Election Determines Fight.
All three candidates said TO have
been the choice of the present county
school administration were defeated
for membership on the county board
of education in Tuesdays election.
The defeat of each was decisive.
Harry Mills, Homer Bierly and Ar
thur Morton defeated Ralph Ayers,
Harry Price and A. J. Murray for
board membership. The official vote
was: Mills, 1886; Bierly, 1886; Nor
ton. 1864; Ayers. 2061; Price, 2041:
Murray, 1926 The three men elected
made the race as Republicans, while
the defeated candidates ran as indie
pendents.
The fight between the school ad.
ministration, of which w. S. Fogarty
is superintendent and head, was a bit
ter and determined one. The opposi-
ton will control the county board of
education when the newly elected
members take office. Alleged activ-
tiles of the present board in crafty
and transferring school territory, oV or
alleged protest of school patrons, is
said TO have precipitated struggle
that was fought out at the polls in the
late election.

Farmers Using Limestone
Heavy Buying of "Stone" to Cor
rect Soil Acidity Over the
State.

Farmers of Indiana have used
more limestone in the last three
months than they have in the year
previous. This has been due to the
fact that an organized effort has
been made in several counties to
find out the number of acres OF
acid soil, how acid they are, what
results applications of limestone
have been giving, and then a con-
certed effort by the farmers to see
how best to supply themselves with
limestone to put their ground in
condition to raise legumes and pro-
fitable crops The active co-opera-
ton of the railroads and the lime
stone producers was solicited and
resulted in a lowering of freight
rates and the producers putting out
a product more profitable for farm
use.
Limestone can be applied eco
nomically to wheat already sown,
said W. A. Ostrander of the soils
and crops extension staff of Pur-
due university, in discussing the
use of limestone and the situation
in the state this fall. eff November
and December stay dry and the
roads hard, as soon as corn husk-
ing is over, it will pay every man,
whose soil is acid, to haul and ap-
ply limestone on ground that he is
going to seed to clover in the
spring"
In the seven counties, including
and surrounding Vigo, the county
agents and farmers associations
worked together in carrying the
limestone information to the farm
ers, and as a result, one stone
producer in that territory reports
1900 tons sold from July IS to
Oct l. Most of this went into the
district
In Harrison county. where one
community could not be reached
from the railroad, a crusher was
purchased by the farmers and 5000
tons have been pulverized and sold
since July l. Clark county farmers
started a concerted effort in June
and have applied 1900 tons from
that pulverized locally or outside
shipments.
Mari is being generally used III
many northern Indlana counties
one Elkhart county producer hav
ing been busy since May. In Steu
ben county, mari deposits through
out the county are being mapped
so that every farmer will have {
source of supply near home. Sim
liar work is being done in kosciu
sko county.
Limestone can be put on mos
profitably in the slack period o
the year and when the farmers
time is not worth as much as it il
during the rush seasons. All mus
remember that maximum returns
from limestone are not received
the first year. Profitable crop pro
duction on acid soil makes lime
stone necessity" said Mr.. Ostran
der.

Swine Experiments
Under Way at Purdue

Some idea of the efforts being
put forth by the Purdue university
agricultural experiment station to
aid the farmers of Indiana in solv-
ing their swine problems may be
gained by reciting the various
phases of swine experimental work
now in progress. Eight different
experiments are under way at this
time, all of them of Importance to
every farmer, because every farm
er has some hogs and is interested
in knowing the best method of han
ding them, in order to obtain max
imum profits.
Three factors in wintering brood
sows are being studied to determine
effects Of treatment of the sows on
spring filters through comparing
liberal and limited exercise; poor
and good rations; and medium and
fat condition of animals. Whether
hand or selffeeding is better in
growing a pig to weaving age is be
ing worked on, and growing and
fattening spring pigs for market, is
another experiment attracting much
interest. Here is being compared
the two systems, that of hurrying
pigs through to market or growing
them cheaply and fattening them
in the fall. The value of three for
age crops, clover, alfalfa and rape,
is being compared in a study on
growing and fattening hogs.
Different methods of hogging off
field corn are being studied with
six different lots of hogs. The in
fluence of fiber in swine rations is
! being investigated, and the value of
protein supplements to corn are
two of the other big problems.
| Substitutes for corn for fattening
hogs also is being studied. This
| experiment was undertaken when
| corn was high and substitutes were
| necessary.

slogan.
Wisconsin now ranks as the great
est dairying state in the Union. While
dairying in the northern counties is
still in its infancy, in the last two
years every northern county has
shown an increase of from $4,000 to
100000 pounds of dairy products.
Several counties in those two years
have increasd their production OF but
ter more than one million pounds per
county. Wisconsin produces more than
SO per cent of all cheese made in the
United States and one sixth Of all the
creamery butter.
So highly are Wisconsin dairy cattle
valued that many animals carry in
surance of from $4,000 to $4,000 on
their lives because of their value to
the dairymen and the industry. Wis
consin has more breeders associa-
lions than any other state and one
half of all the COW testing associa-
tons in the country.

