WHITE-SHELLE0 EGG LAYERS
Fowls Of Mediterranean Breeds Best
Suited for This Purpose-classed
as Nonsittsrs.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Poultry of the Mediterranean or egg
breeds are best suited for the prOduc-
tion Of white-shelled eggs. Repre-
sentatives of this class are bred large
ly for the production Of eggs rather
than for meat production. Among the
popular breeds of this class are: Leg
horn. MinOrca, AncOna, and Anda-
lusian. Org of the outstanding char
acteristics of the egg breeds is the
fact that they are classed as nOnsit-
tiers. That is, as a rule, they do not
become broody and hatch their eggs.
When fowls of this class are kept
artificial incubation and brooding are
rsually employed.

NEW SAVING PLAN

More Than 1400 Government Savings

Third Federal District.

Third Federal District.
More than 400 Government Saving
Associations are now operating in Ia,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Della
ware counties of the Third Federal
Reserve District. These associations
are located in business and Industrial
! concerns and have total membership
of over 100000.
The members are regularly savin-
and investing through the purchase OF
/ Government Thrift and Savings
Stamps. The largest of these assOcia
tions has several thousand members
and its total investment at a single
pay runs from $4,000 to $4,000.
The Government Savings Associa-
ton plan is very simple one. II j.
designed to make saving an easy and
convenient process and for that rea-
son is meeting with great favor among
workers. There are no dues, no fines,
no meetings, and no record is kept of
individual accounts. The ease of saw
ing by the method now introduced
goes far TO institute thrift as a per-
manent habit and the returns In vari-
Gus plants show that many workers
who previously were very improvident
are methodically and regularly put
ting by considerable sums.
In one small concern eleven men
were interested in the plan and It was
figured that in six months they were
likely to save about S175 They ac-
tually saved more than $1,000 in that
time, as much to their own as to
others surprise, and two Of them
bought homes, using their investment
in Government Savings Stamps to
make the initial payments.
The War Savings Division, with
headquarters al f4i33i Walnut street,

citation plan into practically all lead
ing business and It is meeting with the
commendation OF both the employers
and the employees Literature relating
to the plan and suggestions to promote
its introduction in any line of busi-

HUDSON COLTS
LOSE TIGHT GAME

The fast Hudson Colts lost their frst
game of the season to the Gary Cubs
Sunday at Morris Park in ten innings
of fast baseball by the score OF to 4.
From the first inning when the cubs
scored one and the Colts came right
back with two runs IL developed into a
pitchers battle between creasbaum for
the Colts and Runyon for the Cubs.
Both pitchers showed that they were
capable OF holding up their end of the
game in a very good fashion.
The score was always close during all
the game with the Colts leading up to
the ninth when tho Cubs tied II UP and
won out with two runs in the tenth
AL though Creasbaum lost his game he
showed that he had lot of stuff on the
ball and knew where and when to use
It. The only disagreeablc feature of the
game wa sthe marked partisanship of
tho first umpire for the Cubs 1t sure
is not good thing for team of the
cubs standing TO carry an umpire like
the irst one they had Sunday.
The Colts travel 70 Gary Froebel high
school grounds Labor Day for return
game with the Cubs and expect TO re-
turn with the bacon for sure this time.
Ii will sure be good game which ever
way II goes. If the fans would like 70

will sure it.
The management OF the Colts would
like TO hear from the st. Cyrils of Whit

a little difficulty in relation to games.

