CAPITAL BACK
TOORIGINALSITE
Territorial Home of Wis.
Law Makers Restored
at Belmont.
RICH in STATE HISTORY

Madison, Wis., isconsin's pioneer
territorial capitol at Belmont has had
its exterior restored to its original
position as it stood in the heart of
the mining district to house the first
territorial Legislature which gathered
there Oct. %, 1886. By an act of the
1915 session of the Wisconsin legis-
lature the old territorial capitol has
been restored and will be used as
museum for the exhibit Of pioneer
relics of the territorial days.
During the past week J. G. Mack.
member of the old territorial capt.
toll commission, visited the scene and
took photograph of the building
after it has been restored. 1t stands on
an uprising, bleak and cold, the wintry
winds drifting snow across the hill
sides, under conditions very similar
to those described in the old lepis
lative annuls and newspapers of Bel
mont in 1886.
Planned State University.
It was at Belmont that the first ter
ritorial legislature voted to change the
seat of the capitol to Madison and it
was at Belmont that plans were made
for the founding of state univer-
isity.
The session of the territorial legis-
lature, which met within the humble
rooms at Belmont, lasted forty-six
days and there were AZ laws placed
upon the statute books. During the
first session several new counties were
organized among them being Portage,
Green and Grant, the last being form
ed by dividing Iowa county. The
territorial Legislature consisted of
members representing the counties of
Brown, Milwaukee and Crawford and
what is now Wisconsin and counties of
Dubuque and Des Moines, in what is
now known as the state of Iowa.
Became Pig-Sty.
After the first session of the leeis-
lature the town of Belmont gradually
reverted to ruins. The old territorial
capitol became a barn and pig-sty
and finally an agitation was started to
have the territorial building restored
to its original position and preserved
as landmark. Gov Phillips appoint
ed Prof. J. D. Mack, NJ. P. Rindlaub.
Platteville, and Whitman as members
Of the Belmont capitol building com
mission. The old battlements on the
front of the old territorial capitol
were long since destroyed and had to
restored. The building had to be NOV
ed back to its original position and
there were many other repairs to be
made These have now been complet-
ed.

D. Mack in discussing Belmont. II
am glad that the people of Wisconsin
are taking an interest in their histor-

consin has been restored for future
generations. By love of history

Keeps Production
Up to Normal

The general decline in g-breeding
throughout the corn belt points to
greater future profits for Wisconsin
breeders. Wisconsin is the only hog
producing state of Importance that
has not cut down her pork production.
So says M. H. Scott of the college
of agriculture, who is aiding in a
more economical pork production"
campaign throughout the state.
Pork production has been seriously
cut throughout the United States said
Mr.. Scott, in a recent interview, and
the pendulum of hog production is
consequently swinging we'll to the side
of decreased production. 1t is est
mated that there are S1,500,000 less
hogs in the country than there were
last year. With the exception of dairy
cattle and mules all livestock produc-
ton has decreased, but the swine in
dustry shows the greatest slump.
"Only in Wisconsin has the number
of hogs and brood sows increased
said Mr.. Scott. "Iowa, normally a
heavy hog producing state, has de-
creased her production by Is per cent
since last year, but Wisconsin has in
creased hers by six per cent during
the same time. Other pork producing
states of Importance, such as Indiana
Illinois, Nebraska and Kansas have all
diminished their swine population.
Foreign Countries Buy Little.
Statistics show that the per capita
consumption of pork is S97 pounds in
the United States, which represents
as great a consumption as that of all
other meats combined. Due to the
present rates of exchange which make
our money so muck more valuable
than European moneys, foreign coun-
tries are buying very little pork at
present. Expectation has been cut ma
terially. If credit is extended to Eu-
rope or if rates of exchange become
more equalized, it is certain that Eu-
rope will make tremendous demand
on the swine industry of the United
States.
Outlook Good.
'The outlook for pork production in
Wisconsin is good. The corn belt is
raising less hogs than usual, and with
continued favorable conditions we
will be able to realize on this general
slump. With the coming Of spring it
will be our opportunity to give the
pigs the best of care. We are approach
ing the most important time in the
care and feeding of sows-just before,
during and just after narrowing"
Barley for Winter Feeding
In Wisconsin, barley has become
available for winter use in stock feed
ing and rations for hogs recommended
by the Experiment Station includes
barley as substitute for corn when
the feeder finds it desirable to use it
in place of corn. It's use depends on
the relative prices of corn and barley.
In many cases the use of barley has
aided in producing pork more econ
omically. Ten per cent more barley
must be used than corn to provide
for the same feeding results.

New York-Vincente Blasco Tbanez,

Page OF Very Exceptional Money Saving News for MOnda

E~ OR the past twelve years our Anniversary
Q Sale has been by far the most important
event of the year in Philadelphia Each
year we make June the busiest month between
the previous December and the November follow
ing. We shall do the same this year, of course,
because we allow nothing that can happen else
where to shake our purpose to make this annual
Sale surpass any and every kind of reduction
sale in this city.
In former years the futility of attempting to equal
or approach our Anniversary Sale in its benefits to the
public was apparently, recognized by other stores.
Therefore, 1t is indeed gratifying to record that THIS
is OUR GREATEST ANNIVERSARY SALE, despite
the fact that there have been reduction sales of
various kinds all about the city.
And the unmatchable advantages presented by this
Sale become more pronounced as the weeks 60 by.
COMPARISON of styles, qualities and prices in the
many lines of goods in the Sale leaves no room for
doubt as to where the best values are found.
