Calls States to Protest

the governments Of tho FREQ states:
In deep distress and weighed down
by cares. the German people has
waited through the months of the

Germans for the return of an answer,

WHAT TWO MEN
DID WITH HENS
Profits Came in One Case and
Not in AnOther-The
Reason
MEAT SCRAPS INCREASE EGGS
McNairy County, Tennessee, and other
Counties in Tennessee are Using
More Profit-Making Feed as Result
of Such Experiences.

Meat scraps increase egg production.
jim Davis and Fred Hickey, neigh
bors, living in the hilly section of Me-
Marry county, Tennessee, met in town
In September to haul out Commercial
fertilizer for fan wheat planting. The
merchant who supplied them had pur-
chased a ton of kiin-dried meat scraps.
These meat scraps We're nothing but
the cracklings and refuse meat scraps
from the rendering kettle, which were
ground up into meal, and which con-
tanned 80 per cent protein. BY feed
ing one part meat scraps with three
parts ground corn to hens, one would
greatly increase his egg yield, as the
neat scraps would furnish what the
hens found in the cary spring in grubs
and worms not available in the late
summer and winter.
Mr.. Hickey felt that 1t was worth
giving a trial.
Thirty days later the neghbors met
at the store for the first time since Mr..
Hickey had made his purchase.
Each neighbor had some fifty old
hens and seventy-five April Matched
pullets that began laying the first of
September. BY referring to his books
the merchant told how many eggs had
been purchased from each. After
feeding meat scraps for thirty days
Mr.. Hickey had sold exactly GO dozen
eggs, whole Mr.. DAVIS had sold IA
dozen and ten. Other han meat
scraps, they had been feeding the same
feeds, and their fowls were Of the
same breeding.
As result of this meeting, Mr..
Hickey bought five sacks for future
use, and Mr. Davis bought three

Getting Rid of Colds

The easiest and quickest way to get rid
of cold is to take Chamberlain e
Cough Remedy. This preparation has
been In use for many years and its
value fully proven. No matter what
remedy'you use. however, care must BE-
taken not tocontract second cold before
you have recovered from the first one,
and there Is serious danger Of this. A
man of middle age or older should 20

weakened him, he succeeded in deliv-
ering the message to comrade, who
delivered it in the desired time.
Everett is very proud Of the war
cross, and rightfully he should. Prairie
du Sac should be proud OF it. too, and
be proud of him, because Of the brav-
cry displayed while fighting for his
country-for us.

One Hundred Miles and Over
Three Counties
(From Mondays daily.)

A chase Of over one hundred miles
across Columbia, Marquette, and Sauk
counties has eliminated in the arrest
in Baraboo of John (Jack) Smith at
the home Of his parents on Grove
street. The arrest was made by Chief
of Police S. A. -Pelton ten minutes
after he had received word from the

wanted and is the result of clever
work by the police departments Of

reported to the district attorneys

disappeared from his home on the
South Side in Milwaukee. This cre-
ated strong suspicion of guilt on the
part of Smith, and Sheriff Robert
Buech dispatched his chief deputy.
Bernard Gettelman, on the job.
A c1ew was followed to Portage by
Deputy Gettelman. Upon arriving
there all trace of the fugitive was lost.
Deputy Gettelman conferred with
Sheriff Fred Schultz, and soon a clew
was traced to Marquette county, wind
ing up in Endeavor. 1t was learned
that Smith left there suddenly and re
turned toward Portage.
Found in Baraboo
The officers took up the chase by
auto. Crossing Marquette county they
passed through Columbia and into
Sank county, where their man was
traced to Baraboo. A wire was sent
to Baraboo and Chief of Police Pelton
landed the man as he was trying to
hide at the home of his parents.
When Deputy Gettelman and Sher-
iff Schultz arrived Chief Of Police Pei
ton had Smith ready for them and he
was taken to Portage and landed In

MAKING TRUCKS
AT LOCANSVILLE

The Wisconsin Truck company has
built new building at Loganyille and
is now making machines in the new
structure. The trucks were formerly
made in a garage, but the two kinds
of work did not go well together.
Trucks are being shipped to Indiana
and other states, the demand far ex-
ceeding the supply. The trucks are
of the two-ton class. The plant is
owned by A. Leischer and sons, and
they expec; to greatly increase tne
output soon. Mr.. Leischer has two
sons making trucks in Minnesota and
these two sons purchase all the mate
rial for the Loganville plant. In that
way material is purchased at a low fig
ure. 1t costs about five dollars truck
to haul the material from Reedsburg
and this extra cost is made up in re-
duced expenses, living and other costs
in village being far below that of a
city. One of the oil wagons in Bar
aboo uses Loganville truck.

LUMBER FAMINE
NOW PREDICTED

That lumber will be scarce and high
in price this fall is the prediction
made by William Mcclure, who is
visiting relatives in Baraboo. Mr.. Nc
CURE, a former employee in the local
post office, and now salesman for a
large wholesale lumber company in
Minneapolis, states that the last price
list on lumber has been withdrawn,
and marked increase in many kinds
is noted.
The raise in price is ascribed large
ly to the demand for shipment sof lum-
ber abroad to aid in reconstruction
work, and to the fact that compara-
lively few trees for lumber purposes
were cut during the past year and the
supply is running low.
t. r. Deppe of the Deppe-C Carpenter
Lumber company states that whole
sale prices on some kinds Of lumber is
already higher than the price at which
he has been selling it.

GREATS TROUBLE
A historical Bldg
TH ET
Two Reedsburg Young Men Are
+, Arrested, Brought to Baraboo
and Fined

In Justice of the Peace Adolph An
was fined $50 and costs of 1924 for
assault and battery, and Gust Troeder
was assessed $40 and the same amount
of costs as Nadler on the charge of
being drunk and disorderly. The fines
came as the result Of charges pre-
ferred by Park superintendent Atwood
Smith and are the aftermath of trou-
bic that occurred on Sunday at Devils
Lake state park during the afternoon.
1t seems that when a Reedsburg car
containing Nader, Troeder and others
entered the park and stopped near
where the ball game was in progress
the young men became so boiSterOuS
that Superintendent Smith remon-
strated with them with the result that
Nader struck the park superintendent
in the face. Thereupon they were ar
rested and brought to Baraboo by
Shehiff Tarnutzer who happened to
be nearby, complaint being made by
Mr. Smith.
Nader was member of Company
a, 32d division, and was recently dis
charged from the service.
There is a state law which forbids
the bringing of intoxicating liquor
onto state park property. 1t is said
that the automobile in which the
young men came to the park contained
bottles of whiskey and this may re-
suit in charges being preferred before
the district attorney.
