GOOD WORK AT OSHKOSH

school, did good days work in selecting their cand

OF others who figured Importantly in the voting in the

He knows the affairs of Wisconsin few others
know them and he has extensive knowledge Of and
ideas both domestic and foreign issues they affect
the nation More than that he has the courage speak
his mind and to throw his challenges at those nominal
Republicans whose choice is not to sustain the party
platform or the party administration.
The standing of Mr.. Wilcox in his profession is well
suggested by the fact that he recently elected pres

ana an unusual measure OF the fighting spirit he would
be power in Wisconsin in backing up avoWed Republ
can principles and policies and in preparing the for

Things You Should Know
3UR INVISIBLE FOES.

q happy state Of mind is that
in which we believe that we
haven't an enemy in the world.
There may be good reason for not
distributing such serenity. But
there are, in fact, millions of
deadly foes about US, invisible, un-
recognized, until it is forever too
late in many instances to check
their depredatjons.
The invisi5i4 foe is ever a mer-
ace to life. We may combat the
known enemy y, if he is too big
for us, we nay beat a safe re-
treat; but til thug in the dark al
ley, reasons that dead men tell no
tales 1t is the concealed weapon
that does the harm. The deadly
submarine is an invisible foe, ter
rible in action. and yet the IL: %
sccpic germ kills more!
It is my purpose ii this S3rics
Of articles, to discuss ''our invis-
ible foes from the standpoint of
one who has been for thirty three
years an active clinician, and who
is still so, engaged in the honor
able effort to keep men and wom-
en- fit, believing that life may be
prolonged, and the world be made
better thereby.
It would be an eminently wise
measure if our Public School
Boards would add the subject of
bacteriology to the course of
study, providing at least work
ing knowledge of the subject,
which would enable the student to
defend himself against many of
the active foes Of comfort and
health, which continually beset
him.
If you, dear reader OF this
paper, are interested in health and
its consequent longer and happier
life, for yourself and family, we
shall try earnestly to contribute
thereto, by kindly advice CLEANED
from the field of experience.

ELLSWORTH FARMER
KILLED BY BULL

Oscar Nyberg, well known farmer
of Ellsworth township, died at St.
Johns hospital at Red Wing Sunday
noon from injuries received Friday
night when he was attacked by his
Holstein bull.
Mr.. Nyberg was leading the ami
NAL to water when the snap on the
halter came loose. The animal in-
mediately attacked Nyberg, knock
ing him down. The bull, which had
been dehorned, hunted the unfortun-
ate man repeatedly and trampled on
him, before help came and drove the
enraged animal off.
1t was at first thought that Ny
berg's injuries were not SO serious,
but he suffered great pain and con-
tinued to grow worse. He was taken
to the hospital Saturday morning
where an operation was performed.
One kidney was found to have been
broken and this was removed. His
lungs and other organs were serious
ly injured.
Deceased was born in Sweden,
January 8, 1887. When he was a
year old his parents came to Amer
lea, settling at Red Wing, MINI. Six
years later they came to Pierce coun-
ty, buying a farm in Ellsworth town
ship.
He was married to Miss Vendla
Johnson of Hartland township Feb.
27, 1913, who, besides his parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. John A. Nygren, sur
vive him.
The funeral was held Wednesday
afternoon at the home and later at
the Swedish Mission church, Rev.
Gustaf Anderson and Rev. F. L. Lar
son officiating. Interment was made
in the Swedish Mission cemetery
Deceased was an Industrious man
who was highly respected in the COM
munity where he lived most of his
life. His untimely and tragic death
is keenly felt by his many friends.

MAILING TIPS FROM
THE POST OFFICE

After August l, 1925, return post
age must be guaranteed on all par
eel post, and parcels not bearing re-
turn cards will be mailed at risk of
total loss to the senders in case they
do not reach their destination.
This ruling will be a great benefit
to all concerned At present a par
eel which cannot be delivered is
held for a certain time, usually ten
days, and then the sender is notified
to send postage. This means con-
siderable delay before the sender is
aware that the parcel is undelivered
and then a few days more delay be-
fore it is returned.
With the new system parcels
which cannot be delivered will be re-
turned Immediately TO the sender.
But it is always best to have the
return card written plainly on every
parcel even now, for that will pre-
vent an even greater delay Of having
the parcel go the way of all 'nixies"
the the dead letter office.

