So Says Grant Citizen Who
EXtols Beauties of South
western Wisconsin.

Ever since [ first saw in print the
slogan Grant county, the California of
Wisconsin, I have felt growing re-
sentiment at the implication it contains.
Grant county possesses everything
California has not, but would like to
have, and California contains every
thing that Grant county is thankful it
has not, so the two are opposites.
People who have lived here all their
lives take things as they find them
in this county for granted and think
probably conditions are better else
where. They do not realize that south
western Wisconsin is the most beauti-
full spot in the United States. The
Booster club of southern California
must have hired all the circus publici-
ty men who were out of jobs through
the consolidation of many into two.
They write their accounts of southern
California with the same abandon of
facts, the same theory advanced by P.
L. Barnum, that "the American people
like to be humbugged."
The best way for a Wisconsinite to
be disillusioned is to go to California;
also it is the most superior way to ap-
III SCIdIS vi duI equity. AlC6I you
have seen the west and then again
view Grant county you marvel at its
luxurious beauty.
The view from Lookout Point in Mel
son Dewey State Park, Grant county,
is unquestionably the most beautiful
view to be found in this country.
When they began, and got the habit of
extolling the beauty of Harper's Ferry,
the public knew nothing of our section.
Fort Crawford did not then exist So
it is our duty to let the world know
about the lavish manner used by Ma
lures Masters when she adorned Grant
county.
Our invitation to the tourists of the
world, in search of beauty, should be:

COMPARISON OF GRANT COUNTY
AND CALIFORNIA, PRESUMPTUOUS

Come to Grant county and see what
Adam and Eve lost by their disobed-
ience."
The truth will come out in time and
a Wisconsin lady who had migrated
to California wrote the following vers-
es in response to request made by
the Booster club of southern Californ-
ia, that its citizens write their friends
back east, an invitation to come TO
California. She wrote them. Here
they are:
Oh, come to this land of the Western Sun,
Where every business is overdone,
Where the stores charge freight on the
goods made here,
Ask them the reason, they think you
queer.
They serve you climate with all your meals;
It's so blamed hot your back just peels.
The 'Ananias Club" includes the state from
San Diego to the Golden Gate.
marry again if the way were clear,
The grapefruit here is something fine, cross
between lemon and pumpkin rind.
Where the cows eat barley instead of hay,
and gets lost in the Milky Way.
They sell you lots that made by hand,
and make you believe it is really land.
The view of the ocean is very nice-that is
included in the price,
They weigh the sack and then the fruit
they weigh them again and their fingers
to boot.
They claim it is wet if it rains once a year;
you get so dry you can't shed tear.
The chickens have mites, the dog has feas
the desert wind blows, the oranges
freeze;
We shovel sand, you shovel snow; just
stand-off, far as I know.
So tune up your fivver and start for the
West where jobs are scarce and pay is
less.
Bring all your cash and plenty of clothes;
when you'll get any more, the Lord on
~ knows.
am telling this story which I know is
true,
AS seen by me through eyes of blue.
If the Booster Club ever gets this back,
They will change my eyes from blue to
black.
They asked me to write the truth TO a
friend;
Now I have done so. and this is the end
Sincerely,
LOUIS NJ. DIXON

America-the rattle snake or the cop
perheads?
Ans.-The rattlesnake is considered
the deadliest poison, but the copper
head is the most dangerous, because

yellow for mourning instead of black

ope at least two centuries earlier.
They are now found in every country
of Europe, Asia, Africa and America.
G. E., Cobb wish to ask you if
money is made of pure gold? If not
what is it made of, and is it as valu-
able as pure gold?
Ans.-The gold coins of most coun-
tries are alloyed with some other met
ais Generally copper to harden them.
The amount of the alloy is generally
fixed by law. the United States it is
nine-tenths copper and one-tenth sill
yer; in England one-twelfth is used.
Pure gold is a little more valuable
than alloyed gold.
G. S., Cassville.-Why are so many
men afraid to talk back to their
wives?
Ans.-Because there are so many
that haven't Progressive.

A JUST TAX
(St. paul Daily NeWs)

tSt. Paul Daily NewS)
With the first collection yester-
day of gasoline tax of cents a
gallon, new policy was inaugural
ed for raising of highway funds
which is certain TO suprllnt with
in few years the present automo-
bile tax system.
1t .is proper that it should. be-
cause the way highway funds are
raised now is unfair and unjust.
BY way of example, take two men
with the same make Of car. One
will dive 500 miles during sea-
son. and the other 100000 miles.
Yet both pay the same tax. This
is not right.
Under the gasoline tax method,
the one who drives 500 miles will
pay accordingly and the one driv-
ing 100000 miles likewise will pay
for the benefits he receives as a
consequence of highway improve
ment. That is the equitable way
to collect money for operations Of
the highway department.
While the gasoline tax may seem
somewhat severe when imposed on
top of automobile taxes this year,
yet it is method Of taxation that
should be encouraged and demand
eL' by every automobile owner.
When the 1927 legislature meets.
one of the first actions it should
take is to abolish practically all
present automobile taxes and i'm
pose gasoline tax sufficiently
high to provide all the funds need
ed for highway development.
