LAND CLEARING

John Swenehart of the state land
clearing department is in town this
week to arrange with County Agent
Gibson for a series of meetings to be-
held in various parts of the county
within a short time for the purpose
of arousing sentiment for large land
clearing campaign during 1922 1t is
said that $4,000 was paid out by the
farmers of Villas county last year for
hay and feed and this amount OF mon
ey expended in explosives and labor
would clear and place under cultiva-
ton very large area materially re-
ducing the outlay that is continually
going on for feed stuffs for stock. Ac-
cording to reports the year just clos
ing has seen larger number of acres
cleared than ever before in one sea-
son and next year will undoubtedly be
much better With the right kind of
enthusiasm worked up it should
greatly excel any other year.

Small Game Is Plentiful
Reports Commissioner
DECREASE IN NUMBER OF DEER
DUE TO THE SETTLEMENT
OF WILD LANDS

A plentiful supply of game in nor
thern Wisconsin for many years to
come is predicted by w. e. Barber,
chairman of the state conservation
commission. According to Mr. Bar
Der, who has been member of the
commission since its formation in
1915 and who is intimately acquainted
with game conditions, during the past
ten years there has been an increase
in all kinds of game except deer.
"The increase in the number Of
DEER said Mr.. Barber lis due, not
to hunting but to settlements which
are invading the deer territory. The
new buck law allows a hunter to
kill but one year-old buck season
has resulted in the woods being full
of does and fawns, This condition
means a plentiful future supply.
"The increase in the number of
squirrels, rabbits and similar game is
explained by the five bag law which
limits a hunter to five kills day.
The shortening of game seasons is
also factor.
Five years ago it was thought that
partridge could never again be hunted
in Wisconsin. Now, how ever, after
the five year closed season there are
more cartridges than ever saw when
used to hunt thirty-five years ago"
Wisconsin and New York lead the
other states in efficient conservation
Michigan and Minnesota are both CIV
en- an increasing amount of attention
to such measures, but SO far they have
few wardens and less efficient -organi-
cation.
mot enough people recognize the
resources of Wisconsin" said Mr.. Bar
Der. 1--WE have over 100000 lakes 30O,-
900, trout streams and about II million
acres Of cut-over forests in the state.
Already six tracts of land have been
set aside for state parks, in one of
which is waterfall surprising
Minnehaha Falls in beauty. Such vast
natural resources justify large ex-
penditure of money for conservation !"

ed at the, benefit movie at the opera
house Wednesday evening. This with
donations of money and groceries
from individuals, brings the total UP
over the hundred dollar mark, which
means that a good many needy fami.
lies within a radius of fifteen miles
of Eagle River will have a basket of
Christmas cheer Each family will re-
ceivei a bushel basket of groceries and
a 50-lb sack of flour. The money TAX
en- in at the movie benefit will be used
to purchase the flour, the, grocerie
being donated. A good deal of service
able clothing has been gathered and
will be- distributed. Local clubs, bust
ness men and others have contributed
toward this fund for the needy, and
through Rev. w. J. Davies, the distri
button will be made. Anyone having
cars available to help out in reaching
outlying families is requested to offer
their aid The distribution of the
amount of goods already on hand, and
which MUST all be done within the
next few days, means that a good
many miles must be covered. With
several cars in service, it would be
but a short job.
Throughout the summer Rev
Davies has held numerous meetings in
the community, at resorts and various
gatherings, and quite a sum of money
was donated to be used as Rev Davies
saw fit, for charity, to alleviate suf-
fering, or for religious purposes. This
fund has been put to good USE in
various ways where it did the most
coed, so that, while it was hoped
there would be enough left to spread
Christmas cheer among worthy fami-
lies, without any further donations, the
final accounting showed it necessary
to raise more money for their aid. A
movie benefit was decided upon as the
best way to raise a fund for charity.
Liberal donations from those connect
ed with the management of the show
helped to increase the net proceeds.
There is still plenty of need for
money, groceries and clothing and any
donations will be gratefully received.
Donators may rest assured that their
contributions will be welcome among
those families where conditions are
far below what they should be. It's
splendid work, to give where aid is
really needed and at this Christmas
season takes on added significance in
spreading the gospel of community
service and the brotherhood of man.

