Water Bonds Dis
Cussed at Meeting
Good Proposition Is Offered and Town
Should Take Advantage of OPP
p%Ortunity to Install Mains.

More than 30 representative citizens
of Saratoga were present at the meet
ing held at the Town Hall last Friday
evening for discussion of the water
bonds question. NJ. Il. McKillip was
chosen as chairman and all who had
anything to say regarding the proposed
bond issue were given opportunity to
say 1t.
Mayor Winsor spoke at some length,
explaining all details of the agreement
with Messrs. Benwell. Phillips & Co,
of Denver, who have contracted with
the town council to buy the bonds in
case they are voted. He also told
what action had been taken by the
council in the waterworks matter. ex-
planning that no expense of any conse-
quence had been incurred, II il the
vote on the question is not favorable
the town will not be out any money,
and If the bonds are voted il will then
be up to the citizens to meet with the
council n advise as to the best water
system that can be had, for the money
available.
Mr.. McKillip spoke very strongly in
favor of the bonds, telling why the
town would benefit in many ways from
the installation of the system, and if
the sentiment heard at and following
the meeting may be taken as a cri-
%terion, the vote on May 9th will give Il
good majority in favor of the woter
bonds.

.SIL0 PAYS 40 Per

f. L. Luther, Superintendent Wiscon-
sin. Farmers Institutes.
When you make a time deposit at
your bank, you have in mind the M
terest you will collect in u months,
or per cent. When you buy stocks
and bonds, you have in mind dIvl-
dend to be declared, per haps 2 to 8
per cent. In other words, you are
thinning Of the returns you viii get
in terms of interest on the investment
Why not do the same in buying a
silo? Usually silos are thought OF IN
terms of more milk and butter fat,
which in turn, suggests more money,
but q definite sum of money, not as
interest on an investment.
You know that when your banker
promises to pay you or cents on
every dollar you let him use for II
months, you viii get it; but when you
consider going to your banker and
promising you will pay him 6 cents
on every dollar ne will loan you for
y months, you stop to figure where
you will come out. Can you invest
per cent borrowed money in a silo and
expect to make money? Suppose we
do little figuring to find out.
found on the average farm. II takes
10 acres of good corn to fill this silo.
If the corn yields 40 bushels per acre
400 bushels fcorn goes into the silo.
Now compare the feeding value of
the 100 tons of siIage with the value of
the crop had the corn matured and the
stalks been pastured.
The pres ent feeding value of silage
&c oh 10, Inn
$500. Bear in mind that this includes
all the costs of putting the silage in
the silo, or in other words, you should
be able to buy silage from your neigh
Dor at this price. The value of same
feed in terms of mature corn and corn
stalks would be:
Corn, 400 bu. at Soc 5000
10 acres of corn stalks at ST.. 40
Total feeding value $240
In securing these feeding values, the
silage is in the silo from which it will
be fed, but the corn is in the field and
must be husked and cribbed. At five
cents per bushel, husking and cribbing
will be $40, which must be subtracted
from the $240 feeding value of the
corn and stalks in the field, leaving
1920 as the net return. Thus the diff
ference in the feeding value of the
100 tons of silage and the same in
terms of mature corn and corn stalks,
equals $3.50.
The cost of permanent 100 ton silo
is around $500. At per cent, the in
terest on this investment, provided you
found it necessary to borrow the mon
ey from your banker, would be $50,
which should be subtracted from the
difference between the feeding value
of silage and the corn and stalks,
leaving $244. This represents the in
crease in feeding value you can ex-
pect from putting your corn crop in a
silo. Considering it as lump sum, it
isn't so much money, but carrying out
the comparisons of this article, let
us consider it in terms of interest on
the investment A profit of S244 on
an investment of 5000 is more than 40
per cent. Will your banker give you
that much for the use of your money :?
Can you buy any reliable stocks and
bonds and expect the same interest
on investment?

