HlBBING GETS PART OF TAXES
Receives $67,794 from Two of Eleven
Operators Who Refused to Pay
Village.

Duluth, Minnescta.-Taxes and pen
alties aggregating $67,794.84, cover
ing all mining properties at Hibbing,
Mimi, affected by state leases, were
paid into the county treasury by the
Oliver Iron Mining company and the
PickandsMather company, two of the
II operators which have refused to pay
their taxes on their Hibbing holdings
for the current year on the grounds
that the amount levied for village pur-
poses is exorbitant and invalid.
The action of the two mining CON-
panies is taken to mean that the oper-
ators are taking no chances with the
question of state leases; but is not re-
garded as any indication that they
have abandoned their fight against the
alleged extravagances of Mayor Pow
er's administration at Hibbing.

Bemidji.-Forty thousand acres of
Sand may be opened in the Lake Win
hjhigoshish district for agricultural
purposes as the result of an investiga-
t'on carried on by Congressman Lind
bergh of this district.
Part of the land in question can be
used for meadow purposes and other
parts as winter quarters for the large
herds of cattle that will roam what is
known as the national timber reserve
OF Minnesota, comprising 100000 acres
OF virgin timber situated in the coun-
ties OF Cass, Itasca and Koochiching,
and practically all of which can be
used for grazing purposes.
vt present the opportunities on the
tilnberless tracts of this reserve are
han'rered by flood conditions on the
Mississippi, Leech and other rivers,
and during the last few years the gov
eminent has constructed five reser-
vors and erected dams which, with
the dredging of the rivers, will keep
the waters at a normal stage.
Ihe idea Of leasing the lands for
the purpose OF stock raising was made
Known by Lindbergh in visit to Be-
midji, and leaving this city he went
to tass Lake. where, in company with
G. Y. Marshall superintendent of the
reserve, he visited the lands affected.

Ideal SOUP Kettle.

One of the woeful aspects Of SOUP
making in the pre-enamel-ware

iron kettle; for washing a kettle big
enough to hold q shinbone of beef
with trimmings was no joke To-
day, however, one can have the trim,
enameled kettle in any size, light, yet
strong, and all it needs is hot suds
and good rinsing to make it beauti-

ton, there is colander Of enamel
ware for straining Of the soup into
pan to match, the equipment is ideal
for cleanliness, quickness and results.
