Enormous Hay Crop.

Recent trips throughout the county
convinced us that there will be no
shortage of hay this season. The
abundant rainfall and plenteous sun
shine has produced a hay crop this
year that has seldom been equalled.
Grasses, always a big crop in this
section, are thriving wonderfully
under present weather conditions
and cutting of the first crop will be
started in a few days by most farm
ers. Should the present weather
continue through the next three
weeks the hay crop will be enormous.
Many farmers are planning on three
cuttings before the cold weather sets
in next fall. And the big crop pros
poets are not alone confined to the
grasses. T he growing season
for all products has started out aus
piciously and there is promise of rec
ord yields in every line. Corn looks
the best we have seen it in years
and it's advancement will compare
favorably with the growth farther
south. Garden products are in the
best of condition with potatoes prom
ising a yield that will mean money
to the growers. With increased
acreage, good dairy herds and plen-
ty of silos the county is going for
ward in a remarkable manner this
year.

They Gave Their Lives

Responding to the call of country
with the same zeal that sent their
brothers smashing through the Hin
denburg line, the thousands Of
American nurses who entered war
service wrote one Of the most glori-
Gus pages of the grim story OF the
World War. In camp, on the trans
ports, just behind the firing line and
in the hospitals, nurses, recruited
through the American Red Cross,
toiled with amazing courage and I'M
tiringly for the men broken in battle
or stricken with the plaques that
follow the wake of war. All won the
~incalculable affection and gratitude
of the soldiers and refugees, and
some the decorations of Govern
ments, but scores paid for their devo-
ton with their lives.
A sacred constellation of one hum
bred eighty-four gold stars on the
service flag of the Department OF
Nursing of the American Red Cross
at Washington is the silent token OF
the supreme sacrifice. It is probable
that the names of two hundred
Americans will have been represented
upon it.
Death came to American nurses in
many forms. Striving against almost
homeless odds to check the epidemic
of influenza, nearly a hundred nurses
succumbed to the scourge. Many
more we're victims of the disease
when it ragged in the war zone. Min
istering to the wounded in airplane
raids in France, others were killed by
Hun ruthlessness.
But the American nurse who gave
her life to the cause of Liberty did
not die in vain. Into the shadoWy
beyond the shadowy beyond there
went withlher the prayers and MUIR
murs of those she succOred. High
military leaders gave their word OF
praise for faithfulness that never fall
tered, while in many saddened
homes there is imperishable pride.
81 am sending a picture of u
daughter, our soldier girl, who made
sacrifice, at Vichy, France wrote a
father of one. In the hearts of
others bereaved this simple, loving,
proud tribute finds silent echo, while
a great Nation gives thanks to the
Almighty for her patriotic daughters
whose obedience to duty defed even
death itself.

With the Ball Teams.

The fast Flambeau team is SEIZED
uled to play here again July Fourth.
Those lads can play ball and the
game promises to be a swift one
judging from the way the two teams
stacked up in last Sundays contest.
The fact that the game ended in a
fracas and was unfinished with Flam-
beau leading by a score of 5 to 3, was
in no way the fault of the team. The
Indians have al ways played clean ball
and usually gave the locals a tough
match. The bunch of rowdies that
broke up the game tried to mix booze
and baseball and since booze never
did mix successfully with any business
the result was inevitable. However,
the Fourth Of July game will not be
of that caliber.. The Flambeau team
played we'll Sunday and in the coming
game they.will repeat the performance
so that a fast game will be the result.
At Phelps Sunday the Clearwater
team defeated the team from the for
mer town by a score of IL to 4. UP
to the ninth inning the score was a
tie-4 to 4-and then the trouble be-
gan. 1t commenced to rain, the ball
got slippery and There was no holding
of it. By the time the smoke had
rolled away the Clearwater team had
annexed seven mor runs, winning
the game by a score that doesn't be-
gin to tell the good playing of both
teams before the fatal ninth inning.
Eagle River goes to Phelps Sunday.
That game promises to be a fast one.
With a change in lineup Manager
McGregor has perfected an offense
that is scheduled to puzzle the locals
before the game is owe The Phelps
team plays good ball but so far this
season they have been mostly out of
luck. From all reports Sundays
game will tell a different tale.

