Make Experiments
on 500-acre Tract

Washington. - Don't think for a
minute that animals don't know when
they're well off.
On a farm in Maryland, not far from
Washington, cows, sheep, pigs, goats,
horses and chickens are living in the
lap of luxury.
They are being cared for by experts
of the Department Of Agricultural
animal husbandry and dairying bu-
reaus.
Well Cared For.
They are fed specially prepared and
scientifically constructed meals and
live in specially prepared and scienti-
fically constructed barns, coops and
pens.
The Department of Agriculture
realizing the advantage of nearby
proving ground for carrying on live
stock experiments, purchased 1900
acre tract in 1913.
The place was stocked and animal
experts were summoned in.
The general idea was to work out
scientific experiments in breeding and
feeding.
Beginning with 16 scrub cows and
one pure-bred Holstein-F riesian bull
thd experts bred and inbred until now
they have herd of 200 splendid Hol-
stems.
"A diet has been worked out for the
cows which increases their milk pro-
duction AS per cent.
Milking three times a day has been
found to increase it another IL pei
cent.
The pigs are raised under 8 system
called Swine sanitation" They are
kept in spotlessly clean pens. Then
food is miXed-in such way as tc
eliminate so far as possible the soft
bacon 50 undesirable on the market
To do this they are fed less peanuts
and soy beans and more corn.

Tax Gross Income
of Motor Buses

Fond du Lac, Wis. A bill provid-
ing for tax on the gross income of
notorious and freight line companies
probably will be introduced at the
coming season of the Wisconsin leg
islature as a result of action taken
by the Fond du Lac county board of
supervisors.
A committee of three supervisors
has been appointed TO confer with
State Senator w. A. Titus about the
proposed measure. Senator Titus is
expected to introduce the bill.
Motorbuses and trucks are the most
destructive vehicles on the highways
and yet pay only a small personal
property tax besides the annual license
fee, according to Supervisor A. G..
Chase, member of the committee.
Chase said that railways have to meet
a far greater expense in maintaining
their rights of way, while the motor
buses use the public roads.

SIX KEN0SHA
HUNTERS NABBED
Report Says Six Kenoshans
Caught With Doe in
Possession.
WHO WERE THEY?

A party Of six Kenosha hunters were
arrested fer having several doe in
their possession and for eating veni-
son in camp, according to- report
reaching Kenosha this morning from
Green Bay. The report did not name
the hunters and did not tell the camp
where they were arrested so that the
identity of the hunters could be es-
tablished.
Several groups of Kenosha hunters
have been in the north woods and
some of them have already returned
to Kenosha with their catches. Not
one of these groups would admit that
1t was the party suggested in the re
port from the north, each claiming
that most certainly it was not their
group. It was suggested that the re-
port from the north might be mis-
take and that the group arrested
Nigh have been from soma other city
than Kenosha.
The same despatch declared that
another man was arrested after a box
was seized aboard Pullman in which
The carcass of deer was found.
Game Wardens Busy.
The reports, however, are indication
that the game wardens are busy in
the north words and that Kenosha
hunters who are going in search OF
big game must be careful to observe
all of the laws.
y Delay the opening of the deer hunt
ing season until the first week in De-
cember, and the menace of the auto
mobile insofar as lawlessness is con
cerned, will be greatly reduced, in the
opinion Of Bert Clahin, state game
warden inspector, who appeared here
as witness in several deer hunting
law violation cases.
2 The Inspector just returned from
the hear of the deer country near
Eagle River, where he and Warden
Henry 9berholtzer of Forest county
report they seized twenty-ons doe,
apprehended twelve law violators and
were instrumental in preventing a
murder tragedy.
Rap Gasoline Deer Hunters.
'fThose gasoline deer hunters keep
us guessing. said Warden ClaAin,
they take the side roads, dodge around
here and there, get out Of our sight
gnd then on to the main highway with
sAeir illegal kill. During the three
days at Eagle River 1900 hunters with
automobiles were counted, and it will
never be known how many bucks and
doe were unlawfully killed in the
woods.
"Of course to increase the number
of game wardens may help in getting
the auto deer thief, but the only way
to get rid of that menace is to delay
the deer hunting season until some
time in December, when there is SC
much snow in the north woods that
an automobile cannot be used"
Inspector Clafiin said that much
trickery was used in the many at
tempts to evade the law. He related
how he stopped one automobile and
found blood stains on the running
hoard. At first his investigation was
futile, but after second search his
attention was called to long bundle
tied close to the top of the machine
and directly above the rear seat. He
found the bundle to contain full
grown doe.

