IMroRrAxr RULING JUST MADE


An important and far-reaching
decision was banded down by United
State Steamboat Inspectors Pardee
and Eckliff Of Grand Haven last week.
The decision means that in the future
all violations of the fishing laws on
Lake Michigan will be brought to
the attention OF the government and
all licensed captains and engineers
may lose their licenses, II the vio-
lation is recognized by the officers OF
the government.
On November II last, Chief Deputy
Game and Fish Warden Charles N.
Smith and Deputy Game Warden j..
b. Eddy left Petoskey in the gasoline
yacht Sophia, on q search for
violators Of the fishing laws. on Big
Rock poin the state officers approach

The tug proved to be the Sea Gull

suspected that the yacht was state

soon as possible. He had half mile the
start OF the Sophia, and the race that
followed was one OF the prettiest that
ever took place in the northern
Michigan waters. but after ten mile

dered. The tug was brought into
Petoskey and the captain and crew
were brought before Justice Creiger
and fined for violating the state law.
The nets, fish and Tug were conisca-
ted by the state deputies.
The matter was brought to the
attention of u. S. Inspectors Pardee
and Ecklff OF the Grand Haven
district, and they rendered a decision
10 which Captain Harris was severely
rcprimanded. In the written decision
the inspectors declared that in the
futurelicensedcapt ptains and engineers
will put their licenses 10 jeopardy If
they deliberately violate the fishing
laws Of the state of Michigan. P|
The decision means that the govern
ment is now behind the state officers
and that in the future if tug or
Fl ,hing steamer is detected IN the act
OF violating the law its captain and
engineer are label TO fine by the
government and to the possible sus
pension and reyoking OF their

Upper Peninsula A Dairy Country.

The upper peninsula, the land Of
unlimited possibilities and riches,
offers greater inducements to the
dairy farmer than any other section
in the United States. This sounds
boastful, says the Northwestern
Farmer but nevertheless is fact
proven by experience of dairymen
who have made "a lifelong study Of
the subject in this and other sections
OF the country
The upper peninsula has plenty OF
good, cool water, moderately warm
days, followed by cool nights, plenty
OF succulent grass, pastures green
until late in the fall, ia fact climate
better suited TO dairy purposes than
any other region. The unsurpassed
market facilities offer the highest
prices for the product OF the dairy,
while on account o. the excellent
flavor due to climatic conditions, the
demand is better than that of
other section Of the country.
Dairyman from other states realize
that the upper peninsula aud north
ern Wisconsin will be the coming
country for dairying, aud are making
preparations to be IN on the ground
floor. Crermeries and cheese factories
are being erected in nearly every
section Of this territory, while the
product OF the factory has taken the
first premium and blue ribbon prizes
wherever they we're exhibited and in
competition with the product OF the
older dairy sections of the country.
Land is comparatively cheap in
the sections, large farm can be
acquired with little capital to start
on, while employment can be had
everywhere near the home of the
settler. This is poor man s country
in the fullest sense OF the word, a
country which brings forth all that
is good in humanity, fostered by the
beautiful climate. ideal conditions
aud the rugged and healthy outdoor
life in the pure air in the northern
woods.
