SPEAKS BEFORE
KIWANIS CLUB
Former Resident Discusses Hi,
Organization Plan for Wisconsin
Dairymen
(FrOm Thursdays daily

The weekly luncheon of the Kiwan-
Is club was served at the X. P. hall
on wednesday by the Ladies Auxili-
airy or the Sons of Veterans. About
nifty farmers and others interested
IN dairying were present, the guests
or the club. Many others wished to
attend but were unable to do so.
John NJ. Kelley addressed the club
on his organization plan for Wiscon-
sin dairymen. Mr.. Kelley formerly
made his home in Baraboo and is now
deeply engaged in organizing the
dairy business of the state that the
farmers may realize more for their
milk products. He stressed the point
that bankers, chambers of commerce
and business men must help organize
the dairymen of Wisconsin, if dairy
ing is ever to be operated on a bus
mess basis.
wisconsin is by wide margin the
greatest production state and the very
life OF the industry depends uIto
creatin9 a market outside the state
to absorb the surplus, converted into
butter and cheese.
Failure Through SaIesmanship
Wisconsin produces rs per cent of
the nations cheese but who sells
it? For the most part the dairy
men neither control, protect or in
fluence the marketing of their own
products.
Dairymen and farmers will appeal
to state legislatures and to Congress
for relief against oleo and filled milk,
and then cross the street to the cor
ner grocery and carry home olemar-
garine for their children to eat.
Dairying Not Se'S-supportinq
This depiorable business neglect
in dairying has brought the industry
TO a point where it is not self-supnort-
ing.
No industry on earth can survive
ans follow the same business methods
or lack of methods that exist in dairy
ing.
1t is because no industry can sur
vive that abandons it's product on the
market to dealers and spectators.
Reason For Failure
The dairymen fails because he does
not sell what he produces but aban-
dons his product to spectators and
dealers, the system of distribution is
insufficient, the value of trade names
is lost and practical advertising is
lacking.
Mr.. Keiley's remedy is as follows:
establish a market through advertis-
ing. apply attractive trade names to
standard qualities.
Imported cheese is selling in New
York for 81 lb. The bulk Of Wiscon.
sin cheese of poor quality and with
out trade name, goes begging at
35 cents.
The best OF Wiscnnsin's butter goes
to Philadelphia. But it goes just as
butter" to jobbers who put their
own label on and seu for fancy prices.
Both the consumer and producer pay
the penalty of the dairyman's ne
glect.
No Agent In County
Mr. Kelley called attention to the
fact shat Sauk county is one of the
few agricultural counties in the ma
tion without a county agent, and urg-
ed the i.iwanis club, the bankers and
business men to see to it that the
county board meet; 1g next month,
take necessary steps to secure a
county agent.
Several selections were enjoyed by
Elton NJ Roth, who is in the city to
assist in the revival meetings at the
Baptit church.

PICTURES OF TIE WORLD WAR
Fifty Photographers on Job, but views
Of Hardest Fighting Do Not
Tell the Story.

During the Civil war photography
was a new art. Only one man was OF
the iob-Brady. If Brady happened
TO be around when battle was fought
the battle would be photographed
otherwise not. But photography DUR
ing the recent war was no such nit
and-miss proposition. How the World
war was caught on negatives Is told
in an article in a recent number OF the
American Legion Weekly.
The very first ship that went over
carving General Pershing also carried
a movie man. And from that time not
single important engagement went
"unsnapped." When our army was AT
the height of it's operation 1t had 5O
photographers. And for every photog-
rapher in the field we had three men
I'm the laboratory ready to push our
negatives through.
Although the photographs extant al
ford a remarkable history, one OF the
disappointments has been that even
the best of the battle pictures do not
show the real danger because most or
the hard fighting was done at dawn
before the light was good enough.
During the whole war there was never
a motion picture made Of hand-to-hand
fighting by the American troops. The
Italian army posed some pictures, but
this was never allowed by American
generals.

