Address JOHN Dfl y Agent. Lancaster, Wisconsin THE APPLE CROP IS SHORT. Statistics Indicate the Yield Is Not Nearly What It Should Have Been Through the Country. Captain Handly of Quincy, secretary of the Mississppi Valley Apple Grow ers association, is in receipt of statistics of the crop this year through out the Unied State*. The figures at hand place it at 25,000.000. This is quite a few apples but nothing like what the crop should be Twenty years ago when there was not within 100,000 acres as much apple orchard as today the crop amounted to 69,000,- 000 bushels. In the same proportion per acre there ought this year to have been a yield of 90,000,000 bushels. Captain Handly, has a letter from August Wolf, of Spokane, special cor respondent suggesting in connection with the horticultural exposition in that city next month an ‘‘Apple Week in America,” and further sug gesting that the captain take hold the idea and see if he cannut work up somehting that would boom the orchard industry.

The Wisconsin Stallion Law. Horsemen living in this anti other states have been interested, and some times even annoyed by certain provi sions of the Wisconsin stallion law. The editors ot the Wisconsin Farmer are frequently called upon to define and explain certain features of these regulations. For the benefit of recent inquirers we are here giving, in sub stance, the provisions of the law which deal with the sale of and pay ment for stallions sold in Wisconsin. This particular enactment has three main sections. The first provides that all promissory notes and other evi dences of indebtness, taken or given for any stallion shall have written or or printed thereon in red ink the words : ‘ ‘The consideration for this note is the sale of a stallion or interest therein. ” The second section specifies the penalty for taking note without the statement. By Its provisions any person who sells a stallion or in terest therein or who takes a promis sory note or other evidence of in debtedness for the whole or any part of the consideration thereof and who fails to state the consideration for said note shall be liable to a penalty equal to the face of the note so taken. The third section, which provides that notes taken for stallions are non negotiable, has provoked criticism upon the part of several horsemen. Its terms are to the effect that all notes or other evidences of indebtedness taken as the whole or a part payment for a stallion or interest therein, which shall express upon their faces [he considerations for which taken shall be non-negotiable. The object of the law was of course, to keep out of the state all irresponsible dealers. Of necessity it has practically made the discounting of notes an impos sibility, which in turn often calls for the continued investment of a large amount of capital—Wisconsin Farmer. ■ ■ ww— ■ ■ ■ ■■■ FOR SALE—A PAIR OF MOLES.

GRANT COUNTY HERALD, LANCASTER, WISCONSIN, NOVEMBER 25, 190 S Influence of The Chicago Stock Show. The International Live Stock Ex position, which will this year be held 'from November 28th to December 10th inclusive, has proved such a triumphal success, has made such phenomenal growth, has so widened its educa tional influence and has scored as such a popular attraction to ail classes, that the management found it necessary to extend the dates, thus offering exhibitors greater opportuni ties, giving visitors more comfort and granting those most directly connected with the live stock industry more time for study and research. The educational influence that radiates from this exposition cannot be overestimated, and as the live stock industry is the very life of agriculture and this great exposition its right arm, no progressive farmer or feeder can afford to ignore it. The fate of the American farmer is. to a considerable extent, bound up with the success of his keeping live stock. The father owes it to nis son to give him such training as will bring the best results, and the lessons taught at the “International” are of such a nature that they will not only create ideals, but also assure ultimate success; consequently, he should not overlook this opportunity, take advantage of the low railroad fares, acquire su<di lessons at this exposition as will prove beneficial tu him in the performance of his daily labors, and also give himself and family a change, and perhaps much needed recreation, Obituary- -Broadley. Joseph Broadley was born in Harri son township, Grant Co., Wis., June 18, 1848, and continued a resident of Grant county until the time of his death, November 10, 1908. He was united in marriage to Sarah Adkins about 40 years. To them were born nine chidren, seven of whom are now living: Mrs. Grant Oaklief, Henry, John. Mrs. Louis Behncke, Mrs. Wm. Jones, Joseph and Josephine, who still remain at home. These besides the wife and fifteen grandchildren are left to mourn the departure of one who was ever kind and thoughtful as husband and father. The funeral was held on Thursday, the 12th, conducted by Rev. Morgans of Lancaster, at British Hollow church, and the burial in the British cemetery. To our friends and neighbors who were st kind in our bereavement we extent our sincere heartfelt thanks. The Family. “IN A BAD WAY.” Many a Lancaster Reader Will Feel Grateful For This Information. When your pack gives out: Becomes lame, weak or aching ; When urinary troubles set in. Your kidneys are “in a bad way.’’ Doan’s Kidney Pills will cure you. Here is evidence to prove it: Peter Grimm, lowa St., Dodge ville, Wis.. says: ‘‘l have no hesita tion in recommending Doan’s Kidney Pills and hope that others suffering from kidney trouble may read my en dorsement and benefit by it. I suffered from weak kidneys for two or three years. I had pains in the small of my back, which were su severe at times that I could not stoop to lace my shoes and to turn in bed was an impossibility. The kidney secretions were very unnatural and gave evi dence of disordered kidneys. 1 took a great many remedies but did not receive relief until Doan’s Kidney Pills were brought to my attention. 1 procured a box and am now free from pain and my kidneys are normal. ’ ’ For sale by all dealers.

Will Patch has rented bis farm in Brodtville and will travel for a medicine company. His territory will be the county of Grant. Health not the best Mr. Patch thought the change would be beneficial. So The Herald will change back to a single issue. It is well. We never could see with high priced paper and cost of labor and other material how any county paper, semi-weekly could stand the pressure. We have known and read the Herald about 60 years and have been a contributor to its columns over 30 years. The Herald started out the exponent of Republi can principals and is still republican. The publication has witnessed wars ana rumors of war; has seen papers start up in the country flourish for a time and vanish later like a summer dream, and yet the Herald still flourishes and her principles are as true as the needle to the pole. Long live the Grant County Herald. John Jackley got home from Dakota last week. His return was hastened by the illness of his wife.
