TAKESJSREMiTTEB
FUNDS IN TREASURY SUFFICI
ENT TO HELP BEAR COST
OF GOVERNMENT.
LEVY IS $34,00J BELOW 1911
Governor Discovers There l<; Money-
Enough on Hand to Nsar.y Mee,
Appropriations Made at the Last
Legislative Session.
Madison.—A remission of $940,-
135 from the tax levy as recently
made was ordered by the state board
of assessment which consists of Gov.
McGovern, Secretary of State Frear
and State Treasurer Dahl.
This means that instead of a total
levy of 15,557,255.95 the actual to
tal levy will be but $4,517,020.95;
that instead of an increase of $961,-
996.42 over the total levied in 1910
for the tax of 1911, the increase ia
only $21,761.42. It means more
than this, for the amount remitted
exceeds the amount of all the in
creases of special appropriations
made by the legislature of 1911 by
$6,973, and were it not for the in
crease of the amount levied for spe
cial charges against the counties the
total of the levy would be consider
ably less than that of a year ago.
The remission is made possible by
the large income the state has re
ceived from the inheritance tax and
other sources of indirect taxation.
The present remission is of the
special appropriation for the new
capltol $450,000, and the appropri
ation for the normal schools, $490,-
235, making a total of $940,235.
The condition that made this re
mission of tax possible, almost neces
sary in lact, was that there appeared
in the treasury an extraordinary
balance on Oct. 27, 1311, of $2,499,-
135.28, a sum in excess of that in
the same fund on the same date a
year ago by $1,231,738.33 and sl,-
651,667.51 more than was in that
fund on the same date In 1909. Fol
lowing is a statement of the bal
ances in the general fund on Oct. 27
of the three years:
1909 $ 847,470.77
1910 1,267,399.95
1911 2,499,138.28
FOREST COUNTY CASES END
Prosecution of Graft Charges Brings
SII,OOO Into Treasury and 55,-
fKO More Will Be Secured.
Crandon.—The “graft” investiga
tions and fight which has been rag
ing in Forest county for the last nine
months was practically closed at the
recent term of Circuit court in which
thirty-seven criminal actions and
thirteen civil suits were disposed of.
Of the total number of criminal suits
all but three were disposed of, those
affecting one man who secured a con
tinuance. Some were convicted, oth
ers pleaded guilty and the rest com
promised without coming to trial. Of
the civil suits, all were settled out of
court.
It is probable that a few may be
appealed, but the prosecution has
brought over SII,OOO into the treas
ury and it is expected that about
$5,000 more will be added to this
sum.
Attorney A. C. Umbreit, Milwau

I NO ENLARGED CAPITOL
COMMISSION DECIDES NOT TO
MAKE CHANGE IN BUILDING
PLANS OF STATE HOUSE.
Structure, Which Will Cost $7,000,
000, to Be Ful.y Completed
in Four More Years.
Madison.—The capitol building
commission will not change the
plans of the new statehouse so as to
provide for a larger assembly cham
ber. The present chamber ! n the
west wing of the new capitol will
continue to be used by the lower
house of the legislature and a small
er chamber for the senate will bo
prepared in the south wing, w'hich is
now under construction.
The plans have been partly
changed so as to provide for larger
rooms for legislative committees
than those first adopted. The sen
ate at the last session of the legis
lature reduced the number of its
standing committees from seventeen
to five, but increased the member
ship of each committee, thus requir
ing larger committee room’s but
few r er of them. To meet this change
the plans for committee rooms for
the senate were altered by the cap
itol commission. Tv/o of the four
wings of the new capitol have been
finished, another is about to be
roofed and the steel work for the
central or dome part has been fin
ished. It is planned lo complete the
wing now building end the dome
part before the next legislature
meets, leaving only one wing, the
north, to be built hereafter. It is
estimated that it wall take the entire
fourteen months intervening before
the next legislature meets to com
plete the work now in hand. All of
the wotk on the new' capitol has been
pushed faster this year than at any
time since it w T as begun about six
years ago. The new capitol will
probably be finished within four
years and will cost about $7,000,000.

GRAVITY CHUTE FOR PICKING
Will Reach to Top of Twenty-Five
Foot Ladder and Convey Fruit to
Baskets on Ground.
A fruit-plcklng chute which will
reach to the top of a 25-foot ladder
and convey the fruit to baskets on the
ground, has been invented by a fruit
grower of Orange county. New York,

chute is made of canvas and is provid
ed with pockets so spaced as to al
low the dropping of fruit Into it from
any rung of the ladder.
It may be attached to any ladder by
means of straps, and. as It does not
add more than ten pounds to the
weight, the ladder may be carried
around and placed against the trees
in the usual way. Two baskets are
placed on the ground to receive the
fruit as it drops from the trough pro
vided to make the fall light. When
one is filled, the picker tips the end of
the trough into the other by means of
a simple arrangement always within
reach.
KNIFE IS USEFUL IMPLEMENT
Handy In Orchards for Snipping Off
Bunches of Grapes or Other
Fruit Without Injury.
A man In the fruit country of Lower
California has designed a thumb knife,
which is a very handy little Imple
ment for snipping off bunches of
grapes or other fruit. A metai thim
ble has a sharp cutting blade project
ing from the end. like a long thumb
nail. Along the mouth of the thimble
is a row of perforations for the pur
pose of sewing It to a cloth finger
stall, which in turn has a drawing
string at Its open end. With this lit
tle implement fastened on his thumb,
a man can pinch fruit off the vines
and trees with great rapidity and
without injuring it lu the least. Just

