The Fuel Administration Predicts an
Advance in Price.
In response to letter to Duane
Mowry, secretary of the property own
ers and renters association, Milwaukee,
Cyrus Gainsey, assistant United States
fuel administrator writes from Wash
,ington as follows:
"In reply to your inquiry relative to
prices of coal, will say that in all
probability, there will be no reduction,
but on the contrary, prices will no
doubt advance considerably before fall
"The price of anthracite coal is
rather low in comparison to the in
creased cost of production f. O. b. the
mines. It would be wise for the con-
sumer to lay in his winter supply as
soon as possible for, undoubtedly,
prices will be higher this fall and win
ter when the demand may possibly
exceed the supply.
"The prices seem apparently high to
the consumer in your territory, but
when then increased cost of transporta-
ton and the retail cost of delivery to
the cellars are considered, the price of
coal has advanced less than other COM
modities which are household necessi
ties

A YOUNG SOLDIER AT HOME

John Hanscom, lately returned from

Before the United States entered the
war he went out from Beloit College

much actual experience, and man of
broad, sound vision on national and in

THE JUNIOR LIVESTOCK EX-
HIBITION
Mineral Point Boys Have Many Good
Entries.

Mineral Point Boys Have Many Good
Entries.
Mineral Point gets all the honors fol-
Iowa county's representation in the
calf classes at the Junior Livestock Elk
position at Madison this year. Lee
Jewell may not be the youngest stock
man to show, but he doesn't expect
anyone else of his age to have quite sc
many entries, s,-two Hereford heifers
and steer, to say nothing of eight en- =
tries in the sheep classes. Lee was the
youngest baby beef raiser at the baby
beef show last year and placed high.
Herbert Kelly, also of Mineral Point,
has entered senior and junior Here
ford calf, and George Day has junior
Shorthorn.
Still further entries will be forthcom
ing from this county, it is believed. be-
fore the pig and lamb divisions are
closed July l. The entries in these di
visions will be announced as soon as
they are complete.
"The county that is represented by
these boys and girls at the Junior Live
stock Exposition can we'll be proud
says w. L. Hoaser, president Of the
Wisconsin Livestock Breeders associa
tion This association is conducting
the exposition, the first of it's kind in
the country, it is believed. The show
will be held in the University Stock Pa
vilion, at Madison, November 81
Where the number of consignments is
large enough, sales will be held in each
division.
Entries have been limited to young
people from to 18 years old, inclusive,
except in the baby beef division where
for this year the ages 10 to 20 years will
be kept. The divisions are baby beef,
dairy calf. dual purpose calf, colt, pig
and lamb.
The premium list fund has already
reached $4,000. Cooperation between the
state livestock breeders association and
the national breed associations and local
breeders, has assured not only large
number of cash prizes but many special
prizes such as silver loving cups and
purebred livestock.

My Fellow COuntrymen The treaty
has been signed. If it is ratified and
acted upon in full and sincere execu-
ltion Of its terms, it will furnish the
charter for a new order of affairs in
the world. 1t is a severe treaty in
the duties and penalties it imposed
upon Germany, but it is severe only be-
cause great wrongs done by Germany
are to be righted and repaired.
1T imposes nothing that Germany
cannot do; and she can regain her
rightful standing in the world by the
prompt and honorable fulfillment Of
it's terms.
Liberates Great Peoples.
"And it is much more than a treaty
of peace with Germany. It liberates
great peoples who have never before
been able to find the way to liberty.
"It ends, once for all, an old and
lntolerable order under which small
groups of selfish men could use the
peoples of great empires to serve their
ambition for power and domination.
"It associates the free governments
of the world in a permanent league Of
which they are pledged to use their
united power to maintain peace by
maintaining right and justice. 1t makes
international law a reality supported
by imperative sanction.

other sports. Dodge was given great
support and Mobiles pitched himself out
of holes. which held the large crowd
spellbound and produced great applause.
The Races
There were small fields in the horse
races; but the racing was very good.
Southern Boy 2:14 won the..free for all j;
Bonnie Exponent the $50 trot in 2 :294 +;
and Czarina the farmers trot.
The Red Cross.
That the Red Cross paid no small
part in the reunion of June 26, was
evidenced by the hundreds of soldier
and sailor boys who accepted their hos
pitality in the spirit it was offered and
made the gymnasium Red Cross Head
quarters for the day. home for them
selves and their friends during their
stay in the city.
Four hundred and fifty boys from all
parts of this state and from other states
signed their names in the register and
partook of bounteous dinner and sup
per which was provided by their friends,
the ladies of the Red Cross of the city
and surrounding country.
One boy expressed the sentiment of
his comrades as he came up from din
ner, patting himself in the region where
the stomach is supposed to be, and said,
"Gee that was great. No such Chow
as that was ever served in the army"
The rest room was thing of beauty
and joy for at least a day, and much
credit is due the young ladies and men
who put forth such an effort to furnish
the upper floor of the gym as "hostess
house."
The dance at night, also gift from
the Red Cross, closed day of JOY and
proved to the boys in khaki and the
boys in blue that the hearts of the peo-
pie in this community beat true to home
and country, and that we appreciate to
the fullest extent the sacrifices made by
them for home and native land.
Address by Chaplain Clark
After a band coucert on Municipal
Park Lawn, in the evening, Thomas M
Priestley introduced Senior Chaplain
Robert HI. Clark of La Crosse, who
delivered patriotic address, which
which was we'll received by very
large audience. The speaker departed
from the customary 4th of July style OF
oratory and presented his views to the
audience in a plain and matter of fact
manner that won much favor. His
address was strong appeal for an
Americanism of sane progress and q
warning that our losses would be in
vain if the ideals of American Democ-
racy were not the guiding power in the
period of reconstruction.
