S1,275,0O0 Invested in
Badger Farm Loans
Secretary of State Annuity Board
| Shows Amount Now Loaned to
Wisconsin Farmers.

Madison. Wis. A total of ST.
275,000 of state annuity board funds
are now invested in farm loans in
Wisconsin and 100000 of additional
mortgages are pending before the
board. according to a report issued
today by R. E. Loyeland, secretary of
the board. The funds are loaned M
222 different mortgages, the report
shows.
Secretary Loveland denied reports
that annuity boar funds have been
used for purchasin Canadian bonds in
preference to farm loans in this
state.
Investment in Canadian securities
has never caused the board TO turn
down an application for farm loan
in Wisconsin," Loveland said. "No
farmer has been refused loan on his
farm except for one reason: inability
to furnish properly security. There
have always, been sufficient funds to
take care of applications for farm
loans. In addition to cash actually on
hand, there is a reserve fund invest
ed in marketable securities which
may be sold at any time. Of this ma
ture are the Canadian bonds. Cana
dian bonds were purchased at time
when there were more funds than the
farm loan application could absorb.
''Phe annuity board now has field
men stationed at Ashland, Rice Lake,
Marshfield and Madison to inspect
farms in any part of the state where
loans are desired. The board has 222
mortgages On farms located in thirty
seven counties, totalling $1,275,000.
These mortgages range from $1,000 to
$4,000 The annuity board has been
acting as a loaning agency for two
years and has always had sufficient
farm loan funds on hand. There are
now 143 farm loans, amounting to
more than 100000 which have been
approved by the board and are being
completed as fast as abstracts and
titles are cleareds"
Secretary Loveland announced that
the board will maintain an exhibit at
the state fair at which experts will
explain the work of the board and the
methods of obtaining funds to farm
ers and others who visit the booth.

source of dairy cattle and leading
dairy state in the union, will come
under the scrutiny of dairy leaders
everywhere, Mr. Skinner says. A dele
CATION of two hundred bankers and
| farmers from Kansas, Missouri and
Oklahoma have promised to come for
the purpose of buying foundation
stock from Badger dairymen. Similar
groups are coming from other dairy
centers, he adds.
Educational and extension forces IN
| Wisconsin, under the direction of John

work in increasing dairy efficiency will
be stressed. A sale of 800 grade dairy
cows, with yearly butter fat records of
$50 pounds or more, is being planned.
| Daily competitive COW judging con-
test by farmers representing county
breed associations, will make new
departure in dairy circles.

HOLY WAR ON
In ZION AGAIN
Independents File Injunc-
ton to Keep Voliva
from Interfering.
TRIED TO RAISE TENT

After one year Of peace, war has
famed out anew in Zion City.
A petition was filed in the Circuit
court in Waukegan Tuesday asking
that Overseer Voliva and his "war-
riors" be restrained from interfering
with the erection of tent in which
the independents" are planning to
hold revival meetings.
Grace Missionary church is planning
revival meeting to ( begin Friday
night. Police Chief Theo. Becker has
notified the pastor, T. H. Nelson, and
the trustees that if they attempt to
put up the test they will be arrested
claiming that it is contrarty to
building and fire hazard ordinance.
Claims 1t Is Subterfuge.
P. B. Johnson, trustee, charges that
this is a subterfuge and merely a part
of Volivia's alleged plot to drive out
the independents He claims that Vol
iva has declared from his pulpit "that
he has stopped the work Of construc-
ton on the church and would keep II
stopped" This refers, it is alleged
to the permanent structure which new
er got any further than the first
story. At that time large number
of workmen were arrested.
Prof. Bosworth, former worker in
Volivia's vineyard, who fell out with
the Overseer, has been engaged te
conduct the revivals for Grace Miss
ionary church, which is seeking\ the
injunction.
Rev. Nelson Again.
1t was stated that when Rev. Nelson
got out the tent and spread it over
the ground Monday to measure the ad-
dition, the report went out that he was
going to erect it. The fire whistle
was blown, it is alleged, and in ten
minutes several hundred of Overseer's
special guards were on the scene to
prevent its erection.
One Of Atty. Thee. Forby's objections
to the erection of the tent is that
the crowds and the singing would dis
turb the neighborhood.
The court will hear arguments on
the injunction Wednesday morning al
o'clock, a special session having been
called.

