by this newspaper, which are with
held at this time for obvious rea-
sons. Those features that we find
do not prove popular will be dropped
and others substituted, with con-
slant effort for improvement. Other
special features will be added as
rapidly as those now started are
perfected.
In short, our effort will be to ap-
peal to every reading taste, and
while the men folk may not care
for the society news the women will
not care to enter the involved SUBJ
jects Of business and finance, while
our hope will be to appease the
reading desires of both, with plenty
to spare.
Watch The Silver State
A campaign for subscriptions
will be inaugurated and at the new
subscription rate of $3.50 per year,
backed up by the kind of a news
paper we intend to publish, we
should be able to provide a list
that will prove beneficial to the adj
vertisers and prove to them that
they can remain out of the adver-
Using columns only to their direct
business and financial detriment,.
By publishing once week, on the
other hand, their advertising APP
preparations will buy sufficient
space to convey real message, dis
played in a manner bound to at
tract attention and get results.
The ads will all carry live messages
and should be considered as inn
portant as any other news in the
paper.
At any rate, watch The Silver
State. We believe we have hit
upon the solution to the newspaper
problem in this vicinity and will
try to prove the contention.

Milk Campaign
Oct. 29-Nlv. 3

The University of Wisconsin, in CO
operation with H. G. Seyforth, County
Agent of Pierce County, has arranged
an intensive milk campaign for TINS
county during the week Of October
% to November g. The primary OBJ
iect of this campaign is to call at
tention to the value OF milk as a
food to improve the health OF the
people. There is no doubt but that
milk is the indispensable food Tor
children and milk in some form must
be furnished if the nutrition OF the
average child is to be furnished and
the normal growth, height and weight
is to be assured.
Rather extensive plans have been
developed among which may be men
toned the following:
Poster Contest. Already all the
school children in Pierce County from
the third to eighth grades are work
ing on poster contest illustrating
some phase of milk as food. The
county is divided into districts. The
first three in each district are sent to
Ellsworth for final judging. GOOD
prizes are offered for the best post
ers. Those made by children in this
section will be on display during thai
week.
Window Display. 1t is the plan to
have every merchant emphasize the
Importance of milk through his win
dow display. A committee has been
appointed and it is hoped that every
merchant will cooperate in boosting
this work.
Evening Program. One night of
the week there will be a meeting at
the Normal School. The program
will be quite varied. An especially
good outside speaker viii be provided.
The University Extension Division
have arranged to send a film to be
shown. Some of the boys and girls
in the Normal Training School and
the city High School will put on a
play, sing songs, and give yells, etc.
The committee is endeavoring to make
this program strong one and it is
felt that it will be one of interest to
all:
School Meetings. 1t is the plan to
have outside speakers talk to the
children in every grade in the town
and in every rural school.
The local committee is working
hard to have River Falls enter this
campaign with great deal of energy
and enthusiasm.

The River Falls municipal power
plant is now augmented by 200
horse power unit, put into operation
last week, and ample power is now
available to insure not only steady
service, but to allow for considerable
extension.
For many years past the plant has
been overtaxed, and low stage OF
water has often proved a serious
handicap. The new unit makes 1t
possible to carry full load at all
times, and to always have the ponds
full of water.
The motive power is furnished by
a 20o-horse power De La Vergne
Vertical Diesel oil engine with its
direct connected generator, shown in
the picture published herewith. The
entire new unit installed, together
with the power-house annex In which
it is housed, cost the city approxi-
mately $4,000.

Ramer Co. Garage
Damaged By Fire

Fire of unknown origin, starting
in the stock room, swept the entire
two floors of the Kramer Auto Co.
garage on E. Elm street about 2:30
yesterday morning, causing a heavy
loss TO building and contents.
The fire, gaining rapid Roadway
through the light wooden partition
of the stock room, for time threat
ened to endanger the entire block,
but glorious work of the fire depart
ment checked the blaze and had it
under control before it had eaten its
way through the roof. A gale was
blowing from the south, and this,
combined with the infiammable ma
terial in the garage, made the fire.
mems task a difficult one.
The office furniture, partitions, and
all woodwork of the building was
either completely destroyed or badly
scorched. Mr.. Ramer's King "8'
touring car, stored downstairs, was
ruined, and Gray demonstrating car,
which was also on the first floor,
was badly scorched. Two of the
company's cars, on the workshop
floor above, were destroyed in the
flames. Two Ford cars which were
stored on the first floor, were saved.
The loss, which had not been as
certained as we go to press, is cover
ed by insurance. Mr.. P. W. Kramer
was on a business visit in the Twin
Cities at the time Of the fire, and
did not know of it until he returned
late yesterday afternoon.

First Conference
Game Won By River
Falls High School
Roberts Here Next Saturday, p. M.

Coach Klanrud's squad started off
the high school conference schedule
last Friday afternoon with 10 to 0
victory over the Ellsworth high at
the Fair Grounds. Quite a large
number Of local fans motored out to
root for the Orange 4. Waite
The game was marred by fumbling
on both sides after the Falls first
kickoff, but Lowell Dawson got away
for 30-yd. run, and his brother
squirmed the remaining distance for
a touchdown. Goal was missed.
The Hub backs were unable to
gain, and a punt from under their
goal posts in the second quarter
went out of bounds on the 20-yd.
line. After couple of plays Lowell
Dawson circled the end for another
touchdown. When the ball was pas
sed for the try at goal Capt. Dawson
found himself hemmed in, but, lead
ing the entire Murphy aggregation
merry chase across to the sidelines,
he doubled back, cut in sharply and
crossed the line for an added point.
The half ended, Is to 0, in favor Of
River Falls.
In the third quarter Standish, who
had gone in at quarter, scored the
third and last touchdown. WITH
practically all of the second-string
men in the Orange & White lineup.
the remainder of the half was batrl
ed through on practically even terms.
The Roberts high school eleven,
which comes here Saturday is certain
to put up a stiff argument. Although
the newest to football of any school
in the conference, Roberts appears to
have the strongest team in this sec
ton this season. Saturdays battle,
which starts at o'clock, on the
high school campus, is certain to be
an interesting fuss.

a thing of the past, and they are
also going into almost exclusive use
in the larger ships.
The Diesel engine in the River
Falls plant has three cylinders, and
operates at a speed of PIT revolu-
lions per minute. 1t uses low grade
or crude oil, which costs Csc here
and consumes about $50 gallons in a
24-hour run. 1t is etart"| by COM
pressed air, 150-lb. pressure, and
will start cold without printing. The
new unit is very handily connected
to run parallel with the water power
units.
1t has been demonstrated that this
type of oil engine can be operated al
one-third the cost of a steam plant
of similar horsepower.
The new unit was decided upon as
the most economical way of providing
the necessary power to give this city
and the adjoining territory steady
satisfactory service.
