OLD BRIDGE is DOOMED
Famous Covered Toll Struc-
ture at Bridgeport, Wis
consin, Last of Kind.

The famous old covered wooden
bridge at Bridgeport, Wis, soon
will be consigned to the scrap
heap states the Milwaukee Jour
nal. The Wisconsin state high
way commission has taken an OPP
ton on it, and within the last
month engineers have made sur
veys for new state bridge to
take its place, and their reports
have been submitted to headquar-
ters.
The Bridgeport bridge is one of
three toll bridges still left over
the Wisconsin river and among
the few bridges of the single
roof cover type still in existence
IN the country. 1t has acquired
another distinction the last few
years, as it has turned out to be
young gold mine for it's owner,
Harry Lathrop, since State high
way 10 through Bridgeport has
become one of the most popular

the toll for team and wagon was
a dollar.
Though it has turned out to be
a big money maker Mr.. Lathrop
says he realizes that a toll bridge
in this day and generation on
state road is an imposition on the
travelling public and is willing to
sell out to the state.

rificed some on the price in order
to help the boy get a start. The
SOW narrowed nineteen pigs on
March 9Th. Three pigs were born
dead and three killed while Ches-
ter was attending school but the
remaining thirteen were raised.
At the time of the county ION
litter contest the litter was one
day less than months old and
weighed 1870 pounds. Though
there were % entries, Chester took
first place. After the county show
the pigs were kept on feed and on
October 18th they were exhibited
in the state contest at Madison.
At this time the litter was 231
days of age and weighed 34O5.
There was only one other heavier
litter shown. Here the litter stood
sixth while the best barrow won
second in ring of Is barrows.
At the close of the show the pigs
were disposed Of to the packers
bringing $7.75 per cwt.

to conceal their delusions when
they realize that they are watch
ed. After this information IS OBJ
tanned it should be submitted to
a commission of alienists equip
ped to gauge the subjects sanity.
Of course safeguards are necessary
so that there shall be no injustice
done any man. But it is not
kindness to the paranoic to allow
him to go ON until he stands
charged with a crime.
It is about time we stopped hill
ing our insane asylums with
harmless lunatics while we let
these dangerous persons run free.
IF we would care for the para
noic we would not only add great

cut our roll of crime in half

Chester Manthei, a thirteen year
old member of the Rock County
Pig Club is entitled to the destinc-
ton of being the pig club cham
pion of Wisconsin. He raised the
heaviest ton litter of pigs in the
state among club members, won
first in the Ton Litter Contest in
his own county in competition
with established breeders and
sixth in the state contest at Mad
ison and took second premium IN
the class for fat barrows at the
same show. He won $4,000 IN
premium money and sold his litter
for $247.71, making a total OF
S33771 to- show for his club work.
Chester acquired his sow through
his own efforts. His father gave
him small plot of tobacco with
the understanding that the profit
made was to be his. He realized
$500 and with this purchased a

pass over it during the touring

Besides its motor traffic, great
numbers of cattle, hogs, and
sheep are brought over the bridge
from the south, for Bridgeport is
one of the principal stock ship
ping points of southern Wisconsin.
1t always has been since the long
ago when Wisconsin's first rail-
road, the MISUNDERSTANDING du
Chen line, built through the vii
lage. There are farmers in Grant
county to-day who for over half
century have paid toll on every
head of stock they have marketed.

ROYALTY OF OLD BIG EATERS
Feast at Court Of KING Richard Il
Called for Vast Amount
Of Food.

England In the Canterbury days ate
much in the French style. Spoons and
fingers were good manners and carv-
ing was new-fangled, II 1t was In fact
practiced to any extent at all.
Richard II and the duke of Lam
caster once dined in London with the
bishop Of Durham. The king, the
duke and the bishop and their retinues
and guests called for 120 sheep, IA
salted oxen and 2 fresh, 1,240 pigs, u
bears. 210 geese, 100 hens, so capons
"of HE geze" and eight dozen other
capons, 80 swans and 100 dozen
pigeons; rabbits and curlews by the
score. 1000 eggs. II gallons of cream
and 120 gallons of milk.
Such was royal feast, says the De-
troit News, and every day, whether
fast day or eating day, had four meals.
Breakfast at seven, dinner at ten In
the morning, supper at four and Nv-
cry at eight. The hour Of dinner is
said TO show the development of cook
ing In any given country. But there
were Chaucerian refinements, never
theless, aside from dishes of flowers;
permissible foods initiating the form
OF meats on fast days, even eggs be-
ing counterfeited and clever things
such as making two capons out Of one
by skinnlng it and stufing the skin.
There were, besides, the points Of
etiquette; pig for lord should be
endored, his cabbage thickened with
egg. not crumbs; pike served whole
to lord, but cut for the commonalty.
And mint sauce has a pedigree reach

Early Americans Tied to
Coast by Need of Salt

Early American settlers were tied to
the coast by the need of salt, without
which they could not preserve their
meats and live In comfort. Writing in
1852, Bishop Spagenburg says of a
colony for which he was seeking lands
In North Carolina They will require
salt and other necessaries which they
can neither manufacture nor raise.
Either they must go to Charleston,
which is 300 miles distant, or else go
to Boling's Point In Virginia on a
branch of the James and also 800 miles
from here, or else they must go down
the Roanoke know not how many
lniles-where salt is brought up FROM
Cape Fear"
An annual pilgrimage for salt thus
became essential. Taking furs AMI
ginseng root, the early settlers sen,
their pack trains after seeding time
each year to the coast But when dis
coyery was made of the salt springs
Of the Kanawha and the Holston and
the Kentucky and central New York,
the West began to be freed from de-
pendence ON the coast 1t was in part
the effect of finding these salt springs
that enabled settlement to cross the
mountains.-Detroit News.

HERoIsM OF CAT IN AFRICA
Missionary Tells How His Pet Saved
Nine Kittens From Death In
Hail Storm.

A missionary to Africa tells this In
teresting story Of the unusual heroism
of a cat he once owned. One day a
terrific hail storm came, the sort con-
corning which English and American
people know nothing. In quarter Of
an hour hail covered the ground to a
depth of two feet. Before the storm
began the missionary's three cats were
outside playing; they were all mother
cats and had their kittens with them.
Immediately two of the mother cats
ran to shelter, never troubling about
the little ones, but the heroine Of the
story stood her ground. AS soon as her
master managed to go to her he found
that she had gathered not only her own
four babies, but all the others as well.

keeping them warm and safe, while
she was nearly frozen. She had nearly
died In saving them, for her poor sides
were terribly bruised by the heavy
hailstones. Carefully did the mission
airy wrap her in blankets and then he
nursed her till she had recovered.

with sharp teeth. These birds. de-
scribed In Science and Invention by
Carroll Lane Fenton, department OF
paleontology, University Of Michigan,
are known from their skeletons, which
have been preserved and turned into
stone In the chalk beds of western
Kansas.
Hesperornis, the western bird. as
this ancient dweller Of Kansas LIS

of his toes. In shape he was a good

means of his legs and feet alone. never
trying to use wings.
Indeed, he could hardly have done
so. for after ages of disuse, his wings
had disappeared entirely, and there re
manned but few bones to show where
they once had been. But stout legs
and paddle-like feet were all he need
ed to get about, either on the surface
or below. His body was shaped like a
submarine, while his neck had the driv-

Certain Seeds May Be Subjected to
intense Heat and Still Retain
Their Vitality.

Amazing ways of enabling her chill
dren to survive extraordinary hard
ships have been devised By nature.
None Of her inventions has more won
derful powers of endurance than the
seed by means Of which plant life Is
carried on.
You may subject certain seeds for
hours to a temperature of 100 degrees
below freezing point, you may heat
them until they are hot enough to burn
your hand. yet they will not lose their
vitality.
Great fires often rage through the
forests, destroying mile after mile Of
giant trees. When the fire has passed
there remains nothing but charred
stumps and flame-scarred. smoldering
soil. Yet within a few months the
whole district will be green with the
first leaves of the tiny Seeding trees.
Recent tests to discover the heat at
ground level during a forest fire dis
closed that 1t was from 1000 to 1.500
degrees Fahrenheit. The fires move so
quickly that this intense heat lasts for
only minute or less at any spot.
Various tree seeds were then tried
to see what heat they could resist. 1t
was found that fir cones could with
stand a temperature of 1900 degrees
Fahrenheit for eight minutes without
