Arrangements Completed
For Community Fair

MADISON, Wis.,, July 12-Wiscon-
sin cheese grades are meeting with
favor in eastern markets and New
York and Philadelphia dealers are
"free in their praise of the Wiscon-
sin grading" which has materially
improved" the quality of Badger
cheese, according to the statement
of Roy C. Potts, Specialist in Charge,
Division of Dairy and Poultry Pro-
ducts, of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, in letter received to-
day by the Wisconsin Department +
Markets.
Mr.. Potts, the leading dairy expert
Of the Federal Government, says in
letter from Washington, d. c.,
dated July s.:
"Last week l spent one day at each
of the markets Boston, New York
and Philadelphia. While at these
markets, took occasion to inquire
of our representatives regarding the
effect of the Wisconsin grades ON
American cheese on the marketing
Of cheese in these markets. Our
representative at Philadelphia in
formed me that a few instances of
this grading had been called to his
attention. However, the wholesale
dealers and jobbers in cheese gave
particular attention to the Wiscon-
sin grades and insisted upon obtain
ing No. cheese. An instance was
brough to my attention Of sale
made to wholesale grocer of Wis
consin cheese which, when delivered,
contained cheese branded No. 2. The
grocer on noting the No. z brand, re-
fused to accept the cheese, insisting
that his trade required No. /. If
the cheese had not been branded in
this instance, the grocer undoubted-
ly would have been obliged to accept
No. 2 cheese. In these Eastern mar
kets, quality is becoming more and
more an important factor with the
trade, and high quality goods, such
as your Wisconsin "Fancy" cheese,
are readily sold at premium over
No. i. 1t should be Of interest to
you to know that the Wisconsin sys-
tenn of grading cheese has been re-
ceived with so much favor in the
Eastern markets, and should result in
Wisconsin producers obtaining prem
iums for their highest quality cheese.
Our representative on the New York
market stated that the wholesale
cheese receivers are free in their
praise of the Wisconsin grading and,
while occasionally they taken slight
exception to the grading that, on
the whole, they consider it in line
with the quality of the cheese. The
dealers state that since the grading
of Wisconsin cheese has become effec-
tive, the quality of Wisconsin cheese
has materially improved and ship
ments are more uniform in quality
than formerly"

TO DISCUSS MATTERS

An invitation has been extended
by the Board of Directors of the
Benoit Creamery Association to the
Board of Directors of the Mason
Creamery Association to hold a
meeting at Benoit on Friday evening,
July 21st, at s o'clock P. M. to dis
cuss plans or the grading of cream
and to otherwise improve the pro-
duct of the two institutions, the OBJ
ject being through cooperation to
get better prices for the butter manu-
featured by the two institutions.
Farmers are to be urged to produce
better cream and thus increase the
value of the product being marketed.
MADISON, July 1.-THE house
wife who intends to- can cherries
should do so now as this is the time
when the movement of cherries is
the geratest of the season, is the adj
vice of the Department of Markets
contained in statement issued today.
According to this statement the
cherry crop in Wisconsin has reach
ed unprecedented proportions. 5000
pickers have been engaged to do
the picking in Door County which is
harvesting the largest crop in the
history of its cherry industry. It is
safe to say that the quality of the
crop was never better. Two main
lines have been added to the equip
ment Of the Sturgeon Bay cherry
cannery to take care of this years
crop and it is expected that at least
two-thirds of the crop will be canned.
This cherry cannery has the distinc-
tion of being the largest in the world.
It is estimated that this years crop
will reach the million and one-half
dollar mark and the cannery associa-
ton is putting on large publicity
campaign advertising Sturgeion Bay
brand cherries, the greatest effort be-
ing centered ON the Chicago market.
Door County also expects the larg-
est crop of apples ever produced.
This crop is going to be marketed
through the associations warehouse
and purchasers will be able to get
either bulk, bushel basket or barrel
stock and they viii be in position
to quote prices by August l. 1t is
interesting to note that Door County
is practically in its infancy as an
apple producing section. The quality.
of its fruit is as free from scab and
other disease as any New York or
western apples are and there is no
reason why large portion of apples
consumed in Wisconsin cannot be pur-
chased within our own state.

