REVIVAL OF FAMOUS
WAR BONNET ROUNDUP

Great interest has been aroused in
the Intermountain Country over the
prospects Of revival of the famous
War Bonnet Roundup, which will
~be staged in Idaho Falls September
29th-30 th-October LIST, under the
name of the Idaho Falls Roundup.
The business interests of the entire
community are encouraging the
movement and the stage is set for q
three days celebration that will equal
if not eclipse, anything of the kind
ever held west of the Rocky Mount
aims. The best talent in the west
has been secured including cham
pion bronco busters, ropers, riders
steer wfestlers and cowgirls by the
score. A complete program por-
traying the west in the days of the
early PIONEER when the white man
and the Indian fought for suprem-
aey, when the only method of travel
was on the back Of an untamed west
ern bronco, has been arranged.
Prizes will be offered for which
cowboys, cowgirls and Indians will
meet as contestants. Big govern
ment cavalry troops will present each
day feats on horse back that will be
q revelation to those not familiar
with U. s. Cavalry training. Stage
coach races, chariot races, wild
horse races and all other events that
go to make UP real western show
have been arranged on the daily pro-
gram.
Reno Park, the scene of the three
days celebration, has no equal in the
State as place for sach an exhibit
ton, and Idaho Falls has every facil-
ity for taking care OF the thousands
who will be the guests of the city
Splendid free parking grounds for
tourists. Big hotels and first class
rooming houses that will be open at
rates. The pleasure and convenience
of everyone has been provided for
and entertainment for three days as
sured.

'POPULARIZING"
LARGR INDUSTRIES

Large corporations have seen that
the way to popularize their proper
ties is to have the people" own their
stocks and bonds. Repatriation
OF the secureties Of the Standard Oil
Company and it's various subsidiaries
was accomplished through stock di-
vidends and reductions of par values
as well as through publication of fl
nancial information.
The public utility companies of the
West were leaders in this movement
OF giving their secureties wide dis
tribution in the territory where they
operate. The value of "popularizing'
corporation securities was well Illus
trated during the recent general
stock depression when the Standard
OIL stocks showed pronounced
strength.

COOPERATION
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

Popular financing of state regulat-
ed utilities is the greatest step yet
taken in cooperative community de-
velopment.
The California public service COM
mission is allowing utility rates that
provide for dividend requirements
and also permit substantial reserve
fund so that investors are properly
protected.
The Southern California Edison
Co., has now 1850 employee and
customer owners of stock and is pay
ing 8 liz per cent dividends-with
assets of $3.50, O0O,0 900.
The company supplies an area OF
$4,000 square miles, population OF
100000 and has over 100000 GUS
toners for electric power, light and
heat.
Millions OF dollars a month are in
vested by tho people in well-manag-
ed western utilities under the con-
structive policies adopted for state
regulation.

HOLIDAYS DESIGNATED

Montpelier's holiday problem has
been solved for good. The business
men of the city very congenially
agreed to a program as recommended
by the Chamber of Commerce and
carried into effect by live commit
tee representing that body Tuesday.
Nine holidays will be observed In
the city each year, and on those days
every business institution will close,
except such business that depends on
such days for the major part of their
business, and drug stores and fruit
stands.
This action will eliminate the en-
barrassing circumstances heretofore
encountered when holiday OF less
Importance came along, when one or
two unauthorized individuals would
take 1t upon themselves to canvass
tho business men in behalf of the
holiday. Many times it resulted in
misunderstanding, and some. firms
would open and others wouldn't.
The regular cloing program is q
good one. and we hope everyone con-

barometric pressure northward from
their usual locations. It can hardly
be said that the northern hemisphere
as a whole is experiencing any diff
ferent weather than usual. Rather,
it might be said that we are getting
the weather that belongs to the
south of us, while our own normal
weather has gone to minister to the

to much greater extent than usual
and covers greatly increased area,
even encroaching on the North Amer
lean and European continets. Tho
result is that the path of the lows
has bee pushed farther north. In
America the disturbances that arc
counted upon to stir up the weather
periodically in tho northern states
recently have not drifted as far south
as the Canadian border, and when
they have advanced so far have seem
ed to bounce off as though weather
wall had been set up along tho
boundary. On the other side Of the
Atlantic the disturbances which usu
Tally crossed England and southern
and central Europe have ben shifted
off to the north of Norway. Doubt
less the rains should have watered
our northern states and the Tight
Little Isle' have fallen in the mus
kegs about Hudson Bay, ON Green
lands icy mountains, and on the froz-
en- wastes north of Europe and ST.
IBERIA where the midnight sun is shin
ing.
What has caused the northward
shifting of the pressure belts that
has given us our abnormal summer
is question about which scientists
in the absence of full data, can only
conjecture. Possibly the secret lies
in the southern hemisphere from
which practically no meteorological
when the cables assemble reports
daily from practically all sections of
of the earth that this and other alb
! truse weather problems can be fully
solved

