Harry Houston left last, Monday night
for his homo at Kasson. MINI, after
spending several weeks with his brother,
Dr.. Houston. The Doctor, though still
confined to bed, is slowly recovering his
strength. He hopes to be able to take
the first boat to 90 to his old home in
southern Minnesota to visit his parents
and for recuperatton. 1929.
While walking on the ice near Good
Harbor Hill last Saturday John McKin-
ley and Alfred Nelson were surrounded
by pack of seven wolves. Mr.. Nelson
had 22-calibre revolver, which he fred
into the air several times. This had the
very much desired effect of keeping them
at distance, although they followed
the unhappy pedestrians about seven
miles. The predicament was anything
but comfortable, and the fact that it
was daylight may have saved thus from
being an obituary notice.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peterson, hailinQ from
Minneapolis, arrived here by team last
Tuesday evening, after a tedious drive
from Two Harbors. They come to make
their home in Cook county, and are
accompanied by Mrs. Peterson's sister.
They have already located on home
stead near the Monker farm in Maple
Hill township. and are now buslly pre-
pairing home there. They have a fine
team of horses, and brought nice flock
OF twenty Plymouth Rock chickens, be-
sides load of supplies sufficient to last
them until navigation opens. The peo-
pie of the township extend them Coz
dial welcome.
Sheriff Gulbransen, who has put in
the winter in Johnson's Maple Hill
camp, was in town the first of the week
and shed luxuriant growth of whisk-
ers. Mr.. Gulbransen has made small
beginning towards stocking his farm
with thoroughbred sheep, and he hopes
for good results from the experiment.
The only trouble he anticipates is from
the dogs Of the neighborhood. While
he dislikes to resort to such extreme
measures, to protect his little flock of
sheep it will be necessary for him to
shoot every dog he catches moesting
them, and he intends to do it. He gives
timely warning to all persons interested.
