CREAMERY
WINS HONOR
GETS SECOND PLACE IN
STATE CONTEST
Butter Exhibited Receives a
Score of 96.75, While First
Place Butter Has Score Of
81.

The officers and stockholders of
the Chequamegon Creamery as well
as the people of Washburn, are
nightly pleased this week over the
announcement that butter made in
Washburn and exhibited by Butter
maker Maurice Hanson at the State
Buttermakers Convention held at
Lacrosse, Nov. 7th, 9Th and 9th, had
been awarded second place in the
state contest, the score of the butter
exhibited being 96.75, while the
score of the butter receiving highest
place was only 81. Had the butter
exhibited by the Washburn creamery
had sufficient age to give it more
aroma no doubt first honors for the
state would have come to the Wash
burn institution.
There were 100 entries at the
state convention so it can be seen
that competition was keen, and ma
turally the officers of the creamery as
well as Mr.. Hanson are pleased over
their success.
The first place was awarded to
the Amery Creamery, Albert Erick-
son, buttermaker.
Three of other creameries of Bay
field county had exhibits at the show,
The Benoit creamery receiving a score
of $3.50, the Mason creamery 81 and
the Barksdale creamery 1926.

ANENT ASHLAND ROAD

I noticed an item in your last is
sue in regard to the piece of road
around the bay leading into Ash
land. If the public would look fur
ther into te contracting game, they
would know why there is not any
money in contracting. In this case
they would have to charge some OF
the blame to the winds.
When the contractor entered upon
this job he was to obtain the sand
for the fill from the beach. But
every place he would start he was
legally stopped until at last he
found one fair minded gentleman
who knew the sea would bring him
sand in return. But this was only
about ten percent of what he need,
ed. After taking it all out ne
would have to sit and wait for an.
other storm to bring in more, and
after about sixty days of waiting ne
finally obtained enough. Then ne
put on extra crew and hurried the
CLAW surface with the understanding
that the gravel would be shipped ane
delivered by the state at once. Afte1
the arrival of five cars of the gravel
this stopped for reasons / won't ex
plain. -
Now the contractors wagons are
backed up to the side track waiting
and the contractor is living on thu
profits of his sand fill, and the pub
lie is cussing hm.-Interested Party

CANCER CURABLE
IN EARLY STAGE
SAY PROMINENT PHYSI-
CLANS OF WORLD
To Get People Acquainted With
Nature of the Disease Will
Help in It's Cure.

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 16.-Cance,
is durable but only if treated in early
sages and by competent surgeons
This is the keynote of the Cancer
week campaign now in progress, aim
ing to spread knowledge of the insid-
ious beginnings of this disease and
the need for prompt operation when
the manifestations are positive.
Danger lies in the fact that, in the
absence of pain, victims permit
symptoms, such as persisting Jumps,
sores that do not heal and other
signals to go unheeded SO that it fire.
quently progresses to point that
render effective interference either
difficult or impossible.
The state board of health enum-
Grated these facts about cancer: At
the beginning cancer is usually pain
less which tends to throw the vic
tim off guard. At first, also, it is
small growth. If operated upon
at this stage, recovery is usually as
sured. 1t can be safely and readily
removed by competent surgeon or
by other treatment in the hands of
a reputable physician.
knowledge that cancer is not a
constitutional or blood disease, that
it is not infectious, nor hereditary,
should give peace Of mind in many
quarters.
every lump in the breast" says
the state board of health, should
Immediately be examined by COM
peptent physician. When indicated
the treatment should be prompt and
thorough. A persistent abnormal
discharge or bleeding should be re-
garded with great suspicion and
medical advice sought at once. Sores,
cracks, lacerations Jumps and ulcers
which do not heal rapidly, and warts,
moles or birthmarks which change
in size, color or appearance should
likewise be regarded with suspicion.
Experience has shown that cancer
rarely results from sudden injury.
Continued sources of irritation are
now regarded as the usual cause OF
cancer.
"The keynote of cancer prevention
is insistence upon thorough physi-
cal examination by competent ply
sician. The doctor who treats a sus-
picious symptom lightly is in the
same class as the quack who pre-
soribes the Cancer cure or the per-
son who recommends the patent nom
trum. There is no medicine which
will cure cancer, and corrosive
paste are worse than useless. The
best possible advice and scientific
treatment are none too good for
those who would escape death from
cancer"
Comprehensive information on this
subject is available in printed form.
One CT the popular pamphlets, en-
titled "Cancer: Facts Which Every
adult Should Know" is obtainable
from the state board of health, Madi-
son free upon request.
"Were every adult in Wisconsin
conversant with the most recent
knowledge concerning cancer" the
board concluded, "the steadily mount
ing death rate would be halted and
soon move in the opposite direction

