TO WRITE AGRICULTURAL
HISTORY OF RUSK co.

Paul A. Exc, of Bruce, a student of
agricultural economics at the state
university, is in Ladysmith and vicin-
ity interviewing many old settlers and
obtaining information and data for
an agricultural history of Rusk coun-
ty.
He is doing the work under the SUI
pervision of the University of WiscOn-
sin and the State Historical Society.
The object of this work is to tell the
story of how the pioneers came to
Rusk county and turned wilderness
of stumps into productive dairy farms.
The book will be of especial interest
to Rusk county people, as well as 9th
er sections of Wisconsin having SIM
liar agricultural problems.
Mr. Exc is doing this as part of his
university work and at his own ex-
pense. Any help to obtain the facts
will be greatly appreciated by him.
This is another chance to boost for
Rusk county.

DECIDE ON CENTRAL
CITY HEATING PLANT

Mayor Luell stated positively yester-
day that the central heating plant for
city buildings and auxiliary pumping
station for the city water department,
which the council has been consider
ing as an important protective and
economic plan for the public welfare
in the matter of fire protection and
heating of public buildings, is to be
put in.
Estimates on plans and specifica-
tions had to be revised somewhat on
account of a Pinch wall being need
ed, instead of an eight-inch wall, as
at first considered. The building,
which is to be in the river bank, in
the rear of the fire station, will not
he large or expensive, as it is esti-
mated that a building 26x40 will be
large enough to accommodate the boil
er and the coal vault. The city owns
a good boiler of sufficient capacity
for the purposes intended, and a good
steam pump, and the plant will be
close to the old city well. The new
improvement is expected to be a great
convenience as well as protection in
case Of fire of large proportions.

CYCLE WRECKS CART;
RIDER SPEEDS AWAY

Mrs. Anna KeSan and her son were
slightly injured and their light wag-
on was demolished Tuesday afternoon
when a speeding motorcycle ran into
the rear end of the wagon Mrs.
Kesan and son were on their way to
their home AZ miles northeast Of La
dysmith and were a short distance
south of the Flunker cheese factory
when the man on the motorcycle ran
into them.
Both occupants of the wagon were
thrown to the road with the wagon
overturned onto them and the team
started to run, dragging the woman
and boy. The latter clung tightly to the
reins, however, and managed to stop
the horses. The motorcycle rider was
unhurt and his machine was only
slightly damaged. A passing mOtorist
stopped, but seeing no one was seri-
ously hurt and as the motorcycle rider
stated that he would pay all damages,
drove on. Mrs. Kesan states that as
she was taking down the license num-
ber of the motorcycle, as advised by
the mOtOrist who had driven on, the
man who collided with the wagon
grabbed pencil and paper from her
with such force as to cut cash in
the palm of her hand with the pen
Gil, mounted his machine and sped
away.

all doubt about being a candidate for
denomination for the Office he now
holds when he stated Wednesday that
his that is in the ring" His nomina-
ton papers have been in circulation
this week.
Mr.. Falge has been district attorney
of Rusk county three consecutive
terms-six years-and is willing to
stand on his official record in seeking

most genial man and has a host of
friends among the people of the coun-
ty who respect law and order

ALL SET FOR PAVING;
FAST WORK EXPECTED

The work of putting in the seven
blocks of street paving will begin to-
day, it was stated yesterday.
1t is expected that the work will
proceed much faster than the paving
work done last summer, as more ma
chine power will be used. w. d. Nor
gan will do the excavating with his
big power excavator He has had a
special shovel known as a skinner" :"
made for this shallow job, and the de-
lay in getting the new shovel and re-
pairs on the stone crusher has held up
the work for a short time.
Robt. Ohlfs, the contractor, has a
larger concrete mixer for this job
than was used on the first paving, and
one especially adapted to paving work.
The mixing and pouring will be done
by the one machine and thus save
much time labor, and trucking The
crusher is set up on the Ducklow lots
at the west city limits
A considerable quantity Of crushed
rock is already available, so it is not
from this source. Thirty-fve hundred
barrels of cement will be needed for
this job and nearly third, or 800
barrels, were on hand last week. Con-
siderable difficulty was experienced
in obtaining cement by Contractor
Ohlfs but he thinks the worst is over
in this respect.