Denies Reports of
National Defense

Madison, Wis. 49, Although reports
have been received here from several
points in the state to the effect that
National Defense Day observations are
being planned and the national guard
units would probably take part in the
celebration, Adjutant General Ralph
M. Immell announced today that no
national guard company commander
has authority to call out the guard
units for such occasions except on
direction of the governor of the state
department.
No authority has been issued to any
company commanders to participate in
the Defense Day activities, General
Immell said.
The statement is significant in view
of the position taken by Governor
Blaine recently when he declined to
designate the day or to direct guard
units to take part in the affair.
Whether the local observances OF
the day over the state will be exten-
sive, is not known here.

FRANK MALONE
DIED TUESDAY
Old EmpIoye of Northwest
ern Railway Here Dies
After Weeks Illness.
FIGURED in ACCIDENT

Death terminated weeks serious
illness of Frank Malone at st. Cath
crimes hispital on Tuesday evening.
The cause was a cerebral hemorrhage
and an attack of apoplexy. On Tues
day evening of Aug. 5, Frank Malone
was injured at the Grand avenue
crossing of the North Western rail-
road where he was fagman. A switch
engine struck him a glancing blow on
the head. At the time of the acct
dent it was not thought that it would
be fatal. But later tthe hospital he
had not regained consciousness, and
he remained unconscious until the end.
At the bedside were members of
the immediate family, the widow Mrs.
Margaret Malone with whom he lived
at 1873 S. Fremont avenue, and one
daughter, Mrs. John Deignen, and two
grandchildren, Geraldine and Dorothy,
all of Kenosha, whom survive the de-

Long a Railway EmplOye.
Frank Malone was born in Wauke-
gan. ILL.,, in 1859, and came to Keno
sha at the age of % taking employ
ment as telegraph boy with the Chi
cago and North Western railroad. Lat
er he rose to the position of switch
man, train conductor and yardmaster
-Four years ago he was pensioned by

GOOD ROADS ARE
REACHED BY ALL
No Territory in County is
More Than 3 Miles from
Patrolled Highway.
MAY BE BETTER HERE

Kenosha County is one of those
counties in the state wherein no per-
son lives more than three miles from
parolled highway, according to an
article carried by the Milwaukee
Journal. recently. 1t was stated that
this figure was for the majority of
the counties included in the district;
Kenosha and Racine counties are noted
for their fine network of roads and
it is probable that the actual figure
ehre is below that point.
The milwaukee Journal article
reads as follows:
Ninety-fve of every 100 persons in
Wisconsin now live within three miles
of patrolled state or county trunk
highway, according to an engineers
map just issued by the Wisconsin
state highway commission. The esti-
mate Of 95 per cent is long way on
the safe side-actually, it is believed
that the percentage is considerably
nearer 1O0-probably not more than
35 per cent of the total population
lives more than three miles from one
Of the highways. The figures are
kept safely on the conservative side
so that there can be no question of
doubt
Another interesting fact brought to
light is that 80 per cent of the popu-
lation live on patrolled trunk high
ways.
Small Proportion Unserved.
Considering the wide dispersion of
population in some of the thinly set
\tled regions, the area served by pa
trolled trunk highways is even more
surprising. The areas more than three
miles from the patrolled trunk high
ways comprise but 8.75 per cent of
the total surface of the state. Many
counties in the southern and eastern
part of the state have no territory that
is more than three miles distant from
a highway These counties comprise
Kewaunee, Sheboygan, Ozaukee, Wash
ington, Milwaukee, Fond du Lac,
Waukesha, Racine, Walworth, Kenosha,
Green, Lafayette, Richland and, in the
west, Dunn. A large number of other
counties show only tiny dot or two
of black-a farm here an there that
because Of turn in the road was
lelC LuOIc LhSlA Ch1CS AhAAOo iAOHA q
highway.
In the northern part of the state
are greater number ,of extensive
black areas, which taken together
make up the 8.75 per cent. These
areas, almost without exception,
comprise sandy, marshy, cutover or
uncut timber lands, either entirely
unpeopIed, or populated by few set
tiers. In most of these areas there
are no roads of any character, due
to the fact that no one lives there to
use roads.
Surprisingly Complete.
The completeness of the Wisconsin
road system is a surprise even to
those who have been engaged in the
work of constructing the roads. Dur
ing some of the legislative hearings,
two years ago, an inquiry of the kind,
answered by the map just issuedJ
arose. A cursory examination of the
maps on hand disclosed that it was
difficult to locate territory more than
three miles from one of the patrolled
state highways. 1t was decided to
construct anengineer's map to show
the extent and location of all such
territory and one has now been COM
pleted which fulfills that purpose.

