UNIQUE EFFICY
DEDICATED AT
Fl. ATKINSON
Only Known Intagio of Indian
Creation Now Duly Marked and
In Its Own Little Park

Some 1000 persons Saturday at
tended the marking, by an appro-
pirate tablet, of the only intaglio
effigy in the world. It is that of a
panther, and lies in a tiny park less
than half an acre in size, near the
Rock river, almost within the bound
aries OF Fort Atkinson. Originally
there were eleven of such depressed
eff1gies known in the state, but all
have been effaced by the plow but
one near the home of A. G. Glover,
Baraboo
Elaborate exercises, includ.ing an
Indian pageant, characterized the OBJ
servance. There was graceful fancy
dance given by Miss Mary Caswell,
granddaughter of the late Congress
man L. B. Caswell, a sweet Indian
cradel song in costume by Miss Mable
Downing, a JOY dance by Gabriel NAL
lotte, blanket dance by a company of
''ypung warriors" bow and arrow
dance, and other dances, all by white
men, women, or children in Indian
garb of gay co1ors. Across the river
were tepees in the trees, and from,
them streamed the Indians into
canoes; and thus most particularly
they approached the shore to parti-
cipate in the pageant, which was ex-
ecuted with much realism and great
charm.
An address of welcome was made
by Mrs. George w. Dexheimer of Fort
Atkinson, regent of the D. A. r.
with response by P. V. Lawson of
Menasha, who said there had been
784 nHounds Varound L ake Kdshgo-
nong alone. To Indians, he said, we
are indebted for potatoes, corn, and
tobacco, and they made cloth with
warp and wool and knot, the same
as We.
Addresses were also given by DR..
S. A. Barrett, Milwaukee; Charles E.
Brown, Madison; Miss Louise p. Kel-
logg, Madison; and Mayor w. H.
Weld, Fort Atkinson.
Among those at the dedication were
O. D. Brandenburg, Madison; Mr. and
Mrs. F. r. Melcher, Madison, former
ly of Baraboo; and II. E. Cole, Bara-
boo.

SHORT SALES"

From the grain states of the middle West there goes
Congress nssnt demand that Federal legislation be enact
ed to restrict if not to terminate what called short sales
of wheat and other grains asserted that the sales of grain
sometimes fold greater than the actual grain exist
and that the short selling of grain tends to reduce the
market price bringing consequent loss to the farmer and dis
couragement to food production.
There who urge prohibition of future saes
but is believed by others that there is justification for
sales of wheat which the seller does not possess For example,
-four manufacturer desires to make sales to his customers In
order make price his flour he know the of the
wheat In order to be reasonably the cost of the
wheat he must make for delivery of wheat at his mill
The miller makes contracts not with the farmer direct but with
the of elevator who will buy grain from the farmers
when the grain has been thresed The elevator man. there
fore, makes contract with the flour miller deliver wheat
which he does not already possess and the miller takes
orders for -four which he has not yet manufactured and the
material which he has not yet secured Most people
nize transaction of this kind perfectly legitimate Manu-
of all classes take orders for goods which they
not made and sometimes for goods for which they not
yet purchased the materials.
But the great majority of those who protest against short
selling of crops aiming their objections at those ransac
tons which gambling and in which there nten
ton that there shall be delivery actual grain These
are sales made principally margin the seller paying the
difference in cash if the price of grain should 60 up 1t is a
parent that the short seller whether he be seller for
purely gambling purposes for actual delivery of grain
selfish interest reducing the price of the commodity for if
after he has contracted for the delivery of certain quantity

amount of the difference.
1t is vlamed that in respects agricultural producers
are the of advanced sales of crops yet
for instance contract for part of their output
OF the canning They selling or
tables which they do not but having contracts
for the delivery OF their canned product they position
buy promptly from the producers the crop ready for
harvest Without these advance sales of canned product
might be adequate market for fruit which would
therefore spoil on the hands of the producer
Because OF the tremendous drop the market price of
wheat corn and OATS causing loss the producers
this whole subject of sales of futures is of particular inter
est to farmers at this time and it certain that the subject will
be pressed upon the attention of Congress with demand for
legislation The nature of legislation which would be beneficial
TO the business OF the country whole will therefore be ex
tensivey discussed only Washington but in
and trade circles throughout the country
