Obituary.
WILLIAM WHEELER WILLIAMS.

William Wheeler Williams, who pass
ed away at his home, 7543 Hampton
Ave-. Hollywood, CAL, last week,
Thursday, was born in Edgerton, Aug,
26, 1873. He was educated in the Ed
gerton public schools Shortly after
finishing his school days he went to
Baltimore, Md, where he was employ
ed in the Offices of the Baltimore and
Ohio railway as clerk of coal shipments.
His competent and faithful service
gave him promotion, and he served as
dining car conductor the following
years. He was again promoted and
became assistant superintendent of
diners, position he held up to the
time of his failing health. During his
first year at Baltimore he was married
to Miss Jessie Croft of GAINESVILLE. The
future looked bright when the cloud of
illness lowered upon the young man.
The dread disease, tuberculosis, came
and claimed him as its victim. He was
obliged to abandon his work and seek
medical aid and rest. Two years ago
he left his home in the East and went
to live with his mother, Mrs. H. |.
Williams, in Long Beach, Cal, his
family joining him there short time
later, whereupon they moved to Holly
wood to live. His condition improved
for time, but relapse followed and
he gradually failed until death claimed
him. Besides his wife he leaves two
daughters, Maryland and Ewnestine, his
aged mother, Mrs. Williams of Long
Beach, we'll known to many people in
Edgerton, sister, Mrs. J. Showalter
of Owensmonth, Cal, and brother,
Frank Williams of Edgerton, to mourn
his death
The Reporter joins the many friends
of the bereaved family in greetings of
sympathy.

<
Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Shannon
have returned from their summer home
at Sayner, Wis.
THE belated period of equinoxial
rains closed with big downpour last
Sunday night. The rainfall had by
that time caused the kcreeks and
rivers to rise until the banks over
flowed. At Stoughton, Stebbinsville
and Fulton the dams were damaged,
and through the country gradings and
culverts were washed out in bad shape.
In some places the water fell as in q
cloudburst; lowland and marshes over
flowed, and considerable stock was
drowned in the floods. Saunders creek
rose abruptly, and on Saturday even
ing it began to overflow it's banks,
spreading over its customary haunts
when it goes on rampages of this sort.
1t did not reach its high water mark,
but it rose high enough to make some
of those who live along the creek un-
comfortable, the water backing into
the cellars. A piece of the masonry
near the bridge on Albion road was
washed down, but otherwise no damage
of any account to property in town has
been reported. Corn in the fields did
not fare well, and the farmers could
not get into the fields to 90 any work
to speak Of all last week.

Seen by ITSELF Swift & Company is
one of the largest manufacturers and
distributors of animal food products in
the country.
Seen in relation to the total food busi-
ness of the world, its size dirninishes to
small proportions.
We handle only about % per cent of
the total output of the hundreds of pack
ing plants under federal inspection, and
only about IL per cent of the total meat
supply of the nation.
We handle only about per cent of
the total quantity of butter, eggs, and poul-
try sent to market in the United States
Our tanneries handle less than IS per
cent of the hides made into leather in
the United States.
Our soap factories make less than 10
per cent of the soap output of the nation.
This is done in keen and open
competition with every concern handling
these products and at profit of fraction
of cent per pound.
In the meat packing industry there is
noone dominant concern handling large
