has been rapidly developing for the
past two years, has sold three

Truth About "Dry Rot"

In Its investigations Of decay In
wood, the United States forest prod
uets laboratory has found that dry
rot" is popularity understood to be de
cay in comparatively dry places and
in this sense the term may apply to
all kinds of decay i'll wood. Though
the different rot fungi may require va
r1ous degrees Of moisture, absolute
dryness prevents their growth as com
pletely as too much wet. What IS
specifically known as dry rot Is pro-
duced by Merulius lachrymans. ana
this fungus infegts timbers having a
minimum of dampness. When well adj
vanced, the infection causes the WOOD
to become brown or yellowish. shrunk-
en-, and filled with cracks running
crosswise and lengthwise. often with
white masses of fungus showing In the
cracks. The dry rot fungus chlenv
attacks coniferous or soft woods. but
Is very destructive Of timhers In build

States, Canada and Europe.

ed. the intents and purposes Of the
law governing the marketing of po-
tatoes, in his capacity Of State In
spector of the Wisconsin Division of
Markets. AS a protection to the
grower or shipper of large quantities,
the law is undoubtedly a good one,
as under it's provisions, when certified
to by the state as to grade, the outside
buyer must settle ~on that basis,
whereas under the old system,
shippers were often much at the mer-
cy of outside buyers.

the plans for a new high school has
any cause to feel that they have not

Diversified farming will always be
the backbone of Villas county's pro-
gress. It's soil is suited to practically
every crop that can be grown in the
temperate zone, and the yields of
such crops are always a revelation to
the man seeking light on the posi-
bilities Of agriculture in this county.
Vegetables, grains and grasses yield
to perfection in every part Of the
county. 1t makes no difference wheth-
er the farmer standardizes on pOta-
toes,hay, grain, or the smaller pro-
ducts of the truck garden, the re-
suits show that the soil is suited to
them all and the growing season pro-
duces crop fully developed and ma

ABOUT SEED CORN

When the earliest matured ears
are gathered, earliness is secured at
the expense of yield and vitality.
Select only well-formed ears from
vigorous, well-rooted plants.
Seed corn should be selected be-
fore the severe frosts; that is,
about the middle of September.
Seed corn at maturity contains
from 20 to 80 per cent water and the
germ is easily injured by freezing
when the corn contains this large
amount of moisture.
Twice as many seed ears should
be gathered by the farmer as will be
needed for planting. About Is med
ium sized ears will plant an acre.
Seed corn should be put into the
proper place for curing on the same
day it is taken from the field.

What a Man Is Worth.

The average man contains the con-
stituents found in 1000 eggs. has iron
enough to make four tenpenny nails,
fat content to make Is candles and a
good sized piece of soap, not to speak
of a bowl of sugar. Considering that
eggs are selling for 90 cents dozen,
matches at 6 cents box and. candles
for 5 cents each, says the Journal Of
the Minnesota Public Health associa-
ton, $5S2.84 is the actual worth of the
constituents of a grown person, to say
nothing of what the sugar he contains
may be worth.

BONDS ARE VOTED
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
High School District Electors
Vote Necessary Resolu-
tons for Building a
High School.

The special school meeting held by
the Eagle River Union Free High
School District at the high school
Tuesday evening for the purpose of
voting bonds for the new high school
and other business pertaining to that
proposition brought out the largest
crowd ever seen in that building. A
total of 428 ballots were cast on the
first written vote and the attendance
was over that. Thirty or forty cars
brought down the Phelps contingent.
Business at the meeting was taken
up in seven resolutions in order ac-
cording to the published notice of
the meeting The first three resOlu-
tions provided for the designation of
a site for the new building, authori-
cation of the board to acquire the
site, and authorization of the board
to erect the building. All three were
voted by reclamation and carried.
The fourth resolution authorizing the
board to make application for loan.
of $25, 1000 from the state trust funds,
was voted upon by ballot, with the
following result:
For Loan. .........-... ............... 264
Against Loan. 1853
Resolution No. 5, providing for the
levying of taxes to take care of the
foregoing loan was carried by accla-
nation.
Resolution No. 6, authorizing the
board to borrow $125,000 and making
provision for the payment of that
sum by bond issue, was by ballot
with the following result:
For Resolution -----....--..-....-.-...----.245
Against Resolution. ...............22
Resolution No. Z authorized the
tax necessary to take care of the
above sum. The vote by ballot was:
For Resolution. 1877
Against Resolution. .............-.---.0
Any kind of public Improvement
involving as much outlay as mod
ern high school and which reason de-
mands must also provide for the fu-
ture as we'll as the present, necessa-
rily meets with opposition. In this
case, the village and township of
Phelps was known to be against the
idea, having high school aspirations
of their own for some time in the fu-
ture, and came down $50 strong to
voice their sentiments by ballot
Fortunately, we believe for the best
interests of the district as a whole,
the adverse sentiment was far from
being strong enough to be effective.
1t is unfortunate that anything should
occur to mar the friendly relations
that have heretofore existed between
Phelps and Eagle River, as all small
towns need the friendly support of
each other in many ways, and we
think we can say for the citizens of
Eagle River that their hope is that
what was vital necessity for Eagle
River will also prove a valuable as
set to the future prosperity and edu-
cational value to Phelps and it's peo-

its best, the judges finding plenty of
work to do in choosing the winners
from so many excellent specimens.

know that the land he buys will
produce the crops that cut the cost of
living and the Villas county fair has

beets, cabbage, beans, peas, squash,
turnips, pumpkins, corn, tomatoes, in
fact, everything was shown and those
exhibits count. It is not generally
known that apples and small fruits
are grown to any great extent in
Villas county, but the exhibits n those
classes at the fair, show conclusively
that small fruits are money-maker
for the farmer who studies their Gull
ture. Some of the finest apples ever
seen were on display in the main
hall and it is surprising to know that
a good many farmers have orchards
and patches of small fruits nicely
started, that net them easy profit
during the season.

est rate OIL. but they are meeting with
very poor success. People realize that

They fully understand that money viii
not be loaned iR Oregon at per cent
when it can be loaned in adjoining
states at 5 per cent.
The present low price Of Liberty
bonds on the open market presents an
interesting phase of this situation.
Liberty bonds can now be purchased
at a price which will net the owner
between 5 and per cent. If money
could not be loaned in Oregon at a
greater rate than per cent naturally
persons with money to loan would buy
Liberty bonds instead Of l0anlng their
money.
If this measure should pass. every
loan in Oregon which is now in effect
would be called when it becomes due.
This would mean the forecloure of
practically every Oregon mortgage. and
business houses which have to finance
themselves with borrowed capital,
would be forced out Of business.