CHRISTMAS FIRES


Peace on earth, good will to men. .
Will your Christmas be a day of
joy and happiness, or a day of mourn
ing? Will fire or death in your house,
shop, store or church mar the pleas
ure of this and all future Yuletides?
It is UP to you.
Fathers have died playing Santa
Claus, because candles ignited the
flammable suit or whiskers, children
have met death in the same way.
Christmas tree fires which burned
or damaged homes, churches and
stores and their precious contents
have been too common, and some
times in large stores, churches and
halls. panics have increased the sacri-
flee of lives.
All this can be prevented
Let us Danish all paper cotton or
other combustable trimmings and dec
orations, and use instead metallic tin
sci. asbestos fibre and powdered mica.
Paper and cloth, treated to render
them slow burning, can now be pur-
chased.
A cluster of small, colored, electric
lights is safer and more effective to
light the Christmas tree than candles,
which children are bound to light and
relight if not watched, often to
their sorrow.
Waste paper and other packing ma
terials, coming with presents and dec
orations should be removed immed-
lately, as also should the tree before
the needles become dry. Christmas
tree fires in January are inexcusable
Those in charge of large stores
churches, halls and other meeting
places have an added responsibility
Fire in such places is liable. to result
in panic and holocaust.
No combustible decorations must be
used in such places. All electrical dis
plays and window lighting should be
installed by a competent electrician
Neither goods nor decorations should
be placed near gas jets, stoves. stove
pipes, or chimneys, nor any flammable
decorations attached to any electric
wires, globes or fixtures, and the en-
tire premises kept clear from combus-
tible waste materials. 1t is important
that all exits, aisles, fire-escapes and
passageways be clear and unobstruct-
ed.
Think of the safety of your family
your neighbours, and of the fire lad.

A little caution and prevention will
keep the joy bells pealing. Careless

SECOND GAME SEASON
LOST TO RHINELANDER
First and Second High School
Basket Ball Teams Beaten
at Rhinelander Friday
Minocqua Tonight

The basketball games at Rhineland-
er last Friday resulted in defeat for
the local first and second high school
teams. However, it cannot be said that
our boys were not game to the finish
or that Rhinelander had the walkaway
which the score of 40 to 6 seems to
indicate. At the end of the first half
Rhinelander had Gagged only seven
baskets and during the first part of
the second half our boys came back
so strong that Rhinelander was held
to one basket, while Stein succeeded
in putting two through the hoop " h

then when both sides were nearly ex-
hausted there was little opposition to
his fast and skilfull work Of offense
Fed by Boehm, this speedy forward
threw seven through the hoop in
three or four minutes of play.
The second team lost by a closer
score, % to 6. They showed the lack
Of years of experience which the lads
of Rhinelander have secured but were
just as game as their opponents.
Those who played on the second team
were: Ewald, Dotson, L. D. Hall, John

Zimpelmann. Lillrose made two bas-
kets and Ewald one. With larger

To Get County Nurse

The county board of supervisors adj
journed Saturday morning after busy
week in Strengthening up all business

tant things accomplished was the
action of the board in making an

mand for them it was thought that
there would be no applicants to fill
the position earlier than that.

terror for encouraging the Indians in
their native dances.
These Dances the report says,
apart from any degrading practices,
are highly demoralizing because they
occupy the Indians for days, taking
them away from their proper work.
1.-THE Indians have told Supt. Bal
mer (Lac du Flambeau reservation of
Chippewa Indians,) that he, might as
well kill them as to stop their dances
This year, however, he insisted, with
some success, that all crops must be
planted before the spring dance was
permitted"
