SAVING BEATS EARNINGS:

saved it all, he would have

Can anyone figure out how
much Jacob would have had had
he purchased one SIS War Saw
ing Stamp then, which pays in
terest at the rate Of per cent,
compounded four times every

this: How much would every
child have If it's parents should
start it out with IS stamp, and
then encourage the youngsters
to save?

LIGHTNING IN
FREAK PRANK
Peter Weldon Has Narrow Escape
In Recent Electrical Storm At
Portage

Peter Weldon who resides on a
farm near Portage exhibited a splin-
ter of a tree which was shattered by
a lightning bolt during one of the
electric storms a few days ago,
while he was milking close by.
Mr.. Weldon says he thought he was
milking an electric cow when the
bolt struck it came so suddenly He
says that the milk in the pail fairly
boiled. He was not affected by the
bolt in any way notwithstanding the
fact that the tree that was shatter-
ed was only five rods from where he
was in the barn milking the cow.
The splinter of the tree. is about 10
feet long and is torn as piece of
rag would be after it went through a
sausage machine.
A peculiar aspect of the lightning
prank was the fact that short time
before Mr.. Weldon had placed a
piece of iron rod against the tree,
tnd where this piece of iron touched
the bark, and even the leaves, escap-
ed injury while the other side is
shredded and burned

LAND PRICES
FARM FACTOR
In Normal Conditions Purchases
Unable to Make Profitable Re-
turns

When normal conditions are restor-
ed, purchasers of high priced land may
find they are unable to make profit
able returnes on their investments.
This is the conclusion of the Bureau
of Farm Management of the depart
ment of agriculture, after an investi-
cation of speculation in farm lands.
Prices of land in some sections have
risen so rapidly that serious conse-
quences may be expected, the bureau
belives.
High prices for crops have been re-
Elected in the prices paid for land and
spectators, many of them not farm
ers, have grown rich in buying ana
selling at high figures.
Farmers have sold their land ar
what seemed good prices, but have
been compelled to buy again, losing
thousands of dollars in the exchange.
Thls may cause embarrassment said
the bureau, If the purchase is IT,
nanced on credit.

EXPERIENCE OF ANOTHER

Like most of the other dangers OF
ballooning," writes T. A. Macdonald
in The Wide World magazine, para
chuting may be called the danger Of
the imagination. Terrible results may
happen, and the contemplation OF their
possible arrival is apt to rack the ner-
yes, but accidents, thanks to the in
genuity of Spencers and other para
chute manufacturers, are very rare.
Here is an account of nay first exper-
fence.
Shutting my eyes, took header
over the edge of the basket and drop
ped. A breathless plunge Of about 80
feet, feeling much the same as has
in doing steed dive on a scenic rail-
way, and then tug on my legs from
my harness, and the parachAte had OPP
ened. For a few moments felt as
though / was remaining absolutely
still in the air, the first dead drop be-
ing so rapid that I did not notice the
twelve miles or SO at which my opened
parachute was carrying me towards
the ground. Then glanced downwards
and saw the ground rising towards
me, and also noticed that I moved
fairly rapidly in lateral direction
with the wind. Eighty seconds or SO
later landed with a slight thud on my
back, cut my parachute rope to avoid
being dragged, and then got on my
feet, firmly convinced that PARACHUTE
ing was splendid sport and well
worth the danger it involved.

is about ALL" he replied. Sometimes
do not think much and sometimes I
do" he added.
On the first and second days he drop
ped about fifty feet, before the para

distance, apparently several hundred
feet. before the parachute filled with

OF day that was enjoyed by those
participating in the great event.
Early in the morning automobiles
began to arrive and all forenoon the
procession Of machines came from
north, east, south, and west. The ma
chimes were excluded from the main
section Of the city and cars were park
I'd for blocks about. At the fair grounds
they were standing near and far, there
being acres of them. There never were
so many machines in Baraboo before.
City Decorated
Flags were everywhere The Dusi-
ness houses and residences were
beautifully decorated, the light posts
were adorned with the colors, and at
the corners of the principal streets
were special pillars of white. On the
main street in large letters, was the
word:
