SportSmanship.

A United States senator knocked
down member of an exclusive
Washington golf club on the links of
the club the other day.
OF course, any red-blooded man
resents an insult, but this senator
has been suspended from the club for
two weeks, which is construed to
mean that he was the offender and
that he did not have a legitimate
excuse for such tactics.
The incident may have political
significance for those who wish to
view it in that light, but for a coun-
try that prides itself on its sports
manship, the circumstance is
shameful.
Golf is a great sport and is fast
gaining a hold on the American
public. 1t is being played every
day on thousands of links the length
and breadth of the land by men who
never find it necessary to resort to
pugilism.
Men who are held up before boys
as examples--men particularly in
public life-should observe the
courtesies of the game. whether in
the senate or on the golf course.
It's poor brand of sportsmanship
that uses its fists on any OCCASION

SWAT THE SCRUB BULL
Prof. CoIlentine to Speak at Series of
Meetings Starting July y.
By Dan A. Shaffer
Countv Agricultural Agent

By Dan A. Shaffer
County Agricultural Agent
The first meeting Of the Swat the
Scrub Bull Campaign in Iron Coun-
tv. will be held at Van Buskirk in the
Young Peoples Hall on Tuesday ev-
ening, July %, at 8 CLOCK. The fol-
lowing night Prof. Collentine will
speak at Iron Belt at the High School
Auditorium. On Thursday evening he
will appear at the High School audi
forum at Saxon and on Friday night
at the Community Hall in the town Of
Kimball.
Mr.. Farmer if you still harbor a
scrub bull or a boarder COW, plan to
hear Mr.. Collentine. He will prove to
you the folly of your ways and con-
vince you to purchase purebred sire
at once Anyway you will not want
to miss the moving pictures that will
be shown as a part of the program.
You will want to see the picture
taken in Barron County. You surely
will want to see Barron County in ac-
tion at home, at the county fair and at
the National Dairy Show. You will
want to see 'The Dairy Champions of
1922" and you cannot afford to miss
the film entitled DAIRY Cattle" The
film just recently released from the
Department of Agriculture entitled
"The Tale Of Two Bulls" is worth GO
ing miles to see.
Come and be convinced that you are
on the right track if you have started
in the dairy business. Get into the
bandwagon and be booster for better
dairy cattle in Iron County. Remem-
Der that the COW is the mother of pros
perity and that there is a place for the
COW in the agriculture in every COM
munity. Remember also that wher-
ever the COW has taken her rightful
place, and man has done his part we
find the highest type Of farming; we
find the farmers living on their farms,
raising crops in rotation, which is
the way the Lord intended us to farm.
We find on the farms, barns and e.
quipment and silos-regular factories
working the year around, getting the
most from the farm crops and provid-
ing an income every day of the year.
We find homes with conveniences. We
find intelligent, thrifty, debt-free peo-
pie with minds and hands alert from
steady employment. We find good
citizenship, good schools and a good
agriculture. We find a community
worth while to live in.

these people feel that the federal

funds the cost of organizing these

costs of operating them.

Highway Work To Be Reduced.

Madison-Highway forces have
been reduced approximately 40 per
cent during the past year, the
number Of employees having been re-
duced from BAL to 1879, or 142 and
highway construction will be reduc-
ed approximately 500 miles or % per
cent this year compared with 1928,
according to estimates presented to
the state highway commission by
John T. Donaghey.
Engineer Donaghey estimates that
construction work Of all types for
the present year will total 1862
miles compared with 2,324.37 miles
during 1928.
During the first five months in
the present year, a total of 1879
miles of roads of all types were
completed. The construction work
is distributed as follows: Grading,
1884 miles; top soil, 40; gravel,
9343; concrete, 8.37; other surfac-
ing, ITS. The construction was
done under the following heads:
Federal aid, GAG; state aid, 72.18;
bond issue, 20.77; county aid, 47.95
miles.
Estimated work for the last seven
months Of the year are as follows:
Grading, 51770 miles; top soil,
100.47 miles; gravel, 834,66;
concrete, 266.80; other surfacing,
1915; total estimated, l,73913.
In bridge construction, Donaghey
reported that "a bridges have been
supervised during five months Of
1924 and estimated that 400 more
would be supervised, making a total
of 47l He said that total of
$50 bridge plans were drawn and
construction supervised during 1928.
The state engineers report reveals
the following totals for construction
work last year. Grading, 745.34
miles; top soil, 35.55; gravel, 1,123.-
08; concrete, 40303; other surfacing
1877; total, 2,32437.
Donaghey declared that federal,
state and county work is not re-
ceiving the needed supervision from
the state. If the commission is to
carry out the work authorized by
law, it can reduce operations only
slightly from the present level, he
stated, recommending some changes

A LILLE TALK On THRIFT
By S. W. STRAUS
President of American Society for Thrift

Hoarding as unlike true thrift
as iron-ore is unlike a powerful To-
connective. The iron represents po-
tential strength and power. But it
must be put through certain process
es of preparation and become ac-
tive before its usefulness is made
available.
Hoarded wealth is a dead weight
on business. Between the miser and
the spendthrift there is little to
choose when they are placed on the
scales of moral and social valuation.
The boarding processes grade up
those who for various reasons hide
away a share Of their earnings rat
her than place these funds where they
yill flow through the regular chan
nels of business.
Some interesting and rather amaz>
ing figures were compiled recently
in the United States Treasury Depart
ment. These figures reveal that the
amount of money which may be term
ed as boarded in this country amounts
to 100000, 900. There are 5000
persons who are definitely classed as
misers with 44,000,O00 hidden away
in secret places.
Among our foreign population, a
treasury official estimates that some
two million persons hoard $225,000,>
600 of their earnings. In rural dis
tricts, especially where banking ia
cilities are inadequate, there is much
boarding. This is shown by the fact
that when bank is started in a rur-
al locality where no bank existed be-
fore, personal deposits made up
largely from boarded sums at once be-
gin to make their appearance. About
$125, 100000, it is officially estimat-
ed, is boarded in rural communities.
One of the benefits of thrift edu-
cation is that people are made to see
the harmful effects of boarding
money.
Real thrift is the elimination of
waste. And within this definition
boarding must be considered waste
full because the individual loses the
rightful income from his savings and
business in general loses the benefits
that should come from these additions
to the legitimate channels of trade
and investment.
1t is well to understand that when
the saving of money is carried to the
point of keeping it continually out
of circulation such habits come very
far from being within the rightful
meaning of thrift.