here and left Ashland at o'clock in
the morning in order to get here and
make a talk and still maintain his
speaking schedule which had been ar
ranged frona Madison.
William r. Morgan is the kind OF
a man the people of Mason like to
meet, for he is straight forward in
his talk and he offers a solution to
the burdens of the farmers and the
laboring men which he expects to
carry out if elected Governor.
Mr.. Morgan comes from the humb-
Ter walks of life. He worked his
way through school as section hand
and quarry laborer. He was born
on farm in Calumet county.
Two years ago he made the race
for Attorney General and was elect
ed by an overwhelming majority. It
was the first time Mr.. Morgan has
ever held Office. During the two
years he has won the name as the
original Trust buster" for he sue
ceeded in breaking up number Of
combinations in restraint of trade,
and investigating more than two hum
.dred other large corporations.
If elected William J. Morgan will
make an attempt to relieve the farm
ers and others of the state of the
large tax burdens with which they
are now confronted and those who
know Mr.. Morgan know that he will
endeavor to do what he says.
Mason was glad to meet the can
didata for Governor and his trip
here won for him many votes.

LOVE OF HIGH LIVING
CAUSES MUCH CRIME,


Albany, Jan. 22.-The desire of
every one ito occupy an orchestra
seat in life" during a period of fast
costly living, the motor car which
facilities quick getaway prohibi-
tion which has bred disrespect of
law and to some extent the war with
the education in gun practice that it
gave were assigned by Governor Mill
er in an interview tonight as the
principal causes of the prevailing
crime wave.
The Governor was asked about the
subject because earlier in the day he
had sent to the Legislature a report
showing to what extent he had ex-
ercised his prerogative of executive
clemency during the first year of his
Administration. He has been very
sparing, indeed some have called
plications for pardons, reprieves and
communications
Two pardons, after the full term
had been served by the persons par
don; 3 reprieves and IL commuta-
tions-these figures complete the
Governors record. The record of his
predecessor, Governor Smith, was %

FREIGHT RATES.

The following letter from Secretary
Beaman regarding freight rates will
be interesting to all shippers.
The reduced freight rates be-
come effective Jan. 18th from the ter
ritory East of Pittsburg, the rates
West of Pittsburg were not under at
tack, but we expect to file COM
plant against these rates in the very
near future.
The rates to become effective Jan.
18th are known as class rates. We
are now working on the special or
commodity rates and they should be
filed with the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Washington about
Feb. 1st. Therefore, if you contem-
plate purchasing goods for delivery
after Jan. 18th, I suggest that you
take into consideration the reduction
in rates under what you are now
paying. OF course, the reduction will
effect the prices.
When this Association undertook
to reduce these rates no one believed
it was possible, but the victory has
been won and the credit is due en-
tirely to the business men who sup
ported the organization. In addition
to the above work going on, we are
now fighting the proposed increase in
rates from Virginia to North Caro-
lima. Within the next few days the
railroads will attempt to increase all
rates from the West to North Caro-
lima. This of course we intend to fight
to the bitter end. We have also filed
complaints for shippers against the
following roads: Virginia Carolina
Southern, East Carolina, Washing
ton, Vendemere and the Kinston
Carolina in an effort to relieve the
shippers of Determinations
The Association has demonstrated
beyond a doubt what can be done by
organization and cooperation.
I regret to advise We are not re-
ceiving the moral and financial sup
port we should. Obviously we cannot
continue this work without financial
aid.
If we are successful in collecting
dues that are now on our books, it
is our purpose to begin at once the
auditing of freight bills from which
source I feel you will secure more
than your dues in return. On the
other hand if we are not successful
in collecting back dues, it will be nee
essary to dissolve the association
which I feel you do not want done,
especially in view of the results we
have already achieved and the i'm
portant work that is now in front of
us.
Trusting you can see your way
clear to remit us a check immediate
ly, am
Yours truly,

FIGHT
ON DYER MEASURE.

Washington, Jan. 22.-Democratic
members of the house at caucus to-
night agreed to wage fight to the
finish on the Dyer anti-lynching bill.
A resolution was unanimously adopt
ed assailing the measure as viola
tive of the constitution" and one that
would have a tendency of increasing
lynching rather than of reducing the
crime.
Those who addressed the caucus,
members reported, without excep-
tion attacked the bill and urged the
Democrats to stand solidly in oppo-
sition to it.
The resolution adopted follows:
"Be it resolved by the Democrats
