These steps were indicated to the

a monster program will be ar
ranged. This iA41lanned to be
an elaborate affair, the equal
of which has not been seen in
the North Wisconsin region
Local land clearing contests
will be held and prizes offered
to the farmers clearing the
most land in their respective
communities.
The Financing
The financing of the monster
plan for county wide land
clearing is to be financed by the
bankers and business men of
the county who realize the i'm
portance of the undertaking to
the county. The former will
be shown every encouragement
to turn more wild acres into i'm
proved farms.
Note-for plan of organization

ward, Ashland. Each banker
or director will choose two or
five progressive and active farm
ers to act with him as a local
Community or unit of the CouI-
.ty Organization. The Bankers
and businessmen Of each Com
munity will be given their share
of the funds to be raised and
turned. over to the treasurer of
the County Organization. In
this way each local committee
will not only have the respon-
sibility of raising it's share of
the fund, but will be relied up
on to see that their Community
gets its share of the benefits
and results of the work of the
Association.

AN EXPLANATION.

In our last issue of the Times we
published news item giving the
price of coal at Milwaukee, in which
it was stated that egg, lump and nut
coal (Franklin county coal) was
selling for $8.75 per ton delivered in
Milwaukee. The article so far as
price was absolutely correct, but
Agent John w. Gibson of the North
western Fuel company states that
this coal is Of the bituminous grade
and is an Illinois coal. For fear
that some of our readers may have
the idea that this was hard coal
prices prevailing in Milwaukee we
give tbs explanation.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1921-01-20
To Have Specialist

1t is planned to engage a
specialist in land clearing to
assist the County Agent and
the Bankers and land developers
in organizing Bayfield, county,
This will be done by holding
meetings at every school house
or other meeting place, in Bay
field county, organizing local
committees, getting business
men and others interested, and
above all to show the farmer
and land owner the value of
making the expenditure that
will clear up the idle acres.
Farmers will be asked to
sign orders in advance for dy-
Mantle of blasting powder, in
order that they may be given
the benefit Of any drop in price
before delivery time. The
organization, through the Coun-
ty Agent and its special agent,
will use every effort to increase
the use of dynamite and will
get it to the farmers at as low
a price as is possible. Wherever
possible the powder will be
handled in car load lots through
the dealers and the farmers will
be notified when the car will
be ready for shipment and the
powder will be ready for de-
livery at the different points
along the railroads.
Caps and fuse will be ordered
in large quantitnes and sold by
the dealers to the farmers at
less than they are at present,
and will be delivered at the
same time as the dynamite.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1921-01-20

The difference between an idle
acre to one planted to crops
ranges anywhere from $4,000 to
$4,000 depending on the crops
to be planted, and taking $4,000
per acre as a fair average and
multiplying that by 5000 means
that the increase will be up
wards of $450,000 annually in
increased crops. It's worth
trying for isn't it?
A plan which has for it's OBJ
iect a more rapid development
of bayfield, county was launched
in this city last Saturday when
County Agricultural Agent V.

RAISE 100000 TO FINANc cE
THEPRELIMINARY WORK

complish the clearing of at least
nine thousand acres of wild
lands and putting them in a
productive state.
Mr.. Frank McCabe, Indus
trial Agent for the Omaha Rail
way company, who was present
at the meeting, gave a very in
>teresting talk, showing the i'm
portance of increased land clear
ing. He Illustrated this by CIV
ing the experience and results of
other communities and counties
which had succeededin this kind
of work.
County Agent V. E. Brubaker,
gave a description of conditions
as they are in the county at the
present time, stating that the
past year or two the farmers OF
the county have only been clear
ing on an average of one acre
per farm, which means about
1000 acres cleared each year, as
the total number of farms in
the county amounts to about
1000. He also gave a table
showing the number of farms,
number of acres cleared, broke
and brushed, also the number
of acres cleared, broke and
brushed, also the number of car
loads of dynamite used in each
banking community.
John. Sweenhart of the State
Land Clearing Department, gave
very interesting talk and out
lined how such an organization
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1921-01-20

could be completed and success
fully run. He also pointed out
that the $4,000 acres cleared last
year by Marinette county and
the crops grown on it, increased
the value of that county more