Pruning Trees.
Never remove a limb which there Is
not a good reason for taking out You
can take it out mighty easy, but you
can’t put it back Never take out a
limb this year that you are sure will
not do any harm if you do not take It
out until next year Certainly the
diseased wood must be taken out; all
limbs tnat are so diseased where there
Is no hope of recovery from any treat
ment. Here Is another mistake:
Very many times those limbs are
taken out and are left lying in the
orchard, and the spores of disease in
them will infect healthy wood very
nearly as well, from the limbs on the
ground as If left on the trees. They
ought to be removed
Strawberry Plant.
I Inspected three or four strawber
ry patches this summer that have been
winners in producing large crops. In
no instance were there more than 75
plants or bibs and the owners in each
case claimed a yield this year of not
less than 50 quarts of fine berrifes. The
patches have been highly manured,
mulched every fall and kept absolutely
‘ree from weeds, says a writer in an
xchange. This sort of treatment al
ays brings results In growing the
trawberry, of which the author, E. P.
Loe. said. “Gcd might have made a

PRUNE AND SPRAY IN WINTER
Unless There Are Large Number of
Trees Warmer Weather of Feb
ruary or March Will Do.
Pruning and spraying are the two
operations that can be successfully
carried on in midwinter, says the Su
burban Life The pruning of all trees
can be done, but unless there is a
large number the warmer weatber of
late February or early March will
make the work less dlsagreable
Grapes, however, can be pruned to da
vantage now. as tl.e wounds will then
have become hardened before the sap
begins to flow
Spraying is important, for the San
Jose scale must be killed in order to
have perfect fruit; and then there are
other insects, such as the aphids,
which winter in the egg stage on the
bark. The same spray that kills the
San Jose scale will destroy these
eggs.
Brown-tail moths will be found in
what appear to be nothing but crum
bled leaves. The tent caterpillar may
be found in the form of eggs, a mass
of them in a brown, shiny mass encir
cling the twigs of apple and other
trees. The white-marked tussock can
be told by its frothy white covering:
these moths are particularly fond of
plum trees, but are often found on
other trees Cut off the twigs hold
ing these insects.
If the rough bark of apple and other
trees Is scraped with a hoe or similar
tool, many insect eggs will be re
moved All primings, scrapings and
insect cocoons should be burned
Clean out thoroughly and plug with
cement any holes in the fruit trees.
If thoroughly cleaned, decay will be
stopped, and filling the hole.s will pre
vent gypsy moths or other Insects
from finding a home.
The meadow mice, which frequently
injure fruit trees so badly during the
winter by girdling them, burrow un
der the snow. If no protection baa
been given the trees against them,

thus encourage ihe plants to stool out
and become bushy In autumn, pot
these, with good drainage, gel them
established for the window, and they
will bloom during the winter. Water
moderately when In pots, and do not
allow the sun to shine against the
sides of the pot. They like a rather
warm, moist atmosphere.
For Beautiful Dahlias.
Keep the dahlias well tied up. Thin
out the plants that are inclined to
produce so many branches that the
air cannot circulate freely through
them. If the season Is dry It will
be necessary to apply at least, a
pailful of water daily to each plant.
Keep the ground well hoed and mulch
it with grass clippings from the lawn.
Apply water after sundown and see
that it gets close to the base of the
plants. For this purpose use a water
ing pot with a long spout.
Much Fruit on Little Ground,
The area required for the produc
tion of fruit for the use of the aver
age family need not be large If good
care is given. One acre devoted to
the orchard and vine fruits in approx
imately the following number will
give ample variety and quality.
Twelve apples, six each of pear, plum,
peach, sour cherry, sweet cherry,
quince and grape. Three Hundred
strawberry plants, twenty-five each of
black and red raspberries, twelve cur
rants and twelve gooseberries.
Strawberry beds need looking after.
Apples should be picked and han
dled carefully.
There is a growing demand for
gooseberries and currants.
You cannot prune too much, but you
must know what to prune away.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win tire
People's Contideneo
Have you ever stopped t reason
why tt. Is that so many products that
arc extensively advertised, all at ouco

ten? The reason la plain—the article
did not fulfil the promises of the man
ufacturer. This applies more particu
larly to a medicine. A medicinal prep
aration that has real curative value al
most sells itself, as like an endless
chain system the remedy is recom
mended by those who have beoa cured,
to those who are in need of it.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says “Taka
for example Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root,
a preparation I have sold for many
years and never hesitate to recom
mend, for in almost every case it
shows immediate results, as many of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy that I know of has so
large a sale."
The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swntnp-
Root is due to the fact that it fulfils
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder diseases, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes tho uric acid
witch causes rheumatism.
