CARDINAL RATTI
is MADE POPE
Famous ITALIAN Prelate is Elect
ed on the Seventh Ballot TAX
en- by the Sacred College of
Cardinals. VIII Assume
The Nar:e of Pope Plus, Xl.

/ ROME, Feb. 6.-Cardinal Rattl
was today elected Pope on the sew
enth ballot of the Sacred College. He
will assume the name of Pope Plus,
the Eleventh.
The smoke signal from the Vatican
this morning was white and shortly
afterwards it was announced that
Achilleo Cardinal Ratti, an Italian.
had been elected to succeed the late
Pope Benedict, the Fifteenth.
Ratti's election was not surprise
although he was one of the newest OF
the cardinals, having been created a
cardinal in June, 1921, by the late
Pope Benedict.
Ratti was robed after the Papal
Deacons and Masters of Ceremony
had been admitted to the chapel. He
then ascended the temporary Papal
Throne, which had been prepared,
overlooking the seats of the cardi-
mails.
The first homage then was paid to
the new Pope b ythe Cardinals in
order.
The new Pope, himself, will desig-
nate the time and place for his Cor
onation.
This will be the most magnificent
ceremony of all, attending the death
of the Pope and election of his sue
|cessor.
Cardinal Ratti becomes the two
hundred and sixty-irst Pope since
the time of st. Peter.

sQUABBLE OVER WOOD

There seems to, be a squabble
brewing between the City Council
and the School Board over the at
tempted sale by the city to the
School Board of the popular wood
which has been cut. The School
Board is endeavoring to run the
schools as economically as possible,
and the council committee endeavor-
ed to get the schools to use this
wood in order to give employment
to labor about the city. 1t is said
that difficulty was encountered in
burning the woed in the steam plants
at the school and coal had to be sub
stituted.
The School Board, so it is said by
some members, never contracted for
the wood, and one member claims to
have figured out where it is much
cheaper to burn coal. In order to
pay the men who cut the wood the
council is endeaToring to get the
School Board to purchase the wood
and some of the members are putting
| up kick against this proposition
claiming; that the school board never
contracted for the wood. If the
school board refuses to purchase the
wood the council committe will have
to dispose of it in another manner.

TO FARMERS
LOCAL RESTITUTION HELPS
TO CLEAR LAND
Purchase of Poplar Bolt Ma
teriai for Excelsior Gives
Farmers Ready Cash and
Helps Clear Land.

Washburn has an institution that
is doing much to help clear up the
cut over lands in the region adjacent
to Washburn, this institution being
the plant of the Washburn Manufac-
turing company, manufacturers of
excelsior products.
While the plant Of this company
does not directly employ a great num-
Der of people, yet the money which
it pays out for bolt material is
keenly felt and is doing much to clear
up the cut over lands.
During the winter months the COM
pany purchases its supply of timber
for the coming season, and this con-
sists mostly of poplar bolts, which
is to be found in this region in abund-
ance.
In order for the farmer to clear up
his land it is necessary for him to
cut this timber anyway, and the pur-
chase of the same by this company,
not only gives him a cash return for
the bolts but also assists him in
clearing up his land more rapidly.
During the past few weeks many
teams having been hauling bolts to
the plant of this company, and a
large amount of money has been paid
out to farmers in this manner. 1t
is giving them market for timber
which would otherwise be invaluable
besides encouraging them to clear
up their land at the same time.

BIC CHARITY l!
BALL FRIDAY
MONSTER PARTY TO BE
STAGED BY RAILROAD BOYS
Entire Proceeds VIII Go to
Charity, Practically All Ser
vices Having Been Provided
Gratis for the Party.