SPRING VALLEY FLOOD
HIGHEST in 10 YEARS

The Spring Valley Sun reports that
the village experienced its worst
flood in eighteen years on Thursday
night, June II, following a vertiable
cloudburst in that vicinity.
Water began backing up into the
street at an alarming rate and the
fire bell was sounded to alarm the
citizens and give those living along
the river bottom a chance to escape
il necessary. Nearly all left their
lowland homes, but aside from filing
many Easements and flooding streets
and lawns, not much damage was
done.
To add to the general confusion the
electric light service failed that
night, and the raging waters appear
ed doubly menacing by the uncertain
CLEAN Of candle and lantern.
Among the business establishments
affected the worst hit were the Lum-
Der & Supply Co., where 600 sacks Of
grain were threatened, the Herman
Fink store, where considerable mer-
chandise was covered by water, the
George Casey garage, where two
feet of water swept over the floor,
and the Madison mill, where consider
able lumber was picked up in the
stream.
The last time Spring Valley suf-
fered any considerable flood loss was
in June, 1908, when a railway
trestle bridge cloggcd flooded
stream and backed the water into the
village. Many residents sued the
railway company for resulting dam
ages at that time.

consin were opened at New Diggins
in Lafayette county in 1924.
In the twenties this section of
Wisconsin attracted hundreds of ad-
ventrous spirits in the rush to the
mining regions. Among these was
William Schuyler Hamilton of New
York, son of Alexander Hamilton.
A typical mining craze prevailed and
life was full of excitement. Many
highly cultured people came from the
east, among them men and women
who had mingled in society in Paris
and London. The beginners of Wis
consin culture were found in this,
mining community. When Wiscon-
sin was organized as a territory in
1886, the mining region had larger
population, and a more settled mode
Of life than any other section. 1t

element and few slaves were kept
for domestic purposes.

Notes

The heavy hitters for the schedule
just closed were Wigen, Lee, Gibson,
and Kruger. Wigen batted .555 and
lead the league. Lee and Gibson
were tied with 800 and Kruger had
an average of .464.
The home run hitters were Lee,
2; Wigen, 1; Gibson, l; G. Nelson, /;
Parr, /.
Three baggers were clouted out by
Wigen, 1; Medley, /; Barg, l; Lee, 1;
Hurd, /; j. Carolan, /; Striebel, /;
Gibson, /.
Lee was the leading run getter,
scoring a total of 10, Kruger being
second with 8, Smuland and Gibson
were tied for third honors, each eros
sing the pan seven times.
Sam Nelson is the leading pitcher,
fifteen batters faced him and no hits
were registered off his delivery.
The first game of the second half
was played Tuesday night and was a
hard fought contest. The Foxes and
Hurds crossed bats and the Hurdites
were the victors by score of 5 to 3.
The Hurdsmen had on their batting
clothes and Allard, Parr and Lee
each polled out two baggers. Nine
hits were chalked up to the credit of
Capt. Bob's team while the Fox
bunch only scraped five together.
Russ of the Fox clan tried some dar-
ing base stealing but was caught at
the act each time and neatly tagged
out.
Tonight the Medleys and Smulands
are hard at it.

THREE IN FIELD
FOR DIST. ATTORNEY

1t is now reported that, instead OF
a search being made for someone to
accept the District Attorneyship of
Pierce county to succeed Atty. K. S.
White, resigned, there are now three
candidates in a receptive mood.
Two are said to be non-residents
who proclaim their willingness to
locate at Ellsworth if appointed, and
the third is a Spring Valley attorney
long established in the county.
Atty. Whites resignation is to
take effect July l, so it is probable
that the appointment will be an
nounced this week.

PRESCOTT TAKES ONE
FROM LEGION NINE

Umpiring which Disguised the
home players even more than the
visitors spoiled what might have
been a real good game of baseball at
Prescott last Sunday when the local
American Legion team appeared
there against Leseman's outfit.
Prescott had plenty to win without
the raw assistance of his nibs, the
jumps, but it would have been a much
better game had it not been for the
arbiter's too obvious and unsports-
manlike idea of loyalty to the old
home town.
The final score was 8 to 1 in favor
of Prescott.
