Questions in Dispute

A compromise was reached yesterday
on tho recently submitted demands of
the 10000 organized milk drivers and
affiliated workers in the milk industry
OF Greater New York and outlying dis
tricts.
The milk distributors, as represented
in the New York Milk Conference
Board, decided to accept the union dele
gates proposal for arbitration of the
controversy growing out of the new de-
mands.
The union membershin, as represent
ID by about 1000 men in mass meeting
At Madison Square Garden. adopted a
resolution pledging themselves TO go
on working under the present agreement
until the differences shall have been
finally settled by board Of arbitration,
three members of which shall be ap-
pointed by the Milk Drivers Union
and three by the Milk Distributors
Committee. A seventh member will be
chosen by the other six.

the State Federation of Labor and act
ing chairman Of Local 584 of the Inter

Chauffeurs, of which the milk drivers
organization is part, presided and IN

The milk drivers receive at present

Another development in the milk
situation which, however, does not
concern the labor question, was the

Bedtime Stories
Buster Bear Digs for Dinner
by Thornton w. Burgess
Who simple food doth neuer scorn
W'U seldom be by hanger torn.
Thornton W. Burgess

Buster Bear is big fellow and, of
course, he needs great deal Of food
But Buster long ago learned that peo-
PIE who are too fussy about their food
are likely to 60 hungry very often.
Nothing is more uncomfortable than an
empty stomach. 1t spols ones dis
position. 1t makes bad temper The
best-natured people in the world are
those who are best fed.
Now, as a rule Buster Bear is good
natured, one Of the best-natured peo-
pie in all the Green Forest, and one
reason is that excepting very early in
the spring when he first comes out he
has plenty to eat. And the reason he
has plenty to eat is that he is not fussv
about his food. He eats what he can
lind, not simply what he wants, and is
thankful for the simplest kind of food
No one, unless it be his small cousin.
bobby Coon, eats so MANY kinds of
things as Buster Bear.
Buster likes meat when he can get it.
but meat Is q small part of his food.
Fish, frogs, insects, fruit, nuts, even
bark and leaves when nothing better
can be found, are eaten by Buster Bear.
And many good meals has he made on
certain roots. SO Buster almost al
ways manages to keep his stomach from
Z,
eating whatever is provided, which is
more than can be said of a great many
people.
1t chanccd that one day as Buster
was passing through q certain swampy
place near the Laughing Brook he re-
membered that in the early spring he
had had more than one good meal there
on the roots of a certain plant which
everybody knows - Jacl1-in- tn pulpit.
Buster smacked his lips at the memory
Those roots had tasted almost as good
as the honey he had had so recently
for food had been scarce in the early
spring and his stomach had been verv
empty He wondered if they would
taste as good now.
81 believe III try few just to see
how they do taste" muttered Buster in
his deep, rumbly, grumbly voice a

that change will be good

damp earth, and presently he uncov-
cred one of those little roots. His lit
tie eyes twinkled as he saw it. and he
promptly ate it Now, it was a small

Almost Snowbound.

The high winds this week have
almost put a stop to vehicle and
wheel traffic. Hauling on the
roads is difficult because of the
many hard packed drifts. The
railroads are experiencing the
greater difficulty, owing to poor
steaming coal and badly drifted
tracks. Yesterday morning an
empty train load of logging cars
northbound were showed IN
near Clearwater. Severalengines
and a big crew Of men were
necessary in order to move the
train from its position in a deep
cut near that village. The pass
enger train south had two en-
gines, and of course it was sever
al hours late on its down and up
trips.

At the parents teachers meet
ing last week Thursday, this
question of the urgency of a new
high school building was taken
up and discussed thoroughly. A
bond issue of $4,000 to take
care of the erection of a modern
building was not considered out
of bounds, but would nicely meet
the matter of present day cost in
building and equipment.
What matters it if 5000, 600
were necessary. Is not it up to
us to provide sufficiently for the
education of the future man and
woman?

RECRUITING FOR NAVY
Naval Recruiting Agent in
Eagle River Last Week
Wants Young Men for the

the u. S. Navy, and with head
quarters at Rhinelander, was in
Eagle River last week Thursday.

ing this entire portion of the
state and the upper peninsula OF
Michigan for desirable men.
He will return to Eagle River
the latter part of this month,
and after that make regular
twice a month visits here. To
the Young fellow with no home
ties, the navy offers exceptional
opportunities with good pay.
Mr.. Grubich states that any
naval man who has his original
discharge, will upon its represen,
tation to him, receive a Victory
service button.

Work of the Vicious Press.

There are widely circulated
newspapers in this country that
have done much more to bring
about the condition for which
the deported anarchists are
blamed than those anarchists
have done and there are men
still prominent in public life OF
whom the same assertion may
be safely made. Until these two
sources of vicious propaganda
are dealt with the country will
not return to sanity and health.

son, one OF the early landmarks
has been lost. Coming to this
country of woods and water ov-
er forty years ago, he has been
able to see the changes from pine
forests to farms materialize with
a rapidity that was astonishing.
Where he once carried pack or
canoe across country. now the
automobile has wiped out all
those early-day hardships; and
the oldtime men lost that part
of Natures beauties they had
viewed day after day on the por-
tage from lake to lake or lake to
river.
Mr.. Tellefson was born in Dane
county, this state, seventv-three
years ago. At the age of seven
teen he enlisted in Company F,
Wisconsin Volunteers, serving
until the end of the war. He was
one Of the few old Civil War vet
Grams now left in Villas county,
and his patriotism for his coun-
try was nobly shown in our re-
cent struggle with Germany.
He was true American.
Thirty-6ve years ago he was
married to Miss Josephine Frog
ner, she surviving. Two sisters
and a brother survive, a brother
and sister living at Rockdale, in
this state, and another sister at

BACK TO THE BUCK LAW
Only Salvation for Conserva-
ton of Deer in Northern
Wisconsin-New York State
Proves 1t.

The following article taken
from one of the best papers in
the state Of New York, is well
worth the reading, as it paral-
lels the deer situation in Wiscon-
sin.
New York repealed the buck
law, and this article will tell you
just what happened in that state
when it was done. The article
reads:
Removing the buck law and al
lowing the shooting of does dur
ing the hunting season last
fall has had one good effect. 1t
has proved the real worth of the
buck law and there is little
doubt that the state will place it
back on the statutes. One OF the
pet theories which was advanced
last year when the repeal was
before the legislature was that
there would be but few does
killed and that hunters would
continue to take only bucks, but
the fallacy of that is pretty well
proved by the reports that are
now reaching the conservation
commission. These reports show
that there were approximately
three does killed for every buck
taken and that large number
of immature deer were shot. In
fact, the hunters blazed away at
anything old enough to have lost
| it's spotted coat.
Marshall Mclean, counsel tor
the conservation commission,
has issued statement based on
incomplete figures, that shows
that there were 10000 hunters
after $4,000 deer and that the
slaughter was tremendous

little doubt that deer would be.
