CURED at IL 10 o'clock today mt his
home at Washington, District of
Columbia, deprives the country of n
most distinguished citizen, and is an
event which causes universal. and
genuine sorrow. To many of us 1t
brings the sense of a profound personal
bereavement.
His early profession ms LAWYER
was abandoned 10 enter academic life.
III this chosen field he attained the
highest rank as an educator, and has
left his impress upon the intellectual
thought of the country. Prom the

New Jersey. The duties of this high
Office he so conducted as to win the
confidence of the people of the Unit
ed States, who twice elected him to
the chief magistracy of the republic.
As President of the United States
he was moved by an earnest desire to
promote the best interests of the
country ms he conceived them. His
acts were prompted by high motives
and his sincerity of purpose cannot be
questioned. He led the nation
through the terrific struggle of the
world war with lofty idealsm which
never failed him. lit gave utterance
TO the aspiration of humanity with an
eloquence which held the attention of
all the earth and made America n new
and enlarged influence in the destiny
of mankind.
In testimony of the respect in which
his memory is held by the government
and the people of the United States,
do hereby direct that the flags of the
White House and of the several de-
partmental buildings be displayed at
half staff for n period of thirty DAYS
and that suitable military and naval
honors under orders of the secretary
of war and of the secretary of the
navy may be rendered on the day of
the funeral.

One Reason
for Nervous
Disorders

VOUR doctor can tell you that
J. nervous disorders are very COM
mon among Americans. One reason
for this is found in the fact that they
are great coffee drinkers.
Coffee contains caffeine, drug,
prescribed by doctors as an emergency
stimulant for the heart and nervous
system. 1t has tendency to increase
blood pressure, develop heart irreg-
ularities and cause digestive dis
turbances.
If you feel that coffee is not good
tor you, serve Postum as your meal
time drink.
Postum is a pure cereal beverage
that refreshes and satisfies. 1t is abb
solutely free from caffeine or any
other irritating drug.
Try cup of Postum with your
dinner or supper tonight. Postum is
sold everywhere.

WILL WISCONSIN,
ELECT BRYAN?

In past years Wisconsin has given
decisive political verdicts showing that
the voters did not want Bryan or
Organism. There seems to be no
doubt about the retirement of William
Jennings Bryan as a presidential can.
didate, but now along comes Brother
Charles Bryan, sort of invigorated
disciple of Brother William and an
exponent of Organism. There is little
danger of Brother Charles Bryan's
election as Vice President in the cleo
toral college. There is, however, a
danger that he may become President
by operation of law, in case the cleo.
ton is undetermined by the electors
and goes to Congress.
In case the Socialist Third Party
should control enough electoral votes
to prevent the election of Coolidge
and Dawes, the next President will
be chosen by the States, the repre-
sentation from each State having one
vote in the House of Representatives
This creates a possibility favorable
to Bryan that should be carefully con.
sidered by the voters.
The situation is especially of interest
to Wisconsin voters, for Wisconsin is
considered one of the doubtful States,
and by many counted to favor the
presidential candidate on the Socialist
Third Party ticket. Many voters may,
in good faith, cast ballot for the
Socialist Third Party candidates to
win, only to find. if Wisconsin is car
ried by these candidates, that this act
results in Bryan's choice as president.
The law provides that the selection
of a president shall be made by the
House of Representatives if the cleo
toral college fails to record a majority.
In this choice, the House is limited
to those receiving the three highest
votes in the electoral college for Presi-
dent. In the meantime, the Senate
proceeds with the election of Vice
President. This choice is limited to
the two persons receiving the highest
votes in the electoral college for Vice
President.
If by noon on March 4, the House
of Representative has not selected
President, then the Vice President
chosen by the Senate, if there be one,
becomes President The two highest
candidates will be General Dawes and
Governor Bryan. A combination OF
six Senators will control the situation.
They are individuals that want to de
feat Dawes Bryan would become

AGRICULTURAL NOTES
BY H. G. seyforth.

The last few days / have been re-
ceiving inquiries for pure bred males
of serviceable age Of the Hoisteill,
Guernsey and Jersey breeds and also
for good grade heifers to freshen
soon. / have some breeders who
keep what they have for sale listed
with me, but find that they are about
all sold out at present. Listing
things you have for sale in this Of
fic. helps me and prospective buy
er and may also help you to sale.
List the pure bred males you have
to sell, ages months to 2 years. Al
so the grade females 18 months to
2 years that will freshen this fall or
early this winter.
Breeders Of cattle may be interest
ed in how the sales turned out the
past week. The Guernsey average
was as follows: Bulls, $82.16; cows,
$94.46; heifers under 18 months
$30.85. The top COW was sold for
$137. This animal was consigned by
Mike Mousel of Elmwood He had
the top COW last year, also selling fo-
$137.50. The Holstein averages are
as follows: Bulls, $4,000; cows,
$1,000; heifers under IS months. $50.
The top COW sold for $1,000, con-
signed by Lester Batho, Plum City.

A pure bred heifer sold for $4,000.
There was not quite as much local
demand for Holsteins as there was
for Guernseys. There was more local
demand for Holstein males than
there was for Guernsey males. There
were not as many Holstein females
ready to freshen SO soon after the
sale as there were Guernseys, which
cut down the average somewhat. 1t
is plainly demonstrated from all ex-
periences Of the past three consign-
ment sales that a good typey we'll
marked female, to freshen within a
month after the sale, sells for good
money while others do not sell as
well. 1t pays to consign some good
animals to these sales as the buyers
are willing to pay the money for
them. Breeders should profit hy
these facts and in preparing fer next
years sales should keep them in
mind. Outside buyers from Dakota
and Montana were here and purchas.

Men and women who have worked
hard to make home, who have sac
rificed to educate their children, and
who have been thrifty and economical
in the affairs of life, owe duty to
themselves in this campaign. For
the first time in the history Of this
country, there is an organized assem-
bling of every political group repre-
senting the views of Socialists, radi-
calls, and the advocates of European
ideas of government, in concerted
attempt to tear down and change the
form of our government. In this
campaign, for the first time in our
history, these forces are united
political army under generals whose
commands are obeyed. While there
are differing views as to the degree
of radicalism to be enforced by pol
icies of government, there is absolute
and complete harmony in the move
ment against the existing form of
government. Upon the plan to nullify
and make imperative constitutional
safeguards, the march is by an army
not individuals as stragglers.
