Purchases Launch.

Last week Friday deal was culmin-
ated whereby Oscar X. Lundberg, OF
Skanee, is now the proud owner of the
natty little gasoline launch Cora B."
which plyed the waters of the bay and
the Portage during the past few sea-
sons under the ownership and master
hand of C. H. Anderson.
Mr.. Anderson, being interested in
the hotel business in L'Anse, found il
impossible to carry on the boat business
and found ready purchaser in Mr..
Lundberg, who will devote the ap.
preaching summer to making business
and pleasure trips between various
points along the coast line.
The Cora B".will be thoroughly ov.
erhauled before the season opens and
put into frst-class condition for the
handling of both freight and passenger
traffic, and as it is one of the safest
and most seaworthy crafts Of the north
waters, nothing but success can &C
company its new owner in the future,
As soon as the season is open Mr.
Lundberg will issue a time table fol
the benefit of prospective customers.

Many Attended Party.

st. Patrick's day, and especially the
evening was very noticeably observed.
The day was recognized by nearly ev-
eryone wearing the emblem, while in
the evening the Ladies' Auxiliary, of
L'Anse, delightfully."- entertained at q
progressive pedro party in the Town
Hall.
There was an excellent turnout of
people, a number coming from Baraga
and Pequaming, and from early in the
evening until late all enjoyed them
selves to the utmost.
A luncheon was served at the close
of the games, after which all departed
for their various homes.

y. Of N. Athletic Board Hopes to Pre-.
vent Recurrence Of I'M" Scandal.

That the athletic rules Of the Uni
versity of Michigan are to be changed
so as to avoid recurrence Of the scan
dal, because Of the failure Of Primeau,
of Marquette, and Brennan, of L'Anse,
to receive "M's" for football, is the
statement made by the Detroit Free
Press, in an Ann Arbor dispatch. We
quote as follows:
Unless the present plans Of the new
Athletic association constitution COM
mittee fail, Michigan is likely never
again to be confronted with such q
scandal as attended the awarding Of
football ms" last fall. At the close
of the season it was considered certain
that Brennan would receive the varsity
letter, as, besides taking part in near
ly all of the minor games, he played q
large part of the second half of the
game with Pennsylvania, sub
bing for Captain Schulz himself. Pri-
meau, too, was considered as prob
able recipient of the "M," as although
he did not play in the Penn game, he
was in every game of the season prior
to the contest with the Quakers. AS a
result, when Captain Schulz's award
was made, ignoring both of these men,,
everyone was surprised, and not a few
were indignant.
In order to prevent possible recur-
renee of such conditions, the constitu-
ton reform committee will recommend
that in future, while the awarding of
the ms" Of each department Of ath-
letics will be left to the captain of that
particular department, the list must be
first submitted to the board of direct
ors Of the Athletic association. The
board, meeting with the captain max
ing the award, will have power either
to ratify the list as submitted, or to
make whatever changes it deems reas-
enable.
Judging from frequent expression of
opinion, the change will be one of the
most popular ones that will be recon-
mended by the committee.

Candidates Galore.

From all appearances, L'Anse is to
enjoy the distinction of having decid-
edly large caucus. Candidates are
springing up from all directions for
nearly Office on the list and in every
case it is going to be up to the electors
to do some tall thinking. So far, ev-
eryone who has come out open and
above-board are men of standing in the
community and to pick choice among
them is going to be a matter of no lit
tie consequence. AN have friends and
acquaintances on all sides who would
like to see them have the Office for
which they seek, and the outlook is
that one of the biggest caucuses which
has ever been held in the township will
occur this spring, and lively battle Of
ballots ensue.

Ballots WIN BE Big.

Again the voters will be called upon
at the Spring election to wrestle with
an ungainly ballot, as was the case at
the National election.
The ballots this spring will bear
tickets for state officers, on the Re
publican, Democrat, Prohibition, So
cialist and Socialist Labor party, along
with that Of County Road Commission
er and the one or more township. tick
cts such as may be framed up during
the next week or SO in the various
townships. In general size they will
be but few inches shorter than those of
November.

Had Enjoyable Meeting.

One of the most successful and en-
joyable meetings which have been held
this winter by the Women's Home
Missionary society, took place at the
home Of Mrs. C. p. Blankenhorn last
week.
The time was devoted to the study Of
an important Historical work and
splendidly interspersed with a musical
and literary program, followed by q
dainty luncheon.
Everything possible was done by the
hostess and her assistants to make the
afternoon most delightful one, and
from what we are informed was not
lacking in any manner.

Why Wheat Is High.

For years and years the farmers
dreamed Of dollar wheat. Now the
dream has come true. What is better
from the farmers standpoint, is that
the condition is apt to continue. Jas.
J. Hill is noted railroad man. But
he has built his tracks through new
countries, where it was essential that
agriculture be promoted if his lines
were to be provided with tonnage. So
it happens that he has studied agri-
culture as carefully as he has studied
railroading, and his opinion on the
matter should be worth something.
His explanation of the high prices Of
wheat, and why they are likely to con-
tinue. is this: Of the nations popula-
ton, IS per cent. are living in the
centers of population. That means
they do not raise what they eat, and
it provides problem for the other 35
per cent. The law Of supply and de-
mand is stronger than Patten or all
the NapOleOns of the board of trade.
They may boost or lower prices little
by manipulation and corners, but they
cannot greatly lower the general level.
And what is true of wheat applies to
other grains and farm products in
some degrees. Land values are high
and growing higher, but. notwith-
standing that fact, this seems 4 poor
time to sell the farm.

there is good supply in the Yellow
stone valley every fall, is an excellent
feed for old ewes in connection with
alfalfa.
Feeding Alfalfa Hay to Horses.
1t seems to be the general opinion
that alfalfa hay is not good horse
feed, and especially for horses on the
road or fast work. Now l would like
to correct this, as alfalfa is too good
feed to be condemned for any pur-
pose. The fact is, nearly every one
who feeds horses feeds them too
much: the same would apply to all
kinds of hay. The same complaint
would come if they were to feed too
much grain Of any kind. If you give
a horse about what alfalfa he should
have, say twelve to fifteen pounds per
day for horse Of 1000 pounds, and
a fair grain ration, you will find he
will travel just as far and just rs fast
as with other kinds of hay, and be in
better conditions. But if you allow
the horse to eat thirty or forty pounds
per day, which they will if you give
it to them, you are sure to have
horse that is short winded and sloppy.
am reliably Informed that the great
horse Croesus is fed alfalfa the year
round.
This might be an Opportune time to
say that the majority of farmers feed
too much hay Of all kinds to their
horses. In fact, the horse barn is
where there is one of the greatest
wastes on the farm. Horses would
travel better, work better and he
healthier if fed less hay.
