NEW OWNERS CALL

Chas. Jungman and E. G. Eckardt
were in town Monday getting some
what acquainted with the business
houses in Eagle River with whom they
will be closely connected in the fut-
ure. Mr.. Jungman is the new owner
and proprietor Of the Boot Lake Re-
sort and Mr.. Eckardt will act as gen
eral manager and personally attend to
the wants of tourists. Mr. Jungman
with his wife and children, Mr.. Eek
ardt and another employee drove up
last week from Milwaukee, being the
first cars to drive the route this spring
1t is the intention OF the ownership
and management to develop the re-
sort to capacity as fast as possible
and they should have no difficulty in
doing so as its location and outing
advantages are we'll known to many
who have visited there during the
time since it was first opened to the
public by the late M. J. Stromberg.

A MANS JOB

A mans job is his best fl 1t
clothes and feeds his wife ana Onil-
dren, pays the rent, and supplies them
with the wherewithal to develop and
become cultivated. The least a man
can do in return is to love lsi@45oh
A mans job is grateful. 1t is like a
little garden that thriYes on love. 1t
will one day flower into fruit worth
while, for him and his to enjoy. If
you ask any successful man the rea-
son for his making good, he will tell
you that first and foremost it is be-
cause he likes his work; indeed, he
loves it. His whole heart and soul
are wrapped up in it. His whole physi-
cal and mental energies are focused
on it. He walks his work, he talks
his work; he is entirely inseparable
from his work, and that is the way
every man worth his salt ought to
be if he wants to make of his work
what it should be, and make of him
self what he wants to be.

A KICK COMING

Somebody Numbered, or the calen-
dar slipt, when making the weather
full soon, and down through the sea
sons they gaily have tript, regardless
of sun, stars and moon. Sweet Easter
buds SILVER and long for the days
when birds MARBLE sweetly in tune,
but the robins and bluebirds are
changing their ways, while winter last
well UP toward June, The coal man
he chortles and chuckles with glee
as he rakes in our hardly earned cash,
but the kline wander homeward across
the bleak lea in their hangers no hay
only trash. Our onions and radishes
linger in fear of the frosts that will
nip them so soon, if the weather man
doesn't our wild pleading hear and
change his monotonous tune. We're
willing to suffer his erratic way when
he gives bleak fall in July, when he
buries Thanksgiving in snowdrifts
that stay, and covers our Christmas
trees high, but we've got a kick com
ing, we'll tell to the world, when he
takes us for boobs, dubs or prune,
while all Of his venom upon lis is
hurled and winter drags on up toward
June

NEED FEDERAL AID

Slogan Grow your products where
the people are. Where Should Agri-
cultural extension be made?
The far west has had several hum
dred of millions of dollars of Federal
funds for irrigation works. The cut
over regions have had none.
The west is asking the government
for several hundred millions more.
The proponents say it will cost 500
per acre to put water on their land
which is worthless until the govern
ment supplies the water. AS soon as
the water is supplied, the land own
ers demand 500 or more per acre
for their erstwhile worthless land.
After the government has spent
500 per acre and the owners have
demanded another hundred, it will
cost the settler as much to clear and
level the land for irrigation as TO
clear our cutover land.
Where should the government inter-
est itself?
3 The man who settles on our cutover
land grows his crops where the PEG
pie are'-he who goes on far western
Irrigated land grows his crops at a
point most distant from the large mar
kets.
Why should man pay 500 per acre
for water when it is free in our cut
over regions?
Pay 500 per acre for land when he
can get it in the cutover regions for
one-fourth that price?
Pay the largest possible freights
when the cutover regions are immedi-
ately surrounded by the most active
markets?
Hauling food products several thou
sand unnecessary miles, under present
conditions is like carrying Goals to
Newcastle.
Agricultural extension should be
from the market to the nearer zones
not the reverse.
Federal aid to settlers on our cut
over lands is consistent with economy,
in keeping with the requirements Of
our social unbalance and the food de-
rnands of the future.

GAVE GOOD CONCERT

The Easter concert given by the
Eagle River Band came up to all
expectations of the public, who,
through advance notices had been led
to believe that something really good
in i lsae was in store for
q gded The band shows
improvement and it is a, safe
ass srtion that very few towns of this
size ran boast of musical organiza-
ton IS well balanced apd as talentea
as the Eagle River Band. 1t is not an
idle boast The boys handle music of
a grade seldom tackled by amateurs
and one had but to hear their concert
Monday evening to know that they
handle it right. Following the concert
came the dance which was well patron
lied. The two events netted the or
ganization about fifty dollars for their
treasury, which is start toward
cleaning up the big debt recently in
Cured in purchasing an entire set of
new Instruments

NEW FIRE ALARM

At the meeting of the village board
Wednesday evening the matter of an
adequate fire alarm system for the
village was taken up with the result
that an order has been placed for a
new double head, three-phase, three
horse power motor electric siren. The
new equipment comes on trial and if
found satisfactory will be located at
some central point in the village with
alarm boxes in every section. The
need of an alarm system that can be
heard at all times has been very evil
dent at fires in the past, the present
outfit for that purpose being entirely
inadequate.

