ANOTHER SEVERE STORM

Last Wednesday, was another very
dark and rainy day, at least this was
the case the first part of the day. In
Wausau, it was a heavy rain, accom-
panied by thunder and lightning.
Berry pickers out few miles from
Dancy, say that there was much wind
and hail with the storm there and
much damage was done to growing
crops and by trees blowing down. The
rain fell in perfect deluge, several
barns and many trees were blown
down. There was hail and wind in,
the northern part of the county, but
not so much damage was done ex-
cepting to crops. 1t turned much
colder last night, and some feared a
frost
The storm just across the line, in
Portage county, assumed the shape of
a cyclone and buildings, and trees
were blown down and crops des-
troyed, says the Stevens Point Journ-
|al.
The camp of the crew engaged in
the construction of the federal high
way in the town of Dewey, was
wrecked and the loss was several
hundred dollars. Quite a number of
men were in the building when it col
lapsed. A heavy range was picked up
and carried 30 feet away and set
down uninjured. T. E. Cauley, high
way commissioner for Portage county
was out in the storm, and scores of
trees blown down. A pine tree IS
inches in diameter was broken and
carried so or 20 feet. SO trees down
were counted along the roads travelled
by him while going home. The dam
age in this respect must have been
enormous.
The Journal reports the following
losses:
Among the losses reported so far
are the following:
Barn on farm of Ed. Burk, town of
Dewey, demolished.
New stave silo on farm OF Daniel
Keyes, Eau Pleine, formerly owned by
Daniel Corlett of this city, destroyed
Chimney off house and cupola OFF
barn on Steuck farm, Eau Pleine.
Destruction of growing fields of
corn and other crops was common.
Among the losses are John Marchel
Charles Altenburg, August Nitz and
Otto Dau, whose farms are on the old
Wausau road this side of Dancy

PROFITEERS AND THEN
. SOME

The profiteers are not all confined
to war contracts or the necessaries of
life. There are side lines as Dairy
and Food Commissioner Weigle shows
in a warning to the public against
paying an exhorbitant price for a
simple disinfectant, out of which for
tunes will be made if the public are
gullible. There is on the market in
Wisconsin according to Mr.. Weigle a
much advertised article called "Pre-
servo" which is being sold at $3.50
per pound, to meat markets and homes
for purifying refrigerators by burning
quantity in them. Preserve as
the chemical department of the dairy
and food commission finds is made up
of equal parts of sulphur and char
coal, and the user can buy the two
ingredients for 80 cents, that he is
asked to pay $3.50 for.

TRIM YOUR TREES

Some of our citizens the past week,
were busy trimming up the branches
of their shade trees. More especially,
those which are along side walks.
Those trees according to our city
laws must be trimmed to a certain
height. but trees in general look much
better if trimmed up as high as pos
sible. Limbs which hang down be-
low six feet over walks, are nuis-
ance and ii not attended should be
cared for by the city.

DEATH OF RICHARD V. DAY

Word was received in this city the
past week, that Richard V. Day, of
Los Angeles, passed away on July

warning, he was stricken with apo
plexy. Mr. Day was ~ years of age.
He was largely interested in lumber
ing and he and his family made their
home in Wausau for a number of
years. They went from here to Rhine
lander to live about 25 years ago and
from there they went to Los Angeles,
to reside. Mrs. Day died about five
years ago.

CENTRAL POWERS oUTCLAssED

WASHINGTON, April 5-A state ment made by Chef of Staff, General March indicates the helpless condi- tion Germany and Austria are con- fronted with after the application of General Foch's armistice rules.
 According to General March's reve- lations the Allied military forces now reach the enormous total of S,363,- 900 men agianst 1,125,O00 still un- der arms in Germany and Austria.
 Twenty five per cent of the Allied troops have been demobilized up to date, whle 65 per cent of the troops of Germany and Austria have been dismissed from military service.
 A new outbreak of histilities is according to General March out of the question as such an act of sheer mad ness would be easily crushed by the overwhelming forces at the disposal of the Allies.
