The entire growth of the city of New
York for the past 200 years proves this,
and the largest and most substantial
fortunes in the city have been made
out of the increase of the value of
the land.
This policy has been followed by
the Astor family, the Goelets, the Wen
dels and hundreds of others who are
to-day the wealthiest taxpayers of the
city In fact, a large part of the
property around that to be sold, is
owned by the Astors, Vanderbilts and

ATTENTION.!

All citizens of northern Wis
consin are cautioned to be unus-
ually careful with fires this fall.
The great amount of vegetation
grown in the past season will de-
velop a bad fire menace with a
dry spell in October and Novem-
Der. Settlers are warned not to
burn carelessly when clearing.
Lumbermen, campers, hunters,
jobbers and others are urged to
be unusually careful. Make this
matter of your business SO that
we will not suffer a conflagra-
ton such as Minnesota suffered
last fall.

We will hold Potato and Poultry
Show at Crandon, Wis, on December

prizes will be given that are being do
mated by our Forest County citizens
interested in the up-lift of agriculture.
Four or five premiums will be offered
for each different standard variety of
potatoes and the different breeds of
Poultry. This will give many exhibi-
tors an opportunity to win prizes and
we all must cooperate to make it a
success.

ing program for men and women will
be arranged, so as to make everybody
feel that the Winter Show is worth

Wabeno Creamery to Make
Cheese Next Spring.

Machinery for the manufacture of
cheese will be installed in the local
creamery early next spring.
A meeting of the stockholders of the
Forest County Cooperative Dairy Co.
was held at the town hall last Friday
evening and practically all the stock
holders were in favor of keeping
abreast of the times by manufacturing
cheese as well as butter.
Funds for the purchase of the necess-
ary machinery for making cheese will
be secured by selling the balance of
the creamery stock and $4,000 of the
remaining stock was taken up at
the meeting Friday night. Several
farmers, who had not purchased stock
when the creamery was organized, came
in and subscribed for stock Only a
few shares of the stock remain unsold.
The creamery has been great sue
cess and has aided materially in devel-
oping the dairy industry in this section.
1t is home institution, all the stock
being owned by local people, and is de-
serving of the patronage of every far
mer. City people should help boost the
creamery by using "Wabeno made"
butter.
The butter maker, Perry Mott, has
given excellent satisfaction. both
to the stockholders of the creamery and
the patrons as well. He is first-class
butter maker and has succeeded in not
only getting but also in holding the
patronage of practically every farmer
in the town who has cream to sell.
