Cool weather of the past few

say, but no shortage or immed-

However the usual percentage Of
homes have their winter supply of
fuel stored by now according to
Charles S. Merrick, Of the Merrick-

one-third Of the furnace feeders are

two thirds always wait until cold

a price approximating that of coke,
a survey Of local conditions showed.
The strike in the anthracite coal
fields in Pennsylvania is the reason.
Indianapolis is a big user Of Poca-
hontas coal in residences, coal deal
ers said. This particular brand Of
coal is the best substitute for hard
coal, and is being diverted to east
ern markets. Whereas, 1t is now
quoted at 50 to $3.50 for superior
grades, a year ago it was selling at
So and $S.25.
Local users probably will find a
substitute in West Virginia lump, 1t
was said, which is quoted at Sc to
$3.50 a ton. Plenty of the latter
and Of Indiana coal is available.
Pocahontas coal runs in price
from 81 to $3.50 for lump coal, quo
tations show. Brazil block is quoted
at Sc, while Indiana lump is IS, and
some places two tons for $3.50.
Coke is selling at $3.50 a ton.
Little Anthracite
Little anthracite coal is on hand,

Anyway, the sound Of the shovel

He was to build a fire at the
place where they were to land.
The spy was captured and tor
tured until he told his mission.
The mainland Indians waited un-
til a stormy day and then built
big fire at a point of rocks. The
islanders came across in their
boats but were dashed against
those rocks with such force that
they were killed. Since then it
has been called Deaths Door.

Opinions of Others
BIDS FAREWELL
Editor Askov American.

Editor Askov American:
| am bidding you all farewell,
please do not shed any tears.
Oh yes! be sure to accuse me of
being a gutter. However the
editor refuses anything, only ar
ticles by 100 per cent Americans,
like Nickles N. Dimes, Hon. Chas.
M. Babcock and Hogan Nero. Co.
How | do wish these 100 per cent
Americans would be content with
so and 1916 per cent American
ism and leave a measily little
lie per cent Americanism for
me. Oh joyl Wouldn't that be
great?
In closing allow Mr.. Babcock's
attention to be called to the fact
that | am paying a gas tax,
though he promised me immmi-
ty.
One hundred per cent Ameri-
cans are so wonderful, so consid-
crate, may God bless them; for
they are perfectly adorable.
Yes, God bless them, while
make my exit. Respectfully,

I'VE had five Danish farmers but
two of them went and hung
themselves last winter, so now
we have only three left" 1t was

and as if she did not miss them
much. Being Danes we did not
leave our card.
There is but little farming way
up in the northernmost point OF
the peninsula. Aside from the
highway alongside which are
buildings here and there and
small villages it resembles the
thick forest of northern Mime
sofa.
After the fish dinner we drove
along for another mile and then
got out and walked a half mile to
the very point of the peninsula
called Deaths Door. This is
where the waters of Green bay
and Lake Michigan meet causing
great current and is a dangerous
waterway. 1t derives it's name
of Deaths Door from an Indian
legend. AS the story goes Wash
ington Island, IA miles across
the water from ellis Rock, was
inhabited by a tribe of Indians
long before the white man came,
and the mainland by another
tribe. Enmity existed between
the two bodies and the Washing
ton Island tribe sent a spy over
to locate a good landing place so
they could come over and do
away with the mainland Indians.

