No Place to Economic.

We have read in one of our ex-
changes the past week, a letter
from a tax payer to his editor be-
wailing the fact that the state leg
islature has offered an amendment
to the state constitution calling
for an increase of salary of our
state senators and assemblyman
from $500 to $3.50.
He cites the fact that there are
20 states in which the salaries of
Legislators are less than in Wis
consin. That's the only reason.
We suggest that the tax payers
and voters of his county run him
for state assemblyman in his
county and let him try a whirl at
the job at $500 per. Let's see how
much he can save on this figure
on six months session at Madi-
son, where living is just about as
high as it can get and be within
reason.
Perhaps the best backing that
the amendment has is that of the
state federation of labor who real
ize that no ordinary man can GO
to Madison on this measley pit
lance. 1t restricts the representa-
ton of our law-making body to
men wo are in such financial con-
dition that they can sacrifice their
time at their own expense to at
tend the legislature. This is man
ifestly unfair and something to be
remedied.- Tomahawk Leader.

Will Search for Copper.

Search for copper in northern
Wisconsin will be an important
aspect of the work of two geolog-
ical field parties, made up of adj
vanced students in the geological
department of the University of
Wisconsin, that will work this
summer for the Wisconsin Geo
logical survey. The field parties
will work in the district between
Mellen, in Ashland county, and
Hurley, in Iron county, under the
direction of H. R. Aldrich, of the
Geological survey. Both parties
are to work on the question of
whether the rocks in that locality
carry copper The rocks in the
Michigan belt carry copper, but as
they come over into Wisconsin
they are more deeply covered by
glacial drift, and it ,has not yet
been discovered whether copper in
paying quantities is to be found
in Wisconsin.
The students will not, however,
confine themselves to one particu-
lar study, but will pay attention
to glacial geology, economic, struc-
tural geology, topography, soil,
timber, and drainage.
Each party will consist of about
nine men, including five compass
me, three biologists, one of whom
is chief, and a cook. Townships
will be taken as units in the work.
Through such trips, geology
students at the University of Wis
consin gain practical field exper-
fence during the summer vacation
and earn at the same time.

CLOVER IS FOOL PROOF
Wisconsin Own Grown Seed
Should be Used in all Cases.

Madison, Wis, Wisconsin eli
crime which has been laid at it's
a crime which as been laid at it's
door for years.
Every spring there have been
hundreds of Wisconsin farmers
about ready to hang Badger wea-
thermen for the winter killing of
thousands of acres of clover seed
ing. New testimony has been in
troduced and the blame is now at
tached to the clover seed itself.
Southern European clover seed
is worthless in Wisconsin, de-
cIares r. A. Moore, agronomist of
the Badger College of Agriculture
here. 1T is now definitely known
that every year hundreds of tons
of this clover seed are shipped to
this country and placed upon the
markets of the United States.
Through experiments carried on
by various stations it has been
found that this clover seed is en-
tirely worthless and very decep-
tive"
The seed in the first place looks
exceedingly fine. Any farmer
would be fooled into purchasing
such excellent looking seed 1t
terminates readily and comes on
in the spring and will carry
through the first summer. How
ever, our winters in the northern
states are too severe for this SOU
thern European seed and invari-
ably in the spring the farmer will
find that he has lost his seeding.
Many of our seedsmen are sell
ing the European varieties of clo-
yer seed without even knowing
it's origin" says Moore. 1T comes
into the country, goes onto the
various seed boards of trade and
is sent out from there with the
identity entirely lost. Many seeds
men purchasing by sample will
naturally take to- the flne looks OF
much of this seed and will pur-
chase in large quantities.
Our farmers should refuse to
purchase any clover seed unless
it's origin is known. Wisconsin
grows enough clover seed to fur
nish all of her farmers with home
grown seed. The trouble has been
that other states recognizing the
worth of Wisconsin clover seed
have been so insistent in their de-
mands for the same that we have
sold ourselves short.
Don't take the Southern Eur
opean clover seed as a gift" is
Moore's final warning to Badger
farmers.

