CAPTURED A BIG BEAR
Young Lady Near Gagen
Sets Trap for Bruin and
Lands the Brute Weighed
200 Pounds.

The reader will remember there
appeared in the News an item
stating that a husky, we'll fed
tourist had wandered into the
Information bureau in Eagle
and excitedly asked if there were
bears in this section of the state.
Of course he was told in the
negative. Now, it is up to this
shop to apologize to the fellow.
And the following, taken from
last weeks Rhinelander News,
explains why we are so willing
to own up that there are bears:
Many of the farmers living
around Gagen are enjoying bear
meat and incidentally reducing
the high cost of living this week
as result of the trapping of a
200-pound black bear by Miss
Anna Anderson about two miles
from Gagen last Sunday alter
noon.
The bear which met it's doom
Sunday, was first seen by Her
man Pafrath and Miss Ander-
son several weeks ago while
they were picking berries. Bruin
was about thirty feet away from
them and appeared to regard
them casually making no at
tempt to attack them. A trap
was Immediately set in the
vicinity where the bear was seen
and on Sunday the bear was
caught Miss Anderson shot
the animal with a large calibre
rifle and he was dressed and
taken to the Anderson home.
There is an open season for
bear in this county and many of
the farmers in the country have
that there are many of
the big black animals rowing
around in the woods this year.

GOOD ON WHEAT
Philip Foelkner Will Eat His
Own Wheat Flour This
Winter.

Of course, it is to be understood
that Northern Wisconsin never
has claimed itself second Kan
sas in the production OF wheat,
ard prior to 1918 never invested
very heavily in the growing of
that grain. 1t is safe to say
that prior to last year there was
less than a half dozen acres pro-
duced by the farmers of Villas
county. Last year as a war
time measure Villas county far
mers planted and harvested over
two hundred acres of war wheat,
finding out at that time that it
could successfully be grown in
this frozen northland, even if we
do have two hours more sun
shine each day than Cincinnati,
Ohio.
Philip Foelkner of the town of
Arbor Vitae will kill the flour
ink this winter when he slides
his feet under the table and pro-
ceeds to butter the bread made
from his own growing of wheat.
He sowed five acres to wheat
this spring and when he threshed
last week was credited with
seventy-hve bushels, machine
measure. Samples of this wheat
are on exhibit at the state fair.
The wheat acreage in Villas
county this year is quite large,
as is also that of barley and rye.

Harvesting Early Varieties
NO Shortage Here.

The fact is patent that the po-
tato crop in Villas county is good
and will keep record in bushels
to the acre with other years very
easily. This is now being proven
by the early varieties being har-
vested and marketed.
Irish Cobblers, Triumphs and
Early Ohios are being shipped
from Eagle River this week to
the city markets and are bring
ing a good price. The Irish
Cobbler variety now being ship
ped to market from the Radcliffe
farm is extra good.

Wisconsin's majority in favor

Unofficial returns from about
two thirds of the state, including
practically all the large centers

nesday's game was certainly of

the various towns. They are

tests in exhibits will result and
more community interest taken

MUST HAVE MORE
CARS FROM WEST

Maurice J. Sullivan, lieutenant GOV
ernor. has taken up the matter of
improving the train service by hay-
ing more sleeping cars placed on
the run between Sparks and Tono
pah. Yesterday he wired the rail
road commission and received the
following answer: Have taken up
the matter of additional sleeping
car accommodation on train No. "a
with the Southern Pacific company
and Mr.. Forster, who was here. Hope
to be able to have siXteen-secti0n
sleeper substituted for the present
twelye-section which should take
care of the present overflow with
the understanding that additional
sleeper shall be provided as soon as
traffic justifies."
This message was signed by J. F.
Shaughnessy. This mornings train
brought in a batch of travellers who
had been denied accommodations at
any price. When Mr. Sullivan heard
their statements today he wired the
railroad commission that forty pas
sengers sat up and arrived, cold
dirty and disgusted." He protested
against any further delay and in
sisted that the railroads give prompt
attention to the complaint by ad
ding another sleeper. The lieutenant
governor also protested against pull
ing off the smoking car at Nina
which left the Tonopah service toe
eramped for ordinary dSce0cy.