Friday night gives promise of be-
ing red letter event in the history
of Washburn, when the Brotherhood
of Railway employees will stage
their third annual charity ball. Up
wards of three hygd;ed tickets are
out and it is expected that the large
gymnasium at the Du Pont club
will be taxed to its capacity to ac-
commodate the crowds.
The Railroad boys say it will be
the most successful Charity ball ever
held in the city, and it will be out of
the ordinary from the regular style
of dances staged, in that it will
consist of a number of special fea-
lures for the amusement of those
who do not care to dance. The
managers are keeping these special
features rather secret, but it is
said that they will be worth the
price of admission alone, and will be
given between dances in order not to
interrupt the dancing.
But as secretive as the boys have
been in keeping this feature under
their hats" yet it has leaked out that
James Morris and Charley Wolff are
going to appear on the program in
duet in which they will sing their
latest hit entitled "Moon, Moon,
Where is Thy Sting" and in the
event of an encore they have an
other hit up their sleeve entitled
"Bert and Joe and Jade Sat on a
Railroad Track" 1t is understood
by those on the inside that Jadie
Manning has been instructor for
these two singers and that they are
looking for Jews harp as an ac-
compartment. Information from
the local drug store is that one of
the singers has been buying large
quantities of three-in-one oil while
the other r-is-.usinss mepthol drops in
order to keep their voices in condi-
ton for the fatal" evening.
There will be plenty of other at
fractions of real merit to be given
between dances.
The music for the party will be fur
nished by a combination of orchestras,
each playing a part of the time, SO
that dancers can have ther fill or a
variety of music.
The proceeds are going to be used
|! by the Railroad boys for relieving
distress among the needy people OF
the city and community.
The date of the dance is Friday
night, Feb. 10th, at Du Pont Club.

AN EARLY SPRING

Last Thursday was Ground Hog
day and according to old traditions,
if the animal did not see his shadow
on that day when he emerged from
his hole, the back of winter was
broken. According to reports all
over the country the day was cloudy,
which naturally prevented the little
animal from seeing his shadow, and
if signs do not fail, spring ought to
come along soon.
But up in Northern Wisconsin it
makes little difference whether or
not the Grounding sees his shadow,
for winter usually remains about the
same every year, with but few ex-
ceptions.

STATES HEALTH
AT HIGH MARK
Death Rate at New Low Level;
Report Drop in Tuberculosis
Toll.

MADISON-In common with the
rest of the country, Wisconsin ex-
perienced it's healthiest year in 1921.
according to the state board of health
report, issued Monday. Not only
did the mortality from the principal
communicable diseases reach a new
low level, but the number of cases
was likewise smaller than usual.
Wisconsin last year had fewer tu-
berculosis deaths than in any year of
it's history, the complete figures
showing 254 fewer deaths than in
1920. Total tuberculosis deaths
were 1868, as against 2,217 in 1920.
REPORTING Service Better
One factor in the better showing is
the improved reporting of cases and
deaths, which the board believes is
due to it's persistent campaign of
education in the last few years.
This improvement is evident especial
" in diphtheria, scarlet fever and
tuberculosis
Some authorities seen in the coun-
try's improved health record a re-
suit of the flu epidemic, which re-
moved many tuberculosis people and
those with tubercular tendencies, thus
reducing the susceptible materal.
A factor in the increased typhoid
fatalities in the state was the occur
renee of the disease in highway con-
struction campe, few manufacture
ing plants, and summer resorts, where
the seriousness of imperfect water
and sewerage facilities was not realiz
ed. There was also an increase in
smallpox deaths, from z to II, due
principally to public neglect of con-
tact dangers and to limited vaccina-
ton.
Pneumonia Toll Large
Scarlet fever declined, five fewer
deaths being recorded, but an in
crease of 1000 cases over 1920 was
shown. There were 20 more diph-
liberia deaths and 1880 more cases
reported. Pneumonia still exacts, a
big toll in Wisconsin, with 2,201
deaths during the year. This dis
ease has been made reportable.

KNOWS VALUE OF FEEDING

B. Hirsch, a farmer, cf the town
OF Washhurn. knows the value of
scientific feeding when it comes to
increasing he production of his
dairy cows an da record just made
by the Chequamegon Creamery
where Mr.. Hirsch disposes of his
butterfat, shows that Mr.. Hirsch has
three grade cows which produce an
average of 391.06 pounds of butter
fat per cow per year. Two of the
cows are grade Guernsey and the
other is a grade Holstein. Mr.
Hirsch weighs and tests his milk
and feeds according to the scientific
scale, which accounts for the pro.
duction of dairy products.
