PASSING On Of
MISS LUCY
WOODWORTH

In the passing on of Miss Lucy
Woodworth who died Monday in an
Iowa City Hospital of dropsy, we lose
an old friend and long time associate,
who was formerly employed in this
office as typist, We can say for her
that she was a remarkable woman,
amiable, jolly, good neighbor, 10y
al to her friends. She leaves to mourn
two brothers, Gus Woodworth of
Chicago, and F. S. Woodworth of
Pittsville, with whom she lived and
kept a home for him; and one sister,
we believe who lives in North Dakota.
She was born, raised ana educated in
Grand Rapids. Lived here until her
parents died, then went to Pittsville
to live and made home for her bro
ther Frank.
While resident of Grand Rapids
she was we'll known and popular a
mong the young folks. She was a
member of the Order of Eastern Star
in which order she held many offices
of trust. She loved this orders teach
ings and took pleasure in exemplify-
ing the work.
During the past three years she has
been in poer health and sought health
in various sanitariums and hospitals
but all in vain she gradually failed
until the end came on Monday, No
vember s, 1920.
Her remains arrived here Wednes-
day morning on the c. M. & st. Paul
from Iowa City, accompanied by her
brother Frank who had gone to her
bedside, summoned by telegram of
her serious illness. The funeral SER
vice took place Wednesday afternoon
at the Masonic Temple in charge of
the Order of Eastern Star of which
she was devoted member. The
floral offerings were beautiful and a
large number of her old time friends
paid their respects to one whom they
had learned to love- The ritual ser
vice Of the order was rendered at the
grave and burial took place at Forest
Hill cemetery. She will be kindly re-
membered for her many virtues.

The children in a certain home we
might mention seldom get lonesome.
They have little desire for the aban-
don of the street, which is so dear to
most children Of their age.
But there is a reason.
In their hours of relaxation the
parents forget the years that have
flown and call up the days of their
awn childhood
They enter into sports with their
children, and take an interest in those
things which please the little ones
most.
They are comrades as well as par
ents, and because they are such the
child does not find it necessary to
drift away from home in search of
enjoyment.
This training policy of the parents
has its beneficial results in two ways.
Through constant intimate contact
their own superior knowledge is grad
ually impaired to the children each
day in manner a child can readily un
derstand.
And it keeps the freshness of youth
in their own mature hearts.
For, after all, people are only as old
as they feel.

LOCATING new
RESCUE HOME:

1--WE have place for boys at Green
Bay" said Judge A. c. Backus of Mil
waukee in an address at a Salvation
Army campaign meeting for the 1920
Home Service Program" and we have
a home for girls under 16, but when
the girl of II, 18, 10, 20, or Fl comes
before me or before one of my coll
leagues, the state of Wisconsin asks
us to send her to the penitentiary
with the hardened criminal.
II congratulate you men and wo-
men of The Salvation Army for your
foresight in wishing to provide a
place by this campaign for sheltering
girlhood and making for better wo-
manhood"
81 shall rejoice when | shall have
an opportunity to choose between the
state peniten5iary and you when a
girl comes before me-"
At another similar meeting Presi-
dent Ellen C. Sabin of Milwaukee
Downer college for women said:
II have always had an intense in
terest in The Salvation Army. 1t
does wonderfully practical work.
The Rescue Home for which The Sal
walton Army is seeking subscriptions
in it's 1920 campaign will have the
great benefit of general experience
since it will be the 9th institution
of the kind established by this organi-
zation; and it will have the invalu-
able benefit of many years of special