rlne who participated in the work
Of rescue.
According to General Lejeune this
policy Is based on a theory which
has seldom been considered in con-
nection with the military service,
namely, that the marine corps exists
not only to serve the nation In war,
but to constitute reserve of edu-
Gated, trained, technical men ready
to come to the aid of the country in
any manner in which their services
may be needed in emergencies Of
peace.
An apt illustration Of the manner
in which the corps new policy has
put all marines ION their toes" to
serve the nation whenever needed, Is
furnished in the happenings Of the
collapse Of the Knickerbocker thea
ter. The roof of the ill-fated build
ing fell shortly after 8 o'clock on the
evening Of January %. Within
quarter Of an hour more than 200
marines with trucks containing jacks,
acetylene torches and other devices
were bucking their way through the
heavy snow to the scene Of the acci-
dent two miles away. Their work on
arrival Is too we'll known all over the
country to need retelling.

Golden Shears for Secretary Hughes

NEWSPAPER correspondents at the

to Secretary Of State Hughes a pair
Of gold desk shears In token OF their
appreciation for his "kindly assistance

The gift was presented by Matthew

FOUR TROOPS FOR STATE

Superintendent Derrick Of the State
School for Boys at Jamesburg, n. j.,
recently visited the national council
Headquarters in order to register four
new troops Of boy scouts Q2S bOys),
which have been organized in the
school. Mr.. Derrick is strong in his
faith that scouting will revolutionize
the lives Of these wayward boys, and
declares it has already worked won
ders In the institution. The scouts go
on hikes, 'pon honor, and so far no ad-
vantage has been taken of the privi-
lege. This past holiday season was
the first for many years, according to
Superintendent Derrick, in which no
attempt has been made by boys to es-
cape from the institution. He lays
this fact largely to scouting.

SCOUTS ON JOB AT DISASTER

Boy scouts rendered conspicuous
service in connection with the Knick-
erbocker theater disaster in Washing
ton, being not only among the first Of
the original rescuers but being contin-
uously in service so long as there was
anything to do.
Scoutmaster K r. Hall of Troop 65
happened to be close at hand when the
disaster occurred and set to work at
once, using his knowledge of first aid
to excellent purpose. Scoutmaster
King of Troop was returning from
a troop meeting when he learned Of
the tragedy ard mobiized his boys as
promptly as possible for service. Other
scoutmasters were notified and by
Sunday morning as many as $50 scouts
were on the job, helping the police
save lives, running errands, distribut-
ing food guiding persons to the tenn
pOrary mOrgue, etc. Particular praise
is due to Assistant Scoutmasters
Hutchinson and Yllek Of Troop "A, who
with 20 boys, hiked from Petworth
through the snow, arriving on the
scene in half an hour. Special men-
ton is also made Of work done by
Troop 73, under Scoutmaster Robin;
Troop 81, under Scoutmaster Taylor.
Troops l and 43 also did fine work.
That the work of the scouts was ap-
preciated by the authorities is evil
denced by the following letter from
General Bandholtz of the War depart
ment:
"The reports indicate that the vol
unteer service rendered by the boy
scouts during the recent knickerbock-
er theater disaster is worthy Of the
highest praise.
"The assistance given the officers and
soldiers working at the scene of the
catastrophe is greatly appreciated,
and / wish to extend to you the
grateful thanks of my entire command
for your efficient and courageous as
sistance."

but didn't fight they left the fighting

The proper ingredients are mixed
together and melted in large pots. The
molten mass is then poured out on
great iron tables and heavy roller
flattens out the glass TO the desired
thickness. The sheets are then an
nealed, which consists of heating them
slowly in various chambers kept at
different temperatures. This Is lot
the purpose of relieving unnatural
strain in the formed glass, which
makes it extremely brittle, so that Il
mere touch is sometimes sufficient to
cause the plate to break. After the
glass has been cut to the proper size
the sheets are polished by rubbing
