County Agricultural Agent V. b.
Brubaker has been more than busy
during the past week distributing
the supply Of T. N. 7. to the Farmers
Of Bayfield, county, the shipments
starting from Barksdale during the
forepart of the week, the first ship
ment coming to the Washburn dis
trict where $500 pounds was distri-
buted. The rest of the supply went
to other parts of Bayfield, county.
The demand for the T. N. I. was
exceptionally heavy and the amount
to each farmer had to be cut in half
in order that as many as possible
could be Accommodated.
The orders for the T. N. T.. were
distributed to the farmers as their
applications came in and as long as
the supply lasted.
Mr.. Brubaker says he could have
used the entire state allotment
in Bayfield, county alone for the
farmers of this county were more
than anxious to get the explosive.

POOR MISS MUFFET
By Nick West

Miss Muffet was hopping;
She'd planned her fall shopping
But the Democrats drove things Sc
high
That the High Cost of Collars
Took all her dollars
And nary dress could she buy.

TWO-MAN DAVIS
CUP TEAM NOW
A POSSIBILITY

New York. Feb. S-There never
has been a two-man Davis Cup
team. and there is little likelihood
OF one in the near future. yet there
are good many tennis enthusiasts
who believe that America could do
much worse than ask William NJ.
Johnston and William T. Tilden, I'd.
10 shoulder the entire burden In the
next international event. This be-
lief is probably based on the fact
that Tilden and Johnston. playing
together for the first time were the
only pair in America to defeat Nor
man Z. Brookes and Gerald Patter-
son. the Australian champions. dur
ing their sojourn here last season.
The triumph over Brookes and
Patterson. it must be admitted. came
at a time when the Antfpodeans
were relaxing after strenuous
campaign that terminated in the
conquest of the American doubles
title. They had also gone through
a taxing series of matches in the
national singles championship, and
since there was little at stake there
was good reason to believe that
Brookes and Patterson were not
keyed up to their best efforts Never
theless it is true that Johnston and
Tilden flashed the best exhibition
of doubles any American pair had
shown for two or three seasons, and
that they made their victory deci-
sive.

SPAIN MAY ENTER
MEN In OLYMPlCS

Madrid. Spain. Feb. S.-Great in
terest in the coming Olympic games
is shown by amateur athletes of this
city and many prominent Spaniards,
including former Premier Roma
nones, desire that Spain be repre-
sented by a team. 1t is believed
here that Spain will be able to send
good football aggregations to Ant
werp as the team of Barcelona, Bill
boa and Madrid have been SUGGEST
full in playing against French or
English teams. Some Spanish ten
mis- players are believed to be good
enough to make a fine showing. A
few runners and jumpers might be
sent to Antwerp.
Senior Romanones and his friends
have promised to finance Il Spanish
team, but there is st-ong opposition
in certain quarters against sending
representatives of this country to
the international games.
