SULPHUR OUTPUT is LARGE

The quantity of sulphur produced in
1920, ,255,249 long tons-was the
largest produced in any year except
1918, when the output reached $685.
525 long tons, according toathe United
States Geological Survey. The value
of the shipments in 1920 is estimated
at $30,O0O,0O0. The sulphur pro-
duced in 1921 amounted to 1873, $50
long tons,. which is about one-third
more than was produced in 1920. On
the other hand, the shipments in 1921
were nearly one-third less than in
1920, amounting to only 945,344 long
tons, as against 1,517,625 long tons,
/. 1t is therefore evident that large
stocks of sulphur are now on hand.

THE SPRING FLOWER

Those who were out in the woods
last Sunday to gather Trailing Ar
butus, the early spring flower in
this north country, were greeted with
a profusion of blossoms in the woods,
and it is many years since the flowers
were so beautiful and of such fra
GRANGE.
The flowers were almost as large
as lilac blossoms and in full bloom,
and the ground was fairly white and
pink with the blossoms. Trailing
arbutus is the first flower to appear
in the spring and it has been chosen
as the favorite of northern Wiscon-
sin flowers.
Due to the heavy snow last winter
the plants were protected and the re-
suit has been an abundance of flowers
this spring.

NOTICE TAX PAYERS

We are now ready to collect the
1929 taxes, all receipts being ready
so that we can give statements to
those who want them. We will es-
pecially appreciate your obtaining a
statement of your taxes now, instead
Of waiting until the last few days, as
it requires as much time for US to
render a statement as to it does to
collect the same tax. ---- ..----
We also urge that if it is possible
to do so please pay up early as there
is always a rush at the close of the
season: and it is impossible for the
office force to render as efficient SER
vice during the rush as otherwise. The
time will not be extended this year
as last, as the legislature passed the
eXtension-law only as an emergency
act. and to apply only to the year
1922. Consequently the time for pay
ing will expire on February lst 1922,
ard all parties failing to pay by that
time will be DELINQUENT and damages
will be charged according to law.
Respectfully,
W. P. FARRAR, Sheriff & Tax Col.

store will be opened and there will be
