situated in the
north part of the county, in Nunda
township, nine miles north of Madi-
SON. While this is not a record price
for Lake county land, it is a fine
showing at an auction sale.

ARCHIE CARMICHAEL LOSES HIS
LIFE AT LAKE MADISON.

An accident which cast a gloom
over the Lake Madison summer re-
sort occurred about $3.50 O'Clock last
evening, when Archie Carmichael, of
this city, was drowned. The young
man with others was in bathing and
attempted to swim from the end of
the pier at the boathouse to a raft
which is anchored about 40 feet out
in the lake. After swimming a short
distance toward the raft he appar-
emily decided he was unable to reach
! II and turned about and was swim
ming toward the shore when 1t was
seen by those at the pier that he was
in distress. Calling to him he replied
that he feared he could not reach
shore and almost Immediately sank.
1t was only the work of a moment
for young men in bathing to reach
the spot where he went down and
rescue him, bringing him to shore
and summoning physicians from the
city who were on the ground in a
few moments. Their efforts at re-
suscitation were apparently meeting
with success, when the unfortunate
young man commenced vomiting vio-
lently and afterward collapsed and
died.
Deceased was aged 81 years, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. j. Carmichael,
Eighth street NV. He was a mem
Der of the June graduating class of
the State Normal school and had
charge as business manager of the
school year book, The Anemone, this
year. Besides his parents three sis
tiers and n brother survive, Mrs. j.
w. Gabhert and Mrs. B. J.. Smith. of
this city, and Mrs. Geo. Baker, of
Minneapolis. Brother resides on a
farm near Oldham.
The remains were brought from
the lake and taken to Hallenbeck's
undertaking rooms and prepared fol-
burial. The funeral will be held Sat
urday afternoon.

DAYLIGHT SAYING.

As the New York World points cut, the unification of the railroads of the country under government operation removes the greatest obstacle to coun- tryWide adoption of the daylight say ing plan. With all the railroads under government control it would be a sim pie matter to make the schedules CO., form to the new time created by put ting the clocks one hour ahead, as provided for in the bill passed by the senate and soon to go before the house for concurrence. In fact, the daylight saving plan must be applied nationally in order to be a success; it's adoption by scattered communities merely re- suits in confusion and bother In all the European countries in which it has been adopted it has resulted in enor- nous savings in fuel and artificial light and in greatly increased produc- tion, and experts are of the opinion that the gains in both directions would be even greater in the United States. The same necessities of war which have driven other countries to it prob ably will force the United States into line, but whether as war measure Or as practical business expedient, the daylight saving plan is sound and sensible proposition, and it's adoption would be great benefit to the country in any event.

We hear much of the standard of living, and that what a man earns now does not buy as much as it used to. Well, what else does he expect? Who is paying for this war, and who SUD- ports the boys on the front? Why, everybody does, by simply living on less than he used to live on, says Ohio State Journal. It is the difference be- tween the standard of living now and the standard before the war that is paying for our part in the battle for democracy. Where do you suppose the $30 month paid the soldier boys and the cost of their food and clothes come from? Out of. the air2 No, indeed. It all comes from the self-denial of pa- triOtc men and women who accept the burdens of the war days without mur- mur or complaint.

Somehow or other it is hard for some of us to realize that work is not a curse that the man who would find real happiness can find no better place to seek 1t than in his work.

No factory should be closed and no person should be deprived of work as long as the products can ind a market unless other work can be found for the plant and the toilers, which is of more importance to the nation.

We must practice economy, but, as President McGarrah of the Mechanics and Metals Bank of New Yorh says: "Ill advised and i'm petuous economy, meaning unefnploy- ment and closed factories, would be demoraliziL :.

Money wisely spent is not wasted; money spent for nonessentiais is put. to poor use. but remains in circulation. Money. hoarded is valueless while in that condition.