MULBERGER
REFERENDUM

The Wisconsin Anti-Saloon League
825 Goldsmith Building, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, today issued the following
statement:
The overwhelming vote of Wisconsin
in favor of the Mulberger law, Chap
ter 556 of the Laws of 1918, after the
decision of the U. s. Supreme Court
had made it read that one-half of one
per cent of alcohol by volume made a
beverage Intoxicating, is a clear in
struction to our senators and repre-
sentatives to unphsld the Volstead
Act and an indication that they want
an effective state enforcement code
in harmony with the Volstead Act
The republican platform pledges
the amendment of the Mulberger law
to make it as drastic and effective as
the federal law, and on the face of
legislative returns the drys have a
bare majority in each house of the
state legislature. If the members e.
lect stand by their prediction declar-
ations, as we are confident they will,
the law will be so amended as to bring
state courts and state officers more
into use, giving added enforcement
machinery and keeping liquor fines
within the state.
Supt. R. P Hutton has gone for a
short rest. When he returns a con-
ference of the legislative committee
of the Anti-Saloon League and the
W. c. T. u, to which will be invited
leaders of the Federation of Women's s
Clubs, district attorneys, civic bodies
and others, will be called for the pur-
pose of outlining the general outline
of the revisions to be suggested to the
legislature and appointing a sub
committee to draft the proposed bill
The League regards the reelection
of Senator |. L. Lenroot as of first
Importance nationally to the cause of
prohibition.
Congressman elect A. P. Nelson,
James A. Frear, E. E. Browne, and ].
D. Beck have all declared for main
tanning the Volstead definition, and
while ]. M. Nelson, and II. A Cooper
refused to make any declaration, both

PICKUP

Kellogg Bros. Lumber Company in
their monthly Kelloggs Kurio make
splendid suggestions to the farmers
when they suggest Saturday, Novem-
Der 18th as "Pick-Up Day" Read
what they have to offer:
Have you bought any machinery
during the last year? If so, you real
ize something of the present prices of
all kinds of machinery, tools, etc
November is almost here. We can
expect stormy weather with snow and
sleet in short time
1t is suggested that farmers take 8
day off from their other work and
devote ak the time to gathering up
farm machinery, tools, etc, and put
them away for the winter.
A little grease and oil now to pre-
vent rust will save you lot of time
next spring.
After you have your material all
gathered up and put away, take a
of what you have, putting the price
on everything AS a basis on which
to work, use the price now charged
for machinery. Then price it at what
second hand machinery is sold at
auctions
Include in this inventory such items
as pitchforks, hoes, hammers, saws
and tools of all sorts and description
When you get this inventory you will
be surprised how much money is re-
presented.
Every machine should be placed in
the implement shed as soon as the field
work is finished. They are too expen
slve to leave outdoors.
Suppose you make Saturday, No
vember 13, "Pick-Up Day" The boys
and girls will be home from school t.
help you. You will find it a day we'll
spent.

FEDERAL
FARM SCHOOLS
NOW OPEN

Two weeks brim full Of the most
interesting and beneficial work is
planned for the farmers and farmers
boys of the various communities of
Wood County.
Many new and important phases of
the work has been developed to apply
more locally to existing conditions.
Practical use of lime and fertilizers
on various types of soil, as demon
strated through a number of tests
conducted in the county this year.
Work with the different kinds of
farm animals, the breeds Of each best
adapted to Wood County, feeding
problems, and diseases. Especial at
tention will be paid to our old foes,
tuberculosis, Contagious Abortion
Hemorrhagic Septicaemia, and Hog
Cholera. 1t may surprise many to
learn that tuberculosis among Wood
County Poultry is quite common. This
is very. serious matter and every
one raising poultry should take an ac-
tive interest in the situation.
The subject of pure-bred seed will
be thoroughly discussed, and new i
IDEAS concerning crop rotation meth
DDS and the building up of the soil will
be dealt with. Possibilities Of the
Soy bean in Wood county will be es-
pecially interesting to farmers on the
lighter soils. Proper poultry housing.
culling the flock, and other interesting
phases Of the poultry question will be
developed. Comparative value of
home grown feeds, balancing rations.
and new ideas on filing the silo and
silage will be taken up.
Wood County orchard problems.
planting, pruning, and spraying. The
need for orchard care and improve
ment made itself quite evident this
year with about 95 per cent of the or
chards badly infected with Fire
Blight, which, is not properly handled
will grow worse from year to year.
The fact that the farmer must also
be a business man is being very for
cibly brought to light by our present
day condition. Cooperative buying
and selling, farm accounting, and far
mers' advertising will all receive due
consideration. Other interesting sub
jects which space will not permit men
tioning will also be available.
These schools run for period of
two weeks in each community where
they are held. They open at $50 a.
M. and close at $3.50 p. m., thus al
lowing time in the morning and in the
evening for the home work. They
run every day except Saturday. Any
one young. or old who is interested in
Agriculture and who is not already
in some Public School is urged to at
tend. The school is free to all,
The work is under the personal su-
pervision of E. H. Perkins, Federal
Agricultural Agent and may be reach
ed through the Wood County Agricul-
tural School, Wisconsin Rapids, Wis
consin Other men who will aid in
making the course memorable one
are R. A. Peterson, County Agricul-
tural Agent who will handle the sub
ject of "The Farmer as a Business
Man." S. G. Corey Principal of the
Wood County Agricultural School will
handle the poultry work. F. L. Mus
bach, Superintendent of the Marsh
field Branch Experiment Station, will
give some first hand work on the sub
ject, "Wood County Soils"

