LOCALS WIN TWO
CLOSE GAMES
Defeat Ingram 3 to 2 the Fourth
and T0mahawk By Same
Score Sunday

The Ladysmith baseball team has
given its percentage a good boost the
past week by winning two games, both
fast and so close as to be exceedingly
interesting from the time the first man
was up until the last man was out.
The first game was played at Ingram
on the Fourth. Ingram had strength
ened up for the occasion and put up a
stiff battle, but was defeated 3 to :.
Both teams played good ball all the
way through and Lowry, Ladysmith's
new pitcher proved very effective.
The locals played at Tomahawk Sun
day and won again by the score of 3 to
g. In this game they played against
ten men, the umpire rObbing them
atrociously at every opportunity. In
spite of this handicap, the locals fought
all the harder and brought home the
bacon.''

Stanley Gallus Ends Life With
Revolver While Family is
Doing Chores
HAD ACTED STRANGELY
FOR SOME TIME PAST
Talked of And Seemed to Fear Some
Enemy Would Try to Get Him."
Had Had Trouble With
NeighbOr

Stanley Gallus, Polish, residing on
his farm three and one-half miles
north of this city, (One-half mile east
of the Flunker cheese factory ended
his life Saturday evening about
o'clock by sending .3S revolver bullet
through his brain. The bullet entered
the right temple and went almost
through his head.
The wife and four children are left
The funeral was held Tuesday from
the Catholic church, with burial in
Riverside cemetery.
Gallus, who was only little over 30
years of age, had been acting strange
ly for some time. He talked of someone
after him and seemed in mortal fear
of some, apparently imaginary, enemy.
GalluS had had some trouble with some
of his neighbors, having had to pay
fine for an assault upon one OF them
growing out of dispute over a line
fence. Possibly he may have brooded
over this. He had just paid the last
instalment of his fine and costs the day
he committed suicide. He had acted
very strangely while in town and there
was talk of having the man examined
as to his sanity. He had lived here
about years.
Fl. w. Flunker took Gallus home
Saturday in his car. Mrs Gallus met
the car on the road home with horse
and buggy and Mr.. and Mrs. Gallus re-
+urnod homo tooathnr While the fam
lily was busy at the chores, the man
slipped away and, going to the house,
went upstairs. Missing her husband
and thinking something might be
wrong, Mrs. Gallus went to the house.
AS she neared the head of the stairs she
heard shot and rushing into the room
found her husband breathing his last

THE APPLE LEAF HOP
PER ON POTATO VINES

This insect has appeared III deStfuc-
tive numbers over large part OF Wis
consin and has caused the leaves of
early potatoes to turn black and dry
up In the worst cases even the stems
have blackened and died.
Most of the damage is done by the
Young insects which stay on the under
side of the leaves and run rapidly but
do not hop. These were changing to
adults with wings in southern WiScon-
sin June 10 to June %. These little
green leaf hoppers fly readily and will
spread to late potatoes, beans, and adj
Joining crops where another generation
of young will be produced. Just how
serious this will be cannot be predicted
until early in August.
Aphids are also appearing on many
of the fields They will be found in
small patches near the tips of the
leaves. The remedy for the leaf hop
per will apply equally well for the
aphids.
Remedy: The best remedy is nico-
tine sulphate, ordinarily sold as
BLACK Leaf 40" by seed stores and
drug stores. Use it in the proportion
of 1 part to 800 of water, l ~ teaspoon
sfuls to a gallon, or tablespoonful to a
pail. Five times as much soap as to-
bacco solution should be added to the
water.
If the ''Black Leaf 40'' is not obtain
able, kerosene emulsion may be used.
To make this add two gallons of kero-
sene, one bar of soap Zone quart of soft
soap) to a gallon of boiling water and
run back and forth through a spray
pump until it makes a creamy emul-
sion. (In small amounts an egg beater
may be used.) Use one part of this
mixture to Z parts of cold water.
Either the tobacco solution or the
kerosene emulsion must be thoroughly
SPRAYED so as to strike the under sur
| face of the leaves. as these remedies
only kill the insects that they hit. Use
an iron pipe bent into crook for spray.

vines over just in front of the sprayel

one year by any person who has served

the relaxation which follows upon re-

military discipline and service in war
time. He also appreciates the very
natural reluctance of many soldiers
who have just been discharged, to take
on at once an obligation that may pos
sibly involve similar service.
But it was through the concerted and
continued effort of all it's members that
Wisconsin National Guard has been
proven no mean factor in national de-
fense.
The men who made it's war record
have done great things, but, their spirit

done by them, and by those other Wis

must form the strong nucleus Of every

Annual School Meeting Monday
Night Has Light At
tendance
WILL ADD FOUR ROOMS
TO SOUTH SIDE SCHOOL
School Census Shows Increase O1
Nearly One Hundred School Age
Children i'm Past Year

At the annual school meeting held
Monday night, o. j. Falge was re-
elected director for the ensuing three
years.
The school levy for all school pur-
poses was increased $4,000 over last
year to $2S5O0 The greater part OF
this increase, or 4,SOO, represents the
increase i'm salaries to be paid to teach
ers and janitOrs
One of the important matters to come
up for disposal at this meeting was the
congestion in the SOuth-Side school.
Two grades of this school have been To-
Gated in other buildings, the 5th grade
in the new highschOOl building and the
9Th grade in the west side building.
This not only makes the southside chill
dren go long distance to school, but
makes the other buildings so crowded
that there is not sufficient room for the
pupils they should accommodate.
At the time the south-side school was
built it was planned so that an addi-
ton could be built to the south side of
the building, without changing the eX-
listing Railways or stairways and the
stair space was made ample for much
larger building with the idea of being
adequate when the building was en-
larged.
1t was voted Monday night to build a
fire-prOOf addition of four rooms and
basement to this building. The present
heating plant of this building, which is
otherwise in fine condition, will soon
have to be replaced anyway, and it is
planned to install in the basement OF
the new and fireprOOf addition a new
heating plant sufficient to heat the en-
tire structure.
Building this addition will make the
building large enough to take care Oh
all the pupils from that end of the
city Taking the 9Th south-side grade
from the highschOOl building will re
lieve the congestion there and provide
room for the increased number of pu
pills this year. The grade that has beer
quartered in the basement of the south
which will be far better for the chill
dren's health. and the taking of the 6tl
grade from the west-side building viii
make room for the second and fourth
grades that have been located in the
library basement.
The recent school census showed {
total of 1901 children of school age il
the city, an increase of so over yeal
ago.
The estimated cost of the addition i:
$4,000 The matter of financing the
proposition will come up Monday even
ing, July 81, at an adjourned meeting
when good attendance is desired.
Transportation for the children liv
ing in Brooklyn, same as last year, wa!
voted.
