RIJSK COUNTY OWNS
OVER 1900 AUTOMOBILES
Attendance Rather Small at MONDAY
LmcheOn.-Series Will End
Next Week

Ford sales to date this year have
been more numerous than for the same
period Of any previous year, was the
declaration Of H. NJ Jones, one of the
few automobile men at yesterdays $
MONDAY luncheon of the Chamber OF
Commerce. when the automobile deal
ers were supposed to have charge of
the program. They were rather con-
SpicuOuS for their absence however, to
use a hacknpyed phrase. Mr.. Jones
said that there were now fifteen
garages in Rusk county. counting the
two now being erected in Iadysmith.
Mr. Jones stated that the automobile,
at least for every farmer and most
business men. was an actual necessity
and added that no other piece Of ma
chinery farmer could buy would save
him so much time and effort.
1t was brought out that Rusk county
now has over 1000 automobiles worth
nearly half a million dollars. Besides
the taxes paid on these cars. their
owners pay to the state $4,000 in Ii
cense fees. one-fourth of which is
returned to the county for work ON
highways of the county.
A chart presented showed that over
half the cars in use i'll Rusk county
are Fords. giving the following figures
of the complete registration of cars in

INTERESTING MEETING
OF WOMEN'S LEAGUE

A well attended and interesting
meeting of the WOmen's League of Vo-
ters was held at the Chamber of Com
merce rooms last Tuesday afternoon.
Mrs. Ann Schaeffer gave some very
good suggestions how the women,
through the vote can cooperate with
the men in political spheres, as well
as in the home. She did not advocate
for the women to try beating the men
but work tremendously on the same
level in a gentle suggestive way.
Citizenship was discussed by Mrs.
Oakby. She mentioned especially, one
reason why the United States is a good
place to live in, and that is that ev-
cry one is equal before the law which
in turn does away with all class dis
tinction. She will continue her dis
cussion at the next meeting which will
be held next Tuesday. May II, at 3
o'clock, I, m ct the Chamber of Com
merce rooms. Everybody invited.

LADYSMITH CREAMERY
WILL GRADE THE CREAM

The Ladysmith Cooperative Cream
cry Co. will buy cream on a grade basis
after May 10. There will be but two
grades, as we understand it, but there
will be about six cents difference. No.
| cream must be delivered in good con
lition before noon, to be accorded that
grade This is considered the fair way
from the standpoints OF both the COM
pany and the patron.
The company on Wednesday made a
shipment of butter, part of which was
from No. l and part from No. cream,
to ascertain the difference in price
they will receive for it. The difference
in price of the two grades Of butter
will govern the difference in price
paid for the two grades of cream.
Many patrons, it seems, do not yet
understand how to take proper care
of their cream, Notwithstanding the
campaign that has been made in this
county in disseminating the best infOr-
nation on the subject. Many patrons,
for instance, wash their separatOrs
but once a day and only rinse them by
running water through them for the
second separation. They should be
washed thoroughly for each separation
of cream. for best results. With the
price of butterfat the lowest it has
been in years. it will pay to deliver
No. / cream and get the best possible
price.
The Ladysmith creamery was pay
ing % cents on Wednesday.

kaufman Building Has Twice the
Floor Space of Present
Quarters

The Ladysmith postoffice will be in

ST., adjoining the Unique theater, af-
ter August l. The governments lease
on the Fritz building expires June /,
but the postoffice will remain there un-
til August /. The government has ac-
cepted Mr. Kaufman's figures on a
lease of his building.
The Kaufman building has more
than twice the floor space of the pres
ent quarters The new location will
be just as convenient to the public as
tie present one.
Mr.. Kaufman will have to close out
his stock and have the building va
Gated by the first of August and by the
terms OF his lease, which runs for ten
years. Mr.. Kaufman must supply the
fixtures and have them installed by
that time. The lease takes the entire
ground floor of the main building, di-
mensions of which are 46X60, and the
basement, which will be used for Stor-
age purposes.
The postofiice force has been con-
siderably handicapped for some time
for lack of room. In the new quar-
ters there will be ample space to take
care of the increasing business for sew
eral years to come, or until the buSia
ness is fifty percent greater than it is
now. When the pOStoffice moves again,
it will doubtless be into a new gov
ernment building.
