The Chamber of Commerce, the City

large civic organizations, comprising
over five thousand far-seeing and in

Two Other Vital Questions.
The milk question and the location

Full national representation for the
District of Columbia in both houses
Of Congress and in the electoral COL
lege was urged last week by COM
mittees of two Of the largest civic
organizations in Washington. BY
unanimous vote the board of directors
of the Washington Board of Trade
and the suffrage group Of the City
Club adopted resolutions advocating
the granting of such a franchise to
the District.
Both organizations expressed the
belief that a delegate to the House
as provided for in two bills now be-
ing considered. would not in any way
solve the problem of 4"voteless Wash
ington" and reiterated their belief
that full representation by con-
stitutional amendment was the only
satisfactory method of remedying
conditions. ---
Delegate Plan Opposed.
Paul Lesh, chairman of the suffrage
group of the City Club. asserted that
those who believed that a delegate
in the House would be a stepping

LIBERAL FEEDING FOR
HEAVY MILK YIELDS

you must feed your cows if you
want them to produce milk for profit, "
was the message left with the farm ers
of the town of Wilson by c. H. Imig,
of Junction City, who gave very fine
talk to al interested group of farmers
in the new community hall near Birch
wood last Saturday night. Thirty
farmers attended the meeting
1.-THE tendency of the COW is to revert
back to the original type that is, pro
duce only enough milk for it's young.
Man has stimulated the cow to her
present production and commonly eX-
poets to keep her there by proper feed
and care Treat your animals kindly
If you leave them outside in the Win

best. Comfortable quarters and good
care will pay the farmer.
Good cattle can not be- recommended
for Fall men. Some would be better off
to raise goats rather than cattle be

RUSK COUNTY EXCELS
MANY SECTIONS

Carl Kreklau, wife and family ar
rived in Ladysmith Saturday ending
an auto trip which started from their
home in New Hampton Iowa, and
covered portions of the states Of ILL
nois. Indiana. Ohio, Pennsylvania
MARYLAND. New York and Michigan
They intended to put in the summer
in New York state. but Carl said he
cot disguised with the country and
drove here where he likes it better.
Mr.. Kreklau says this country is
better off than the other states and the
first silver dollars he got III change
were in Wisconsin. Frost has done
much damage to fruit in the east, and
all the western states have suffered
from frost.
He says that the only good land he
saw in ten days tMvel through the
much-advertised land of New York
was valued at $500 to $1,000 per acre
and was not for sale. This land was
along lakes and much of it was in
vineyards.
He saw farmers blowing on side
hills almost straight up and down, and
wondered how they managed to stay
up there.
Stones were thick on a large part Of
the land Notwithstanding the fact that
huge stone fences and foundations for
buildings had been built from them.
The buildings were 100 years old and
he wouldn't take any of the farms
there that were for sale. as a gift.
Mr. Kreklau says that when they
moved here few years ago that his
wife did not like it here but now, af
ter their trip Mrs. Kreklau acknowl.
edges that Rusk county is a fine cOun-
try and has wonderful possibilities,
as a grass and dairy country. Mr..
Kreklau says it beats the hills and
hollOws of the east and has Iowa
beaten badly as a place to live and
prosper

LADYSM|TH is GOOD MAR
KET PLACE SAYS FARMER
HARD WORK PUTS
FARMER IN GOOD SHAPE

Antoine Waller drove a cheap team
to Ben French's logging camps two
years ago last winter with load of
supplies and took job of skidding
logs. He ran in debt for the team and
earned money enough to pay for them
and keep his family in Ladysmith all
winter.
Frank Burgess. who had an interest
in the job and was the boss. told Mr..
Mr.. Waller he could do Il big business
logging. as Mr.. Waller was one of the
best wOrkmen he had ever hired.
Mr. French had piece of wild land
south of the Sam Johnson farm that
he wanted cleared and he hired Mr..
Waller to work for him. He soon saw
that Mr. Waller could make good on
farm and Mr.. Waller decided that
he would like TO own his own farm, so
| Mr.. French sold him 40 acres on time
and he built a house on it that fall.
| He lived i'm house he rented l 70 miles
from the land until his house was
built. He built a small barn and pur-
chased COW. He got a good garden
planted the first year and brushed and
| logged some land. Now he has some
lumber on the place that he will use
for new buildings He now has l.
acres under the pillow that he has plant
ed to peas. oats. potatoes, corn and
millet. He rents nine acres of land
that he has SOwed to peas. which makes
him 10 acres of that crop. AS he was
short on hay land he rented 30 acres
of tame hay that will give him plenty
of feed.
He now has II head of cattle, team
and three SOWS. One SOW gave birth tt
II pigs and the other two will farrOW
later. He sells these pigs at $500 each
at weaving time The three sows cost
him $500 each a year ago
Last fall Mr. Waller bought another
SO-acre tract of land adjoining the for
ty. Nh French sold this eighty to him
and stands back of him on the whole
| proposition. We do not recommend
any man coming here to start on a
new farm with nothing, but there are
many exceptions where a man like Mr..
Waller, who is a good worker and a
good manager. has become independ-
ent here when he had to start with
nothing. If his crops turn out good
this fall Mr.. Waller can easily pay his
| interest, taxes and expenses, and put
by a goodly sum for improvements.

GOOD ATTENDANCE
AT DYNAMITE SCHOOLS

A. j. McAdams. of the Du POnt
company, has been in Ladysmith the
past few days for dynamite schools
scheduled by the county agent. The
idea of these schools was not to show
the farmers how to use dynamite, but
rather to have each farmer do the ac-
tual work, so that he would be i'll a
better position to do the work alone.
on his own place.
The schools were held at Big Falls,
in West Grant. and at Ringers Cor
ners. There was good attendance
at each of these schools and the farm
ers feel that the schools were well
worth while.

Who Do Not Trade Here Are

Merchants Are Selling Goods
Worth the Money

J. \. Stenhilber who lives five
miles southwest of Ladysmith ON the
old Bruce road, brought Is dozen
lunches of onions to this city Tues
day and had no trouble in disposing
of them at cents per bunch.
Mr. Steinhilber says he used to sell
them in Indiana for 21a cents per
bunch He says Ladysmith is Il good
place to sell any farm produce and
the prices are good. He also says that
Ladysmith is good place to buy
goods, and that the farmer who does
not trade here is fOoling himself, as
our merchants are selling goods AS
cheaply as they can be sold ut fair
profit
A thriving city is one of the big
gest assets any farmer can have close
to his farm as it makes a good market
for his products and increases the value
! Of his land.

| father was starting on farm In IN

lose his place when the older boys

by putting their money in the place
while the father and younger sons

acre. There was no grass there "a
start with as there is here which is a
| big help for our new settlers.
He says all other countries when
new had their problems and the new
settlers here have more opportunities
than those who settled in other states
Mr.. Steinhilber paid this paper a
compliment when he said that his
| brother came out to help him this
spring and insisted on blowing new
| land. He let him pillow some while he
brushed some other land and then
plOwed the cradle knobs down and
| leveled and made a seed bed with a
spring tooth harrow. The brother be-
| came convert to that method and
| quit blowing new land. He told his

method of developing new land down
pat and he always read it and says
it is OF great value to him and other
men who come here. and who do not
understand just how to take hold of

| We appreciate this endorsement, and
wish to assure our farmer friends that
we are doing all we can to help them
make Rusk county pleasant and
