We would like to give the Edger-
toni anesville game of last Saturday,
which resulted in a Z to tie, big
write up, but lack of space forbids. It
was a game in which the lighter Ed
gerton team showed splendid training,
fine generalship and the right sort of
craftsmanship. The injury to Guinness
made a difference, but the team played
consistent game showing splendid
head work. Edgerton is still an unde-
feated team and will meet Fort Atkin-
son November 18th.
-Roundy says: stIt is no mistake
that abe Edgerton team this year is
one of the best four high school teams
in Wisconsin. That know. In Spike
and Guinness they have two players that
Wisconsin should get in touch with at
once. Spike has everything Williams
had in his high school days, and then

The State Marketing Department
in the prairie Farmer" of Oct. II has
lengthy article on its relations with
the Milk Producers Cooperative Mar
keting Co., Chicago. The situation is
stated thus: 'The company is an Illi-
nois concern and has never obtained a.
license to do business as foreign COR
poration in Wisconsin. The law re-
uuires such license and failure to obey
this statute entails two consequences:
(a) Any officer, director, agent, en-.
ployee or other representative in the
state is subject to a $500 penalty so
long as the corporation continues not
to be properly licensed; (b) All con-
tracts made by the company while it is
not licensed whether those contracts
are to be enforced at once or in the
future-are void and can not even be
assigned to new company nor used by
the old corporation after it becomes.
licensed. See the case of Allen VS..
Milwaukee, 1923 Wis. 678, in which the.
foreign corporation obtained license
two days after it had made the contract
and before any work had been done
under it. The Supreme Court of Wis
consin nevertheless held that the con-
tract was void when made. Cd The
department has offered its assistance to
the company in organizing upon law
full basis and has pointed out the mat
tiers wherein the company is at present.
violating the statutes of Wisconsin and
the consequences thereof. ~ The de-.
partment has served complaint, and
held hearing thereon, to determines
whether the enforcement of the service
charge at Beloit shall be allowed to
continue or shall be ordered stopped as
an unfair method of competition against
farmers who are not under contract