ELKS CONVENTION

The annual convention of the Wis
consn Association of Elks lodges held
here last week Thursday, Friday and
Saturday was all that was promised for
| it in advance. The attendance was not
the big overflow that was expected but
it was big enough.
The weather was ideal; the sun shonc
and the last two days brought out the
Justly famous lake breeze. At the club
house there was dancing in the lodge
hall and a cabaret performance in the
basement every evening. There was
also an excursion on the lake every
evening on the Goodrich liner Florida
Saturday afternoon the annual parade
of Elks' marching clubs took place.
The parade was ten blocks long and it
marched on Eighth street from the
courthouse to Cleveland avenue and
return The lodges in line were Green
Bay, Marinette, Madison, Milwaukee,
Racine, Kenosha, Sheboygan, kaukau-
ma, Menasha, Fond du Lac, Manitowoc,
and Kennedy shows Elks All these
clubs were in uniform and nearly all
were headed by band or drum corps.
Manitowoc also had in line beautiful
float representing the four principles
of the Elks' creed.
The official sessions brought ZIG ac-
credited delegates to the lodge room.
The main business was the election of
officers. There was a contest for the
Office of president only and this was
won on the first ballot by II. S. Dodd
of Fond du Lac. l.. f.. Wedertz of the
local lodge who came out as a eandi-
date ten days before the convention
ran second. The other officers elected
were:
First Vice President. B. Roland,
La Crosse.
Second Vice President WeickerL
Menasha.
Secretary-Theodore Bently, She
boygan.
William Hurtgen, Eau
Claire.
Five trustees were named with f.
Grassler of Milwaukee as chairman
John w. Gauerke of Green Bay, and
\. II. Quigley were reelected on the
board.
Keno7hl was the only candidate for
the next convention because all others
saw there was no chance to beat the
campaign that city had made for it.
Manitowoc surely did itself proud in
every department of the big affair.

CIRCUIT COURT

From last Thursday until Monday
afternoon the court was engaged in the
trial of Cornelius Zechel against the
j. f. Rappel Co Zechel was an en-
ploye of RappeIs and during evenings
and other spare time busted himself in
attempting to sell 100000 of pre-
ferred stock the company had issued.
The entire issue was quickly sold and
Zechel claimed to have sold it all. He
was paid his regular salary and 500 in
addition, but he exhibited written
contract with the company which he
AID his counsel, ,,oseph Aidrein 0f.
Green Bay, construed to give Zechel
exclusive sale of the stock and rea-
sonable compensation for his services,
which they sought to show by testi-
mony was 10 per cent of the par value
of the issue of 100000 which would
be $4,000 which sum they demanded.
The jury were given one question:
nat was lnc Ndlut VI LttnCl 6tIN-
ices. They answered: $500. From this
will be deducted his wages and bonus
of 500 leaving him a judgment of
about S460. 1t was rumored that he
was offered considerably more than
that before the trial began. The Rap
pei Co. was represented by A. j. Wyse-
man and j. j. IIealy.
Tuesday the court took up the grind
of divorce actions and called the case
of WooIworth Co. VS.. Fred Nogelsang.
Nogelsang owns the premises on thc
southeast corner of Eighth and Franl
lin streets and the Woolworth $ and 10
cent store adjons on the south. The
Woolworth company claims that Nog
elsangs are obstructing an eight foot
right of way from the WoOlwOrth
premises across the back of Nogel-
sang's lot to Franklin street by two
posts on the east line of right of way
which support a roof over the drive
way. 1t is almost entirely a question
of law, but some testimony was taken
as to alleged decreased accessibility to
the rear of the Woolworth store The
rest Of the facts viii be stipulated and
arguments made later.

only person who could swim was Fitz-
gerald. The little boy fell off and Filz-
gerald at once went 10 his rescue. Both
were drowned. A boy named Schippcr
at once sprang into boat and used II
piece of a board for a paddle. lie ar
rived just in time to save Luethge. but
the other two had sunk. Lucthge was
sick with fright and his bath and went
home and to bed. The chief Of police
was notified of the accident and with
assistants proceeded to search for the
bodies. That of the child was found
after II o'clock, and Fitzgerald's body
about $3.50 in the afternoon.
Fitzgerald could have saved himself
but he gave his life in an attempt to
save that Of the child, and thus made
full atonement for the errors Of late
years The drowning occurred only q
short distance from where George Bur
net was drowned less than year ago,
The river there Is about twenty feet
deep.
Luethge says he was rowing and that
Fitzgerald stood up 10 take something
out Of his pocket when the boat cap
sized lie did not see either Of then

practical sentimentality, but was large

and scrlpulous honesty. He held many
minor public offices, including chair
man of his town, which posts he ac-
cepted as public trusts A good clti-
zen has gone over. The funeral will
be held tomorrow.