Campbell, farm at Three Lakes, for
years one of the recognized potato ex-
perts Of Wisconsin and whose farm
had furnished seed for experimental tai
purposes all over the United states.
The Starks company extensively
grows the Campbell strain and four
cars were first purchased to supply
our needs at price which made it
possible to deliver them to growers
at S1.50 net per bushel. Before the
campaign was very old, it became
evident that the order must be enlarg-
ed to supply the demand. A checking
up of orders at present writing shows
the sales to have exceeded eleven cars
with the demand still strong.
These potatoes are going into the
hands of approximately ESQ Villas
county farmers, in many cases to be
tried out against other varieties and
strains now being used. It is by far
the largest certified seed campaign
ever undertaken in any Wisconsin
county, or in the United States as lar
as known. In addition, a large ship
ment from the Starks farm at Three
Lakes has been shipped to New York
state to be tested out there on demon
Istration farms under the supervision
of the New York Agricultural College,
where they will be in competition with
the best strains produced by other
states, SO that the coming season will
offer an excellent opportunity for the
observation of comparative results.
In addition, thirty-three $3.50 Boys
Potato Clubs have been organized in
the thirty-six rural schools of the
county during the winter, and the
Campbell strain of Rurals will be furn-
ished them free Of cost by the Villas Co
Board of Supervisors, which body is
working hand in hand with Mr.. 0. b.
Gibson, the county agent, in an effort
to increase interest in purebred seed
potatoes. Our average acreage of po-
tatoes is not large but for the most
part the care given them is the best.
In order to carry on the constructive
program now started, the county has
been organized into thirteen commun-
ity clubs, and potato development is
one of the projects to which they are
committed.
Villas county has developed more
| than a merely local reputation for
quality potato production, it seems
reasonable to. believe in view of the
new interest being shown, that the
time is not far distant when it will
be in a position to supply not only a
most excellent market product, but
seed stock of the highest class in
unlimited quantities.
The state agricultural department
is arranging to establish a number of
stations in upper Wisconsin this sea-
son where all forms of potato plant
disease will be watched for and the
modern methods of fighting them be
demonstrated. One of them will prob
ably be at the Radcliffe Brothers farm
four miles north of town, and farmers
of Villas county will be notified and
invited to attend all visits made there
| by the best potato men of the state
during the growing season when var
ious tests will be made.

SPLENDID EDITION

The Ladysmith News-Budget cele-
brated its 2Sth anniversary, and the
installation of a new Premier press
with a fin extra edition last week.
It was printed on book paper and
gave an interesting account Of the
News Budget from its birth to the
present time, and altogether was a
credit to the publishers and the town
that supports it.

SETTLERS ARRIVE

Three cars of Indiana people arriv-
ed in town Sunday having driven the
entire distance for the purpose of
locating on lands bought last year in
the town of Phelps. Another large
party from the same place preceded
them by train and the population of
Phelps was increased by more than
ten families which is a pretty good
start for the spring of 1922.

ADDS TO BUSINESS

Chas. Zimplemann installed one of
the latest popcorn and peanut roasters
in his ice cream parlors last week. 1t

contrivances on it than Pierce Arrow

change but will undoubtedly prove a
paying adjunct of his business.

AUGUST WE'LL PASSED
AWAY MON. APR. 18th
Funeral Held From st. Ignatius'
Episcopal Church Yesterday
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Citizen of Town

August We'll, prominent and re-
spected citizen of Eagle River for
the past sixteen years, died at his
home here Monday afternoon from
the effects of Bright's disease with
other complications from which he
had suffered for about year and
which compelled his withdrawal from
business activity last October. Three
months ago he went to Chicago and
spent several weeks in a hospital, sub
hitting to an operation which was
hoped would prolong his life. Return
ing home three weeks ago, his condit-
ion soon took turn for the worse and
for number of days it had been
known that the end was near.
Mr.. We'll was born in Germany, Dec
20, 1864. Left parentless at an early
age, after completing his education,
he entered one of the large meat mar
kets in Coblentz, where he. learned
that business with the thorough
ness and proficiency that is demand
ed from students of all classes in that
country. In 1882, he came to the
United States, locating in Chicago
where he followed his avocation, lat
er going in business for himself. He
was married there on April 20, 1890,
to Miss Elizabeth Fix. To them three
children were born, Albert, Rose and
Harry In 1904 the family came to
Eagle River and Mr.. We'll opened
what he has since developed into
one of the best appointed fancy groc-
cry stores and meat markets to be
found outside of large cities and it
is spoken of with admiration in many
states by the strangers who have pat
ronized it when here for the summer.
Personally, he was man of genial
and kindly disposition whom both
friends and strangers enjoyed meet
ing and especially in his home where
hospitality always reigned. His pride
and faith in his home town was an
outstanding trait, and one not measur-
ed by words only. The signature of
A. We'll could always be seen on any
subscription paper designed to aid or
improve Eagle River, and he was
ee5aalIv liberal with assistance for
needy or unfortunate individuals. In
our estimation he believed in and
practiced the doctrine of the Brother
hood of Man in a degree that was
most commemorate. He was a true
friend and more charitable with those
with whom he differed than many men
we have known.
very large number Of friends of
the family here and elsewhere grieve
with them in their loss of a dear hus-
band and father, and Eagle River has
lost an estimable citizen with the
passing of August We'll.
Funeral services were held from st.
Ignatius Episcopal church of which he
was a member Thursday afternoon,
conducted by F'r. jain of Amigo.
Out of town relatives and friends
attending the funeral, were his nep-
hew, August Eulberg, of Chicago, who
had spent several days at his bedside,
Mrs. B. Wilhelm, R. G.. Wittenburg
and VIM. Hawkins all Of Chicago and
a number of friends and acquaintances
from Amigo and Rhinelander. Eagle
River business places closed during
the funeral hour.
