NORTHERN WISCONSIN GRAIN
SHOW IN JANUARY.
Northern Wisconsin State Grain
Show Will Be Held at
Park Falls.

The Northern Wisconsin Grain
Show will be held in the Commercial
Club rooms at Park Falls on January
3, 4 and 5.
The premium lists for the show
have been published and can be OBJ
tanned at the office of the County
Agent, Phillips, or at any bank in
Price county.
The premiums are large, being as
high as $500 for first prise on most
of the grain exhibits.
An interesting feature of the show
will be booths in which farmers will
exhibit seed grains they have for
sale. Samples will be exhibited
guaranteed to be the same as the
seed to be shipped, and farmers can
order their spring supply of grains
from other farmers and know they
are getting the best.
A very interesting program is be-
ing arranged and will be published
shortly.
The 500 Line railroad has offered
silver cup to the high school judg-
ing team winning the grain judging
contest. A number of high schools
in Price county are expecting to
send teams.
The show is being sponsored by
the Park Falls Commercial club. The
officers of the club are now busy ar
ranging a special entertainment fea-
ture for the show

The Tiger as Guest.

The American people have given
a tremendous welcome to the former
premier of France, George Clemen-
ceau, whose fiery determination
earned for him the nickname OF
ssThe Tiger. The man whose un-
faltering courage nerved France to
keep fighting in an hour that SEEM
ed hopelessly dark, will always be the
friend of America, even if he claims
this country failed to finish its work
across the sea-.
The United States could do more
for Europe, if those powers would
do more for themselves. When
tl.ey work for universal peace, stop
grabbing territory, refuse to provide
arms to backward nations like the
Turks, and cut down expenditure for
war purposes, the United States can
work with them more harmoniously.

Workmen's Compensation Results

Workmen's Compensation Results.
The Industrial Commission an
nounces that study of the Work
mems Compensation cases settled
during the first half of 1922 shows
the average weekly wage of injured
workmen to be $24.55. This COM
pares with $22.99 during the second
half of 1919, $28.51 during the Sc
cond half of 1920 and $26O9 during
the second half of 1921. The
figures of the Industrial Commission
further disclosed the fact that week
ly wages rose steadily from 1921 In
that first half of 1915 until the
peak of $28.51 reached in the second
half of 1920 since which time they
have been declining. 1t is expected
that the second half of this year will
witness an upturn.

Christmas Trade.

1t is a pleasure to go through the
stores of our city at this time of the
year. They carry all the up to date
holiday and winter stuff that any of
our people need to supply Christmas
gifts, or the outfits required for the
season.
Stores like those of our town are
just as up to date in these times as
those in big cities. They prepare
for the holiday trade just as care
fully as any store can, and are ad-
vised by live and wide awake sales
men and wholesale houses as to what
lines of goods are most popular this
year and will best please the people.
In buying at home you not merely
get goods, that are up to the minute
in every respect, but they are sold at
low prices. The cost of operating
stores is relatively small in town
like ours, and they can afford to
sell stuff lower than it can be offer
ed in large cities.

Holiday Mail Service.

AS the holiday season approaches
it becomes necessary to again ask the
cooperation of the mailing public to
help solve the problem of efficient
mail service during this great strain
on TIE postal service.
The department will again desig-
nate EMAIL Early Week" and you are
asked to mail all holiday mail, prop
erly prepared during this week in or
der to avoid the eleventh hour con-
gestion and insure delivery of mail
before Christmas. You may indorse
all parcels "Please do not open until
Christmas"
Congestion in the postal service,
non-delivery, loss and damage of
mail matters can be avoided to a
great extent by closely following
suggestions:
Mail early. Holiday parcels
should be mailed during "Mail Early
Week" to insure delivery before
Christmas.
Address carefully. Use pen and ink
and give address in full, with street
and number when necessary. Place
the stamp on upper right hand cor
ner Of envelope or parcel.
Wrap securely. Parcels should
be wrapped in heavy paper and tied
with strong twine. Parcels contain
ing fragile articles should be care
fully packed and labeled Fragile.
Parcels not properly packed and
wrapped will not be accepted.
Authorizations. Write name of
firms, postoffces and states in full.
For instance you can see how "Pa. "
for Pennsylvania and ia" fol
Louisiana, or "Col" for Colorado
and "Cal". for California might be
confusing and cause mistakes.
Return Address. Letters ano
parcels should bear the sender's re-
turn address plainly written to insure
return in case of non-delivery.
Mail early and prepare mail care
fully and the postal service will dc
the rest.

