nearly dead. A large dog was
worrying the wounded animal,
but it fled upon the approach of
the men.
There is no doubt that the deer
was the victim of wolves. At
present the heavy crust on the
snow gives those animals a big
advantage over the deer. The
deer break through but the
wolves are able to stay on the
frozen crust and inhict deadly
wounds on their prey, running
them to death. The close prox-
unity of Silver lake to the village
probably explains why the
wolves abandoned their quarry
when it was so nearly captured.

Colman and His Big Idea.

c. Francis Colman arrived
Monday from Duluth on a bust
ness visit at this center OF the
Dairy Dollar region. Mr.. Col
man is a dairy enthusiast OF the
first order. His model dairy farm
with it's blooded Guernsey herd
on the outskirts of Duluth is
nroof of that fact. Mr.. Colman
has extensive business interests
in this coming dairy county and
we hazard the guess that some
dav c. Francis will have a dairy
farm hereabouts that will rival
the famous Jean Du Luth and
Rovcroft institutions.
