tCRIC ACID is
CHEAP EXPLOSIVE
FOR LOCAL FARMERS

We are urging that all farmers get
in touch with their town chairman il
it is convenient for them to do So"
declares w. j. Rogan, county agent
and that they put in their order for
picric acid, which is a cheap explosive
for Marathon county farmers. Up to
the present time we have not heard
from town chairmen but it is hoped
that they will send in their towns
allotment at an early date. Each in
dividual is entitled to 100 pounds at
Ill cents pound or $11.70 a 100
pounds. There is a possibility of get
ting from 10000 to 10000 pounds
more for Marathon county if orders
come in promptly. This would mean
that each individual would be entitled
to more than 100 pounds" Mr.. Ro-
gan also says that this distribution
OF picric acid will mean great saw
ing to farmers.

and fed under republican rule; the
insistence that local government shall
be restored to the communities of
the state and that bureaucratic ten

VANDALISM MENACE
TO PARK PROPERTY

Unfortunately the parks of Wau-
sau seem to be targets of youthful
vandalism. Attractive shrubs and
flowers recently planted have been
uprooted and particularly this has
been confined to Yawkey park, be-
tween Franklin and Grant streets on
Fourth street. City authorities are
doing all in their power to protect
park plots and it is up to parents
and citizens to help also. When Wau-
sau obtains such a fine acquisition
as this, everyone should cooperate
to eliminate vandalism such as Is now
being experienced.

When a nation goes dry there is
