Ever See a Louise Fight,

II it was not for Charlie Moore's
unquestioned reputation for veracity
at all times and under all conditions,
we would doubt this story. Anyway,
we give it to you as he gave it to us
and leave you to be the judge. Along
about a quarter Of century ago,
Charlie spent a winter in Chippewa
county in a logging camp. They fin
iished up a month earlier than an adj
jacent camp, and Charlie walked over
to finish the season there. He arrived
in the evening and entered the camp
to find the men gathered around tables
with cans Of smoking tobacco by each
man and intently absorbed in some
thing going on at each table. Crowd
ing up 10 see what was going on,
Charlie found that each man would
pick big louise off his person, put it
on the table and bet his can of tobacco
on it. Two Of the lice would be placed
close together and they would fight
like wild hogs. Lice taken from the
same human body were perfectly peace
able probably on speaking terms
but lice from different bodies would
fight TO the death.

Fertilizer Information

The product known as Soil Mamma
according to the sellers own statement
varies in composition The analysis
which is reported as made by the Uni
versity of Wisconsin and the Uniyer-
sity of Michigan were samples collect
ed by the Soil Mamma people and not
by disinterested parties. The analy-
sis of these samples show that the pro-
duct is of low value and that, in fact
it has less potash than some of our
clay soil, and the phosphoric acid con-
tent is comparatively low.
According to Mr. w. HI. Strowd
state chemist, the purchase of this
product by the farmer is gamble and
the odds are against him.
Project Work
Mr.. r. A. Power, agricultural in
structor of the Viroqua High School
reports having started some fifty pro-
jects among his agricultural students.
These fifty boys doing specialized ag-
ricultural work will find their time
during the summer very much occupi-
ed in taking care Of their projects.
Mr.. Power has made special effort
to have all these project members keep
accurate account of all time. and la
Dor spent on their respective projects.
The project work as conducted by Mr..
Powers is mot only one of intensified
production, but is one of business ac-
counting which. is very essential in
determining cost of production. With
this large number of projects enroll
ed, Viroqua High School is, well in the
front rank in agricultural project work
for the state.
The fifty projects selected are made
up by the following: Hogs, potatoes,
strawberries, corn, soy beans. In the
hog class the breeds are limited to
Duroc Jersey, Poland China and Hamp-
shire breeds. In the potato class one
variety is used, namely the late vari-
ETY., or Rural New Yorker. In the
strawberry project the Dunlappen and
Everbearing varieties are used. The
corn projects are limited to Golden
Glow, Wisconsin Pedigree No. II corn.
The Soy bean project is limited to the
Manchu variety. This variety of beans
grown locally for the past four years
has proved most satisfactory and most
productive of many pods having three
beans each.
The work of this department is most
sincerely appreciated by the extension
division of Vernon county and it is
hoped that in the years to come other
high schools turnout the county will
lend their assistance to this depart
ment in providing project work for
their agricultural students.

Reduced Rates

Well, folkses, I have decided to
risk my chances on putting The Fool
Killer back to it's old price. Print
paper is still costing me twice as
much as it did before the war; but
the general trend of prices is down
ward, and I want to give my readers
the benefit Of all possible reduction.
because I know times are hard and
money scarce.
So please tell everybody you see
and send word to the rest that they
can now get The Fool-Killer again at
bhe old price--25 cents for single
subscription, or 15 cents each in clubs
of FIVE or more at one time. \
Now please rush in the subs like
you did in the old days, and I'll do
my level best to keep 'em awake.

Let Us Talk Over

Well, dear sinner friends, this is
The Fool-Killer.
How does it set on your stomach?
, II you like it you can get more at
headquarters.
The Fool-Killer is not even forty
'teventh cousin to any other paper on
earth.
It stands in class by itself, and it's
field is as broad as the English
language.
This paper wears no bell, muzzle,
collar nor halter.
You can put that down to start with.
Z am the fellow who works at the
pump-handle on this rag of reform.
never travelled any to speak of,
but have read a great deal, and
have thunk some.
And then / started The Fool-Killer,
lust TO quiet my nerves ard to keep
she old press from getting rusty.
From the seclusion of these wooded
stlills there will go forth each month
9 bundle Of literary dynamite that
will shake the rotten foundations Of
society and cause the church of
Mammon to ct least turn over in its
deep.
The Fool-Killer is a monthly mus
5ar61 plaster for the blood-boils of
Society, Church and State.
1t is written with a red-hot poker
dipped in razor-soup.
It rides the devil a. straddle without
q saddle, and spurs him at every lope.
1t is salted with wit, peppered with
humor, and seasoned with sarcasm.
Every line cuts like whip, and
every word raises a blister.
If you are fool you had better not
are wise you will, and that settles it
IAMES LARKIN PEARSON

I see where a preacher is
quoted as saying that hell is sew
en- times hotter than common
fire, and that heaven is the very
opposite Of hell. According to.
that sort of figuring it seems
that heaven would be about 200
degrees below zero. That being
the case, if anybody gets there
they will freeze to death.
