MARSHFIELD FAIR
INFORMATION

Officers and members of local
Breed Clubs, Wood County:
Dear Friends.
Prospects for a wonderful livestock
show at the Central Wisconsin State
Fair to be held at Marshfield from
September to 8, 1921, are of the
best. Individual breeders are plan
ming on showing their good cattle
and many of the local breed clubs
are selecting animals that will repre-
sent their community in the special
Community Herd Glasses. The several
testing associations are more than
active in preparing for the liberal
prizes offered for yearly record cows,
and also for three day test cows, test
to be made on the grounds during the
Fair.
There are ten local .Holstein clubs
and four local Guernsey clubs in
Wood County. Each of these Clubs
should see that it is represented at
the Fair by the best Community Herd
that can be assembled. This herd
should consist of ten animals from at
least three different farms and not
more than four animals from any
one farm. Here is the lineup:
One Aged Sire, One Junior Sire
(under 2 yrs.} One Aged Cow, One 8
yr. old cow, 2 Females yrs. old, 2
Females 1 yr. old, 2 Female Calves.
The prizes are S25-s15-s10. But
think more of boosting your breed,
your community and your County,
than of the money. You can do all
the advertising that you care to do.
Each breed will be judged by itself.
And the Calf Club members, sew
enty of them in the County, we want
them to be at the Fair with their

night and robbed the place of mer-
chandise valued between $500 and
and $400 The robbery was discovered
when the store was opened for bust
ness in the morning, but no trace

An unsuccessful attempt was made
to open the safe, which contained a
considerable amount Of money.
Mr.. Levin said that he had no idea
just when the robbery occurred. When
he arrived at the store in the morn
ing, he found it completely ransacked
and a considerable amount of mer-
chandise gone, including nine pairs
Of shoes, number of sweaters, hats
and other articles of apparel.

does not occur to many of US that
unquestionably a considerable number
of cases of tuberculosis can be traced
to the direct infection of foul mouths,
due to bad teeth
DR.. Ryan's remarkable findings, SO
graphically set forth in Teeth and
Health have convinced medical au-

how almost every germ of general

SALMON

Government works on this King OF
Fish show some very interesting
points about which some Of us, many
of us in fact, may not be informed.
Both the Federal and State govern
ments maintain departments for the
propagation of fish, and among the
various kinds of fish the salmon, with
out doubt is one of, if not the most
important.
But, what are the habits of the
salmon? How do they live? Where do
the pass their lives?
A salmon Matched in a certain river
is always a salmon from that river,
though it only matches and dies there
so it is with all other salmon from
all other rivers.
Eggs may be transplanted from one
river to another, but not the fish.
A salmon's life is four or five years.
The little Jack salmon are just as
old as the big chinook. That is the
reason the fisheries always select the
eggs from the big ones, as like pro-
duces like and kind produces kind.
The first few months of life are
spent in fresh water but as the little
fish grows it finds its way down
stream past the cannibals of its own
race, and if successful, reaches the
Ocean where it reaches maturity in
the early spring usually of the fourth
year, it finds its way back to the
mouth of the river from which it
came and gradually works its way up
stream to the shallow waters at its
source, where the female deposits
her eggs and the life fluid also de-
posted in the water makes them
fertile-the beginning of another gen
Grafton. This last sact of the salmon
is called spawning. Within a short
time both male and female die and
become food for the ever increasing
number of scavenger fish all large

calves. There are liberal prizes for
these calves-Senior and Junior heif-
ers, and also a class for bull calves.
Here, too, each breed will be judged
separately There are also Commun-
ity Calf Club Prizes. Each commu-
nifty to compete for these prizes will
be represented by the calves of all
breeds from its district.
The time is limited-but you still
have time to round up the herds and
calves. See that your community is
represented. Work with the idea that
your community can round up the
best herd in the state. You have to
be there with enthusiasm to make a
showing I am enclosing return
cards in the letters to the officers and
directors of the clubs to learn def
nitely what the plans of each Club
are. Talk it up in your locality to-
day-see that you have a community
herd at the Fair-and don't forget
to help the boys and girls get there
with their calves.
Yours truly,
R. A. Peterson, Co. Agent

rivers contain.
When going down stream IN the
first few months of its life of course
the young salmon eats and it con-
tinues to eat while it inhabits the
salt waters of the various oceans,
but when it returns to the fresh
waters of its birth, its feeding ends
and its throat closes up. The longer
a fish is enroute to the spawning
grounds the poorer it becomes.
Many fishermen say that this part
of the story is not correct because
they catch these great fish with their
fish hook caught in their mouths.
