Mr.. Business Man Whose Business Ia
Farming


There never was time when it was
more ''up to you" to do your best
thinking about the next election in
Wisconsin. You have been told many
things, some of them true, some Of
them half true and some wholly false.
The writer was at one time farm
or but is now business man in the
city. There are some things I have
learned that are worth while for you
to think about.
If man tells you something that
seems to be little @out Of line", its
a mighty good thing to find out, who
the man is, why he tells you what he
does and if he knows what you should
do better than you know yourself.
/ happen to know that there are q
number of men going about this state
getting so much per head, for getting
men to join this, that or the other or
|ganization. One of them charges $18
per head. Did you ever stop to think
where this money goes?
If Wisconsin is going to be the kind
of state that most of us want to live
in, all good things must have general
support. 81
1t will not be that kind of state
if manufacturing business prospers at
the expense of farming business. Nor
will it be the kind Of tate we want
if the farming business prospers at
the expense of the manufacturing
business.
The business man who is farming
needs the business man who is man.
featuring and also the other way
about.
All business interests need the best
men possible in our many public Of
fees. We need men who have had
experiences and can deal intelligently
with the big questions of today. We
need men, not who say that t hey can
handle big things, but who have
shown the ability to do so.
1t seems that some people. want to
place such burdens on industry in
this state that many concerns will
have to quit Wisconsin or quit busi-
ness.
II this should happen, the value OF
your property would fall and you
would have sharper competition he.
cause you would have to ssll your
produce farther away from home.
While you doubtless want to keer
your boys and girls on the farm. Il
they do wish to go to live In some
city, don't you prefer that they have
chances to "make good" in your owf
state?
Vote Cor the man you believe vii
be fair enough to want everybody tt
have chance, who will try to build
up the interest of the state as :
whole, and who will not try TO put ons
set of men against any other set Of
men.
You are citizen Of the State o1
Wisconsin and as such, vote as your
own conscience tells you, and not al
you are told to do by those whose own

cool sponge baths should be given,
and the amount of food on especially
hot days should be reduced to two
thirds of the ordinary amount, large
quantities of water being given in ad-
dition.
The disease is more frequent in
bottle-fed babies. If it occurs in a
-l-
nursing babyit is usually because the
baby has been nursed too often or at
irregular intervals, or has been given
food other than milk. Extend the
nursing interval and allow the baby
to nurse only 5 or 10 minutes. IF
the trouble continues, withhold the
breast altogether for some hours un-
til there is an improvement. Give a
little water to drink now and them.
For bottle-fed babies, if the dis
turbance is slight, the amount of
milk used in the feelings should be
reduced by half, skinned, and all
sugar ommitted. If the trouble is
more severe, all foods should be
stopped, only plain boiled water
should be given, and a physician
should be consulted at once.
A baby takes some time to get
back to full vigor after even slight
digestive disturbances, and the re-
turn to food must be gradual. It
will ia ke from 10 days to weeks to
restore the normal condition Of the di-
gestive tract. A second attack Of
illness OCCURS much more readily
than the original one.

WEALTHY PRESIDENTS

If George Washington were run
ming for President today, he would
probably be denounced as pluto
crat. A recent compilation of esti-
mates of the wealth of Presidents of
the United States shows that the Fa-
the. Of his country was richer than
any Of his successors.
Washington's property, when he
was first elected to the Presidency,
was worth, according to his own fig
ures, SS00,000. The value of dol
iar was six times as much then as 1t
il today. Washington's wealth, there
fore, according to present standards,
was nearly $5,o0O,Oo0.
The next richest President was
Theodore Roosevelt, who in 1901,
when dollars were three times as val
liable as they are now, was wortL
100000, and whose wealth may
therefore be set down AS $1,000 900.
Ey the same rule Of computation, It
IS established that James Buchanan
was worth, at present rates, $1,600,-
Oc0; Zachary Taylor, $1,5OO 900, Grow
er Cleveland. $1,2OO,oO0; and Martin
Van Buren, .$1,O0O,odO. These six
seem to have been the only million
aires.
Woodrow Woisln
Woodrow Wilson, when he became
president, is said to have possessed
property worth $4,000, which at
present valuations would amount to
two and one-half times that much.
Abraham Lincoln was worth, in 1861,
$4,000, which would be 100000 now
William H. Taft is credited with hav-
ing been the poorest of all, possess
mig only $1,50O when he became Pres
ident in 1909, or s4,50O in present
value.
Senator Harding is reported to be
worth about 100000 and Governor
Cox about $1OOO,OOO Each has made
his money himself. Neither is par
/ ticularly poor or wealthy. The for
mer. If elected, will take with him
into the supreme American office
, about the average wealth Of our Pres
! idents, or the latter, If the figures are
correct may be called millionaire
president. That term carries no spe-
cal distinction at a time when there
are more than 10000 millionaires in
the United States, and anyone with
a single million is lost in the crowd.
1t is noteworthy that Americans, as
a rule, do not choose their wealthy
men for public office. For the Pres
idency, particularly, wealth has usu-
ally been regarded as a handicap and
poverty as recommendation Pen

AN IMPORTANT ROAD MATTER

The interest or the meeting OF the
Chamber of Commerce at it's luncheon
today was centered in the matter of
tie expenditure of the remaining
money of the district bond issue,
which il was the sense of the meeting
is in danger of being diverted very
much to the disadvantage Of Lake.
land.
The bond issue contemplated the
construction of the road around Lake
Hollingsworth, which is completed; !;
a road from Lakeland to Foxtown,
aNd a road intersecting the latter road
about six miles north of Lakeland,
and extending to Socrum.
The road from Lakeland to Fox
town Is part of the main highway
north through Leesburg, which short
ems the distance between Lakeland
and Leesburg some 40 miles or more
as against the present route which
goes by Orlando. It has always been
considered as the most important road
in this section to the interests Of
Lakeland.
The Socrum road serves only a
comparatively few people, being In
effect a neighborhood road. Those
people can get to Lakeland BY an
asphalt road through Kathleen.
The people Of Lakeland are pro.
v:ding perhaps nine-tenths Of the
money for this bond issue. They
ought to have the road that will be Of
some benefit to them.
There is at present about $89,O0O OF
the bond money on nand. To put the
road to Foxtown in good shape, %
originally intended will absorb most
ci this sum.
II it is divided equally between the
two roads, there will be a clay road
to Socrum, and three miles Of tho
Foxtown road must be left without
asphalt.
The people of Lakeland feel that
as they are putting up the money,
they should have some say-so as to
where it shall be spent.
They want asphalt on the nine
miles to Foxtown as they were prom
ised. They believe this important
work should be done first, and then
whatever funds may be left can be
used for the Socrum road
That was the unanimous sense of
the representative business men at
the luncheon today. So strongly were
they imbued with the justice of this
arrangement that the meeting ad-
jcurned, after an animated discus
sion, to go to Barlow, where the
County Commissioners are in session,
TO ask them to do what is considered
the square thing by Lakeland.
1t is hoped that this road may be
finished at this time. If it is not, it is
problematical when Lakeland will get
the long-desired through short line
10 the Lake county line-a road which
would bring tremendous amount OF
travel through Lakeland, that by the
adoption of another route may be for
ever lost TO this city.