WILL ADVERTISE
RESORT SECTIONS
First Concerted Movement to Popu-
larize Northern Wisconsin's
Lakes Has Been Started.
CAMPAIGN TO RAISE $4,000
Intensive Advertising Campaign in
Middle West During This
Winter and Next Spring.

Rhinelander-Nort Wiscon-
sins first concerted movement for
advertising its 1000 lakes as an ideal
resort section has been launched by
the official announcement of the
Northern Wisconsin Resort associa-
ton of a campaign to raise a $780,
600 fund to be spent this winter and
spring in an intensive advertising
campaign in the Middle West.
In this campaign a well-planned
effort will be made to enroll in the
association as members all the lead
ing and public-spirited citizens and
business concerns of the thirty
northern counties of Wisconsin.
Northern Wisconsin in action"
is one of the slogans adopted for the
district wide forward movement.
Extensive plans are being made for
the campaign. Foundations will
be carefully laid. Six weeks will
be spent in educational work and in
getting ready campaign organiza-
ton that will conduct canvass in
every county, city, town and village
at the same time.
Officials of the association believe
that the citizens of Northern Wis
consin will get this movement 100
per cent strong, and that when the
call for service comes for committee
work or teams for the local cam
paigns, every citizen will feel that
it is too important duty for any
one to decline. The forward move
ment will be under the direction of
a general campaign executive COM
mittee to be named by President w.
o. Connor, Jr., of Laona. The
members of this committee will be
district and county chairmen. There
will be county campaign committees
to supervise the county campaigns
and a team organization in every
population center.
The official announcement OF the
Resort association states that the
drive for an advertising fund will be
only one phase of the two months
campaign. One object will be to
''sell" the advantages of Northern
Wisconsin to it's own people, not
only as great resort section, but In
many otner ways. Another objective
will be to bring about a spirit OF
greater service to be rendered the
tourists that come this way each
summer so that as they go back
home each will be booster for this
section of the world.
The Resort association is still an
infant, the initial meeting having
been held in October, but it is very

sell have fallen very much more, to
an average of perhaps 25 per cent
above pre-war prices. Here is a
condition that is absolutely unsound
and leaves the business of the coun-
try in disturbed condition. The
farmer whose bushel of wheat or
potatoes will go so short distance
compared with purchasing power in
1918, is up against it. He can not
buy his customary supplies. The
factories that supply his needs can
not do good business with his pur-
chasing power so depressed.
Legislation can not cure all these
evils. But it could do much. An
adequate system Of rural credits
would permit the farmer to hold
his crops until the best time to sell
them, instead of dumping them on
the market all in a heap and letting
the. speculator take the profits.
Adequate taxation of great fortunes
also will help relieve the burden of
the assessments on the ordinary
citizens
The scales of transportation and
factory labor ought to come to the
point where merchandise can be
manufactured and transported for a
price that the country people can
pay. Until this is done, business is
likely to run by fits and starts, and
the manufacturing centers must
suffer from the difficulties that lead
the country folks to curtail their
purchase of commodities.

TAKES POT SHOTS

Mrs. Nicholas Verbos Fires Six
Shots at Her Husband During
Family Quarrel Tuesday
Night.
TWO SHOTS TAKE EFFECT
Nicholas Taken to Runstrom' S
Hospital With Bullets in Right
Leg and in the Thigh.

