TOBACCO GRowERs' MEETlNG AT


Prof. James Johnson of the University OF
Wisconsin has been working hard to help the
tobacco growers of this state, and he has some
plats this year that he thinks viii be of vital
importance 20 Wisconsin tobacco growers.
Therefore, on August Is, he is going to have
a tobacco field day at Madison and Vernon
county tobacco growers invited and urged
TO be present.
All who intend to grow should plan on get
ting an auto load in their neighborhoOd and
start early that morning. The trip can be
made easily in one day by starting early in
the morning, as il is only about five hours
drive. Anyone who will take an auto load
that day, please notify the county agent if
you cannot find a load. Full plans of the trip
will be in next weeks paper now,
WOMEN ARE DOING
George Moen does not believe in scrub cat
tie. his little herd of six Jersey cows handler
him over check of ssl for the last half Of
the month of June. Cows like that will eat
high priced feed and pay you double for what
you have paid for it. What kind of cows have
you got? viii your cows return about 500
back to you in their years work T.? If they
will not do that, they will not pay for their
feed. and who is to blame? Get that pure
bred bull
Bred Guernsey Bull Calf for $3.50. Why did
he pay that much? Because his four nearest
dams averaged SAL pounds of butterfat as
yearly records. Let's get more such animals
into the county.
Mrs. F. Emo received $1.35 for cockerels
weighing two and half pounds each. They
is a nice profit realized when raises poul-
try that way. You can do the same thing If
you will, but better get standard bred var
iety so you will not be disappointed that
is one of the well knOwnfacts of scrub stock.
II is well to look over your flock at this time
and whether you have some poor layers.
The early mOulters and those hanging around
the poultry house better be put on the market
Immediately. The puliets that are growing
nicely want lot of feed from now until they
are mature. The Is that they will ma
ture earlier and pullet will not begin to lay
until she is mature and fat. 1t is important to
get them mature and fat before cold weather
comes. il is much harder to start them lay
ing after that time. The winter eggs bring
the big money.

WANTED
BOOSTS CHIPPEWA COUNTY

An observer writes, after an extend
ed trip in Chippewa county that this
county offers great opportunities to
the man of vision, who has an ambi-
ton to succeed. There may be found
the splendid soil always found in a
hard wood region, which viii raise any
kind of crops, especially grains, root
crops and grasses. For this reason,
that region is going to be one of the
greatest dairy counties of the state,
and in anticipation OF this, cheese fac
tories and creameries are being built
throughout the county. The land is
easy to clear, due to the fact that it
is very level and has but little heavy
timber, most of this having been cut
off during logging days.
The men who handle this land are
men of broad-minded vision, anxious
and willing to do all in their power to
help the settler get start and to sue
coed, because as he succeeds, so dc
they. AS an example of what actual
| ly has been done through the help OF
these men, one Vernon county man OF
whom the writer has personal know
ledge, went to Chippewa county three
years ago without cent in his pocket
now has forty acres of land cleared
good farm buildings, fine dairy herd
and best of all, the satisfaction OF
knowing that he is his own boss, and
is on the road to success.
In answer to the question, rs it 9
good place to raise family" volumes
could be said and written. There are
good schools, modern buildings equip
ped with agricultural and domestic
science departments, employing only
competent teachers. Boys and girls
have a splendid chance to develop into
good citizens and farmers through the
Boys and Girls clubs organized, anc
financed by the parties interested II
the colonization projects, and super
vised by the Extension Division al
Madison. Besides, there are the Com
munity clubs for both old and young
which give social life a practical turT
by concentrating upon the things mos
vital to the settler-how to succeed
upon his farm.
| The reader need not accept merely
these printed words. Take few
days off, you man anxious to get &
home of your own, go to Holcombt
and see these opportunities for your
self. II will cost you but little, as al
expenses are paid by the land com
pany and you viii certainly get
Isquare deal.-Adv.

LANE PREPARING FOR HIS PLANS

Secretary Lane announces good progress was made during the month of April in the classification of public lands by the. Department of the Interior through the instrumentality of the Geological Sur vey. The classfications during the month involved coal, oil, water-power, and public-water lands
 More than half million of land previous ly withdrawn for classification their coal con tent restored to the public domain as not con- taining coal This land already open to agri- cultural entry under the surface acts Over one hundred million of land have been classi- fled by the Geological Survey under the coal land laws nearly 3o,00O 900 of them as coal lands, with an appraised value of $9S6,7S3, 900.
 One hundred and twenty previously with drawn as oil land restored during the month not containing oil.
 Over 2,OO0 acres of land added to the public. water reserve. making a total of 219449 acres now set aside by the Government for stock watering purposes The acreage of waterpower lands was decreased during April by the restoration of 1000 acres which have water-power value. There are now over two million and half reserved by the Government for development under the wa ter-power laws.

Salaries of Teachers

(Cordova Times)
 It is gratifying to know that there is a general movement throughout the country in favor of prop ry compensatng school teachers for the services hey render It is at present a poorly paid profess ion and offers but little encouragement for any devote the time and money necessary to equip themselves to engage in this lfe's work Cordova exceptionally efficient staff of instructors md it is to the local board to show it's appreca- ion of good service by giving the members sub setting the pace and Cordova afford to do less than reward its teachers by making their to retain competent instructors. On the sub ect, Salaries of Teachers, the Seattle Post-Intelli- sencer says:
 The disparity between the salaries ordinarily paid teachers, and especially common school teachers, md the salaries earned by men and women in other professions requiring equal intelligence and educa- ion, is not only inducing many teachers to take up jther pursuits but it is decreasing the attendance in ome of the normal schools and cutting down the 'nnual supply of graduate teachers. The number of eachers turned out by the normal schools is stead ly decreasing, while the demand for them is growing ear by year. Under the law of supply and demand diaries are thus due for rise, whatever views in 'ivdual members of school boards may entertain
 Wisconsin newspapers report that the shortage teachers in that State is largely due to the shrink lge in the number of normal school graduates, and he condition is paraeled to many other States. In 1916 the number of normal school graduates 1900, while $500 new teachers required that ear. In 1919 Wisconsin normal schools will turn ,ut only 2,9o0 while $500 teachers half lalf the number that will be required Septem- 'er when the new school year begins.
 Falling off in normal school attendance is attri- )uted wholly to the scant promise that graduation 'ffers for lucrative work. Capable young and vomen simply larger opportunities in earning >ower and for advancement in other fields they re going into business and into professions xacting, with more individual liberty and less need or close personal economies.