SOVIET RUSSIA
. IS COMING NEW
SILVER NONE

Petrograd, June -S.-New silver
money which in time the sow
government hopes to put in circu-
lation to replace, partly at least.
the paper ruble of today is being
coined In the Petrograd mint. The
only existing plant of its kind in
Russia.
The mint began operating sew
eral months ago; up to the present
time 1t has manufactured 100000
rubles in silver OF denominations
Of 10, IS. 20, so copecks, and /
ruble pieces. The coins contain
90 per cent silver and 10 per cent
copper, and in general appearance
are much the same as those in use
before the war. Close inspection,
however, shows that the soviet coat
of arms has replaced the old inn
perial eagle. Another striking fea-
ture is the bolshevik motto PRO
letariat of the world, unite" on the
reverse side.
The new coins are sent to Mos
COW where they are held as part OF
the government reserve. When a
sufficient quantity has been as
sembled the government contem-
plates using chem as n form of
guarantee for paper money to be
issued in the future. Ultimately 1t
is hoped to put them generally In
circulation, and thus obviate the
present necessity Of calculating in
billions and millions for the needs
of every day life.

men fighting day and night to

district forest officials made the
appeal for help Saturday to several
OF the nearby army posts, in
Guiding Fort Bliss.
Hhe commandants considered
the application for man power
and decided that there were no
funds with which to carry the
soldiers to the scene of the fire
and to sustain them once they
were there.
Additional workers were secured
at Silver City, Mogollon and other
cities and towns in the neighbor-
hood of the mines yesterday, but
high winds whipped the fire along
at a rate that made putting it
under control with the available
man supply impossible.
The situation became worse
late yesterday and arrangements
were made for 100 miners from
the Mogollon mine, about 15 miles
from Mogollon, to stop their work
and assist in the fire fighting
operations. They were expected
to reach the scene late last night.
More than 500 men were actively
engaged in fighting the fire yes-
terday. Large numbers Of work.
ers who had fought straight
through for more than three days
were compelled yesterday to take
a rest and sleep.
1t is believed that at least 500
men will be on the job this
morning. II necessary, other mine
forces will be transferred to the
work by the mine companies.

Washington, June 1S.-Another

ference virtually in accord on the
compromise agreement to hold the
tariff bill before the senate with u
positive declaration for right OF

ure and its passage before congress
adJourns. Party leaders of all fac
tons declared that the plan agreed
upon probably would be adopted
at tomorrow's conference with lit

Gates of the bonus promising to
bring the matter of procedure be-
fore the senate for another sharp

place the senate on record for or
against further delay on the bonus

would come tomorrow was in de-
bate, the naval appropriation bill
which it had been hoped to pass
yesterday, being still before the
senate.
Among senator's said to be plan

aside the tariff measure and pro-
ceed with the bonus were La Fol-

Some of the republican member
ship, it was said, probably would
not attend tomorrow's party conr

ters that the conference action
would nok he,-btading but probably
would be followed by a sufficient
majority of republicans to block
any attempt to substitute the bonus
for the tariff bill.
That continuation Of senate de-
bate on the tariff bill might oper--

bonus measures was the opinion
expressed by influential republican
leaders.
