BirnarnWOOd 40; Eagle High rs

Birnamwood won from Eagle River
High last Friday by a final score of 40
TO 25. The visitors were a bigger set
of men and outweighed the locals. It
was an uphill fight for the losers dur
ing the whole game, but at that they
held their opponents to a Is to IA
score in the first half. The game was
the fastest yet seen on the home floor,
the locals working with speed that
made the Birnamwood basketeers
hustle for all their points.
The score is given below.

CUNDERSON'S NOTES
FOR Villas FARMERS
Early Dates Will Make 1t I'm
possible for Villas County
at State Fair No TINT
Available This Year.
THE STATE FAIR

This year the State Fair dates are
from Aug. 80 to Sept. 5. To show
there would necessitate holding our
local Fair about Aug 18th and 26tn.
This is impossible as we can all see.
Nothing is ripe then except the grass
es. 1t will simply mean that Villas
county can have no exhibit at the
State Fair this year. doubt if there
will be a single one of the northern
counties that will exhibit
The setting of these dates was
fragrant piece of favoritism that is
being resented by the entire northern
half of the state
A plan is under way now to get all
northern counties to bring their ex-
hibits to the Northern State Fair at
Chippewa Falls, Sept. Ii to IT. The
management tells us that they have
an attendance of 10000 day and
that people come from the western
states and from as far south as
Texas. According to these statements
it would be as valuable an advertise
ment to show there as at Milwaukee.
One thing is certain. It does not
pay to show at Milwaukee if our
products are not mature. We must
show our best or not at all. I think
the truth of the matter is that the
north has carried off too many prizes
in the past and by putting on the
Fair earlier the southern part of tie
state can stand better show of win
ming prizes.
DYNAMITE OR INT
We had hoped that this spring we
would have been able to get several
cars of INT to distribute at small
price. It now looks as though we had
hoped in vain. We will not attempt
to explain why it is necessary to keep
60 million pounds of high explosive
stored away in time of peace to dete-
riorate and become useless. OF course
were it given out, the dynamite COM
panies would have slim business for
while. It is hard to believe that
these concerns can stop the distribu-
Eials
There is so much of demand for
explosives this spring that we have
decided to take orders and distribute
dynamite, caps and fuse at cost as
has been done for several years. In
the meantime if INT should become
available we can get that instead.
Order blanks are being sent out from
this Office and printed in both local
papers.
GRAIN CLEANING AND TREATING
This spring this Office will have two
tanning mills and two smut machines
so that all who want to treat and
clean their seed grains can get an OPP
portunity. The most economical
method is for the farmers of one
neighborhood to bring their grain to
one place and treat and clean at once.
This saves time which would other
wise be taken up in moving the ma
chimes and setting t hem up. Later
on plans and announcements will be
made out so the farmers may know
where the machines will be used.
FARMERS INSTITUTES
Late in March or early in April
there will be held two Farmers Insti-
tutes, one at Eagle River and one at
Phelps. Announcements and pro-
grams will be sent out later. OSCAR

EUROPE ESTABLISHES
SHIP LINES TO CHILE

VALPARAISO, Feb. l0.-ltaly. Swe-
den and France have taken steps to
open South American m; rkets by es-
tablishing steamship lines to Chilean
ports. one Italian steamship company
composed of the TransatantiCa ltaliana
and the NaciOnal de Navigation, already
has sent two steamers to Chile by the
Panama route. 1t is announced that
the company intends to add ten more
steamers to the line, making a total of
six passenger and six freight vessels
which will voyage alternately by the
Straits of Magellan and the Panama ca
nal
The government of Chile has agreed
to subsidze these ships by payment OF
700 pounds sterling for each cargo
shipped, and 900 pounds sterling to each
passenger and freight vessel
More recently the Italian Navigation
company has sent to Chile its steamer
La Neloce. The Compagnie Generate
TransatlantiQue announces that direct
communication will be established be-
tween Havre and Valparaiso by way OF
Panama by the use Of the steamer San
Luis The Swedish company has re-
sumed service to Chile and there Is talk
of a Dutch line of steamers from Java
by the way of Australia.
As result Of these activities freights
have begun to decline. This has stimu-
| lated the commerce of all the west
coast and especially the expectation of
nitrate and the agricultural products OF
Chile.

Threatened Strike.

NEW YORK Feb. 10.-The stock
market was beset with fresh difficult
ties at the opening of today's session.
Overnight announcement of the strike
call of one of the railway brotherhoods

This was not especially directed
against railway shares, however, ship
pings, motors and steels showing the
most heaviness. Reactions in these
groups ran from one to two points, oils
and coppers also falling back, Sterling
exchange showed no material change
from yesterdays final quotation.
The market became weak at mid
day, despite the favorable tonnage Of the
United States Steel corporation and the
further relaxation of cal money to

featured the more extensive decline aC-
companied by investment rails and rep
resentative industrials.
The closing was weak. Sales ap-
proximated $4,000 shares.

DRUNKENNESS Low
IN DETROIT'S YEAR
Approached Vanishing Point
in 1919.

DETROIT. Mich. Feb 10.-Drunkcn
ness in Detroit dropped toward the
vanishing point in 1918, according to
the annual report of Police Commits
sioner Inches. Arrests for drunken
ness reached the highest rate in pro-
portion to population In 1917. there was
a drop to the level of four years be
fore in 1918, and last year the effect
Of the great drought made itself fully
apparent.
A table prepared by the commissioner
