the opinion that wolves must be
numerous in Bayfield, county this

which he is paying is any indication
of numbers. During the month Of

Especially Valuable to Small Garden
ers and Trucksters Who Cannot
Obtain Manure.

Cover crops are of especial value to
small gardeners and trucksters, who
often find it both difficult and expen-
sive to obtain stable manure. They
add the humus which is so necessary
to maintain a good physical condition
of the soil. Wherever there is vacant
place in the garden few seeds of rye,
vetch, clover, etc., may be sown and
raked in. If suitable rotation of
crops Is followed all parts of the gar
den may be covered with a green ma
nure crop once every two or three
years.

l''MOON" GETS
ANOTHER VICTIM
JOHN Tam DIES AFTER
NIGHT SPREE
Found in Bed With Two Corn
pani0ns and Coroner Pro-
nOunced Death as Due to
M0Onshine Poisoning.

John L. Tam age 81 years, a resi-
dent of Madeline Island, has been
added to the list of victims of
moonshine poisoning, his death
having resulted last Friday as the
result of an all night spree, in which
he imbided freely in moonshine
whiskey.
Tam, so it is said, had manufac-
tured some moonshine whiskey and
together with Gust Peterson and
Cadott, both residents of the Island,
had proceeded to go on drunk.
According to Peterson and Cadott
they had nearly two quarts of the
'moon" when they started on their
spree and almost all of this was con-
sumed, Tam drinking the greater
portion of the stuff.
During the night the three went to
bed and when Cadott and Peterson
awaken in the morning they discov-
cred that Tam had passed away.
Coroner Sole of Ashland was call
ed, and after examining the body
and questioning Cadott ard Peterson,
pronounced death as being due to
moonshine poisoning.
Peterson had taken but few
drinks of the stuff, while Cadott had
partaken Of a larger quality, but
aside from being sick these two did
not suffer any bad effects. Tam,
on the other hand had consumed a
large portion of the two quarts and
this caused his death.
Tam was stone mason by trade
and had been a resident of the Is
land for number of years. He
was buried nthe Island on Monday
of this week.

When Are Potatoes Art?

Gutzon Borglum gives the answer The distinguished sculptor who is miserable when there is calm and peace has char acteristic article in the Arts and Decora- ticn. He writes:
 '"The dictionary tells us that everything in the world is either nature or art. If this is true. raw potato is nature and a boiled one is art.
 ''In the course of civilization, aesthetics has come to mean the method of saying and doing things beautifully; and the word art has come to have a meaning other than craft: meaning vague, nebu- lous, and applied to something few of us understand.
 "In fact. art is simply the way of doing anything beautifully, and applies as to- writing play or designing St. Peters All these may be the acts of the same individual and invested with the same quality. They are the only records worthy of preservation in the course of a civilization.

He definitely rejected all authority except the Word of God in matters of relg- ion. With the dramatic scene at Worms Luther burned all bridges be- hind him.
 'The incident contributed another principle that is vital to the modern world: The principle of separate func- tons for church and state; the only principle that guarantees freedom of conscience, right of private judgm ent and religious toleration.
 Times not yet born were listening Thus the spirit of modern liberty was conceived in the first quarter of the sixteenth century in the rugged soul of medieval monk. It was born in the last quarter of the eighteenth century on the Atlantic seaboard of the North American continent. And now, in tnis first quarter of twentieth century by the grace of God it is coming to full maturity all over the world"

HOME RULE ACT PUT INTO EFFECT Sim Feiners Generally Reject But No Organized Ian Has
 Been Adopted

Dublin, February 26.--Though the Sim Fieners generally reject the Home Rule act, has not yet officially determined its line of tactics in rela- tion to it
 The chief secretary. Sir Homar Greenwood, and the high officials are busy with plans for putting the act into force in the South. and are ex- ploring the possibilities of finding candidates who will face the risk of the polls. This compels Sim Fein to decide what it will do, and interview with well known Sim Feiners reveal three distinct ',rrents of opinion. The largest section, supported, it is said by the aut, ,ority of De Valera, believes that the act should be com pletely ignored and that Sim Feiners should neither appear as candidates or exercise the franchise. smaller section, seeing that thi scourse might lead to the election of sunfficient number of persons to constitute the parliament. think that the Sim Foi- ners should contest the seats and. having won most of them, refuse to attend the Dublin parliament. This would i put the government to the necessity of replacing the duly elected representatives of the country by mo- minated men who would, under the act, have all powers of the parliament.
 A third but very small bodp of Sim Feiners are of the opinion that they should not only secure election but ur,- dertake the work of government in the new parliament, and use the position to extract extended powers. Between these rival views Sim Fein must shortly decide. and there is no doubt that the official decision will be obeyed.
 There is a strong view among all sections of Nationalists that the fair est way for the government to test Irish opinion on the new act wkould be to submitft by referendum to the whole people Leading Sim Feiners have expressed themselves as quite willing that this course should De talk en, and are confident that in Southern Ireland the verdict for It's reflection would be almost unanimous.
