ton and a member of the commission
appointed by Governor Burnquist to

the receding waters.
"The Mississippi can be made the
worlds greatest fishing waters" Mr..
Simpson said.
Last year, when some of our men,
bers saw the fish perishing in the
stagnant waters left by the falling
river, we sent out seining crew.
The Federal government, through the
Homer station, also worked a few
crews. The results have been reflect
ed in this years fishing. Fishermen
are agreed that no year has furnished
better fishing on the Mississippi river.
''This year our plan is to urge the
municipal and other authorities in
various towns along the river to as
sist us. In Winona we will raise
funds by subscription. A crew will
start out in few days. We should
work as far south as Prairie du