SMALL HOPE FOR
BUMPER CROPS
Recent Storms Blast Bad
ger Farmers Hopes for
a Big Crop.
FAIR CROP POSSIBLE

Madison, Wis.-Although corn pros
poets are uncertain, a large hay and
small grain crop is expected in Wis.
cousin, according to the annual crop
review issued by Paul 0. Nyhus, fed
eral-state statistician. Potatoes are
promising, but tobacco is backward in
many sections, the report states.
majority of the reports upon
which the summary is based, were
made up by local correspondents be-
fore the late storms, it is said.
Farmers of southeastern Wisconsin
rarely have as heavy yields of hay as
have been cut this year, but frequent
rains and poor weather made hayin2
extremely difficult" the statement de-
clared. yields do not run as heavy
as in southeastern Wisconsin as one
goes north over the state, but in great
er part of the dairy areas farmers will
go into the winter with more than an
usual amount of hay. In only one re-
gion, group of II counties in the
northwestern part of the state, is the
crop below average.
Clover Fields Were Heavy.
Except where clover dried out badly
last summer, clover yields were gen.
orally heavy. Alfalfa has made an ex-
celent growth and promises a good Sec
ond crop if given good weather condi-
tions for curing. The total crop Of
tame hay in Wisconsin is estimated to
bes 80 per cent above last years pro-
duction and II per cent above the s.
year average production. Haying was
practically finished in the storm dis
tricts of southern and eastern Wiscon-
sin and only in few cases where hay
was still out did the recent storms in
flict and considerable damage.
Potato Crop is Good.
Potatoes generally in good condi.
ton all over the state. Last year con-
ditions were very spotted due to the
drought areas, but the uniformity OF
the ccrop this year is unusual Except
for threatening dry spell in the Bar.
ron district, the crop has had very
favorable weather conditions. Stands
are good and vines have made seasonal
growth and are thrifty at this time
Condition Of the Wisconsin crop is Civ
en- by crop reporters as 80 per cent OF
normal, considerably above the aver.
age. Good yields were general TIVE
years ago when the condition on Aug.
ust 1st was reported as 90 per cent.
Extreme damage by the recent
storms seems to be confined to some
fields in Ozaukee county that have
been drowned out.
Tobacco Below Average.
"The tobacco crop in Wisconsin is
below the average for this date. The
crop is especially backward in the Yer.
non and Crawford districts, but some.
what further advanced in the southern
district. Fields run unevenly and re.
ports are frequent of root rot damage
The August 1st condition was reported
as 70 per cent of normal, compared
with SO per cent as the 5-year average
condition for this date. No general
damage was done by the recent storms
although poorly drained fields will be
set back more by too much rain"