MOTHERS MILK PROTECTS
FROM GERM FOES
NV Science Servicel

New Haven, Mothers milk
acts as an antitoxin and vaccine to.
protect the chemically helpless new
born baby from disease germs accord
ing to Arthur H. Smith fthe Sheffield
Laboratory of Physiological Caemis-
try of Yale University.
"The new born infant is defense
less" he says, mot only physically but
also chemically. His blood lacks that
part known as euglobulin toewhich are
attached those antibodies or chemical
substances which oppose the constant
attack of disease germs. Until pro-
vided with some source of euglobulin,
the baby is at the mercy of the agen-
cies of disease and destruction.
'The chemical laboratories of the
milk glands of the mother are wonder
fully efficient, however. They either
manufacture entirely, or appropriate
for use from the mothers blood, the
euglobulin so urgently needed by the
child For the first two or three days
after birth, the milk is so rich in this
and other proteins that it is often
Shiny in consistency"
just as vaccine and antitoxin are
used to introduce into the blood anti
bodies to fight certain diseases, Mr..
Smiht points out, so the mothers milk
furnishes the substances which give
the child some degree of immunity d.
rectly. Furthermore, it also provides
the mechanism for the acquisition of
the child's future protection.

VIROOUA Wins End PLACE

The Viroqua High School stock
Judging team, composed of Edward
Wroble, Lynn Honaker, and Chris
Hanson, journied down to the State
Fair at Milwaukee last week, "a la
Ford, accompanied by Agricultural
Teacher r. A. Power, and Junior Eek
hardt. The boys competed in the
State ock-judging contest, and near
ly duplicated last years teams stunt,
falling just little short of capturing
first place, but winning second place
by a comfortable margin. The Bell
vile high school won the contest, vi
roqua being a close second. The To-
cal boys beat out some very good
teams, however, winning over such
strong teams as Oshkosh, Waterloo,
New Richmond, Waukesha, Mondovi,
and several others of strong calibre.
Viroqua has the distinction of plac-
ing one of her boys on the State
Championship team that will repre-
sent Wisconsin at the Sioux City In
terstate Fair in two weeks. Lynn
Honaker, by virtue of winning second
highest honors, individually, in all
classes of live stock judged becomes
a member of this distinguished team,
with all expenses paid to Sioux City,
Iowa. Charles Gates of Bellville, and
Everett LaDuke of Gilmanton are the
other two members. Needless to say,
Lynn will again uphold the honor of
Viroqua, when competing in the big
meet in Sioux City.
And incidentally, Viroqua's splen-
did showing reflects great credit upon
the boys Observation-Disclosures
Teacher r. A. Power-who spares no
time or energy in giving them the
best he has.

WILL IRWIN H0NORED
 BY BUSINESS WOMEN
 AT INFORMAL DINNER

''The best architecture in the world is that in this country. and America is just coming Into her own in the line of art" said Will Irwin, the lace of correspondents" in an impromptu talk at the dinner given last night for him by the Business and Profes- sional Women's club.
 He spoke briefly of the things that impressed him in seeing the United States after eight years spent abroad He spoke of visiting a small town in Iowa which had about 10000 inha bi- tants, and of the architecture of the buildings there. This, he said, would be credit to any European city. de- spite the fact that it was said that America knew very little about art.
 Mir. Irwin was introduced by pr. Lola Taylor, president of the organi- zation, and prior to the dinner an in- formal reception was held. Among the various clubs represented were C. N. Wiley, Kiwanis club; William Sadler Jr., Rotary; Vernon Badham, Community; C. l.. Harold, Civic Asso- ciation; w. w. Tartleton, Junior Chamber of Commerce; pr. J. A. Mac Sporran, pr.

Bat son, former county highway engineer, and one of the candidates for com missioner, filed suit for $50,000 against T. c. Mcdonald for alleged slanderous utterances and libelous statements charged to have been made by the defendant regarding the plaintiff during the campaign.
 The statements and publications concerning plaintiff complained of are alleged to have been false, scanda lous, malicious and defamatory to plaintiff and made by the defendant wickedly. intending to injure plain tiff" It is then alleged that they did prejudice and injure the plaintiff in his profession. trade business and
 injured the credit and standing of plaintiff and that he was greatly chagrined."
