Busy Season in the Woods.

{ Northern Wisconsin's output of
forest products this winter bids fair
to surpass all previous records, judg-
ing from the appearances Of logging
activities in this section. An early
winter with plenty of snow and cold
weather enough to keep the roads in
good condition, coupled with great
demand for all the products that are
taken from the woods. has kept large
crews busy in every branch of the
winter industry. Camps are paying
high wages but are having hard work
to keep the crews up to the size that
logging contractors would like to see.
Big timber, pulp wood, tan bark, cord
wood and all the other products are
being taken out in large quantities in
an effort to supply an ever increasing
demand. Mills are working to full
capacity, many of them with day and
night shifts. The activity is general
throughout the entire northern sec
tion. Logging trains from the north
pass through here day and night with
capacity loads OF saw timber and fin
ished product from the mills above.
Heavy falls of snow the last few
weeks give promise of season THAI
will last for several weeks more, en-
aiding haulers to get the most of
their cuts to loading stations.

Cutting lee This Week.

There will be no ice shortage next
summer judging from the looks of
activities around local ice houses this
week. The annual crop of ice for the
needs of this community is being har-
vested at this time and if thickness
and quality are the standards to go
by, then it is a record crop. Most of
the ice for town use is cut or Silver
lake-a crystal pure product % inches
thick and of the finest quality this
winter. With a full crew the work
of filling ice houses has been quick
job. Resorts and summer homes on
the nearby lakes will complete the
task of putting up their seasons sup
ply in few days. Weather for the
past two months has been all that ice
men could ask and the product shows
it. Downstate ice men reckon a r.
inch block a good cut II they could
have access to the frozen beautiful
that covers the lakes in this vicinity
four months out of every twelve, their
ice shortages would be a thing of the
past, regardless of where the Their
mometer went in July and August.

More County Agents Wanted.

Forty-eight of the Il Wisconsin
counties have asked for an agriculture
al agent, but only 80 counties have
thus far been supplied by the agri-
cultural extension service. The six
counties on the present waiting list
are there because Of the difficulty of
finding men who are the right cali
Der for this important work, says K.
L. Hatch, in charge of appointments.
Florence, Jackson, Jefferson, Por-
tage, st. Croix and Washington
counties are all in line for agents as
soon as the right man is found. The
last two counties have had agents
for some time, but designations have
forced the county boards to look for
other men to fill their places. In adj
dition, Washburn, Adams and Pierce
counties are on the list Of those that
have voted for county agent, but
the appointment cannot be made in
these counties until after July /, 1920.
The counties that have agents now
are Ashland, Barron, Bayfield,, Brown,
Buffalo, Burnett, Calumet, Chippe-
wa, Clark, Dodge, Door, Douglas,

1914 was s1.55. In 1919 they were
hard to get at IS day.
Workers in the cities do almost as
we'll. The Baltimore bricklayer, who
In 1913 got As cents an hour, had to
work ssh hours to earn money for a
S25 suit of clothes. Now he gets ST.
an hour and works 60 hours for a $50
suit. However, he gets in lot more
overtime and is not idle nearly SO
many days, so he is relatively better
of than he was in 1913.
The prosperity or the worker is no
longer adequately measured by his
wage per hour. Five years ago work
was scarce; large percentage of
workers expected to be idle many
days in the year. Now there is de-
mand for the service of every avail
able man in practically every trade,
not only for Al or 48 hours a week at
regular pay, but for many hours Of
overtime ab double pay,
Is it any wonder that the demand
ror clothes is enormous? Producer
and worker alike have more money,
in proportion, to spend for clothes
than they ever had before. They
want good clothes, too, and are Gre
ating an unusual demand for them.

PROTECT deer AND
MUSKRAT is PLAN
State Conservation Commits
sion Announces Plan for
Closed Season for
One Year.