REVENUE MAN HERE

II. S. Anderson, deputy internal
revenue collector for five counties,
with Rhinelander as headquarters,
was in town the first of the week for
the purpose of checking up the vari-
GUS business concerns in which the
federal government is interested in
the cOnductiOn Of their affairs. He re-
ported no evidence of any attempts
to evade any of the provisions re-
quired, other than minor ones caused
by not thoroughly understanding just
what is required of them in the way
of making proper reports, etc. Mr..
Anderson was formerly the owner
and editor of the Northern Citizen, a
newspaper published at what was
North Crandon. now Argonne, until
three years ago, when HIS plant was
destroyed by fire, and at which time
he discontinued the paper.

PLAN PUTTING Villas
IN NEW 9TH DISTRICT
Senator C. Birds Re-districting
Plan Would Place Us With
Several New NeighbOrs
if it Goes Thru

Senator Bird, chairman Of the re-
apportionment committee, has brought
forward a tentative congressional re-
districting to be submitted to leg
islative committee Several other plans
will be suggested The Bird plan, how
ever, will probably be used as the
basis if the committee decides to
create new congressional districts.
That this will be done in the present
session has not been finally determin-
ed, though the outlook is that the
committee will complete the job.
The Bird plan, which leaves each of
the incumbent congressman in posses
sion of a district to himself, is not as
likely to create opposition as a propo-
sal so to split the state as to throw
two or more congressman into a sin
gle district. All congressman, Wheth-
er regular Republican or Nonpartisan
league indOrsees, are afforded the
chance to succeed themselves.
According to the tentative lineup
Villas county would be in the Ninth
district, which comprises the follow
ing:

NEW BUILDINGS

P. J.. CARNEY this week began the
excavation for a 36x85 foot, two-story
building just west of his residence
property on Wall street. It will be
built of tile and the ground floor will
be used by him for his furniture
store, The second floor will be for
rental.
The building on the Logg lot on
Railroad street, purchased by Korth
& Zimpelmann, has been moved di-
rectly back to lot on Birch street,
north of the Richards residence,
where it will be converted into q du-
pick fat building for tenant purpos-
es. Albert Budde, who owns the land
upon which the building stood, has
started extensive improvements on
his Riverside Hotel property which
will cover the site.
Al new summer resort in under pro-
cess of construction on Yellow Birch
lake by L. r. Hatch Of Chicago, who
recently purchased the site.
The Langill Hotel underwent some
desirable changes in the interior last
week with the converting OF the Of
fee into a dining room, the old one
being added to the kitchen, while the
present Office room is located on the
north side of the building. The chan
ges add greatly to the appearance and
makes it far more convenient to han
die the guests and boarders there.

LAND CLEARERS HELD
FOUR GOOD MEETINGS
Eastern Villas County Associa-
ton and College of Agricul-
ture Show Farmers the
Proper Methods

The Land Clearing Department OF
the College of Agriculture at Madison
working in connection with the East
ern Villas County Land Clearing Asso
citation, held four one-day schools
last week at the following places:
Wednesday, at Reeds corner, in
Conover.
Thursday, at Sparks farm, in
State Line.
Friday, at Robt, Simmons farm at
Anvil lake.
Saturday. at the Hendricks farm
west Of town.
The farmers attending were much
interested and several points in the
use of explosives and land clearing
material were secured by the farmers
not familiar with their use.
The men from the Agricultural
College report a great deal Of prog
ress in land clearing all over the
northern part of the state this year,
and also that they observed many
acres in Villas county that have been
brought under the pillow since their
first visit few weeks ago. They adj
vocate the use Of explosives while the
is moist as better results will be OBJ
tanned. Farmers are advised to use up
explosives on hand as fast as posi-
BILE as it is thought the price will
be lower this fall.

FORESTS AND LABOR

Is labor interested in forest protec-
ton? 100000 men in Wisconsin lind
employment in the forest or in the
industries dependent on the forest
for operation. Over billion feet OF
lumber is produced annually in the
ESQ odd sawmills of the state, thous-
ands of tons Of paper from the pulp
and paper mills, and other products
valued at millions from the sash and
door mills, the furniture factories, and
the multitude of woodusing indus
tries. These industries furnish live
lihood for hundreds Of thousands OF
persons Of this state, and the forest
stands back of it all and is part OF
the foundation on which our entire
industrial system rests. Does it not
appear strange that intelligent Wis
consin citizens must be appealed to
to furnish the protection that is
needed to reasonably continue and
replace this great resource that now
does so much for the citizens of the
state.
Neither the trees on city streets
nor those Of parks will furnish suff-
icient material to keep the wheels,
which employ labor, turning in this
state. It will require forests on forest
producing lands. Fire is the enemy
of these new forests now. AS such,
these fires are the enemies Of labor
in every section of the state. Care
lessness is at the root of the forest
fire problems and 95 percent OF
those that occur can be prevented.
To accomplish this it is necessary
to keep the fire that ultimately de-
stroys from starting.
The men and women working in
the sawmills and other woodworking
plants in Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Wau-
sau, Sheboygan and dozen other
Wisconsin cities, even though they
never set foot in forest during the
year, have a definite and distinct in
terest in forest projections and ulti.
mately such protection will afford
them or their sons and daughters a
means of livelihood. Labor and the
forest have much in common The
workers of the state can well afford
to preach and practice forest protec..
ton.