PLANNING FOURTH
OF JULY PROGRAM
Eagle River Citizens Prepar.
ing Holiday Events for
Observance o f ! n
dependence Day.

Eagle River will celebrate the Fourth
of July this year in proper manner
At a meeting of it's citizens Tuesday
evening plans were outlined and com
mittees appointed to take care of the
arrangements. Finances for the days
expenses have been raised by popular
subscription and enough has been Sc
cured to insure a good observance of
the nations birthday.
A tentative program includes an adj
dress bp a prominent speaker in the
forenoon, races, games and contests
for valuable cash prizes in the after
noon at one o'clock, a ball game be-
tween the Flambeau team and Eagle
River at three, and a band concert
and dance in the evening. The Eagle
River band las been secured to fur
nish music all day.
It is only proper that the county
seat should hold a fitting celebration
of independence Day. This year above
all others there is more reason for
such Observance, that it may awaken
in many a better realization Of the
unity in American aims and purposes.
The committees in charge welcome
any suggestions for the days program.

Millions of hand grenades, manu-
featured for ultimate delivery to the
German army via the business end OF
Yank fighting units, will go to en-
courage thrift among the school chill

Health Bulletin

You undoubtedly number among
your acQaintances at least one nerve
sick woman. whose invalidism has ap-
parently been cured by the war; this
in spite of the fact that a son or
brother in the army has given her
the first real cause for anxiety
which she has had in years.
What has been the cure which has
transformed your acquaintance from
a freGful inactive invalid into an en-
ergetic capable woman? Knitting,
gardening, Red Cross work, cam
paigning for Liberty Loans-in short,
work plus forgetfulnes of self. Not
the kind of work attempted as much
as ABSORPTION in it has driven off the
DOGGY.
If it took a war to effect such
s'cures," the time for working them
would now be over and victims of
nerves" in this generation, at least,
would be doomed to incapacity for
life. But, fortunately, it does not
take such extreme measures. It was
not the war which brought about the
cure, but forgetfulness Of self,
aroused by the war, to be sure, but
capable of responding to other stimu-
Ii also.
Increasingly, it is coming to be de-
MED that nervous breakdowns are, in
any large proportion of cases, the
result of oyerwork. On the contrary,
their cure is often work. The rich
business man is not attacked by
nerves as a rule during his active
days while he is heart and soul in the
management of his business. He suf-
fers after he has given up his business
and is trying to find interest in occu-
pations which lack the zest OF his
earlier career.
One does not need to be either u
society woman or a too successful
business man to know the horrors of
NERVES" None of us is entirely free
from them. Not only lack OF Occu-
patton but lack of interest in ones
occupation turns the mind inward
upon self, and results in nervousness.
So does the habit of finding trivial in
cidents and particular people annoy
ing. The remedy is to turn the mind
away from the too insistent 81"

STATE ACTIVE IN
RURAL HEALTH WORK
Wisconsin Has Resources of
Training Young Women
for Large Field of
Service.

Through the recent action of its
legislature in adopting a law making
it mandatory for every county in the
state to employ a registered graduate
public health nurse or trained health
instructor and through It's existing
resources for training workers to fill
these and similar positions, Wiscon-
sin Is taking "a unique position of
leadership In the national movement
for better health resources and
especially in the campaign for better
health protection of rural communi-
ties.
Wisconsin Is one comparatively few
states in the union In which a train
ing course for public health nurses is
conducted. It's four months course,
given twice yearly under the direc-
ton of the Wisconsin Anti-Tubercu-
lOsis Association, is of fourteen
courses in the United States recog-
nized by the American Red Cross
in It's awarding OF public health
nursing scholarships. The associa-
tion also conducts a special six weeks
summer course for nurses who have
already had some public health ex-
p~erience, this course beginning July
Z.
1t is the first state to pass a law
making it compulsory for every coun-
ty in the state to employ either a
public health nurse or q public health
instructor. The fact this law is an
expression Of public sentiment is evil
denced by the large number of coun-
ties which have voluntarily provided
for this service, such provision hav-
ing been made in t~Wenty-three of the
seventy-one counties with campaigns
under way In several other counties.
It is predicted that the county which
delays action until compelled by the
law will be the rare exception.
To Wisconsin and its state anti-tu-
berculosis association also goes the
credit OF originating the first course
for the training of health instructors,
a ten months course based on teach
ing instead Of or nursing technique
as q preliminary requirement. The
states first class Of health Instructors
graduates this June and a new class
begins training in September.
Offering of scholarships by the
American Red Cross, the Wisconsin
Anti-Tuberculosis Association. and
other organizations, the fact that a
training course is available within
the state, and the increasing number
of public health positions which are
untitled owing to the rapid growth of
public health positions which are UNI
filed owing to the rapid growth of
the work and the scarcity of trained
workers are expected to attract a
large number of Wisconsin young
women to the field of public health
work within the next few years. Of
the tWenty-three counties which have
made provision for employing a pub
lie health worker eleven are still look
ing for one. Some of the nurses who
have taken public health positions,
both rural and city, are planning to
take the short special course of train
ing this summer.
The Red Cross has set aside a schol-
arship fund of 100000, the scholar
ship allowed in a four months purse
being $500.