Chairman w. E. Barber of the
state conservation commission an
nounces that q closed season for deer
and muskrat for one year will soon
become a reality. 1t will be done to
save these animals from extinction in
Wisconsin.
Thirty-day publication of hearings
will soon be posted. State senators
and assemblyman have been notified
Of the intended act and, on ascertain
ing the feeling in their districts in
regard to the matter, have stated
that scarcely dissenting voice has
been heard.
Because of the high price of fur
this season, trappers have greatly In
creased in numbers, and the musk
rats have been trapped to the point
of determination. Muskrat furs re-
Gently sold for 81 a skin at Water
town.
The state conservation commission
has not received the complete NUM-
Der of deer slaughtered in Wisconsin
last fall, but 1900 tags show that a
like number were transported by rail.
This does not include the number
killed by home hunters or taken out
of the woods by team or auto.
In tine village Of Winter 837 deer
were shipped out. The close Of the
war added to the number of hunting
licenses, which totaled $1,000, break
ing all previous records. The slaugh-
ter would have been greatly increased
but hunters worked without the aid
of snow.

Nearing of wisconsin. +"

An article in the Review of last
week on the various changes that
have come about in the spelling of
the word wisconsin" caught the eye
of Finn Lawler, who is probably the
best posted man that this part of the
state has regarding Indian customs,
legends, etc. We are indebted to
him for some information regarding
where the Wisconsin river first origi-
mates, according to Indian tradition,
which will be news to most readers.
The average student of Wisconsin
history has always inferred that the
river by that name found it's fountain
head IN Lac Vieux Desert, from
whence it proceeded on its long tor
tuous course to the Mississippi, trav-
cling almost the length of the state.
According to Mr.. LaWler, none of the
early day Indians placed its origin
there at all, and could not according
to their definition of the meaning of
wisconsin, which is tat the meet
ing of the waters and which in this
case is just below where Rice creek,
Mud creek, Eagle river, and what the
Indians termed the Vieux Desert
river converge, only short distance
below Eagle River but distance of
Is miles from Lac Vieux Desert as
the crow flies. This was the most in
teresting information that we have
heard in lifetime and we doubt
very much if there are many people
who are not considerably surprised to
find that the race who gave both
state and river it's name never allud-
ed to the Wisconsin river until, as
stated, the Vieux Desert river had
flowed a considerable distance to
where the meeting of the waters was
perfected by four different streams.

Basketball Notes

The local high school stepped out
Of it's class when it met the fast An
tigo team on the latter's floor last
Friday evening, as the score of Al to
IL il, Amigos favor will Indicate.
But at that, it was a good game. The
boys kept up good spirit and made an
aggressive fight Of it until the final
whistle, making the Amigo cagers
work for their big score. For the
first five minutes of play the teams
were held societies. and it began to
look as though Amigos press agent
had been oyerworing, but that team
soon found its feet and with dazzling
formations and speedy getaways
began to roll up the score. There can
be no regrets over such a defeat.
When the two schools are compared
as to enrolment and available mater
ial for basket ball, equipment, facili-
ties for practice and the many other
items that make the stronger team,
the question is solved. The fact that
Amigo played a dozen or more men
in the last half, all first team timber,
too, shows that they have wealth of
material to choose from, an impossi-
bility in our own school where it
means hard work on the part of all
the fellows to have team at all.
Tho ntiUo own is one of tho largest,
in the state, a floor that is used every
season by many high schools to decide
their tournament contests. And on
top of all that the doWnstate high
school is large enough to support a
physical training director who has
charge of all athletics. It.was not to
be expected that team from a high
school the size of Eagle River could
90 down and win from such quintet
as Amigo puts up. But it was a good
trip and the boys learned some new
stunts about basket ball as it is
played by the larger high schools OF
the state. Amigo won and to them
belongs all credit for the victory. Be-
low is the score made by the home
boys. The Amigo men were chang
ing positions so fast in the last half
of the game that it was well nigh
impossible for an outside scorekeeper
who did not know the men personally,
to keep track of them.

To Every Person in Villas Co.

