Sell POppies This Week.

The sale of poppies in Hurley
this week has been conducted by
the Woman's Auxiliary to the
American Legion. A shipment of
500 poppies was received and yes
terday it was reported that almost
the entire lot had been sold.
Poppies are being sold all over
the country and IN some places one
day has been set aside and design
ated as Poppy Day" The pur-
chaser of a poppy not only shows
reverence for our departed heroes
but he IS also helping along a good
cause. The poppies are made by
disabled soldiers in various hospit-
ais throughout the country. The
soldier IS paid one cenG~for making
them, so besides being provided
with a useful occupation the dis
abled vet gets financial return
from the sale of the flowers.

Reduction in Freight Rates.

Sweeping reductions in freight
rates throughout the country have
been ordered ~ the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The re.
ductions are to be effective on July
first. The reductions ordered will
cut the present freight rates about
ten per cent, the decision of the
commission states.
The commission called on the
carriers to notify it by May 3lst,
whether the rate reductions pre-.
scribed will be carried into effect
without a formal order by the COM
mission.
In making the reductions the
Commission cut nearly in half the
freight rate increases authorized on
August 25th, 1920.
The announcement Of the rate
cuts came as surprise.

Ashland Wrestler Defeated.

Elmer Sanders, Ashland wrestler,
met his master in the person Of
Steve Savage, Of Chicago, in a
bout at Ashland Tuesday evening
Sanders took the first fall in one
hour and 10 minutes and the second
fall went to Savage in Al minutes.
The referee awarded the match to
Savage after Sanders had several
times crawled off the mat to avoid
being thrown. Sanders evidently is
one of those kinds of wrcstlers who
cannot take defeat. A press ac-
count of the match says that Sand
ers used unfair methods during the
first part of the bout and then show
ed yellow streak by practically
quitting rather than be thrown
again. Sanders actions were a
disappointment to his Ashland adj
mirers, many of whom have lost
all respect for him. The bout was
staged under the auspices of the
/ iremen,

Moore Road Job to Start Soon.

Wm. Weber. former county
highway commissioner, will start
work ON the road Job at Moore as
soon as the necessary machinery
and other equipment is on the
ground. Mr.. Weber was awarded
the contract for this piece of road
work at meeting in the office Of
the division engineer at Rhine
lander short time ago. His price
was $40, 900.
About a mile of new road will be
constructed near Moore so as to
eliminate two bad curves. The
present road from Hurley to Mellen
crosses to the south side of the 500
Line railroad east of Moore and a
short distance west of Moore again
crosses to the north side. The new
road will continue north of the
tracks from the point where il
crosses the tracks east of Moore,
thus doing away. with these Two
bad crossings and curves.

Trapping Season Takes Heavy Toll.

That the trapping season should
be closed, thus prohibiting the
catching of mink, muskrat, beaver.
otter and raccoon. is the belief of
the State Conservation Commits
sion, according TO communication
sent to secretaries of rod and gun
clubs in counties in the state. The
communication has been sent out
for the purpose of getting the
opinions of the clubs relative to the
matter of closing the trapping
season.
Indications are that muskrat
mink, beaver, otter and raccoon
are trapped out so closely that it is
dangerous to permit the trapping
of these various fur bearing animals
another season, says the com
munication.
Since the legislature does not
meet until January, 1925, too late
to take any action to give protec-
ton to the animals before the open
ing of the next trapping season,
the commission has decided to pro
ceed under the provisions of section
% 81 of the statutes, which gives
the commission power to close the
season if necessary to protect the
animals. Hearings will have to be
held in all of the counties and
petitions presented to the commits
sion signed by at least twenty five
residents of each county in which
hearings are to be held. The petl.
tions must be presented preliminary
to the hearings. Although ii is a
tremendous task to cover the state
and hold hearings in all of the
counties the commission feels that
it is worth the effort inasmuch that
serious consequences are sure to
result to some, if not all, of these
species should trapping be permit
ed another year.
According to reports filed with
the commission there were trapped
the last season, extending over the
fall of 1927 and the spring of 1922,
24o,6I5 muskrat, % otter, 81 7o3
mink, S,629 beaver and 500
raCCoon.
Trapping licenses to the number
of 23,733 at s. 50 each were issued,
9,I66 boys trapping permits at IS
cents and 973 beaver trapping
licenses at $500.

COUNTY BOARD SELECTS
SITES FOR PARKS
One Will Be Located on Tank Lake at
Mercer and the Other on Lake
Superior North of Saxon.

The sites for two county parks
and camping places for tourists were
selected at special meeting Of the
board of supervisors Thursday fore
noon.
One of the parks will be located
at Mercer. A tract of approximate
| ly five acres of land fronting on
Tank Lake has been secured as a
park site for a consideration of 5000
The land was formerly owned by
Hans Anderson.
The other park will be located
north of Saxon at the end of the
road leading from Saxon to Lake
Superior. The north line of the
park site will be few rods from
The lake shore. The tract includes
approximately FIVE acres and can be
bought for $50 an acre from DR..
Andrews of Ashland.
Title to the park sites will be
turned over to the county as soon
as the papers are made out, the
owners having agreed to sell at the
prices stated.
The parks will be made ready
for use as soon as possible. Stumps
will have to be removed from the
Mercer site and the place improved
otherwise, but it is understood that
this work will be done by the
former owner before it is turned
over to the county, the purchase
price covering the work of clearing
the site.
The park site selections were at
tended by considerable discussion
among the members of the board
over their relative advantages for
the purposes for which they are
desired. A committee to investi-
gate sites was appointed at meet
ing of the county board early in
the spring This committee has
since visited a number of sections
of the county and carefully investi-
gated prospective locations.
Other business transacted at the
special meeting included authorize
ton of the purchase by the county
highway and bridge committee of
gravel beds wherever it is deemed
necessary. Several gravel beds
are under consideration, some of
them being located within
reasonable distance of gravel Jobs
contemplated this year. The price
of the beds cannot exceed the sum
of s., 900 appropriated for that
pun poSc.
The highway committee was also
instructed to place guard rails and
necessary signs at points along the
highways IN the county at which
there may be an element of danger
to travellers.
The next session of the county
board, an adjourned annual meet
ing, will be held June 2G.
