REPORT OF DEER KILLED

A thirty-five per cent decrease in
fle liaz.s sr OF deer killed during the
season just passed over the number
killed a year ago was the information
disclosed here today by the state con-
servation commission. The total num-
Der of bucks killed this year was 1859
as compared with 4,269 in 1921. The
total weight of the deer killed this
year was 467,3O9 pounds, as compared
with total of 6S9, 240 pounds a year
ago.
Lack of snow and continued soft
weather, with the bucks seeking the
thickets of the cedar swamps, were
the causes attributed to the decrease
this year by Chairman w. E. Parter
of the Commission recently. Bayfield,
county led in the number of deer shot
with total of 343 while Price with
329 and Sawyer with 22S took second
and third places.

THE FARMERS TRADEMARK

When you go into store to buy
supplies you don't say Il want a sack
of flour" or give me a cake of SOAP"
You call out the name of the flour
and the name of the soap, because you
know those names stand for certain
type of flour and soap goods with a
reputation. Every merchant has firm
name or a name for his store, and
he is proud of that name. Then why
should not the farmer be proud
enough of his farm and the products
that come off of it to give that farm
name? With name to live up to,
a reputation to maintain, the farmer
will take a new pride in his place and
new interest in his business. Select
an appropriate name and paint it on
the barn in nice letters or on a sign
board at the gate, so those who pass
may see it and know thereby that you
are progressive and believe in the pro
ducts you have for sale. There is no
reason why every farm around Eagle
River shouldn't hav an appropriate
name-It's your trademark, and folks
will soon learn the value of it. Farm
ing is only business after all, and a
mighty big business in this locality.

AND PAROcHIAL SCHOOL

The st. Peters Catholic Church So
ciety have recently closed an extern
sive real estate purchase consisting
of nine lots in the east part of town
at the corners of Wall and Third
streets. On the south side of Wall
street they purchased three lots Of
Z. F. Zimpelmann and directly across
two lots fronting toward the C. H.
Wiegand residence, one just east, on
which the John Shattuck home stands
and north of them three more, all
lying in a compact body. The Shat
tuck house will be utilized as the
priest house and on the corner IA
the intention to erect new church
before the end of the present year
which will probably represent an out
lay of $4,000. Later, a parochial
school building will be built upon the
lots purchased from Mr.. Zimpelmann
and when the plans have finally been
carried out as now contemplated the
st. Peters congregation will have
very fine quarters in which to house
the different activities of that denomi
nation.
The present church property one
block west of the new purchases will
we understand be offered for sale as
soon as the Catholic church can occu-
py the new buildings.

before the Lenten season. Peterson's

for the evening. This is new organi-
cation for this territory but those who

a great treat in store for lovers of
good dance music. Proceeds of the

High School Quint Won
From Alumni, 62 to Is
ALUMNI FOUND HIGH SCHOOL
TOO MUCH FOR THEM IN
FRIDAYS GAME

The High School-Alumni Basket
Ball game played here last Friday
night which most Basket Ball fans
expected would be close contest,
turned out another easy victory for
the High School five.
The High School took the lead
right from the start with fast snappy
team work which they kept up almost
thruout the entire game and soon
had their opponents at disadvantage
who lacked in endurance. The final
score was 81 to 16. OF these points
Belongyg made 16, Numerick IL, Stein
II, Bent IA and Lillrose who substi-
tuted for Nu1nerick the last five min
utes made points. Of the Alumni
D. Morgan made II, Smith 2 and Nor
rison 2. Of course, the Alumni were
greatlyhandicapped thru lack of prac-
tice. They did not have the wind to
endure the fast playing nor the team
work which only comes thru practice.
The Alumni have some excellent
material and we must give them credit
for playing one of the cleanest Alumni
games ever played here, showing that
the feeling here between the cityboys
and the High School is of the friend
Hest. On the other hand the High
team must be given credit for having
made. some great improvements as the
same group of Alumni last year beat
the same High School team by a score
of 81 to IL.
Do not forget the Elcho game here
Friday night with a preliminary by the
Three Lakes girls and High School
Freshman girls team.
