Judge Ben Lindsey in Film
Production Dealing With
Youth at Rivoli Theater

1t seems difficult to imagine "boys'
judge" one who understands youth
psychology and can mix mercy with
justice, without Immediately thinking
of Judge Ben Lindsey, founder of the
Juvenile Court in Denver and cham
pion of similar organizations through
out the country. Judge Lindsey's name
is known from coast to coast as friend
as we'll as judge, and it was the most
logical thing to invite him to become
a screen actor when 'The Soul of
Youth" William D. Taylors Realart
picture, was being cast
"The Soul of YOUTH is a screen story
of boyhood, written by Julia Crawford
lvers, who wrote the scenarios of "Tom
"Huck and Tom" trio of Mark Twain
film features, which gave her par
ticularly happy insight in boy psychol-
ogy. Mrs. 1vers wrote both the story
and scenario of ."The Soul of Youth, y
which Hugo Riesenfeld has selected as
the screen attraction for the Rivoli
Theater this week.
AS Judge Lindsey understands boy
psychology probably better than al
most any other person, he was the
choice for the role of the kindly judge
In the picture. The judge has not de-
serted the bench for the screen, but
accented the big role in "The Soul OF
Youth" because the moral Of Mrs.
1vers's story appealed to him in that it
reflected some Of his ideas regarding
youthful delinquency. The Judge was
one of the first of the social workers
to recognize the fact that young law
breakers were not necessarily criminals
and that the impressionable young
minds learned more about crime in the
courts than elsewhere.
Just how Judge Lindsey works is
shown with startling fidelity in "The
Soul of Youth"

Mardi Cras, Steeplechase,
To Be More Elaborately
Done Than Ever Before

The annual Mardi Gras at Steeple-
chase Park, from September 13 to 10,
is expected to outdo any former
pageant of its kind there. Souvenirs
appropriate for the Mardi Gras will be
distributed to the visitors during the
week. Two military bands have been
engaged for the Mard Gras period to
assist the regular bands. The pools
and surf have been taxed to capacity
lately. The masked diving girl, who
has interested the visitors at Steeple-
chase for the last two seasons, again
was the center of attraction. She wore
the usual red mask and proved to be
the same splendid diver. Her identity
is still a puzzle.

leadership of Vincent Rosati, gives two

BURNS PROVE FATAL
TO REEDsDURG CHILD

Little Madeline Bentz, Reedsburg,
aged / year and IL months, died Tues
day afternoon from the result Of burns
received when her clothing caught
fire. How the little one came to meet
with this terrible accident is not
known. The child was staying at the
home Of her grandmother, Mrs. Hoefer
who lives about miles east of Reeds
burg. It seems that she had been put
to sleep after dinner, and the mem
bers OF the family went out to the
field to work. Later they were attract
ed by the piercing screams Of the child
and hurrying to the house they found
her enveloped in flames. The supposi-
ton is that she awoke from her sleep
0und some matches and in hef
them set fire to her clothing. The
funeral was held yesterday afternoon
from the farm home.-Reedsburg

This morning as Henry Koppke was

discovered the fire endeavored to

SHARP DROP
Is QUOTED in
MILK PRICES
Quotations of Armour & Co. and
Nestle Food Co. Lowest For Past
Year

Announcement was made by w. r..
Montague, president of the Valecia
Evaporated Milk Co. of Madison yes
terday that the Nestle Food Co. has an
nounced a sharp decline in milk pri-
ces, placing the price at $3.50 per
hundred pounds for milk testing per
cent butter fat this price being effec-
tive at Reedsburg. Lodi, aud Menomi-
nee. Montague also stated that Armour
& Co. at Stoughton quoted prices at
$3.50 per hundred pounds for milk
testing 3.5 per cent butter fat Other
local dealers, however, stated that they
could not conceive prices as low as
that.
There has been uneasiness in the
milk situation for the last few
months; local dealers stated. A
price as low as either of the above
mentioned has not existed during
the last year. During the summer
months, Chicago adopted uniform
price of 1870 per hundred pounds,
to remain for period of three
months. This price seemed to be too
high and Chicago dealers themselves
did not pay it for the entire three,
months AS a result of this all deal
ers began to shift for themselves so
that large range in prices was
quoted. This unsettled condition in
the milk market has been most prom
inent since August l. No quotations
lower than SO had been quoted since
that time
Local dealers declare that such
decline in price is hardly probable,
insomuch as cattle are about to be
put under shelter for the winter ne
cessitating the feeding of hay and
grain and naturally causing a shrink
age in the milk supply.
Over so milk factories have closed
entirely, dealers declare, and it is
expected that more will close in the
near future. Local dealers also stat
ed that the quoting of prices as low
as $3.50 per hundred pounds for milk
testing per cent must mean that the
factories quoting those prices do not
care to buy any and are anxious to
close down. 1t was stated, moreover
that at such prices it would be more
profitable fer farmers to skim their
milk and make butter Of cheese