Good Berry Crop.

Unless late frosts orr forest fires III.
terfere there is fine prospect for q
bountiful berry crop this year. Rasp-
berries, blueberries and other berries
which grow wild in the northern
counties, will be plentiful according
to all reports from different localities.
This is good news to people who
make a practice of canning berries
for winter consumption. 1t is also
good to know that the sugar supply
will be sufficient to permit them to
can all they can.-New North.

NOT ALL DouGHBoYs

To the Editor sof the New York Eve
 ming Sun.
 That the recent use of theterm dough boys' is a designation for all American is clearly an error. and it is a matter of surprise that it should have become suddenly popular.
 During the civil war the caNairy were-in the habit of making fun of the infantry or foot soldiers as they truds- ed along on the march, covered with mud and dust and so much nearer tie ground or dough than the mounted so'- dier. The cavalry had favorite song of derision~ addressed to the "Little Dirty. Dirty Doughboys. It is claimed that the tune was the bugle call for the cavalry. This designation for the in fantry has stuck for 50 years as close lv as the mud did in the Virginia cam ,aisns of 1861 to 1S6,. To call the ;n- fantry or artillery "doughbeys' is an absolute misuse of the term. The infantry retorted that the req son why they were called 'doughboys was because they were always badly needed tlSneadedl when there was any real fighting to be done

cations than the government weather office.
 It may be that the forecasts to which New York is treated are unde- pendable. Perhaps the meteorological apparatus in the great metropolis is out of fix. If so it should be over hauled.
 But in ether sections of the country where the public is interested in the weather, especially at this time of the year, when the clements change their moods suddenly and cut all sorts of capers, testimony is borne to the ex- cellent service of the bureau. If rain lis foretold it is almost sure to rain, The same may be said of tempera- ture-rising or falling-the forecast is usually fulfilled.
 There have beer-seasons when the weather itself was freakish, not to lsay altogether undependable, but not lin recent years.
 The goosebone prophet is still "giv- ling out" what the clements have in store. He sometimes hits it, but as often misses it. At any rate, it is much safer for one to pin his faith to the reports of Chief Horton, in charge of ] the government station on Fountain Heights, than it is to bet on the most positive predictions of the weather wise amateur.

ROOSEVELT,s ANSWER

From the New York Sun.
 Those who were present at the mass meeting in Madison Square garden late in the campaign of 1917 will never forget the dramatic incident which oc- cured while Roosevelt was speaking in favor of the reelection of Mayor Mitchell, He was talking about the part the United States was taking in the war when a man on the outskirts of the audience shouted. "Why aren't you over there yourself?'' Some men in the crowd began to yell, Put him out! Put him outn' But Roosevelt raised his hand for silence and said. No, don't put him out Let him stay want to answer him. When the audience was stir1 he went on:
 'As l understand 1t. the gentleman wants to know why | am not oye,. tbere. He will have to ask somebody else. This is a very exclusive war so far as 1 am concerned. I was ready to go over With division of men all arm ed and equipped, but our services were not accepted
 ! q couldn't go myself but I did send my four sons, every one of whose lives is thousand times 'dearer to me than my one. TherM you creature. that is my answer to any man who dares to l ask an American father why he isn't engaged in this war!' The colonel began this speech with smile. but he ended it with blaze of wrath and scorn that was simply overw helming.
