A new postofice began doing bus
mess yesterday, six miles south of
Cass Lake when the first mail was
received for distribution at Raboin.
This office was established on October

until the settlers had secured the aid
OF Congressman Lindbergh in their
behalf. Raboin has one general
store and several cedar camps which
will be in operation this winter, by
Robert Jarvis of Cass Lake and Per-
rizzo & Co., of Raboin. A large
amount of cedar posts and poles will
be marketed in the new town this
winter and it is understood the rail-
road spur will be extended some 500
feet to care for the increased de-
mand, a railroad official making Wis

The western boundary of the Itasca
State Park has been established by
L. F. Johnson of this city, state fire
ranger for this district, assisted by
his son, H. w. Johnson, fire patrol
man for this district. Ranger John
son says that the boundary was es-
tablished for a distance of eight
miles, one-half mile outside the real
limits of the park. which is the limit
fixed by the state. A line four feet
wide was brushed out and cleared,
and marked plainly. Johnson says
that next year the boundary line will
be brushed wider, and that it is the
Intention of the forestry board to set
red-painted posts every twenty rods
along the line. There are a great
number of deer and partridge in the
vicinity of the park; and there is
every indication that both big and
small game go to the park as a place
of refuge where hunters are not per-
mitted to kill game of any kind.
