The second annual tour of the Wis
consin Press Association came to a
successful termination at Madison
Monday evening.
The tour, extending as it did over
nearly 400 miles through the most
scenic and pictureque section of the
Badger state, including the Berkshire
Hills of Wisconsin, whose beauty and
grandeur are unexcelled, was a
source of instruction and information
to every member of the party, the
more so since in many places natural

tention and admiration of the trave-
1ers.
Enroute from Platteville to Min
eral Point we had the pleasure to
visit Wisconsin's first capitol, where
Wisconsin's first legislature met in
October, 1886, while that same even
ing final roundup meeting was
held in the new state capitol at Madi-
son, one Of the architectural monu-
ments of the United States. It is a
far step from Belmont to Madison,
but it typifies Wisconsin's progress in
agriculture, manufacturing educa-
ton, commerce and industry, and in
this forward march on the highway
of civilization the newspaper men of
the state have played an important
role

1.-THE Inquiring Reporter" A re-
porter is sent out on the streets to
ask given question every day from
the average man Or woman. On
Saturday, July 8, the question asked
by the "inquiring reporter'' was:
What state do you like best for
touring?" The reporter stood on
Michigan Avenue at Ontario Street
and asked five passing motorists to
answer this question. Of the five
one said that Maryland appealed to
him the most, another said the state
of New York, and the other three
said Wisconsin. What they said
about Wisconsin was interesting and
so we print their statements below:

"Not only did kindness and inter-
est characterize the entertainment
which Madison Woman's Clubs pro-
vided for the wives of county editors
on the state tour, Monday night, but
artistry as well. The dainty appetiz-
ing supper which was served to us
in the home economics building was
the best of the entire Journey" said
Mrs. Georgia Hyde, mother of Prof.
Grant M. Hyde Of the journalism de-
partment of the university, today.
She was one of the women who went
on the entire tour of the Wisconsin
Press association.
Cold and weary OF sightseeing, the
party of about SO women were taken
to the Home Economics building of
the university and given a hot buffet
supper.
They ate at small tables, and their
hostesses, members of the women's
clubs of the city, mingled with them
as they mingled with each other.
Escorted to Lathrop parlors, they
sank down in the comfortable arm
chairs and Miss Glenore Cation sang
to them, accompanied by Mrs. Georg-
ia Hyde. They encored enthusiast
| ically each of the two groups of her
songs.
Prof. Nellie Kedzie Jones, state
leader of home demonstration agents
told them of the work in home eco
nomics being done throughout the
state by the agricultural extension
department. Child-feeding, sewing.
millinery, cooking, the service of the
extension department of the univer-
sity to the small community were
subjects which failed to engross the
interest of no one of them. The Wis
itors gave a rising vote of thanks to
| their hostesses.
Mrs. Andrew Hopkins was in
charge of the entire entertainment
of the women. To her is due in
large measure the tasteful and ade-
Quate hospitality extended to the
! women.

it had been used as a home for the

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 By AAsnciated Press


 New Orleans, February 10.-It was a session of small declines and ad- vances in cotton today with the net change on the close an advance or to 10 points Early downswings put the list 12 to Is points under the final prices of yesterday while later reactions carried it s to IS points above, March traded down to 15.SOc, up to 1612c and closed at 1603c. The opening was active and toward mid session it was firm market with traders on the long side aggressive, but the afternoon was tame.
 The early declines were partly due to an indifferent Liverpool but were mainly caused by highly unfavorable reports over private wires of the mill situation in New England where it was said that the strike over wage reductions were spreading. One rumor which was not confirmed, was that the largest mills in New England had become involved in the strike.
 From the first decline there was a recovery and rise to the highest levels of the day on buying in sym pathy with the rapid rise in wheat and in stocks but much of this strength was lost when the weekly statistics were put on the boards. making mill takings for the week only Ill 900 bales against 252 900 th:s week last year and 200.000 this week two years ago. Prices fell back to about the closing level of yesterday and made only slight recoveries thereafter.
