SOMETHING NEW

The first inspection of poultry
noOAs gappiying eggs to hatchenes
for the production of day-old chicks
was made January 10 by an inspector
from the Wisconsin department of
markets. This flock belongs to J. H.
Durfee of Madison, Wisconsin, and
was found to meet the reproduction,
health standard, and other require
ments as agreed on by hatchery OPP
orators, flock owners and represen-
tatives of the state department, at
the public hearings held recently at
Fort Atkinson and Ripon
The plan of insuring the quality of
baby chicks through state inspection
of hatchery focks is something new
in the "chick" business and Wisconsin
is the first state to put such a pro-
ject into effect. Any hatchery may
apply for inspection and if the hatch
cry and the focks supply its Matching
eggs are found to be of the required
quality it is placed on an accredited
list and given the right to use, sub
ject to the state regulations, the Wis
consin standard chick mark on ship
ments Of baby chicks. Mr. Lackie of
the state department, who has charge
of the inspection work left for Fort
Atkinson today to inspect the Mueller
Cory plant. This concern is the first
commercial hatchery to apply for
state inspection

Hayward's Philosophy
E. F. Hayward, Conover Wis.
The Winner

'Tis not hard to pick a winner, you
can tell him at glance,
He who happened to be lucky at some
simple game of chance;
He wrinkles up his forehead to make
you think he's wise;
The hat he wore but yesterday is now
too small in size.
He talks about "his system" which
he figured out alone,
But if it had not been for Tuck, this
guy would not be known.
You can also pick the losers, they are
filled with ifs and 'ands.'
They prate about their wisdom,
though they show you empty
hands.
They should have won, and only lost
because of some misnap;
They'd make you feel some crooked
deal had caught them in trap
But there's another type of sport,
though very rare indeed,
Who sits and smiles nor makes a kick
although they have him 'treed; ;
We do not meet him often, just once
in a long while,
The loser who can whistle, and greet
you with smile.

First nconfidencen Man.

The phrase confidence man, the
name for men who live by their wits
at the expense of other peoples gul-
Utility, had its origin in unique char
acter in the New York of so years ago
He was a Wel-groomed and gentle
manly looking rogue, we are told, who
would frequent the drinking houses
and other places where men would
congregate, strike up ain acquaintance
with a prosperous stranger and after
short While remark: Have you
sufficient confidence in me, sir, to lend
me So until tomorrow" Nobody ever
heard Of anyone who recovered his
five spot And soon tbs unique crooks
activities got into the newspapers,
where he was called "the confidence
man." 1t was not long before the
same name came to be applied to all
Of his brothers in crime who worked
with suave manner and a winning
smile instead Of jimmy and crow
bar.

NEW PEACE DOLLARS

The new peace" dollars, the coin
ing of which was recently agreed up
on by the treasury department, are
now in circulation
The peace dollar is the first change
in the design of the United States
standard dollar since 1878. The de-
sign will be used for the next TWEEN
ty-fve years unless by action of con-
gress the design is changed. It is
rumored, however, that the dollars
may be recalled.
: Half a million peace dollars were
coined under the 1922 date. The coin
has the head of the Goddess Of Lib.
erty On one side, and above the head
is the word Liberty" in a semi-cir.
Gle. The American coin phrase, "In
God We Trust" and the date 1922 are
below the head.
On the reverse side is the American
eagle in relief, standing on noun
tain pinacle, clutching an olive
branch and facing the rays of the
rising sun from below The word
Peace" is inscribed beneath the eagle
and around it are the words United

STATE EMPLOYMENT
OFFICES AID FARMER
List of Placements for Last Sea-
son Shows State Work APP
preciated by the Labor
Employers

The state maintains eleven public
(free) employment offices, one in each
of the following cities; Ashland, Green
Bay, Lacrosse, Madison, Milwaukee,
Oshkosh, Racine. Rhinelander, Sheboy-
gan, Superior and Wausau.
These offices are ready to serve
the farmer as well as the city man.
Last year, they made 6,4S4 verified
placements for farm hands We have
received many letters from farmers,
expressing satisfaction with these men
who were furnished by the employ
ment Offices.
If you need help on your farm this
year, we suggest that you get in touch
with the employment office nearest
you If you prefer, you can visit the
office and can then select your own
man, or you can place your order by
letter You can also place your order
with your county agent and ask him
to get you a man through the employ
ment offices.
Many men are already registering
for farm work next spring. The en-
ployment Offices are also in touch with
men wishing to rent farms, work on
shares or manage dairy herds
In placing your order, be as speci-
fic as possible, be certain to state
the wages you will pay, your prefer
ences as to age, nationality and ex-
perience, and when you will want your
man. Men will not travel unless they
have pretty definite idea as to the
wage they will get and the conditions
of employment. Likewise, do not fail
to state exactly how men can get to
your farm, whether you have te1e-
phone, etc. If you live very far from
an employment Office, you are most
certain of getting help, if you will
advance the fare, to be taken out of
the first months salary In such
case, the employment office protects
you by checking the mans baggage to
you.
No efforts will be spared by the
employment Offices to get you the kind
of man you want. AS taxpayer, you
are helning to maintain these public
e~4nlayn-- Offices. Why-not take adj
vantage of the service they have to
offer. If you do not need help your
self, tell your neighbors about the
service that these Offices can render.