ECONOMICAL
ADMINISTRATION

State Treasurer Friend W. Rich
ardson declares that economy IN
State administration is the big po-
litiqal issue before the people Of
California. His advise is good for
all states.
In 1916" says the State Treasur-
er, 1.-THE total appropriations were
$35 100000. In July 1919 they
reached $4,000 900. This year.
Notwithstanding the fact that every
where in public and private business
there was an insistent demand for
rigid retrenchment, bills were signed
aggregating $91 ,OOO, 200, an increase
Of IA per cent.
There must be a reduction Of the
State tax burden now bearing a.
heavily upon the people of the State
who pay all the taxes, regardless OF
the method of their living"
The actual reduction in taxation
will in a large measure rest with the
people. They must curb their de-
mands for state expenditures If they
expect to get reduction In taxes.
NAAANAChS oIalO muSt ne
elected and kept in office and they
must be held responsible for econo-
mical and business-like administra-
ton of state affairs.
The people will have no one hut
themselves to blame IL they fail to
adopt program of economy and eff
ficiency and demand that this pro-
gram be carried out by their duly
elected public servants.
The time to talk and act for econo-
my in public affairs is before cleo
tions, not after the voters have either
carelessly Or thoughtlessly heaped
additional tax burdens upon them
selves.
If the voters adopt business like
program they will then have a right
to demand that legislative extrava-
gance be wiped out and they will be
in position to hold accountable pub
lie officials who refuse to be guided
by the wishes of the people.

| OUR WEATHER GOES NORTH
FOR THE SUMMER

Washington, d. Ca period Of
drought and heat seldom equaled
during the lifetime of the oldest am
ateur weather observer has "the
world" in it's grip according to state
ments that have appeared over and
over again during the last few
months; and scores Of theories have
been advanced to account for this
worldwide" condition. That the al
tered weather situation is not so gem
Ieral as has been assumed and that it
lis less a case of undersupply than
r-distribution-to use marketing
lphrases-is brought out in the fol-
lowing bulletin from the Washington
ID. G. headquarters of THE National
Geographic Society.
Because we arc most familiar
with North America and Europe and
receive the vast majority of our tel
Legraphic dispatches from places on
those two conditions, we more or less
naturally fall into the error of con-
Esidering American and European con-
didions to be typical OF world con-
ditions," says tho bulletin. This
is true of the abnormally warm and
dry weather that has been experience
ed during the past two or three
months, probably over the middle
Ilatitudes of the entire northern hem
|isphere, but which we certainly know
to have been prevalent only in part
Of that region.
WARMER IN ALASKA
AND CANADA
1.-THE United States Weather Blu
reau receives reports from localities
spread over as great an area as that
covered by any other meteorological
agency, yet its operations are confin-
ed almost entirely to the northern
hemisphere. And since the outbreak
of the World War the Bureaus re-
ports do not cover either European
Russia or Siberia, which together
make up nearly half of the conti-
mental land rim about the North
Pole. We definitely know, however,
that the present summer has been
somewhat warmer than usual in
Alaska; that the heat and dryness in
the United States east of the Rockies
and north of the Southern states has
been more pronounced than usual;
and that the same factors have raised
the average temperature in Canada
and ripened the crops earlier than
usual Because of heat, and possibly
thinner ice, bergs have been more
numerous than usual in the North
Atlantic England has suffered from
drought which has made dangerous
inroads into the London water sup
ply and the heat has been oppressive
in many parts of Europe. the mer-
curry even rising much higher than
usual in parts of Switzerland.
Doubtless the famine in southeastern
Russia is also in part due to an alb
normal period of heat and drought.
The immediate cause of the warm
er and dryer weather in the parts of
the northern hemisphere with which
we are most familiar is temporary
shifting of the belts of high and low

LOWS LIKE GIANT
STIRRING SPOON

These areas Of high and low pres
sure play an all-important part in
furnishing the world with it's wealth
er. Ordinarily their locations, if
they are relatively stationary, and
their paths, If they move are pretty
well known. The highs roughly,
mean stagnation; they mark the
horse ATTITUDES of the mariners
regions of Gains and light, shifting
Indispensable winds. The blows ON
the other hand, may be considered
the great ladels with which nature
stirs her weather brew.
Usually in the summer a success
sion of lows forms over interior
Alaska, drifts down east of theRock-
les. traverses the northern portion Of
the United States and passes from
the continent down the st. Lawrence
valley. In their paths these lows
usually leave changes in wind dir
rection, lower temperature, and per
haps rain. They are disturbers OF
tho status quo. The highs more
nearly stationary, usually stand like
sentinels off the middle Pacific and
Atlantic shores, and herd the drift
ing lows to the northward at arms
length.

