Practically TIM entire tax of the
new towr of Bell, now part of Bay
field, and known as Cornucopia, has
been turned in to the county treasur-
err as delinquent. If the town of Bell
does not pay up better next year
than the same property has as a
part of Bayfield,. then there will be a
bankrupt town almost at the start,
Bell has certainly made very bad
showing as starter, and perhaps if
the county board had the matter to
do over again there would be little
hesitancy about setting off the
territory as an independent town.

subject, but the one that seems like
good theory is the superstition that a
the dirty snow was eau ,ed by the
great sand and dirt storms reported
from the plains, the dust and sand
being carried into the air and-Strik.
ing currents that drove it many
miles from its former home. 1t is
believed that at some point il
caused dirty rain and fell in the
form of snow as it swept over this
section. This seems more probable
than the statement made that the
snow was darkened by meteor dust.
Whatever made it, there is no get
ting around the fact that it was
real dirt and extended over many
miles of territory.-Bayfield Press
