came when Teddy Roosevelt was shot by a fanatic while on his way to make a speech at a Mil waukee ball. He went on to give the address, however.
 Wilson's campaign did not bring him the victory he won. Rather it was the Republican split. Will son, in fact, received fewer votes than had Bryan four years be- fore. But he was given more than snougn to seat him securely In the White House, there to direct the nation through eight momen- tous years of it's history. War ragged in Europe, but the United States kept the peace. dn 1916 the Democrats shouted: 'He kept us out of war" Wilson again was elected, the first Democratic President to succeed himself since Andrew Jackson.
 Election in Doubt
 Today in Supreme Court isola- ton far removed from campaign strife and chatter sits Chief Jus tice Hughes no doubt recalling that 1916 campaign. On election day it seemed certain Hughes, the Republican candidate had won Re porters who went to see him were sold, "the President has retired for the night
 But the West was not in. On 5he third day it became known def initely that Wilson had been re- elected.
 Keynoter at the Chicago con- vention which nominated Hughes was handsome Warren Harding ot Ohio. His face florid, he pounded hard on the cynnbals of patriotic generalities, putting off and on he spoke a tired prince-nez.'

 It has become almost extomatic thas major depression presages the loss of the Presidency by the party in power during the hard times. Yet William Howard Taft was. elected over William Jennings Bryan in 1908 following the panic of 1907" during the Roosevelt re- gime.
 Taft was Roosevelt's candidate and he wen handily at the con- vention, at which the name of Chief Justice Hughes first was brought into a conventions spot light,

 Among the latest death-dealing inventions for use in time of war is a winged" bullet that can pierce arnor plate half an inch thick at 8 thirty-yard range The bullet has 1.-two circular wings or fins of soft metal running around it. These fins, says Popular Mechanics Maga- zine, are compressed as the bullet forces its passage down the nar- Ilrowing barrel of tfle" rifle.
 The effect is that pressure is maintained at full intensity until the bullet reaches the muzzle, pro- dtcing the extraordinary high bull let velocity of 5000 feet per sec lond.

RARE DISEASE IN
CATTLE AT WANDA
Springfield Veterinarian Finds
Case of Johne's Disease;
Herd Guaranteed

Johne's disease, highly contagious
and rare disease among cattle, was
found in the William Eichten herd of
cattle near Wanda by DIR. B. ]. Lat
timer, Springfield veterinarian. DR..
C. A. Mack of the State Livestock
Sanitary board at St. Paul, confirmed
DR.. Lattimer's diagnosis. The herd
was put under quarantine at once and
will be tested and all reactors will be
taken out and paid for by the state.
The disease was brought into the
United States by Jersey and Guern-
sey cattle years ago. There are only
a few herds under quarantine in the
state at the present time. The cattle
become thin, mere walking skeletons
on even the best of feed, and there
is no cure for the disease. They must
be destroyed and the premises clean
ed and disinfected as it is highly i'm
portant that the disease be checked
Immediately.

LOVE OF As YEARS AGO
REvIvED-COUPLE WED

A courtship which started As years
ago but was given up because of In
tervening circumstances, eliminated
in marriage recently when Rev. Will
liam Won Fischer Of Springfield mar
ried Mrs. Emma Schaefer Of Spring
field and August Blank Of Melrose.
According to the Springfield Ad-
vance-Press, 45 years ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Blank resided with their parents
on farms near Sanborn. They met
and fell in love. Circumstances sep

ing their youthful romance. Mr..
Blank married later and became the
father of six children. Mrs. Blank

Each found happiness in their first
marriages, but death claimed the wife
of one and the husband of the other
and as time erased their sorrow, fate
stepped in and reunited them.

FLUSHING BAR WILL SAVE
THOUSANDS OF GAME BIRDS

Through the courtesy Of the Wis
consin Conservation Commission we
are able to pass on to the conserva-
tionists of our state very laudable
and practical solution Of a serious
problem.
This problem is the protection Of
nesting upland game birds such as
grouse, ring-neck pheasant and Hun
garian partridge from the hazards of
the mower engaged in cutting early
crops of hay. This applies particul-
arly to the southern half of the state,
and more so where alfalfa is the main
crop.
About the time that the alfalfa
crop is due for the first cutting,
pheasants and hungarians are well
established in their incubation; when
the mower passes over the nest-site,
even though the brooding hen does
escape the murderous knives, the nest
is exposed. In the case of the hum
garian partridge it sometimes can be
saved, as the eggs are usually placed
in depression, and the hen will re-
turn to the nest if it be partially COW
cred with hay or brush.
Even though the hen return to the
nest, the eggs are unduly exposed to
the weather and to the greatest evil
of all, the egg hunting crow, increas-
ing the chances of the eggs becoming
a total loss.
The flushing bar, portrayed in the
diagram through the courtesy of our
neighboring state, is the invention of
Conservation Warden A. j. Peterson
of Racine and is designed to flush the
nesting bird in time to save the bird
and allow operator to lift the cutter
bar of the mower so that it passes
over the nest without harming the
eggs. This will also leave sufficient
standing grass to shade and protect
the nest.
This flushing rod is an iron rod,
three-eights (3-8) of an inch in thick
ness; one end is threaded and is at
tached to the outside of the cutter.
The other end, with the hook, is hook
ed to the breeding strap at should
er of the nearest horse. All makes
of mowers have a place to which the
rod may be attached. The rod then
extends a few feet in front of the cut
ter as a fusher for any species of
birds with which it may come in con-
tact. White rags attached at inter-
walls along the rod tend to flush the
birds more quickly.
This bar has been given thorough
try out in action and the farmers Of
Racine county, Wisconsin are en-
thusiastic about the results obtained.
Leaders of conservation organizations
are recommending its use to conserva-
tion-minded farmers of Minnesota.

CONDOR, RARE BIRD, WAS
SHOT NEAR SPRINGFIELD

William Tadewalk, farmer near
Springfield, recently shot a condor in
the grove on his farm. The bird is
identical to the California species
with but one exception, that being the
wing spread, which is seven feet,
while the California birds measures
II feet.
The condor is one of the largest and
most powerful of birds, but though it
sometimes attacks living animals, it
feeds mainly on carrion. The head
and neck are bare, the plumage is
dull black in color with a downy,
white neck ruff and white patches
on the wings. The bird will be on
display at an insurance office in
Springfield.

WAR COMRADES

 AFTER 34 YEARS
Charles R. Trowbridge anc E. K. Stivers Recount
 "Reminiscences

Thirty-four years ago as troop train was pulling out of a railroad station at St. Paul, two soldiers, but recently enlisted as volunteers in the Spanish American, waved good bye to each other. They were brothers-in-law. One was Charles R. Trowbridge, then of the 18th Minnesota, depart ing for the Phil- ippines, now inspector with the De- partment of the Interior having headquarters in Denver, Colo.
 Other Was E. R. Stivers
 The other was E. R. Stivers, then of the 14th Minnesota awaiting orders to go to Cuba, now Deputy United States Collector of Customs in charge of the port of Nome, who is doing special work at customs headquarters here.
 For the first time since 1898. the two comrades met for the first time since in the Gastineau Hotel in Juneau this week.
 Came on Official Business
 MT. Trowbridge came to the city on official business. He knew MT. Stivers was here, but the latter was unaware of the formers contem- plated visit. Having arrived at midnight Saturday on the steam ship Admiral Evans, MT. Trowbridge telephoned from the hotel early Sunday morning to MT. Stivers.
 The two had joyous meeting. Since then they spent what time they could spare from business du- ties in recounting "reminiscences of younger days.
