UNLESS there is some spice thrown
into the political campaign BY the
heads of the National and State
ticket the election In Bayfield, Coun.
ty in November will be . very tame
! affair. There will be only one county
ticket in the field for the general
election, that being the Republican
ticket, and it is doubtful If the
voters will take enough interest in
the contests on the National and
State tickets to cause them to 20 to
the polls in as large numbers as they
did at the primaries.
In Bayfield, county where Demo-
Gratis are few and far between every
one takes it for granted that the Re-
publicans must surely win, and if the
rest OF the country goes as Bayfield,
county does there would easy sled
ding for the Republican ticket, and
of course with a united party this
election that will be the case anyway.
A VISIT to the Bayfield, County
Fair which is held annually at Iron
River makes one realize the rapidity
with which the farmer are branching
out into pure bred stock. This years
showing at the Iron River fair was
very creditable one and shows that
the farmers are interested in better
stock for the farms. 1t costs no more
to keep pure bred stock than 1t does
to keep scrubs, yet the returns to
the farmer soon tell the story of
which is the better to keep.
FARMERS who have large fields of
potatoes to harvest are rejoicing over
the extremely high price Of 'spuds"
