RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH.
Spent s1,2oo,0oo for Relief Of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions Of acute
distress in five famine stricken prov
inces Of Northern China, where mil
lions of persons were affe cted by an
unprecedented shortage of food, the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than $1,20O,OOO,
100000 Of which was contributed d.
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups In
terested in the welfare of China.
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible it is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross is
asking continued support by the Amer
lean people by universal renewal of
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November IL to "a.
The method of relief employed by
the American Red Cross in it's opera
lions in China was particularly effec-
tive, for In addition to saving hundreds
of thousands Of lives it provided China
with more than 900 miles of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-
vent a recurrence of famine. At one
time the Red Cross employed $4,000
Chinese workmen, paying them in food
for themselves and dependents, this
food being brought in from Manchuria
and elsewhere.

Red Cross Plans
100000 Effort
To Save Children

Medical care and clothing for thou
sands of children in Central and East
ern Europe are outlined as the activ-
tiles of the American Red Cross In
Europe for the current year, says a
statement on the eve of the Annual
Roll Call of the organization. These
activities, supplemental to the feeding
operations Of the European Relief
Council of which Herbert Hoover is
chairman, are designed to provide the
most adequate and balanced relief
within the resources of private phi
lanthropy.
Through the establishment of child
welfare stations in the centers of pop
ulation of those countries where ade-
quate medical care is not now obtain
able, the American Red Cross plans
to provide the medical assistance need
ed to restore these children to a nor
mally healthy life. The sum of &c.
100000 has been made available for
this work.

SILVER FOX INDUSTRY
SHOWS Extensive GAIN
Close To Five Thousand of the
Animals Being Bred in Cap
tivity-Dryz Ranch in
Villas County

The following article concerning
er-black foxes, taken from the An
tigo Journal, will be of interest to
some of our readers as the Dryz fox
farm is located on the main road to
Phelps and this year two others are
starting in that vicinity. The Dryz
place is heavily visited by tourists
and is decidedly novel attraction.
The proprietor has built a fine resi-
dence for the use of himself and fam
lily and has built pens for about fifty
pairs of foxes and next year expects
to be fully launched in the business.
Approximately 4,849 silver-black
foxes are beng bred in captivity in the
United States, according to reports to
the Bureau of Biological Survey of
the United States department of ag-
riculture, from 215 fox ranches, rap
resenting value in animals and
equipment estimated at $4,279,8 $50.
All reports have not yet been re-
ceived and conservative estimates
place the number of silver-black foxes
in this country at from 5000 to 5000
Some ranchmen place the number as
high as 10000
Statistics on the fox-ranching bust
less being gathered by the bureau
Indicate that fox raising in the Uni
Ted States, especially in the northern
tier Of states is rapidly becoming an
important industry. The information
sought has chiefly to do with the To-
cation and number of ranches, num-
Der of foxes and money invested.
Prince Edward Island, Canada, is
regarded as the center of the indus
try. Many foxes are now bred in cap
tivity in a number of states, including
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts. New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa, Montana,
Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Colorado,
California and Alaska.
It is probable that there are other
states in which fox farming is carried
on, as the records of the bureau are
not yet complete, In addition to
raising silves--black foxes some ranch
ers keep red and cross foxes, skunks,
martens and muskrats.
The permits issued by the depart
ment of agriculture for the importa-
ton of foxes into the United States
from Canada for the year 1920 totaled
SO5, as compared with 335 in 1919
The number of silver-black foxes in
Canada in 1919 is given in a report
of the Dominion bureau of statistics
as 6,43S, with animals valued at$3,-
O1S,115, not including equipment.
There were 1000 pelts sold at total
valuation of $482,364.

WISCONSIN BARBER Law

The Wisconsin barber law requires
that copy of the sanitary rules gov
erning barber shops be posted in ev-
cry shop so customers can read them.
Patrons are requested to read these
rules and report to the Barber Divi
sion, State Board of Health, Madi
son, Wis, if they are violated.
Rule No. requires that when a
towel has been used on customer
it must be discarded until it has been
thoroughly relaundered. A towel
should be boiled at least ten minutes
to kill the germs Towels must not
be left on the work stand or wash
bowl after the customer gets out of
the chair.
The practice Of using towels on
more than one patron is responsible
for the spread of certain loathsome
diseases and BARRIERS itch. If the
face is inf1amed or broken out, or
contains pus, the same towel used on
a second person without relaunder-
ing, is very liable to convey disease.
Rule No. 10 prohibits the use of a
styptic pencil to stop the flow Of
blood. Lump alum is also forbidden
and the barber must use a powder or a
styptic in liquid form. Styptic pencils
cannot be sterilized and the blood Of
d svanrcc,y1 q II sVzgt1, tan
blea disease is highly contagious and
if blood from such person is allowed
to dry on a styptic pencil and this
pencil used on another person, the
disease may be easily transmitted
The State Board of Health requests
your cooperation in enforcing the
law and safeguarding the health Of
the public.

mobile plates for 1922 In announ-

Elmer S. Hall, secretary of state,

unfavorable conditions.
Prisoners at the state prison at
Waupun make all auto license plates
for the state said Mr.. Hail. due
to the fact that we must have such a
large number on hand at the begin
mig Of each year, it is necessary that
we make an early selection of colors
that the work may be started immed-
lately.
More than thirty plates were sub
mitted by the prison officials from
which were chosen the colors for next
year. After placing all on the wall
of the office, elimination was made on
a competitive basis for legibility and
artistic harmony of colors.

V. KREFL COMPANY
STARTS ITS BUILDING
Ground Broken for New $4,000
Structure To Be Ready For
Manufacturing Co. First
of the New Year

Work on the foundation for the fac
tory building of the v. Kref Manufac-
turing Company started this week on
the ground purchased last week lying
south of the c. & N. w. depot and
fronting the Eagle Forge on the coun-
ty road 1t will be one story struc-
ture 6Ox75 feet, built of brick and tile.
The Manitowoc contractor who has
the job expects to have it completed
and ready for use within sixty days.
1t will represent an outlay of about
$1,000, and an equal amount is in
machinery already here.
This is the company which recently
moved here from Two Rivers where
it had been engaged in the manufac-
ture of automobile accessories, but
wanting to enlarge their plant and
output decided that Eagle River would
in many ways be desirable point to
locate permanently.
The company is incorporated for $751;
10000, and the business men of Eagle
River andpeople of the vicinity have
subscribed about half of that amount,
realizing that to secure the location OF
another labor employing establishment
which will from the first employ not
less than thirty men daily, is good
thing to encourage even to the extent
of some sacrifice The plant will be
equipped with a view to doing a much
larger business in the near future and
Judging from the previous success of
most concerns engaged in any line OF
the automobile business, their expecta
tions of greatly increasing the volume
of business is fully justified.
Shock absorbers, bumpers, ETC., are
to be manufactured and are adjusta-
BILE to the majority of cars. Mr.
Kref, the president, of the company
is also the inventor of the shock alb
sorber and is now at work on other
specialties for cars and when
perfected are expected to find ready
ready sale among car users.
With the great number of cars in
use and the number getting larger
every year, it would seem that the
business Of manufacturing and sup
plying extras is bound to be good
for many years to come.
The officers and directors of the
company would like to see the I'M
sold stock taken by local people as
much as possible, and thereby in
crease the spirit of cooperation be-
yond what it would be if held by
strangers whose only interest would
be Of financial nature. Everyone
who can should be willing to help a
concern which must help the town in
providing work for larger popula-
ton which benefits everyone.