NOT WORKING BUT TIRED OUT

When one feels always tired with
out working, or suffers from back
ache, lumbago, rheumatic pains, sore
muscles or stiff joints it is not always
easy to locate the source of trouble
but very frequently it can be traced
to overworked, weakened or diseased
kidneys. Foley Kidney Pills. relieve.

mentioned in the budget, S125,0o0, is
not for the structure, but also for e.

the state to show where it should be
placed to best give its service.

LIBRARY NOTES
1856 Volumes Drawn From Branch
Library During First Three
Weeks.

Circulation figures for the first
week the branch library was open
show that twice as many books We're
drawn in that week as the week pre-
ceding. For the month ending Oc-
tober 31st, at which time the branch
had been open three weeks. the cir
culation was 1865 This makes the
total circulation for the month 1907
an, increase of 1892 volumes or more
than 80 per cent over October 1919.
Statistics show that the opening of a
Branch does not lower circulation at
the Main Library Many new bor-
roWers have registered, among them
some who claim they had never known
there was library in the city.
Opening Hours.
In order to accommodate the chill
dren who are dismissed from school
at $3.50 the branch is being opened
at $3.50 p. N. instead of at 4. This
makes opening hours $3.50 to and 7
to 9 p. m., from Monday to Friday
inclusive and 1870 to 92p. m. on Satur-
days. This change in opening hours
helps take care Of the after school
rush and also gives opportunity to
serve better the adults who come in.
So far the children have been the best
patrons.
Polish Books.
The branch has a good collection Of
adult books as well as children's. a
mCng these is a set Of Polish books
recently borrowed from the Travelling
Library Department. at Madison. The
books are changed frequently and sew
eral borrowers have stated that be-
cause Of this and the fact that these
books are all live up to date books it
is easier to make selection here than
at the Main Library. Any registered
borrower of the Library may take
books at either place and retucn them
at either place to suit his or her con-
vcnience. If you do not care for
books why not come in and cead the
latest magazines and newspapers? )?
There is not so complete a list here
as at the main library but you will
find the local daily, Milwaukee Jour
nal, and Stars and Stripes; also mag
azines.
To Commemorate the Tercentary of
the Landing of the Pilgrims
in 1920.
All over the country preparations
are being made to celebrate the 300th
anniversary of the landing of the Pill
grims. Every magazine and newspa-
per is devOting some space to history
and anecdotes of the Pilgrims and
Puritans What can we do? The L.
brary would like to reproduce COL
onial kitchen, but to do this it must
depend upon the interest and hep Of
every citizen of Wisconsin Rapids
and vicinity. Mr.. Sprise of the Man
ual Training School has promised
fire place; the D. A. R. will do all
they can to support the movement.
But still we lack several things needed
