Is years old, came with his parents
to the site of Medary. At that time
there we're only eleven or twelve peo-
pie living in this section of the state
north of Sioux Falls. The Trygstad
family were about the only residents
of the county at that time. There had
been a settlement a. an earlier date
at Medary, but it had been abandoned,
SO the first permanent settlers were
the ones who came to the county at
this time.

LET HENRY DO 1T.

We cannot help wonder what IS
back of the propaganda against Hen
ry Ford's proposal to complete the
great enterprise at Muscle Shoal.
which the Government began ano
has failed to finish. We have no spe-
cial love for Ford. Along some lines
he seems crazy and along others his
ignorance is appalling, but that he is
genius at industrial organization
no one can dispute successfully.
Until Ford made his offer to com
plete the Wilson dam and put the
Governments nitrate plants in shape
to furnish agriculture with cheap
fertilizer in times Of peace and the
Nation with ample explosives in
times of war, there had been a great
hue-and-cry against the Muscle
Shoals project. 1t was described as a
worthless dream which would bank
rupt the Government, bottomlesS
sink-hole for Uncle Sans millions;
the greatest blunder of the Wilson
administration, and all that sort OF
thing. The minute Ford made his cele-
brated offer we were told that the
Government would be crazy to ac-
cept, that to do 50 would be to pres
ent Ford with millions and most
valuable concession, etc There is Il

Without question the redoubtablc
Henry will make few millions i'll
he goes into this thing. He is built
that way and seemingly cannot help
it. If in making them he adds mil
lions beyond estimate to the Nation
in the way of increased soil fertility,
cheap power for the industries, avail |
able explosives for the needs Of war,
what of it? If the government can
not complete the great project with
out a further waste Of millions. lei
some one do it who can, surrounding
the bargain with proper restrictions.
Of course. The wonderful industrial
development of North Carolina has
been due largely to just such cheap
hydro-electric power as Muscle
Shoals would provide-power which
:osts only half what it would cost to
produce it with steam.
The country needs the power, the
'ertilizer, the nitrogen, the water
the employment Of
nen n construction and operation and
he other things which the Muscle
'heals project stands for. Let Henry

Some time ago the Louisiana De

Of the shipping privileges to fur trap

the new fur law are now in active

within the limits of the State. The
tags used by fur buyers or others to
ship furs to points within the State
are printed in black ink, and may be
obtained on application to the Depart
mcnt of Conservation. These tags are
required merely for the identification
of shipments made by Louisiana
shippers and buyers to Louisiana fur
dealers, or from one Louisiana fur
dealer to another Louisiana dealer.
The fur dealers license is S25 per
annum, and permits the holder to
buy furs and ship them out of the
state. The tags used by dealers for
shipping out Of the State are the
same as for trappers shipping out of
the state, and are printed in red.
These tags are issued to dealers
