WHEAT GROWING
Profits OF The Ohio County Farmer Are
Small.

Editor Intell!gcncer:
Strive often hear the statement
made since the war has ended that Tic
farmer will receive n large profit from
his 1919 wheat crop. since the govern
mcnt has guaranteed him a price OF
sa.26 per bushcl at Chicago. which means
about s2.15 in Ohio county.
VIC give below some figures on the
cost of seeding an acre Of wheat on an
Ohio county farm. located on railroad
and near a station which makes the
hauling cost much lower than on the

Europe and America
The speaker rad from Jordan agai
Is to Europe and America, as follows
European peoples hear a heavy
burden Of historic remembrance.
Scarcely a province or city has, es-
capped sack or ravage by alien sol
diery. Racial memories are long;
bitterness and revenge have been
transmitted from generation to
generation. InternationaliSm tends
slowly to heal the ancient scars,
but traces of old wounds still vex
the public policy of every nation.
The American republic is the
one great cosmopolitan state. It's
political ideals, from the first,
have been those of British free
dom, with a philosophical inspira-
ton from France. It's citizens, pri-
marily English, have been rein
forced by freedom-loving strains
from almost every quarter of the
globe. Under the new conditions,
all these have been more, or less
perfectly assimilated, and tradi-
tional antipathies have been large
ly forgotten in new duties. Assim-
ilation has fairly kept pace with
freedom.
The republic has no loftier ideal
than to remain the land where
hatred dies away. 'The essence
of a nation" according to Ernest
Renan, is mot only to hold many
things in common, but also many
in oblivion"
Not in an obscure corner, not in
a feudal Europe, not in an anti
quated appanage where no on
ward step can be taken without
rebellion is this seed of benevo-
lence laid in the furrOw with tears
of hope; but in this broad Ameri-
ca Of God and man, where the
forest is only now fall ng and the
green earth opened to the inun-
dation of immigrant men from all
quarters Of oppression and guilt,
here where not a family, not a.
few, but mankind shall say what
shall be; here we ask, Shall it be
war or peace? (Amerson.)

Other Days
Are Recalled

Willis B. Cowles who, with Mrs.
Cowles, celebrated his fortieth we'd
ding anniversary few. days ago at
their family home in Greenfield, re.
calls many incidents of the neighbor-
hood and the most amusing was that
Of the, excited bear when the lantern
went out. Bruin appeared at the home
of the father of o. T. Wood, for many
years the sexton of the Baraboo GEM
etery, and attempted to get pig out
OF pen. OF course the pig squealed
louder than it ever did before and the
whole household rushed to its aid At
ter the disturbance had quieted, the
bear, being thirsty, was heard to tip
! over a barrel of water at the corner
| of the house in his efforts to obtain
drink This resulted in bringing the
family to the attack again, lighted
lantern being in evidence While the
father and son were searching for the
bear the lantern was blown out by a
passing breeze and they heard the
bear give forth loud "Woof, woof.''
This was too much for the Woods
| and they sought safety in the house.
The bear went his way.
Mr.. Cowles says nearly all the older
residents of the neigborhood are gone
now. He recalls such family names
as Wing, Denison, Joseph Wilkinson.
]. N. Angel, Dowley and Wood. Mrs.
Eliza Hoeg is about the only one left
OF the older generation in the COM
munity @
Mrs. Cowles has resided there for
81 years and Mr. Cowles. for many
years. He recalls that on the last
days of February of their wedding
year heavy snow fell and the roads
were almost blocked. 1t was most
difficult to get to town with a sled An
early spring followed.
The Cowles farm in Greenfield COM
mands beautiful valley which slopes
to the east, and to the south the more
elevated range meets the sky line, the
Baraboo river flowing a10rg it's hidden