PROSPECTS ARE,GOOD

A good attendance OF the SJOck-
holders of the V. Krefl Manufacturing
Company attended the adjourned an
nual meeting for election of directors
held at the plant on Tuesday evening.
All were much interested in hearing
Mr.. Krefl give an extensive deScrlp-
ton of the article being manufactured,
the Victor Buffer for automobiles, and
have the details of manufacture, in
Guiding many special tools, plainly ex-
planned and demonstrated. After this
had been done, the machines were set
in motion and the operators demon
strated their action when at work.
The business report was then read
in the business Office and showed the
concern in good condition with con-
siderable material on hand and orders
for 1920 sets on file. The stockholders
signified their faith in the business by
further subscribing for additional
stock which will give the plant the
necessary working capital, and full
force of workmen will soon be placed
at work.
A board of nine directors was then
elected consisting of Chas. FL. Wiegand
Chas. H Adams, Robt. Persohn, A. J..
De Meyer, Fred Behn, v. Krefl, w. H.
Bent, J. N. Burke and N. M. Emmons.
From these were elected Chas. H.
Wiegand president, w. H. Bent vice
president, Fred Behn, secretary and
treasurer at meeting held Wednes.
day night.
Mr.. Krefl, former president had pre-
viously resigned the position and will
henceforth give his attention solely to
the plant management.
1t is impossible at present, to accur-
ately estimate just what the location
OF this industry in Eagle River may
mean to the future prosperity of the
town. Some of the most successful
| business enterprises in the United
States have started without the pros
poets that look to be in store for this
one. To say the least, Eagle River has
more than $4,000 in new and perma-
nent Improvements ove2 what it had
six months ago and the citizens should
do all in their power to help make it a
| success.

TOTALLY DESTROYED

The home of Mr. and Mrs. w. j.
Wilson on Mcdonald lake, near the
Red Oak resort was totally destroyed
by fire early Monday morning. Mr..
Wilson was at work short distance
away and looked up about $50 that
morning to see smoke pouring out
from every part Of the building. Being
alone he was unable to save any of the
contents, the fire having gained such

which may include an outside
speaker. Further details of the
significance of the event will be

MORE RESIDENCES

The east two blocks of the fair
ground site was sold this week to G.
T. Bond who will dispose of thsan -
residence lots. We understand that the
greater number of the twenty-four lots
has already been spoken for by buy
ers who will put up creditable homes
there the coming summer. It is an
ideal location for homes and the fair
association did wisely in turning them
over to relieve the scarcity of conven-
lent building sites in the main part Of
town.

of Villas county and of Eagle River
in particular, as Finn Lawler, as he
first came here in 1869 and for several
years thereafter was in close touch
with many Of the first pioneers. 1t is

him by those who preceded him.

NATION HIGH LOST
IN OVERTIME PLAY
Stein Threw Basket and Tied the
Score In Last Minute-Five
Minute Overtime Play
Won for Eagle, 1913

In one of the fastest games Of bas-
ketbau ever played on the local floor
the heavier and more rangy Nation
quint was beaten Is to Is last Friday
1t was a wonderful game to witness.
BY virtue of some splendid long range
shooting by Hemingway and because
Of some hard luck by Eagle River the
visitors were able to build up lead
Of three points at the end of the first
half Another long one by Hemingway
gave them a lead of five before Eagle
Highs splendid team work began to
count. After the rally started in the
last ten minutes of play NATION never
got a chance at the basket as the ball
was on the locals half of the floor
most Of the time. Belongy's floor work
was far superior to that at Crandon,
and considering that he was opposed
by Mattoons experienced and crack
guard, Meagher, the two baskets
which he garnered are much to his
credit. The critical moment in the
game was at the point where the
score stood IA to IS in favor of Mat
toon with about one minute to play.
A foul was called on Boyer and Stein
faced the basket to make the free
throw If he failed the game was lost,
if he found the ring there was
chance to win by over time play.
The throw was made and two min
ute interval was given before playing
off the tie. 1t was during this period
that the locals superior team work
was plainly in evidence. Morgan had
learned how to cover Hemingway, SO
that with that chance gone, the visi-
tors must needs get their basket by
a close up shot which they were I'M
able to develop enough team work to
do Numerick, Bent and Morgan as
well as Stein and Belongy deserve
credit for their hard and consistent
playing Next Friday the team plays
a return game at Elcho No games
have been scheduled as yet for the
10th and 18th of February but it is
hoped that arrangements can be made
to play some strong teams.

The above article on early day his