MOST WOOD
EMPLOYED IN
AGRICULTURE
Farmer Is Most Independent of
Anyone in the Nation Concern
ing Use of Wood

Agriculture is the greatest wood
using industry of the United States,
said Colonel w. B. Greeley, forester
in department of agriculture at Wash
ington D. 6. "Forty-six per cent of all
the wood which the country consumes
annually is used on it's farms. The
yearly lumber bill for farm structures
and improvements aggregates 6% BID
lion board feet! Farm requirements
fer boxes barrels and other articles
r1anufactured- from wood call for
nearly four billion board feet addi-
tional each year. Add to these re-
Quirements the 80 million cords of fuel
wood consumed annually by farmers
and over billion cubic feet of fenc'
ing material and it is easily seen
that farmers have a greater interest
in an assured supply Of timber at
reasonable prices than any other class
Of American citizens.
The farmer is the most independ-
ent OF anyone in the nation when it
comes to wood, said Colonel Greeley.
He might be equally Independent in
the matter of timber. He owns, in
the aggregate, more forest land than
the lumbermen and all other private
owners combined. Farm woodlots or
woodlands reach the enormous total
of 191 million acres and comprise two
ffths of the forest area Of the United
States. East of the Mississippi river
they cover 153 million acres or 45
per cent of all the forest A rough
estimate PLACES the timber standing
in the farm woodlots of the eastern
states at $40 billion fee, or 40 per cent
of timber in this region. And this
quantity. includes over half of our
remaining hard woods.

SAVING THE
BY-PRODUCTS
OF SAWMILLS
May Outyalue Finished Lumber in
Near Future is Prediction of
Timber Authority

That the by products OF the saw
mill will outvalue in the near future
the finished lumber is the prediction
of a western timber authority.
Only 40 per cent of our cut timber
is utilized The rest is thrown away.
This means that the unused so per cent
is in such shape that it would not pay
to use it. The problem of utilizing
waste material, says this authority, is
that Of making its utilization profitable
The enhanced value of timber today
is making profitable the conversion of
waste into merchantable products.
Alcohol tanning extracts, turpentine,
pine-oils, fiber for rugs, carpets. bags
and all sorts of fabrics, imitation
leather, linoleums, insulating mater
ials these are few of the products
obtainable from sawmill waste which
was formerly thrown away.
1t has been predicted that the by
product distillates of wood as wood
and grain alcohol, may sometimes
equal other sawmill products in value.
Grain alcohol may be produced from
any wood at relatively low cost and
bya process that yields other products
of value as well. This may become a
substitute for oil and gasoline in the
operation of engines for automobiles
and automotive machinery.
Tanning extracts are made mostly
from the bark OF Oak and .hemlock
Turpentine comes from wood posses
ing necessary .resinous content. In fact
practically every wood possesses i'm
portant by product possibilities that
may be greatly increased by chemical
experts.
AS chemical Investigations advance
and new uses are found for wood
waste, the percentage of. waste will be
sIsadiiy iiyasatsde Iseas of the tree will
be left insthe woods; less will be dis
carded at the mill, and eventually the
value of the by products will at least
approach the value of the direct pro
ducts of the sawmill
1t is along just this line that the
Forest Products Labratory in Madison
is operating.

job is finished this fall depends on the