The Villas County Park.

Last October, states the Milwau-
kee Journal, Governor Blaine an
announced the discovery of a
park in Villas county and pro-
posed that the conservation COM
missioner set aside 92,000-acre
tract there for park purposes.
The governor assumed that the
next legislature would formally
ratify such action and would
name the park; thus the Blaine
administration would have given
the people that which they have
clamored for, a real forest park,
where virgin timber and forest
wealth abound.
The governors proposal came as
an aftermath of his second veto
message against Northern Lakes
park. Twice he had defeated the
will of majority in the legisla-
ture, with no reason given that
commands much respect, or even
the later adherence of the COVER
nor.
The governor said in his veto
messages that he would favor no
park purchases unless a compre-
hensive park program had first
been adopted. And yet the ink
had hardly dried on that last mes
sage when he advocated the Gre
alton of this Villas county tract.
True, $4,000 acres of the land al
ready is owned by the state. But
to complete the project as the
governor outlines it will mean
buying 10000 acres more nearly
three times the whole Northern
Lakes area-and no "comprehen-
sive park program" has been pro-
duced to explain this change of
heart.
There is not hing seriously
against the governors proposed
park. 1t would be desirable adj
dition, except that it shouldn't
be a park, but rather forest re-
serve. 1t offers a good opportun-
ity for tree growing, but nothing
of unusual beauty. 1t was a raw
ished land, sold to the state years
ago as practically worthless, cared
for by ex-State Forester Edward
M. Griffith, brought back to a
semblance of it's one-time wood
land beauty by other foresters, in
Guiding c. L. Harrington, and has
been lying there in Villas county,
as state property, for years before
the governor discovered it and
proclaimed it a park.
1t has been as much park for
the last Is years at least as it is
likely to be for many years to
come, even if the governor sue
ceeds in giving it name and
claiming credit for having Great
ed it.
To hold for the sake of the peo-
pie, this Villas county tract will
be wise. To make a forest reserve
of it will be beneficial. To claim
it as new park will be politics.
And to allow the virgin timber in
Northern Lakes to fall under the
ak, on the claim that now, in vi
las county, the state has virgin
timber, would be utterly mislead-
ing.

COTTON LETTER


NEW YORK, May 27.-Realizing for
the coming holidays and government re-
port brought about reaction in cot
ton today. Houses prominent in the
recent buying were leading sellers dur
ing the morning, after which trade died
down and the market was quieter than
on any of the recent dull days.
The contracts sold were taken by
scattered buyers probably to cover sales
made yesterday and Saturday. The
weather map showed too much rain but
this was offset by higher temperatures.
The forecast was unfayorable and had
good deal to do with checking the
decline.
More private condition reports leads
us to expect government figure
discounted, Some reactionaries said it
had discounted sc. The market may
sell off further under the PRESSURE of
pre-bureau liquidation but a decline is
likely to be only temporary consider
ing the bad start.-John F. Clark & Co.
NEW ORLEANS, La, May 81
Warmer weather, claims from scattered
sections to the effect that recent rains
have been beneficial and two estimates
above 81 appeared to have furnished
the chief incentive for realizing as we'll
as for the selling. Heavy rains over
most of the belt, storms in the central
portion and forecast for unsettled or
showery weather overnight followed by
cooler weather made sellers careful.
and pressure from that element was
not heavy. Dry goods news is improv-
ing in character. The bad weather
that prevailed on the 25th and 26th
seems to make a low estimate from
the government almost a certainty and
some observers are beginning to pre-
dict that its figures may come under the
private estimates. Sentiment is reac-
tiOnarV at the moment and we NAV see
some lower prices temporarily but we
expect another upturn before the bu-
reau report.-Fenner & Beane to Kahn
