A CLOSEUP" VIEW
OF w. A. GANFIELD

VINO Is this courageous man who
goes forth to do battle with that old
Roman in politics-La Toilette?
This question came in over the state
with the Endorsement of w. A. Can
field for United States senator at the
Milwaukee conference on June l. at
tended by 1000 delegates, men and
women, representing every county in
Wisconsin
Folks wondered what. sort of a
chance a college president could have
against Fighting Bob, and now they
are finding a quick, convincing ans
wer in the Garfield campaign, for the
college president has turned out to
be neither mild nor academic, but a
candidate with stiff punch.
Garfield is striking both in personal
appearance and style of oratory. Even
as L1ncoin's appearance excited conf
ment and interest, Ganfeld's appear
ance has become a subject of wide
interest as he goes on in his state
wide tour, which will take him into
all the larger cities and among the
folks out in the corn fields
Almost over night he has risen to
first place in the public interest. As
Garfield rises to address an audience,
ones interest becomes centered in
his peculiar complexion which was
left unusually dark following a nearly
fatal seige of illness when he was a
young man back on the farm of his
father. In one less powerful in per-
sonal appeal, this might prove dis
advantage, but not so with Garfield.
1t seems to draw people close to him
in the first natural touch of sympathy,
sympathy that turns to admiration
as he swings into his speech with
all the enthusiasm and earnestness Of
a big man.
Then there are other touches that
set him apart from most other men.
For instance, those who expect him
to appear in cutaway, winged collar
and heavy trimmed glesses, the usual
picture of a college president, are in

CLAIM BIG
BENEFIT IN
GRADINGSPUDS

That the farmers and dealers in
Wisconsin are financially benefited to
the extent of 100000 by the potato
grading and inspection work is the
statement of B. B. Jones of the Depart
ment of Markets in giving review
of the 1922 potato season. The
figure given is based on compari-
son of prices of potatoes on the Chi
cago market which is the determining
factor in quoting prices for Wiscon-
sin potatoes.
Grading and inspection of potatoes
as carried on under the Department or
Markets has meant much to the state 5
potato reputation and this was reflect
ed the past year in price comparisons
with other states. In past years be-
fore state grading and inspection was
IN vogue in the state, Wisconsin po-
tatoes sold on par with Minnesota
potatoes on the Chicago Market. The
United States Department of Agri-
culture reports show that turnout the
greater part of this past season Wis
consin potatoes brought from to 15c
per cwt. on the Chicago market more
than Minnesota potatoes which were
not protected by compulsory state
grading and inspection such as the De-
partment of Markets carried on in
Wisconsin. An average increased
price of five cents hundred pounds
on the seasons shipments meant ap-
proximately $500, 1000 more to the far

the balance being shipped as U. S.
Grade No. and Ungraded. 1t is esti-
mated that in 1920 before grading
was required only 70 per cent of the
crop was graded as No. /.
About 90 per cent of the states po-
tatoes were shipped to markets in
thirty states of the country. Of the
10 per cent marketed in the state a.
bout one-fourth went to Milwaukee.

"REDEEM WISCONSIN,"
is GANFiELD'S SLOGAN

The Garfield campaign committee
has selected slogan for its candidate.
1t is Redeem Wisconsin. The more
one thinks about this phrase the bet
ter it gets. Redeem Wisconsin seems
not only to remind the voter CONVEX
SAINT with Wisconsin affairs that he
has duty to his state but the slogan
also prompts those not posted on Wis
cons1n conditions with the desire and
curiosity to learn the slogans signif1-
canoe and once those voters learn it
they will be with US. Perhaps you
thlnk you can suggest better one.
But, after You have carefully analysed
your homemade effort, we are of the
OPINION you will concede the suffi-
cheney and patness of Redeem Wis

mers and dealers. In past years Ida
no potatoes sold on the Chicago mar
ket for Is to 90c per cwt. more than
Wisconsin potatoes due largely to the
fact that they had a reputation for
being well graded product. This
past year Wisconsin potatoes sold
nearly on par with Idaho stock The
same general comparison can be made
with Michigan potatoes. Growers and
dealers over the state generally con-
cede that the grading and inspection

A GOOD BUILDING PLAN

We will build fiat building, bunga-
low or house for anyone who owns a
lot that is fully paid for and who can
pay premium of 10 per cent cash on
the cost of the building.
These buildings are financed on a
first and second mortgage plan. The
owner of the property at all times re-
tains title to their property.
We will also put up a bond covering
the cost of construction The purpose
of this bond is to guarantee to the
owner of the land that he will get a
completed building in the specified
contract time, subject to such un-
avoidable delays as strikes, lockouts,
bad weather or non delivery of ma
terial
The bond also protects the owner of
the property from any liens, or judg-
ments resulting from building opera
tiOns. Before the bond is released
there is filed with the bank, the bond
houses, and the owner of the land,
waivers of lien and an affidavit COW
ering all materials used in the con-
struction of the building, also all labor
costs.
Payments on the last mortgages are
as follows: Interest at the rate of 6
per cent or Ga per cent payable semi
annually, the principal payable at the
end of years with the privilege of re-
newal The second mortgage is pay
able monthly including interest and
principal and is renewable at the end
of 80 months.
All building contracts entered into
are as per plans and specifications
which must first be o. KID by the
owner of the property and after so
being o. KID any changes that are
made will be charged extra and must
be paid for in cash when ordered.

A double play saved Zachary in the in

runs for the Sox. In the third, the
SoX went out in order, but in the
fourth Zachary was chased to the
showers after a double. single and
triple had been made, producing one
run.
Washington's only run developed in
the same round, when Harris and
Rice walked and the former scored
on Gosln's timely single to right
center. The SoX got to Francis in the
sixth for four safe drives and two
runs. The visitors final tally went

week. from April 10 to April Il. ac-
cording to a decision said to have

large part of the Polo Grounds.
According to plans. the Giant own
erS will remove the entire bleacher
sections. and in their place extend the
double dccked right and left field
stands leaving an open space in CEN