Strikes Out Seventeen Men In
Win For Rice Lake
Sunday
COLORED TEAM
ALSO WINS HERE
Travelling Negro Professionals Show
Wares Not Much Better Than
Local Team Dis
played

Striking out II Ladysmith batters,
Johnson, Rice Lakes pitcher in Sun
days baseball game in this city, was
a big factor in winning a 2 to 1 game.
His ''spitball'' was an enigma which
several of tie local men could not
solve. This makes three wins for Rice
Lake this season in four games with
Ladysmith.
But it was a good game of ball and
the fans enjoyed it. A wet, slow dia-
mOnd and field undoubtedly accounted
for some of the four errors against
the visitors and three against the To-
Gals. The visitors made four hits and
their luck in placing them won the
game Riley pitched like a fiend, but
the absence of his old catcher, "Jigs"
DOnahue, appeared to make a differ
ence. He put plenty of smoke on the
ball and never worked harder.
Four new men in the lineup
Bob" Austin on third, Muldowney in
center field, Hamblin in left field, and
Humber in right field, added an item
of speculation, but they played their
positions well, though Hamblin, in for
mer years a heavy hitter, proved weak
at the bat The fans would probably
have had little more confidence in
HOule, DOnahue and Stephan, recent
ly annexed by the New Ulm, Mimi,
team. than in the new players.
Towers. first man up for LadySmith,
made the only score for Ladysmith,
and that was on an error. He hit a
twO-bagger to right field and when
Vebber followed with grounder to
r. Johnson, short, he scored when
Johnson Overthrew first 1t looked en-
eOuraging for the locals but the Wis
itOrs tightened up and would not al
low another run. Many comments
were heard on Hayden's errorless in
field work
Rice Lake scored it's winning run
in the fourth inning on a combination
Of two passes, a sacrifice hit and a
single.
The rOoters were out in force, but
the crowd in general was smaller than
usual. Pitcher Johnson received lot
of attention from the Ladysmith root
ers but seemingly it did not affect him
as much as the attention given UNI
pire Nick Christman, who talked back
to them

FOUR-YEAR-OLD FALLS
DOWN 4O-FOOT WELL

Failing to the bottom of a well for
ty-feet deep was the unusual and pain
full experience of little Tommy Baro-
nowski, four-year-old son of farmer
residing about seven miles southwest
of Ladysmith, Friday evening.
1t was just through luck that he
was found in time to save his life.
His mother happened to be passing by
the well when she heard the child's
cries and located him in the deep well.
Luckily the well was dry one.
AS soon as rescued from his pecul-
lar position he was brought to Lady
smith and a doctor found that his in
juries consisted of a cut on the head,
a broken rib, and bruises on hips and
back He was unconscious when ex-
amined, but is improving rapidly at
the hospital.

VOTE SITE FOR
BROOKLYN SCHOOL
Also Decide To Build Four
Room SchOolhOuse.-Site
Selected