Nation Tunes In;
Few Get Results
Many Amateurs Report Hearing Eu-
ropean Stations Monday Night
But Few Are Verified.

Nick Sieniavsky, 124 South Newell
street, with a three-tube set, reported
that he believes he got Paris at 1917
o'clock Monday evening. Nick says
he didn't hear definitely the announc-
er and that the program was coming
in very family.
Numerous amateurs in the eastern
states today reported having heard
the radio programs which were broad
cast from Europe last night in the in
ternational broadcasting tests. Lon
don, Paris, Rome and Berlin were re-
ported heard.
Reception was not perfect and in
many cases the listeners, were unable
to identify the sending stations. In
reference, attributed to the tuning in
of thousands Of regenerative sets was
the principal difficulty.
The effort to send American pro-
grams to Europe apparently were less
successful although full reports had
not been received today.
The announcement:
"This is radio station VOX HAUS,
Berlin, operating on 430 metres,". was
picked up at about 10:30 o'clock last
night by Arthur Bender, Coyington,
KY, owner of an eight-tube receiving
set. Mr.. Bender heard an instrument
al number, song, and then the an
nouncement, he said.
Many radio fans called up Cincin-
natl newspapers to report having
heard foreign stations, but Mr.. Ben
der was the only one who could veri-
fly call letters of the station picked
up.

FULTON DIVES
FOR LAST TIME
PIasterer One of Games
Leading Exponents of
Building Up"
IT WORKED ALL WRONG

New York-Pugilism's most motor
ious diver has probably gone into the
tank, for the last time.
Fred Fulton's flop to Tony Fuente,
humorously called the heavyweight
champion of Mexico, was too much
even for the tolerant police author
tiles of the coast.
From now on the meek Minnesotan
will be asked to confne his aquatic
demonstrations to the privacy of his
own bathtub, if any.
It is hard for psychologists of the
ring to determine whether Fulton is
beset with weak heart or weak jaw, or
both.
His manager refers to him as a
"frst-class bum" This would seem
to be, in the light of recent events,
extravagant praise.
Fulton, a reformed plasterer, is
Fulton, reformed plastere,r is
winding up a mediocre career in a
manner typical of mediocre fighters.
Never a championship prospect him
self, Fulton is now serving as a means
20 a promotional end for some of the
younger hopefuls.
Fulton was signed to meet Fuente
fo~ no other purpose than to take
a dive.' Mr.. Windy Winsor, who
handles the belligerent tamale, OBJ
viously had that in mind when the
match was made.
Mr.. Winsor once had Dempsey but
let him get away. Whereupon Mr..
Jack Kearns took him and by dint of
some shrewd, if questionable, match
making, rushed the Colorado clouter
into the richest of all titles.
A motley collection of broken-down
stars and never heard-of setups were
thrown to Denpsey-the Homer
Smiths, Jim Flynns, Bull Sadees, Tony
brakes and Eddie Smiths-and Jack
proceeded to fatten them all in Jig
time
The Case of Mr.. Bonds.
Taking his cue from Kearns, Mr..
Wiasor doubtless has visions of build
ing up Fuente just as Kearns built up
Dempsey.
Joe Bonds was diver of no mean
ability several years back. You could
always count on Joe going into the
tank some time between the first and
tenth round. His record for consist
ency appealed to gentlemen interested
in promoting. Bob Martin, soldier
heavyweight.
Bonds was picked as Martins first
professional opponent. To give the
diver a little s.tonen he was brought

! Constable John Scholey, once known
far and wide throughout southern
Wisconsin as the "Lone Crusader"
was back III the harness again as a
rum raider late Monday afternoon,
when he led police sponge squad to
the old Hams soft drink parlor at
1850 Grand avenue, now operated by
Albert Christensen, and there helped
in making a roundup of big supply
of booze of various varieties.
Constable Scholey was not clone
crusader" on this occasion, however,
for he was accompanied by Police
Sergeant Lawrence Melbusch and Pa
trolman Paul Rhode who assisted in
making the raid and the arrest. Con-
stable Scholey was the man who swore
out the warrant, alleging that there
was liquor in the place and he led the
raiding party to the place.
No Trouble In Raid.
The squad had no trouble in making
the raid, They walked calmly into
the place and the owner and the bar
tender accepted their visit as mat
ter of course. They began runaging
around for liquor and we're awarded
by finding four pints of moonshine in
one Jug, nine cases of home brew, said
to contain considerably more than the
legal percentage of alcohol, half gal
lon of wine and small jug filed with
mooashine liquor.

Christensen did not try any of the

the raid, pleaded guilty and was fined