A SEA LYRIC

There Is no music that man has heard
Like the voice OF the minstrel sea.
Whose major and minor chords are
With infinite mystery.
For the sea is a harp. and the winds of
Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep of their mighty
wings
The song of vast unrest.
There is no passion that man has sung
Whose tide responds to the moons soft
light
With a marvellous melody
For the sea is harp. and the winds
of God
Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep OF their mighty
wings
The song OF vast unrest.
There is no sorrow that man has
known
Like the grief of the wordless main.
With an untranslated pain.
For the sea is harp. and the winds OF

Play over his rhythmic breast
And bear on the sweep of their mighty
wings
The song of vast unrest.

for the end of the peninsula, pass

Ellison Bay, Garrett Bay and
finally ellis Rock. Most of those

There is some farming but
mostly fruit raising, Door county
being nationally known for its
cherries land apples. The big
cherry orchards are principally
around Sturgeon Bay where it is
claimed they have the largest
cherry canning factory in the
world. The factory, however had
made its seasons run and was
closed so we could not see it in
operation. Cherry trees are
planted 20 feet apart and it is
said that they have to be 10
years old before bearing much
fruit. BY the way, before we
left Sturgeon Bay Wednesday
morning we visited an office of

Chamber of Commerce of that

Seeing Door County and
Other Wisconsin Points

The editor of the American to
gether with his family enjoyed .
vacation over in Wisconsin the
latter part Of August which we
have thought if related in part
might be of interest TO some Of
our readers.
We left Askov in our little
Henry on Friday morning. Aug
81. intending to be gone only five
days for brief visit with friends
at Withee, Wis. and were accom-.
panied by Mrs. Peter Johanser
who went over to visit her folks
there.
The journey to Withee was
made over Highway No. / To
White Bear, then over a less
travelled highway to Saltwater
No. 35 to Hudson, No. IL to Me
nomonie, No. 116 to Chippewa
Falls and No. 16 to Withee. One
Is greatly impressed with the
beautiful farming country just
east of Hudson, large well kept
farms and excellent roads, but
the country east Of Hudson to
Chippewa Falls seems to have
suffered greatly from the
drought. in fact we saw no farm
ing country so dried up as that
on the entire trip. The pastures
had turned brown and one was at
a loss to figure out how the cattle
could do much grazing. Trees
along the roadside were dust
and the buildings even
presented a dirty appearance.
But from Chippewa Falls east it
looked better and at Withee, only
about 40 miles from there. the
pastures were much greener. The
land around Menomonie is very
rolling. About 25 miles east Of
Hudson at Baldwin is one of the
largest cooperative creameries in
the United States.
Arriving at Withee Friday eve
ming we went right TO the home
of our hosts, Mr.. and Mrs. V. A.
Hansen. where we spent some
very pleasant days in company
with them and other friends.
Two trips were made to Green
wood. IL miles south of Withee,
where picnic lunch and outdoor
life was enjoyed at a very pretty
and well arranged park and bath
ing beach on Black river.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hansen had ar
ranged pleasant surprise and
asked il we would like to take a
three day trip over into histori-
cal Door county, the peninsula
projecting up between Green bay
and Lake Michigan. As the
writer had only been absent
from the American office on
two publication days previous to
this in the eleven years as editor
here. we felt a longer vacation
might be good and lost no time in
calling over the telephone to find
out If everything was O. X. at
home. The report was: work is
coming in fine since you left so
you had better stay away a little
longer, go to IT,"
Well, on Tuesday morning. Aug.
%. the two families were off for
Door county in Mr.. Hansen's
Hudson coach. The route follow
ed was Highway No. Is to Green
Bay. One Of the larger cities
passed through was Wausau and

RELIEVING TRADE RESTRAINT

Undoubtedly the pendulum of pub
lie sentiment is swinging away from
the radical restrictions, which were
sought to be applied few years ago
to the growth Of business enterprise
in this country. 1t seems to be one
Of the characteristics of public SEN
timent to turn now one way, and
again, another. Added to this are
changes in conditions, such as for
eign competition with huge business
concerns for the world trade and
the tendency of modern business
methods.
The situation naturally suggests
that this approval of big business
methods may in time go too far but
it does not appear we are yet on that
bridge. Notwithstanding within a
few days a decision Of the Supreme
Court indicates a noticeable change
of opinion respecting the legality of
certain methods under which 1t has
been charged that price fixing has
been carried on by way Of exchange
between these concerns of informa-
ton about their prices, production
