To Blow Out Dams

Conservation Warden Graves
has a crew Of men at work in
the Bibon swamp near Drum
mond blowing out the Beaver
dams in that vicinity.
The Beavers are protected un-
til 1920 and during the past few
years they have multiplied in
great numbers and especially is
this true in the Bibon swamp
where they have built great
dams and have backed up the
water to such an extent that in
places it is flooding the county
highway and a part of the tim
ber preserve of the Rust-Owen
Lumber company.
The State Conservation has
ordered that the dams be re-
moved and the work is being
done under the supervision OF
Warden Graves, who will see
that the Beaver are not injured
while the dynamite is being
used.

Government Orders Watchmen for
Docks and Piers
Persons Without Passes to be Excluded
from Mill and Dock
Property.

New regulations which have
been placed in effect by the
Government as a war measure
will prevent persons without
passes from visiting the docks
and warts of the city, as well as
other lake cities.
A U. S. Marshall was in the
city the past week notifying the
different companies to employ
watchmen and to prevent people
from going upon their property
without first securing a pass.
The order effects the CONNER
cial Dock, leased by the Dupont
company, the Northwestern Fuel
docks and the property of the
M. H. Sprague Lumber company
and the Stearns property as
soon as that company begins
operations.
1t will be necessary for every
person employed by these con-
Germs to carry photographs of
themselves, as well as a COM
pany pass, similar to the passes
carried by the Dup employees.
No person without a pass will
be allowed within three hundred
feet of any entrance to any dock
or pier, excepting of course the
ferry docks.

To the users of Bituminous coal

I wish to strongly urge upon
you the necessity of your Sc

possible date. tits now possible
to secure coal. In some sec
tions of our country, the mines
are not working on account of
lack of orders and these mines
work only to fill orders. 1t is
your duty to keep them busy
this summer to the end that
your wants for the coming win
ter will be fully supplied. Cars
and motive power to move them
are now to be had, but as the
season advances, it will be more
and more difficult to secure the
necessary cars to transport the
coal. You must, therefore ap
preciate how essential it is that
you secure your coal at once.
BY securing coal, | mean not
only placing your orders. but by
having a surplus brought tc
your plant.
Next fall when the cold
weather settles down upon us,
you should have at least sixty
days supply on hand. The
surest way to prevent trouble

!order your coal now and an

United States Must Raise One Hun
dred Million This Week
Committees Throughout Bayfield, County
are Active and Expect to
60 Over the Top.
Number 5

This is Red Cross week
throughout the United States.
This is the week of the campaign
to raise one hundred million dol
lars for this great institution and
throught the United States COM
mittees are working with the
determination to "go over the
top" in this drive.
The Bayfield, County Red Cross
Chapter and its various branches
are very active in the present
campaign and indications are
that the county will go over the
top.
This is the week you are going
to have an opportunity to give
to this great cause. When the
solicitor calls don't ask chow
much am / Iexpected to givef"
but give until your heart says
stop.
Across the seas from every
war-torn nation in the Allied
cause comes the call for Red
Cross help. 1t comes from the
soldiers who have grimly faced
the cleaning bayonet steel and
poison gas and screaming shells.
and who now lie with parched
throats and throbbing wounds.
1t comes from the soldiers sick
with fever, pneumonia and
tuberculosis.
It comes from soldiers crippled,
mutilated, blinded, and who can
no longer fight but must be
taught and trained for useful
occupations.
It comes from the underfed,
shivering. helpless prisoners in
German prison camps.
1t comes from the little child
rem, orphaned, homeless, slowly
starving day by day by tens and
tens of thousands.
It comes from mothers in the
pillaged zones of war whose
hearts and souls have been made
numb with horror.
From all of these millions of
suffering human beings there
comes across the seas the call
for help-help that because OF
the frightful burdens placed up
on our Allies cannot be given un-
less it is provided by the Ameri-
can Red Cross.
What will America answer?
What will be your answer when
the solicitor calls?
It is the noblest cause in all
the world. There is only one
way to give to the Red Cross
give till the heart says stop. A
little contribution is only a slave
to pride. Not to give is to dodge
the heaviest obligation that this
war has laid upon you.