OF IMPROVED CONDITIONS

now and none of them are missing a
day at work. This is only ten per cent
smaller than the highest number of
emfiployes we ever had at the plant,
and that during the war, when there
were about 200. However, we are op-
Grating our factory No. 2, in the old
city hall building on a small scale and
there are an additional twenty en-
ployed there" Mr.. Pentler regards
the situation most favorably, believ
ing confidently that in his industry
there is every sign for continued inn
provement. He finds that under pres
ent circumstances orders are not
placed as far in advance as formerly.
The Pilot representative was unable
to reach ID. c. Everest, manager of the
Marathon Paper mills, but officials of
the company said that the plant lie op-
Grating full time with a full crew of
about $50 men. This condition has pre-
vailed for the past four or five months
and in view of business prospects in
this line it is expected. that it will
cintinue to do so, unless the proposed
railroad strike materialiZes
The Wisconsin Packing company,
according to A. A. Anderson, mana
ger, is employing about fifty men and
operating at about sixty-five per cent
of full capacity. Asked whether there
were prospects of this continuing, he
said, 1--WE look for conditions to be
even better in the near future"
At Full Speed
The Marathon Granite company is
operating about ninety-five per cent of
normal. George Silbernagel, Jr., said
that it was expected that the plant
would continue at this rate. winter
is our dull season, but we expect nor
NAL conditions to continue" A full
cvrew at the plant is composed of
about 125 men.
An idea of the status of the metal
working trades may be gained from
the statement of o. r. Bellinger, man
ager of the d. J. Murray Manufactur-
ing company. He said: Business
conditions have not changed greatly
OF late. We are running about sixty
10 seventy per cent of full capacity
and are employing about seventy men
This status we expect to maintain dur
ing the winter Inquiries for business
are coming in but buyers are still eau
tious about placing orders. There is,
however, much more optimistic feel
ing in the air and we are sure that
business will improve and keep on i'm

G. G. Hooker of the Dodge Hooker
Mills, states that just at the present
business is better than it had been
up to he past en- days ''Tne situa-
tion,' he said, sis not steady. At one
time we have a great demand and
then it slacks up again. 1t is hard
90 tell just what it will be for the
winter but | should say that the uot-
look is fairly good. We are running
about sixty per cent of full force and

OF NOV. As

The recreational institute for Wau-
sau, originally planned to be held on
the 4th and 5th of November, has
been postponed to Friday and Sat
urday, November 1919, because of a
conflict in dates with the state con-

Many of the local educators and teach
ers from the county wish to be present
at both of these educational gather
ings.
Prof. Edgar B. Gordon, community
music authority of the University of
Wisconsin, and DR.. j. G. Elsom, prom
inent authority on Boy, Scouting, group
games, and community recreation, will
have charge of the program, arrange
ments for which are being made by
Miss Mary A. Brady, home demonstra-
ton agent, and Marshall c. Graft, of
the local university extension office.
The institute will be limited to 100
members, but those who are inter-
ested in community music, community
recreation, Boy Scouting, rural club
work, playground work, recreational
activities, besides rural teachers and
members of Women's clubs are in
vited to attend. Visitors from Wiscon-
sin Rapids, Stevens Point, Tomahawk
and Amigo are expected as well as
many from Marathon county.

NEW BARRACKS TO
BE READY FOR USE
EARLY NEXT WEEK

The new barracks to accommodate
high school students will be ready
for use the early part of next week, it
is anticipated. This two room build
ing, large enough to accommodate 100
students, was purchased very recent
ly after the school board had received
permission from the common council
to arrange some temporary structure
in which classes could be held. the
high school building being very much
overcrowded. The barracks are man
ufactured at Manistee, Michigan, and
require only a few days time of ex-
pert carpenters to put, all the sec
tions being completed. A chimney
will have to be built, however, and
two separate stoves installed, one for
each room in the barracks. One hun
dred lockers are being installed in
the high school proper at the pres
ent time. According to Supt Tobey,
crowding in the Central school has
necessitated the use of cloak room
for recitation purposes. The CON
crete is being poured for the basement
of the new. school building, town of