Bang! Bang! Take that, you

With these words Mrs. Nicholas
Verbos shot her husband twice late
Tuesday night during a family
quarrel in the Miners Home, a
thirst emporium on west Silver
street.
She empticd 32-caliber revolver

of them, four of the shots going wild.
One shot struck Verbos in the right
eg and another lodged in the thigh.
lie was removed to Runstrom's
hospital, where it was said that the
wounds were not serious and that
the man would probably recover.
From the facts gathered so far it
does not appear that the eternal
triangle" had anything to do with the
affair. Another women has not
been mentioned with the case, al
Though full particulars will not be
known until Mrs. Verbos has her pre-
fiiminary hearing. 1t appears to
have been, the result of tempest
ION the sea of matrimony. Mrs.
iVerbos charges that her husband
was drunk Tuesday night, became
abusive and handled her roughly,
fboth with his tongue and physically.
When she thought that he had gone
about far enough she armed herself
] with revolver and when Verbos at
tempted to continue his rough tactics
she opened fire.
Mrs. Verbos was placed under ar
rest and arraigned in municipal court
the following day.. She was unable
to furnish bail bond of $1,000 and
was remanded to jail pending the
hearing which has been set for next
Wednesday.

rapidly growing and active infant,
and is expected very soon to be on
par in membership and financial
strength with the noted associations
of similar character in other states.
Al it's organization meeting there
were two hundred business men and
resort owners of northern Wisconsin
present. The attendance and en-
thusiasm was far greater than that
hoped for by the originators of the
idea. All doubt as to the possibili-
ties of success was dissipated by
this meeting, and there is now un-
bounded confidence on the part of
the officers and others in the associa-
ton on the outcome of this cam
paign.
The success of similar organiza-
tions in Minnesota, Michigan, Cal
ifornia, Colorado, and other states
in attracting tourists and other visit
ors has proved the power of coopera-
tive effort in such an enterprise. 1t
is estimated in Minnesota that the
work of the Ten Thousand Lakes of
Minnesota association has resulted in
an annual tourist business in that
state of over $25,000,000. The
tourist business of California and
Michigan is far greater than this.

The Fundamental Difficulty.

Many people in the cities and
manufacturing towns have noted the
recent election returns with puzzl-
ed telling, and they can not under
stand the reason why part of the
farmers have broken over the
customary party traces and have
uttered voice of protest.
These people should take note that
the farmers and with them all the
people in country towns who depend
on farm prosperity are menaced with
a threatening discrepancy. The
things they have to buy continue at
high prices, probably on an average
60 per cent above pre-war prices.
Meanwhile the things they have to

The Lesson of the Election

The country people were bigger
factor in the recent election than in
any previous contest. Usually it
was figured that the country folks
would walk up to the polls and vote
the same old ticket. But this year
they have got to the point where
they feel that the politicians must
recognize the needs of country life
and must meet those needs. They
are far better organized than ever
before, and puplic men who fail to
give the rural sections relief from
the trouble from which they are
suffering, will not get the rural
vote. A number of them learned
so to their sorrow on November z.

State Legislature Will Be Progress
sive in Both Houses.


Progressives have gained control
of both houses of the legislature.
Sessions will start here on January
II. 1t is now estimated that of the
33 members of the senate, II will
vote progressive and there is a pos
sibility that two men classed as
doubtful" will join the progressive
ranks. There are 80 republicans in
the senate and three socialists.
Of the 100 members of the lower
house, 81 are republicans and it IS
figured that 81 Of these are progress
sive. There are about 80 conserva-
sive or stalwart members. One
democrat has been elected and IL
socialists from Milwaukee.
Farmers lead in the house member
ship. Of the 100 members, 45 are
farmers. In the senate only two of
the 33 members are farmers. Many
of the senators come from cities and
the roll shows that the senate has
several lawyers, two doctors, two
bankers, one editor and number of
business men.

normal women have only two joints,
