NEW TRACKS FOR ORE YARDS.
Northwestern Railroad is Making Great
Preparations for Handling of
Ore this Season.

Concerning the work being done by
the Northwestern railroad in prepa-
ration for the coming ore shipping
season Wednesdays Ashland Press
contained the following:
The Northwestern railroad is. los
ing no time in getting things in read
mess for the most active ore season
In its history and improvements and
additions are not being made at Ash
land only, but changes are being
made at the mining eenters, Hurley
and Bessemer also.
Inquiry at the office of the Barnett
x Record Company reveals the fact
that the work of raising the dock will
begin tomorrow. All the piles will
be driven in about eight DAYS and
then the main structures will be
rushed. The season for the opening
OF navigation is approaching rapidly
and 1t is expected to have the dock
extensions all made and ready for use
when the opening of navigation is of
tlclally declared. 175 men are now
engaged in the work of construction
and activity at the dock and yards is
very pronounced. When the extell-
slons are made 100 additional pockets
will be had. This will substantially
increase the storage capacity of the
company's two docks.
Seven new tracks are being laid in
the Northwestern Railroad Compa-
ny's ore yards. This work gives en-
ployment to large number of men
also. About 20 ore cars can be ac-
commodated on each track. which
Will bring a total storage of close to
500 ears in the cOmpany's yards when
the new tracks are placed. This ad
dltional storage is necessitated by the
dock extensions. The yards would
be inadequate without new tracks to
hold all of the ore handled. With fiji
ty tons of ore in each car, an addi
tional storage capacity in the five
hundred cars would reach 25 900 900
tons.
1t was learned today also, that a
new track extending from point one
half mile south to a point 8-4 of
mile north of the Hurley station is
now being constructed, to facilitate
the handling of ore the coming sea
son.
During the season passed the
Northwestern Railroad handled at
Ashland through their two docks APP
proXimately 4,5OO,O 900 tons of ore.
Next season the tonnage is expected
to be much larger and from present
indications the docks will be worked
to capacity and the record of all pre-
ceding years will be smashed.

Printers Supplies Cost More.

Although there have been marked
increases during the last year in the
materials used by printers, more in
creases are expected in the next few
months. No one will venture to say
what the situation will be if the war
continues another year.
Paper, inks, types, printers rollers,
machinery and metals of various
kinds have all advanced. Paper, n
various grades, has gone up from to
20 per cent. Printers have to pay tor
ink from Is to 150 per cent more than
a year ago. Only slight increases have
been made in the cost of type to us.
Colored paper is becoming scarce
So far it has been possible to get it
because large stocks were on hand
when the war broke out and the man
ufacturers have been able to get col
oring matter. But now the stocks are
low and the supply of coloring matter
is nearly gone. 1t is impossible to sag
what the increase is on these papers,
t9r the prices are constantly going
up. Up to the present time, the in
crease runs from 25 to 30 per cent
Printers cannot make prices % big
jobs until they have verified each quo
tation from the .obbers.
Ia fact. he prices of paper are be-
ing changed almost every twenty -four
hours by the manufacturers 1t is de-
clared th@t no price is allowed to
stand for long, that some kinds have
gone up only per cent, while most
grades about 10 per cent. while a few
have increased IS TO 25 per cent.
There has been an increase of aboet
- per cent in zinc etchings and half
tones, electrotypes have gone upabout
10 per cent. Further big increases are
to be expected in a month or six
weeks. Chicago prices have been above
those of elsew here for about three
months.
Prices of All chemicals are consts Ia
ly mounting, some having increaged
500 per cent.

NEW RECORD is SET.
Red Cross Christmas Seals Bring In
Over $4,000 For Fight Against
tuberculosis n Wisconsin.

Approximately $50, 900 worth of
Red Cross Christmas Seals sold in
the State of Wisconsin in the 1915
selling campaign. the state sale be-
ing 81 900 better than the preceding
year when total of s95 ,094. Is smash
ed all previous records. This record
of an increasing sale each year save
one since the organization of the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis Associa-
tion, which has been entirely financ-
ed from the very beginning by the
sale of the little Christmas stickers,
is remarkable evidence of the grad
ual and permanent awakening of the
public to a sense of its personal inter
est and responsibility in the cam
paign which is being waged against
tuberculosis and preventable disease
and which is given a large share of
tse credit for the fact cited in the
census bureaus recent report that
deaths from tuberculosis have fallen
off 25 per cent in the last ten years
Continued and increasing support are
encouraging proof of the fact that the
interest in the public movement is
not spasmodic, but that it is to be a
fight to the finish.
Rural districts and the smaller
communities of the state are largely
responsible for this years seal sale
gain. Milwaukee also won new hon
ors this year, the sale in this city be-
ing over Sli 900 as against Sg,018.32
in 1914. In many of the larger cities
however, the sale fell off, fact eX-
planned in some instances by epide-
mics of whOoping cough and measles
which interfered seriously with the
sales by the school children. The
fact that this loss was more than off
set by the accumulated gains in the
rural schools and smaller cOmmuni-
ties is regarded as a striking illustra-
tion of the soundness of the financi-
al policy which recognizes at it's full
NdihC L l1C L Wv CA VI Il / NlAn tlC
deeper significance, however, lies in
the educational value of a campaign
which brings support from thousands
of small contributors rather than
from few large ones.
Under the plan by which certifi-
Gates of honor were awarded to rur-
al school children selling 25, 80 or 100
seals and to school children in cities
which took advantage of the plan on
the sale of larger amounts of seals,
over 20, 900 certificates have been sent
out by the Wisconsin Anti -Tubercu-
losis Association. Trades unions
throughout the state took an active
part in the campaign, the union sale
reported up to date being S4S6. II with
quite number still to be heard
from. Reports from communities
have been slow in coming in and
there are still 300 rural school teach
ers and 80 local managers to be heard
from.

J. A. Aker, father of J. Aker
living on the Cave place north
of town, was killed in a run
away last Sunday morning.
The old gentleman arrived
here from Florida the evening
of the 4th for a visit with his
son and intended to remain
the summer. Early Sunday
morning he hitched up a horse
to the buggy and started for
L. Evoy's place, known as the
Tarman farm, for water. On
the way back the animal be-
came frightened at something
and started to run and just be-
fore reaching home struck a
ditch alongside the road, throw
ing Mr.. Aker out on his head.
He died within five minutes.
The funeral was held at the
NJ. E. church Monday after.

in the cemetery east of town.

and stopped with a jerk that sent the
horses almost on their launches.
Inside the coach, the people started

And Wayne slipped down from the
coach, but stopped. for the old gen.

Lewis suddenly felt the touch Of

voice from the zeal of the coach, the
man on horseback wheeled his horse
and started on a headlong gallop down
the gulch road, but Lewis fired after
him, bringing the horse to his knees,
and he lay motionless with his rider
under him.
1t had all happened so suddenly that
the girls and women had watched the
scene in silent horror. Claire was
first to note the surprising change in
