MINNESOTA ADOPTS AREA
PLAN OF T. B. ERADICATION

Minnesota, third in rank as a
dairy State, has now definitely taken
up the area plan for the eradication
of bovine tuberculosis. Counties,
State, and the United States De-
partment of Agriculture are to CO.
operate in carrying on the work.
Some time ago a committee of
breeders was appointed by the State
livestock sanitary board to investi-
gate plans for continuing the fight
against the disease. Recently the
committee met with the sanitary
board and a resolution was unani-
mously adopted asking the legislat-
ure for 100000 for area work for
two years, the work to be carried
on in two counties. In addition. the
legislature is to be asked for $780,
900 per annum for two years for
accredited-herd work. The plan is
approved by the State veterinarian.
According to the plans laid out,
it is proposed that the counties pay
for the testing of the cattle at the
rate of rs cents a head. The fund
resulting from this charge will be
State and Federal, who are assigned
to the work. Indemnities will be
paid in the regular way.
The three big dairy States-Wis-
consin, New York and Minnesota
are now all taking up area work,
which has become the predominant
plan for the eradication of the
great cattle plague. Some of the
States where the infection is light
are expecting to be entirely rid of
the disease within a few years.

ZENITH MINE COMPLETES
SHIPMENTS FOR YEAR.

The Zenith mine completed its
shipping schedule this week, sending
forward a little better than $50, 900
tons, the largest shipment since
1917. A fair sized stockpile is be-
ing carried over. Announcement is
made that a night shift will be
worked at the Zenith this winter,
and additional men are being taken
on now. Previous to this, mining
operations have been carried on dur
ing the day shift only, with little
Development work going on nights.
From now on a full night shift
will be worked. AS a general rule,
mining operations are more extens-
i've during the winter months, for
there is very little other employ
ment available. This summer a
great many men were engaged in
road building and construction work
who viii seek employment in the
mines during the winter.

HUNTER LOST THREE DAYS
LOCATED LATE TUESDAY.

A party of st. Paul hunters at
Camp on the Ely-Finland road
sent word to the city that one of
their number had been missing
since Sunday and was in all prob
ability lost. Several from here
went out to assist in the search
which was conducted by Ranger
Thos. Denley of the Superior Ma
tional Forest.
A trapper in the country south
of Camp 8 and between that camp
and Crawford's Lodge, heard the
calls for help and the shots fired
by the lost man Tuesday and locat-
ed him. He was assisted to Craw-
ford's Lodge and from there to his
camp. Others who were in the
search for the missing man were
recalled by prearranged signals.
Geo. Peterson was the name of
the unfortunate man and when
found he was in a weakened condi-
ton from his two nights and three
days in the woods. He still had a
few matches and had some roasted
partridge which he had killed and
cooked, also a part of a sandwich
with which he had started out Sun
day and when he found himself lost
had nibbled sparingly. His clothes
were badly torn from his rambles
through the brush. He said that at
night he built himself fire and
tried to keep warm, walking during
the day. His wanderings were all
within the confines of eight miles
in country covered with second
growth brush and timber. Peterson
is at the camp now and recovering
from his narrowing experience.

WHEN DID FARMING
, BEGIN IN MINNESOTA?


Who was the pioneer farmer of
Minnesota? Joseph R. Brown has
been given the credit by some;
refugees from the Selkirk colony in
tn Red River valley by others; but
member of the staff of the Min
mr. esota Historical society, searching
through old manuscripts in the lib
rary of MeGill University, Montreal,
has found that the credit belongs to
none of these.
As early as 1907, five years be-
fore the founding of Selkirk's col
ony, and twelve before Joseph r.
Brown set foot on Minnesota
ground, farming on a fairly large
scale was being carried on at fur
trading posts on Sandy Lake and
Leech Lake. A letter written by
George Henry Monk on April Is,
1907, describes his trip up the st.
Louis river to Sandy lake and be-
yond to Leech lake. With refer
ence to the Northwest Company
post on Sandy lake, Monk writes
There are two horses, a COW, q
bull, and few pigs; with the man.
ure Of these animals a garden of 3
acres Of pure sand is cultivated
which produces about 220 bushels
potatoes"
He also writes that there was 3
large establishment at Leech lake
Five acres were under cultivation
