Want TO Secure Generator.

AT a meeting of the Light &
Water Commission and citizens
last Tuesday night, the question
of securing a loan in some man
ner in order to purchase a new
generator for the new water
wheel at the power plant, was
gone into, but not settled at that
meeting. 1t is said that another
meeting will be called soon to de-
finitely determine what can be
done. The need of more power
and that at once now confronts
the commission and consumers.
Without another generator the
present wheel which was install
ed early in the summer, Will be
of no use and will have to remain
idle. unless put in place of the
old wheel. now said to have been
repaired.

WATCH FOR VIOLATORS
Warning Being Sent Out by
Commission Relative to
Fish and Game Violations.

According TO a statement just
made by w. +. Barber of the
Conservation Commission, over
200 new wardens have been added
to the regular force of 50 full
time wardens now in the employ
of the state.
OF these two hundred special
wardens Oneida and Villas coun-
ties furnish most of them--sports-
men who have volunteered their
services to the state for the pro-
lection of game and fish without
any compensation whatever. These
citizens are to be eulogized for
their cooperation with the state
in protecting its wild life, which
as we all know is being rapidly
depleted by the fish and game
hog. These latter have no regard
for any law, and besides working
for their destruction, never give
any assistance in its preservation.
It is the aim of the special war
dens to assist the regular men
in securing convictions and see
that the laws are more fully obey
ed.
I'VE now have So full time war
dens," says Commissioner w. h.
Barber of the Conservation Com
mission "and in addition we have
little over 200 special wardens.
1t doesn't pay to take a chance
these days"
with the season opened this
year for a few days for the birds,
we are keeping a strict eye on the
woods. The birds are more plent-
iful than any time before and
hunters must eonfine their activ-
tiles to the set dates and then
keep within the specified bag
limits"

C-S CLUBS BARBEoOE
Fair Grounds All Day Satur-
day-Big Barbecue and a
Big Time Generally.

The second annual meet of the
.C-S Club, which is known as their
Harvest Picnic and Barbecue, will
hold all day Saturday of this
week at the fair grounds Don't
confuse this with something that
is of no interest to you and your
family.
A year ago there was formed
of Villas county men and women
a club known as the C-S Club; its
purpose being the advancement
socially and agriculturally of
every farmer and every farmers
wife and daughter. That it has
prospered is evidenced by the in
creased membership which now
totals several hundred.
The second annual picnic and
barbecue promises to be a big
event. Already there has been
promised two prime beeves and
four yearling sheep for the bar
becue and the picnic. The
roasting of these animals will be
done under the supervision of ex-
perts. Add this with the other
material for lunch making, it is
an assurance that no person will
go hungry during the day.
There will be booths where one
may hobnob with his or her
neighbor in trying out a winning
streak; there will be games of
all kinds for the younger folks
fifteen races in all. Wheelbarrow
races, sack races, boot races, B
legged races, cracker eating con-
test, flag race, egg race, potato
race, bean race, leap-frog race and
tug-o-war.
Hon. Robt. NJ. LaFollette will
be the principal speaker of the
day. Well worth coming to hear
him.
At the close of the festivities
a dance beginning at shutdown
and lasting until the early morn,
will be staged for those who love
that pastime. This will be held
in the opera house. The proceeds
of this dance will GO toward the
support of q new rest room.
AS an added incentive, many
prizes will be given. Among
them are two that should prove
winners: Grand prize will be Civ
en- the farmer with the largest
family, and one to the twins COM
ing the longest distance.
Come early Saturday morning
and spend the entire day with
your neighbors.

There's a little brown cot the shore of a lake
Where the dawn is S fair tbs a Joy to awake;
Where ones life along like untroubled dream
Or boat drifting with the flow of stream.
Where the days ushered in by the song of a bird
Or chorus of songsters-the sweetest eer heard;
Where each happy day ending, always the best
From the mornings first beam til the suns in the West
Where all troubles and trials left far away
In the citys dull streets, in offices grey;
Where each days full of JOY and each night full of
Oh little brown cot, who would not love you best?
But the has passed and the birches are gold,
The naples respondent with beauty untold;
And the need to return to the Land of Unrest
Calls all sadly back from this Home of the Best.
So, farewell little cot, standing lonely and cold
In the midst of Fall glories of scarlet and gold
You'll not be fOrgotten-our hearts always yearn
For dear little Summer home TIL return.

500 and Costs.

L. II. Hahn of RipOn, who a
week ago was caught with moon
shine in his possession in one of
the hotels in Eagle River, plead
guilty before Judge A. H. Reid
in circuit court last week, and
was asked to pay a fine of 500,
with costs added. Rather costly
moonshine, but then, seems as
though some fellows must have
some sort of a kick from white
mule, even though it is of poor
quality.

To best illustrate the magni-

Kornreich, salesman for the
Standard Paper Company of Mil
waukee, who made occasion to
visit the fair. He said: Il have
seen the state fair with its sew
eral big PUMPKINS and squashes,
but not anywhere in uniformity
and numbers as at this little
county exhibit. Your corn is alb
solutely wonderful and one won
ders at its being grown in this
northern section. ! also want to
say TO you, that you have the
right kind of a fair-no horse
races and cheap side attractions.
Keep away from such and your
fair will be among the top-notch-
ers. People are democratic here,
something you fail to see at many
other fairs. and IT, is all brought
about by your showing the people
Just enough TO keep their atten-
ton without firing them. It's

For two seasons, Adams resort
on Big Twin has furnished a de-
cided attraction and novelty in
the way of freshly caught musk
ellunge. Last year they exhibit
ed one weighing forty pounds;
this fair they had two near the
twenty pound mark, just caught
the day previous. Seems as
though VIM. Adams has the real
know-how and when 20 ge. 'em

did idea and an attraction of
worth.
The airplane, as one of the
chief attractions, certainly kept
the attention of the crowd, espec-
tally during the drop from the
clouds in a parachute. This vas
done both days and was a good
attraction. Besides this, one
could spend his or her money at
the booths where skill counted
over the ingenuity of the fellow
who had something TO sell. Every
thing was clean and the fair of
ficials most assuredly made
good" Both days baseball fans
were permitted to witness two
splendid exhibitions of ball be-
tween Rhinelander and Eagle

The following pome" was

of the average attendant to the
two days of bully good fair IN

STAY ON
THE JOB

In every community, and the COM
munity around Winnemucca is no ex-
ception, there are dozens of farmers
who are either getting ready to quit
farming entirely or wishing they
could. The reason Is the extremely
low price of farm products and the
high cost Of implements and fertilizer,
as we'll as clothing, etc. In every pc
riod of distress there are always a
lot of summer soldiers" who give up
at the first frost And 1t is they who
help to improve conditions for the
man who sticks on the job. There
are sure to be hard times In any bust
ness, and agriculture is no exception.
But the real business man, the real
farmer, is the one who both looks
ahead and prepares ahead. He is the
one whom we depend upon to prevent
a calamity, and there are still many
of his kind left So we may safely
predict that present conditions will
not last long. Brighter days are just
ahead. The man who sticks to the
job now is the man who will cash in
when the Improvement comes.
