NOTHING NEW TO REPORT.

The authorities in charge of in
vestigating the recent murder of
Kenneth LaVigne, more commonly
known as "Stoney Slim" are still
working on the case and expect to
snow results in the near future.
Chief of Police Barth Coffey and his
force have worked hard to locate
some tangible clew and are meeting
with results. Deputy Sheriff Gilbert
Hoel of Duluth has spent the week
here and has been kept on the jump
following leads. The prospects are
strong that something will break
shortly but at present there is moth
ing to. report. An error was made in
the reports of last week stating that
it was the Wylie farm where the
shooting took place. The farm was
bought several months ago by Mr..
Koschak of this city and he rented
the building to the occupant for the
winter. Wylie is not connected with
it in any way.

per cent phosphorus, with a selling
price of $7.95, and the non-Bes-
semer should average 1910 per cent
natural iron and sell for SITS, indi-
eating an average selling price for
the range of $7.93 at lower lake
ports. These ores command a high
premium as they average well above
the base price.
: The average lower lake selling
price, minus the rail and lake freight,
will give the value of the ore on the
cars at the mine. This will figure
out at about $4.43 ton for Mesabi
ores and $3.50 per ton for Vermilion
range ores this year.
The value of the other Lake Su-
perior ranges may be forecasted fair
ly accurately in the same manner.
The average ore shipped from the
Lake Superior district this year will
bring about $4.60 per ION at the
mine. Out of this figure must be
paid the cost of mining, the royalty
the taxes, allowance for deprecia-
ton, selling commissions, etc. With
the high cost of labor and supplies,
and the taxes running up to 81 per
ton, $3.50 per ton for ore mined by
the underground method is small
enough figure, and leaves but little
profit to the iron ore operator.

THE SUPERIOR FOREST
(by FREDERICK F. McARTHUR)
in Cutters Magazine.

Mr.. Macarthur visited the "Play-
ground of Nation" last summer and
his article to Cutters was an un-
solicited testimonial to our section
of the country. Already, the For
est Officials have received several in
quiries from tourists as a result of
the Macarthur article. The article
follows:

oils Athletic Club the other evening.

that the majority of both sexes

cars and played golf. Of the men
the majority would have included

recreations. In truth here was an
informal gathering of good Ameri-
cans; successful, Intelligent
kind of folks you and me like to
meet in the club, in the home, on the

more and more on the trail. Wher-
ever we go in our National Forests
we are meeting up with them, swap

camping site news, comparing hotels

makes no difference how much money
you have or how little, if you want

vERMILION ORES
AVERAGE HIGH
c COMPREHENSIVE STATEMENT
OF THE VALUE OF MIN
NESOTA ORES.

The announcement of the 1920
iron ore prices for the four groups
of Lake Superior ores was of much
interest to those who follow iron
mining, says Skillings Mining Re
view. To a great many, I1owever,
the figures convey a rather vague i'm,
preston, and some p~or,e gain an
altogether false notion Of the selling
price of the ores. To see the an
nouncement that Mesabi range and
Bessemer ores sell on a $3.50 base,
sets up high idea of the value of
the Mesabi range ores in some.
The real question is, what is the
ore worth in 1920 at the mine, and
by ore is meant average ore. Know
ing the average grade of ore shipped
from each range, both Bessemer and
non-Bessemer, and the percentage of
each in the total, one can compute
the average selling price, and deduct
ing the lake and rail freight, arrive
at the value at the mine. The av-
erage grade has shown considerable
variation in the past 20 years, but
has been fairly uniform of late. The
grade of the 1920 shipments can be
forecasted fl fly closely and the av-
erage value computed.
The Mesabi range shipped 65.55
per cent of the total Lake Superior
movement in 1919, and a fair guess
is that it will contribute still great
er percentage in 1920. Ab>tt 35
per cent of this should be Bessemer,
OF an average grade of about $3.50
per cent natural iron and .O44 phos-
phorus, which would command a
price at Lake Erie ports of $500 per
ton. The bulk of the Mesabi gange
shipments will be of the non-Bes-
semer group, and figures of past
years indicate that the average gral e
will be close to SO per cent natural
iron, commanding a Lake Erie price
of 1884. The average price of Me-
sabi range ores at lower lake ports
will thus be about $685.. It will be
seen that both grades are below the
base value, and are penalized as to
price.
The VermiGon range OF es average
higher than any other and will run
about IS per cent Bessemer. The
Bessemer ores will average about
$3.50 per cent natural iron and .O3,N

RETURNED FROM ENGLAND.

Capt. James Nankervis who left
here the latter part of January for
a visit at his old home in England,
returned Saturday and reports fine
trip, both going and coming and
while he was over there. He says
that conditions in England are not of
the best and that the cities are filled
with manned, crippled and blind men
as the result of the war. While he
was pleased to greet his old friends
and relatives, he feels that this
country and especially this section
of Minnesota is good enough for
him.. His many friends were pleased
over his return.

SAM HILL AND HIS DADDY

Father" said Sam Hill, q was looking at my seed corn a little while ago and I saw a small but terfly sitting on one of the ears. It can't hurt the corn, can 1t"
 That isn't a butterfly, Sam, answered MT. Hill. That is a moth and is sometimes called the fly weevil' It does lots of dam age to corn and if it gets bad it may ruin your corn for seed. I'll go look at it so as to be sure, and if it is what l think, we'll have to arrange to kill them.
 Sam and MT. Hill went to the barn where Sam's corn was tied in strings and hanging from a wire stretched across the loft. MT. Hill shook string of the corn and when he did so a small moth, about half an inch across it's wings, flew off in a quick, jerky way.
 Yes" said MT. Hill, that is what is called the fly weevil. We must kill them right away or they will lay eggs on your corn and soon there will be enough of them to eat the inside out of lots of the grains"
 How are you going to kill them?" asked Sam, who was always very anxious when he thought his seed might be damaged
 Wen give them dose of high