Brooklyn is nearer to realizing her
desired school building, since the ad-
journed school district meeting held
at the gym Monday night, and if the
whole program is not knocked over at
the second adjourned meeting to be
held a week from next Monday night,
a bond issue will probably be the out
come that will provide the cash with
which the proposed building may be
erected.
The move for a building was dis
tinctIy advanced when the meeting
authorized a tax levy to purchase lots
8 and 10, block Z, Menasha Wooden
Ware Company's Third addition, at
a cost of $4,000 This was the site
reported upon as being the most de-
sirable, by a committee of three
Brooklynites. after looking over sew
eral on the east side of the river. The
proposed building site is on the north
side of Menasha-av. and directly Op-
posite the residence of Elmo InaIbnit.
The lots are acre lots, owned by Mich
aelsOn & Hughes, and the price OF
$4,000 was an eye-Opener to many at
the meeting who are not acquainted
with Brooklyn real estate values,
though the Brooklyn people appeared
to think that the price is reasonable.
Size of Building
Then came the question of the kind
of school building needed in this grow
ing Brooklyn section of the city, which
many claim will be the bOn-ton resi-
Dental part of the city in the years
to come A two-rOOm, a three-rOom,
a four-room, and an eightroom build
ing was proposed or at least talked
of, but it appeared to be rather I'M
certain just what the needs OF the
section are in this matter. The school
population of this part of the district
is 127 and it is believed that it will
increase rapidly with the general pop
ulation in the next few years and the
people of Brooklyn say that the mis-
takes made in building inadequate
buildings in past years should not be
repeated when their building is pro-
vided for that the present population
should not he taken as a basis OF es-
innate in considering the size OF
schoolhOuse that the present school
buildings, all of which are on the west
side of the river, are Overcrowded and
that pupils from the west side can
attend school on the east side.
The need of Junior highschool
building for the city, generally admit
ted on both sides of the river, some
what complicates the situation because
it will limit the amount of money that
can be levied for the Brooklyn build
ing. the Junior high being now press
ing need The school district clerk
suggested an estimate of $4,000 for
building in Brooklyn and probably
$4,000 for a Junior high, which could
be built onto the east end of the high
school gymnasium, making the pur-
chase of site unnecessary.
Finally, motion to build four
room school building in Brooklyn pre-
vailed.
The clerk read his annual report at
this meeting and it was voted to have
it published in the Ladysmith papers.

500 MAY BUILD
TO BIG FALLS
Rumor of Extension of S. P. &
NJ, Reported Acquired
By 500

The presence in the city Tuesday of
Edward Whitman, Minneapolis, chief
engineer of the 500 Line, revived the
report published some weeks ago that
the 500 Line had purchased the Stan
ley, Phillips & Merrill railroad, which
extends from Stanley, in Chippewa
county to Walrath, in Rusk county,
but he did not confirm or deny the re-
port of a sale.
The extension survey of the road
would take it through Glen Flora and
northeast to Big Falls, distance of
only about eleven miles from it's pres
ent northern terminus.
Mr. Whitman is an old personal
friend of T. c. Jones, of this city.
Power Company Extension
The right of way for the transmits
sion line of the Lake Superior District
Power Co. north from Big Falls has
been cut out to the Gus Mitchell farm
on the west side of the Flambeau riv-
er, where steel tower material has
been assembled.
The railroad extension from Big
Falls to Cedar Rapids by the power
company is expected to follow as a
matter of course, because it is be-
lieved that the company's development
of the Cedar Rapids power will not be
long delayed. The preliminary sur
vey of the proposed line is on the west
side of the river
There is considerable opposition
among the proponents of the North
ern Lakes park to the transmission
line going through the park area, be-
cause if the right of way for the line
is cut out four rods wide, or even mar
rover, it will greatly detract from the
natural beauty of the park. The peo-
pie interested in the park proposition
will ask that the line deviate and
miss the park.

PICNIC A SUCCESS
About 200 Farmers and Citi-
zens Enjoy Picnic at Big
Seven Ranch

The Chamber of COmmerce-farmer
picnic, held Wednesday at the Big
Seven Ranch, six miles northeast of
Ladysmith, was attended by a crowd
of men, women and children, estimated
to number 200.
After the basket supper, ice cream
was served in abundance. A male
quartet then sang a couple of fine
songs, and T. G. Jones spoke on the
development Of the Big Seven Ranch
Five years ago this land was a mat
of slashings with raspberry bushes as
high as a horses back; now through
the liberal application of the Rusk
county plan, of burning and seeding,
this debris has been reduced about 75
per cent, and in it's place two tons per
acre of the finest clover and timothy
is growing Among the few remain
ing logs and stumps there is big crew
of settlers busy with their scythes
making hay there for winter feed.
One more fire and hundreds of acres
will be practically cleared on this
farm. Mr.. Jones told of the early
struggles on this farm; of how there
was no road by the place and the land
was shown by driving through the
center of the farm on very rough
road The development of this land
since that time has been marvellous
and the cost has been very low, said