Ifmy lite's experience has i'm
pressed any one fact more indelibly
upon me than any other, it is this:
Sins of omission quite as frequently
attain unfortunate results as the
more positive sort.
Probably the careers of nearly ev-
cry adult reader of this article might
have become more brilliant and sue
cessful If some friend had, at the
crucial moment, uttered the recon-
mendation, sent the letter, or even
casually planted" some compliment
tary truth in the correct region of
influence.
Just REMEMBERING to do a trifing
service Of this sort las changed the
life of many individuals from failures
to successes.
For this reason, am going to prac-
tice what / am preaching by urging
every citizen of Villas County to vote
in the Milwaukee Journal Teachers
European Tour Contest, already
mentioned in the Review columns.
Vote for SOME contestant.
Help SOMEONE to go to Europe, free
of expense, help someone to bring
back the vital truths, concerning the
world war, gained by original re-
search back to our boys and girls,
help someone to the prestige and POI
sition which will naturally follow the
distinction of being chosen-in my
mind this being more enyiable than
the pleasure of the trip itself. None
of the eleven teachers who make the
trip will ever occupy minor places in
their profession again, and the men,
tion of this honor will be the finest
tribute to their memories in their
elegies.
Many of you, will have personal
friends in this contest outside of your
Congressional district Don't fail to
vote for these. 1t is expected that
the population of Racine will be
practically all voters in this contest.
If you do not find among the con-
testants one who compels your al
legiance wish to inform those who
are neutral that Miss Elizabeth
Quinnell, of Drummond, who is a
candidate from the Eleventh District
is young woman whose personality,
moral character, and scholarship /
can thoroughly endorse.
She is a graduate of Stevens Point
Normal, 1915, and was one of the
most brilliant students ever enrolled
there, and her election as President
of the Y. w. G. A., at the beginning
of her Senior year speaks in itself of
her tness to represent us abroad
Added to this is the ability to trans
nit the impressions received abroad
on the lecture platform from which
many Wisconsin communities will
benefit next year through these
elected teachers.
If the Racine teachers had not
unanimously decided to support our
home candidate, I should have en-
tered the contest myself, but though
there is nothing to prevent one run

Villas COUNTY LANDS
FOR HOMESEEKERS
Excellent Opportunity for the
Man Who Wants Farm
of His Own Results
Tell the Tale.

The entire acreage Of the II coun-
ties in Wisconsin is 30, 1863, 804, while
that of the 20 counties comprising
upper Wisconsin, have l8,5l3,920 or
more than half the land of the entire
commonwealth, of which 1850, 1903
acres are under cultivation. These 20
counties constitute a veritable empire
with population of 603, POP people.
This great Upper Wisconsin is with
in days railroad travel OF Chicago,
one of the worlds great markets.
Upper Wisconsin is the farm seek
er's golden opportunity, yet it is a
fact that no section of the United
States enjoys perfect growing condi-
tions, as Prof. B. G. Packer of the
Wisconsin Department of Agricul-
ture says: "None are free from posi-
BILE damage to crops by unfavorable
weather or insects. But it rains in
Wisconsin. It always will. There is
no alkali. The state receives $50
billion tons of water from the clouds
every year. Figure it out for your
self-35, 100000 acres in the state, 49,
$50 square feet to the acre, cubic
foot of water weighing ga pounds
and 80 inches annual fall. Thus the
Badger farmer, with so acres, has
distributed over his fields more than
a quarter of million tons without
leading it around with hoe.
Upper Wisconsin is the dairyman's
land of promise, as the composition
of the soil, coupled with climatic con-
ditions, produce plentitude Of feed
peculiarly adapted to secure the
highest pont in dairy excellence.
Nowhere is this more clearly DEM
onstrated than in Villas county Its
soil is an ideal potato producer and
its possibilities with clover and other
forage crops make it the coming
dairy section.
There are thousands OF landless
men looking for betterment of
their conditions and in Villas county
there are thousands of manless acres
awaiting development Information
regarding Villas county lands reli-
able information based on faces asd
service to the buyer-can be secured
from any one of the several licensed
real estate men in the county. The
steady development of the land by
satisfied settlers is the biggest asset
of the community's progress. Villas
county still offers success to the man
who comes here to work his way to
independence.

boys and escorted by a guard Of sol
diers, all members of the American

hall where large attendance heard
Rev. Ralph of Green Bay deliver the
last tribute of respect and honor to
the deceased. He emphasized the
spirit of devotion to family and coun-
try for which the lad died as truly as
any boy who fell at Verdun or Cha
teau Thierry, and which, aside from
the loss sustained by his relatives,
also meant that in the closing of a
life just entering upon mans estate,
future worthy citizen had been lost
to his country. Following the service
interment was made in the cemetery,
where military graveside honors were
accorded by his comrades in blue and
khaki.
William Tudor Davies was born at
Scranton, Pa, June rs, 1899, had
lived in Wisconsin large part OF his
life, and came with his parents to
Eagle River in 1916, living here until
his entrance into the navy in the
spring of 1918.
The high school student body, of
which he was member before enlist
ment, attended the funeral.
