C. o. Trotter and Henry Gerberding
spent few days camping and picking
berries at Flambeau last week At
last we have figured out why Art
Nickoley didn't play ball last Sunday
He went to pick berries at Flambeau
and wasn't very careful how he walked
md got scratched so he had to sit
around to get them healed up.
The price of cheese is up some
where near where it ought to be. Twin
.heese brought 19c pound last week.
The chepSe-maker. with the cO-0pera-
| ton of the Marshall Dairymen's AsSo-
citation directors is planning on sending
box of cheese to be displayed at the
state fair. This will be a boost for
greater consumption Of cheese and
also a good boost for Rusk county.
Some game we saw at Conrath last
Sunday All the Conrath residents left
town so as not to hear the score too
;Oon. The Flambeau ball team came
Conrath to give them another TRIM
ming. They gave them that but did
not score as we'll as they did the Sun
day before. Both sides played good
and rotten. and the score was Is to
in favor of Flambeau. Louis Horn. the

the best ground ball catcher III the
diamond. His skill was developed by
chasing gophers in Spooner's corn
field during his spare time.
Matt Fasbinder returned from
KenOsha last Saturday evening. iie
informed us that the crops III that

corn is drying up and some OF the

crop is very poor and new spuds are
selling for $500 a bUshel IN the CRY
of Kenosha. He also informed Us or
the death of AIRS. John R3usch, who
died at one of the Kenqsha h9Spltais,
after an operation for gall stones ana
the removal OF tumOr or the llVer.
The sympathy Of the community is eX-
tended to the bereayed husband:
The Conrath cheese factory closed
IFS doors last week, Monday, on ac-
count of insufficient milk to make ops
Grating expenses. 1t seems that some
of the farmers do not realize thar they
must stay by it through good and bad
hut give up when the worst Is past,
It is quite true that the price OF cheese
was very poor during the summer
months, but now when the price came
up they could make up what they iost
before. If farmers don't hang TO-
gether and support their cooperative
associations they will hang seperate-
" and let the outsiders who buy thelr
products get fat and rich from their
toll
