HAVE NO HOPE OF
RECAlNlNC LAND

Sault Ste Marie From a position
of supposed wealth to one of poverty
is the conrition in which three hun
dred families Of the Sault Ste. Marie
band, at one time one of the most inn
portant branches of the Chippewa
tribe, find themselves.
The band, until a few days ago, be-
lieved the United States government
owed to the three hundred families
a fortune running into millions as
payment for lands taken over by the
white men. They base ,nis suppose
ton on the trea.'y VI 1856.
About t-,,o .nonths ago the chiefs of
the h:-...a gathered and decided to send
: envoy to the great white father at
Washington and ask that their money
be given them. Henry G. Ashmun of
Sault Ste. Marie. after weeks spent in
conference with the department of
Indian affairs and the department of
the Interior at Washington returned
with the information that the govern
ment owes the Indians nothing, and
that they have no claim whatever to
the vast acres in this district the
tribe once ruled as its own.
Out of the gloom that has descend
ed over the band shines single ray
Of hope. Mr.. Ashmun was informed
in Washington that both the Indian
affairs and interior departments are
prepared to urge congress to grant
each Indian family eighty acres Of
land in the Cass lake national forest
reserve in Minnesota. The hope is
expressed that the three hundred
families. remnants of a once mighty
Indian and, i'll be able to migrate to
their new home next year. The land
that government officials propose to
offer is cut-over territory with ex-
ceptionally good soil, it is said.
The bill providing the grant aready
has been introduced in congress and
the representatives Of the local In
dians returns with information indi-
eating it has good chance Of pass
age.
II the grant is made, the givern-
ment has pointed out. it will be in the
nature Of moral. not treaty obi
cation.
The tract is to be visited during
the coming summer by government
surveying party that will report on
the character Of the land. This will
be done for the information of con-
gress.

EXHIBIT WORK

The Cloverland Boys Handicraft
Club and the Forget-me-not- Girls
Garment Club had joint exhibit of
their work at the high school, Ska
nee, last week. Mr.. Kettunen of Mar
quette, the assistant state leader of
boys clubs, and Miss Ruth Cresswell,
the assistant state leader of girls
clubs, were present to evaluate the
work completed.
The first award of the boys work
was given to John McIver, president
of the club. who has been an excellent
leader and an inspiration to the men,
bers. Second place was given to Rex
ford Erickson, whose work displayed
excellence in workmanship and quail
ity as well. Ralph Peterson came in
for third place. :.
Miss Cresswell expressed her diff
ficulty in placing the girls, for their
work was all so well and neatly done
After some deliberation first place
was given to Martha Gilman, second
place to Pauline Hartvigh and third
to Inez NORM. The above were all
high school students. so consideration
was given to the grade girls as fol
lows: Madeline Lydman, first; Beat
rice Rylander, second: and Anna Pet
erson. third.
After the Judging of the work, q
luncheon was served to the state lead
ers and Mr.. Benjamin, also to the vis-
iting parents and pupils. (.

LAST CHANCE TO. SIGN
FOR CHEESE FACTORY

The farmers of L'Anse townshi,,
have shown the most interest in at
tending the cheese factory meetings
held last week.
The meeting at the town hall had n
fairly representative gathering last
Saturday evening and nearly half of
the cows necessary to provide the
daily minimum of three thousand
pounds of milk were subscribed.
The meeting organized by electing
Mr.. E. j. Westphal president of the

sociation and he will also act as sec
retary until a meeting of all patrons
can be had.
1t was decided that short canvass
of this territory should be made to
bring up the necessary quota Of cows
to provide the minimum Of three
thousand pounds Of milk daily and
The meeting at Herman was also
well attended and was held at Charles
Dantes' pool hall, and twenty-seven
cows were signed, among them being
John Keranen with eighteen. AS
there were few fresh cows in Herman
at this time owing to the long win
ter and lack of good hay, those who
had cows freshening later agreed to
sign when ready.
Skanee is also said to be badly hit
in this way at this time, but in thirty
days things will be greatly changed
and there will be an abundance OF
milk.
Mr.. Dickerman returned home Sun
day after the Herman meeting and
stated that he would wait few days
to give US time to see what could be
done before deciding to accept anoth-
er offer elsewhere. He was greatly
impressed by the dairy possibilities
Of this section and was surprised that
our people here were not better in
formed as to the greater profit in sell
ing to cheese factory that to a but
ter factory. There is difference Of
nearly sixty cents hundred pounds
of milk in favor Of the cheese factory
and lots less work for the housewife.
The whey alone for stopping pigs
makes them grow faster as better,
bringing quicker profit.
The Skanee meeting failed to ma
terialize ewing to insufficient time for
notice and it is hoped that enough
farmers will sign up when canvassed
to make up sufficient of load for

Baraga farmers are greatly inter
ested but have been holding off in the
hope Of getting the factory located
ever there.
If the farmers will come forward
promptly now and sign up it will be
POSSIBLE to have the factory in opera
tion by the last of June and all inter-

DEPENDABLE SEED AND
BETTER CULTURE TO DE-
CREASE PRODUCTION COST

This is subject that is as old as
agricultural extension work. 1t has
been talked from our institute plat
form, it has been spread broadcast
by our agricultural press. Today, il
is one of the most vital points to con-
slider in this question of decreased
cost of production, in. order that there
may be a wider margin of profit at
selling time.
Is this subject of concern to your
community? Look around, see how
many farmers are sowing seeds Of
varieties that are adapted to your
conditions. If it is an adapted vari-
ETY., what is the condition Of the seed
Last year, weather conditions were
favorable for Spring sown grains.
Much Of the grain harvested is unfit
for seed. We are not giving any pub
licity to any particular variety, as
long as it is dependabfe one.
Seed Condition
Sow only seed that is plump, sound
and Of good vitality. Plump seed is
an indication of plenty of plant food,
insuring thrifty plant. 1t is just
as important to have strong, vigor-
Gus grain plants to produce grain, as
it is to have a strong, vigorous dairy
COW to produce milk. The tanning
mill will aid in removing light mature
grain so that only the plump, sound
grains remain. Cracked seed will
not grow, so remove it and sow only
plump, sound seed.
Test Seeds for Smut
Eeach year, when we sow our seeds
in the Spring. we like, to believe that
we have done everything necessary
to insure a big crop, providing the
season is favorable. It is easy to fig
ure on paper, so many acres sown
should produce so many bushels OF
grain. We know, that no matter how
well we do the things necessary to
insure big yields, there is the posi-
bility of many things happening to
reduce the yields over which we have
little or no control. BY using for
maldehyde on our grain. we are elm.
mating one source of loss each year
that takes from to $3.50 Of the yield
on fields that are not treated.
Better Cultural Practices
On considering the crops situation
throughout the peninsula, there are
many cultural practices that can be
improved and thereby increase oui
yield per acre. which is the basis OF
economic production.
Early Spring sowing is essential tc
obtain maximum yields. We are ir
for a late Spring. Planting will be
delayed, but let's be up and dQing
get those Spring crops in early. VIZ
are always sure Of plenty of moisture
early in the season: let our crops gel
started and make the best use Of it
We never know what kind of Fal
season we will have. so let's sow ear.
w. Our experimental evidence MI
shows that early Spring sowing in
creases Yields per acre.
Thorough preparation of seed bed
is an important factor and practice
in producing big Yields. The most
successful farmers are cranks on pre-
narino the seed bed The fellow whit
lis careless and puts his seed in poor
" prepared ground is the last fel
low who can afford to. Let's be Z
crank and sow on good seed bed.
