Senator McGovern went so far at the hearing as to foreshadow favorable ac- tion from the committee on approprla- tions along these lines.

TRAVELLING BY sNowsHoEs.

Remarkably good time is made on snowshoes by settlers and trappers in northern Minnesota" said B. E. Stry- ker, a Minneapolis fur buyer. Tt is no uncommon thing for a man to travel twenty miles through the forest in half @ day, and in a case of emergency much better time than this is made. The snowshoer generally picks out the bed of a creek or river for walking on, If one happens to be handy. By doing this he gets a clear path and does not have to bother with fallen trees and brush.
 "In a region where a persons nearest neighbor is perhaps five miles distant, distance does not count for much. have known cases where men have travelled fifteen miles to go to a dance, just as we read of their doing in the far west, the only difference being that in Minnesota the enthusiasts generally travel on foot, where in the west horses are brought into service. De- spite the fact that they live so far apart the settlers manage to see each other pretty often and are constantly visiting back and forth. You see they haven't much to do in the winter time and can afford to spend lots of time walking. Duluth Herald.
