Guaranteed Seed Spells Crop
Success in Yields.

Seed dealers are taking more pre-
cautions in placing on the market
only those seeds which fully meet the
standards adopted by the state de-
partment of agriculture, according
to a statement made by c. P. Nor
CORD, commissioner of agriculture.
Out of 2S,766 samples tested dur
ing the past eight years, only 1893
have been condemned by the de-
partment Seeds of poor quality,
low vitality and those containing
noxious weeds are not allowed to be
sold on the Wisconsin market.
"Noxious weeds are distinct
menace to the prosperity Of Wis
consin," declares Mr.. Norgord. For
years they have been neglected until
they have taken possession of many
farms and spread until they threaten
to overrun the state unless drastic
measures are taken to prevent their
spread. The problems of the de
partment is one of education. Neg
lect on the part Of the farmers has
been due to lack of appreciation Of
the seriousness Of the problem and
also Of the best methods of control.
According to Mr.. Norgord, farmers
are saved thousands of dollars an
nually through the inspection of
commercial seeds and fertilizers by
the department Of agriculture.
Chemistry is the only means of de-
termining the value of seeds and
fertilizers. Mr., Norgord points
out that by making it necessary for
the manufacturer or dealer to license
these products before placing them
on the market and by checking up
by inspectors, the state protects the
farmer against fraud and deception.
Every bag must be labeled as to its
contents.

Should Have Touris.s' camp Sic.

j. f. Coad, representing the North
ern Wisconsin Resort association,
during the discussion following his
talk TO Hurley citizens last Friday
evening, hit the nail right on the
head when he said that Hurley should
have q tourists camp site.
Some Of US have well been aware
Of the fact for some time. Others
are just waking up.
Mr. Coad knows the value of a
camp site for tourists TO city. He
has given considerable attention and
effort to promoting the advantages
for recreation in Northern Wiscon-
sin. He knows and understands
he touring game and he knows that
in order to properly take care of the
increasing number of tourists city
must have a camp site. Most
tourists like to camp out Some of
them, of course, take to the hotels.
But the majority of them carry their
own camping outfits and camp
wherever night overtakes them when
on trip A good many of them do
it to avoid hotel expense, while others
from choice.
Almost every city in the state has
q camp site. The town or city with
camp site is given prominence on
most maps for tourists and they come
to know those that have provided
facilities for them. They avoid
those that have not these facilities.
Therefore, in order to be up-to-
date Hurley must have a camp site.
The touring game is but in its in
fancy. Great numbers are taking it
up every year. The expense of pro-
viding camp site is not very heavy.
The maintenance is nil. The pro-
blem is to get the right location.
II is to be hoped that Mr.. Coad
started something that will result in
Hurley getting into the procession.
1t is said that it takes a stranger
to tell the people of town what they
need, and that the townspeople will
listen to stranger and follow his
advice. We hope it proves true in
this case. Now is the time to start
the ball rolling.

Conservation Preserves Game in
Pooulous Area.

About this time" as the old farm
ers' almanacs used to say, a fire.
quently occurring paragraph in New
England country newspapers reads
somewhat as follows:
THE annual game supper was held
last night. There was q large at
tendance and the hunters provided a
bounteous repast"
Although the wild turkey which
set the style for Thanksgiving din
ners on the occasion of the Pilgrims
first Thanksgiving day three hundred
years ago has disappeared from New
ENGLAND woods, three centuries Of
hunting with firearms has far from
exterminated the wild life from the
forests in this section. Even in the
immediate vicinity of Boston, deer
and ruffled grouse are seen occasion
ally, and squirrels, hare and foxes
are regular Inhabitants of suburban
woodland. The pheasant, not a
native game bird but introduced some
years ago, has flourished in Mass
achusetts and southern New Hamp-
shire. Geese and an abundance of
waterfowl pause on New England
lakes and streams in their migra-
tons.
Only in Maine does the moose per
sist, but bears. common in that state,
are still found also in the remote sec
tions of the mountain country in
New Hampshire, Vermont and
western Massachusetts. Wildcats
are shot or trapped in considerable
numbers every season. In the fur
bearing category raccoons. skunks
and muskrats are still plentiful, and
in the wilder districts mink and otter
are infrequentIy found The wolves
are gone; 1t is only rarely that a
phanther is reported and then with
doubtful authenticity, and the dam
building beavers now are few.
That the rapidly increasing num-
Der of hunters has not more serious
ly depleted the supply of game in
New England is due largely to con-
servation measures. For many
years all the states in this section
have enforced as strictly as possible
the closed season provisions of the
game laws, and in recent open sea-
sons the bag limits on various classes
of game birds and animals have been
made increasingly smaller. Licenses
also are required of all hunters, and
in the case of non-residents high fees
are demanded

Asscmblyman Mark on Fish and
Game Committee.

Assemblyman H. NJ. Mark of the
Vilas-Iron counties district was
placed on the fish and game com
mittee when appointments to com
mittees were made in the state leg
islature Tuesday.
Important changes in the game
and fish laws will probably be made
at this session of the state legisla-
ture and with man on the com
mittee right from the heart Of the
game and fish country in Northern
Wisconsin it may be expected that
the changes viii have some sem
blance of reason to them. Hit and
miss methods have been the rule in
the matter Of game and fish laws for
many years, due largely to the fact
that men unfamiliar with fish and
game life and conditions have had
their hands in it.

Rabbit Season Closed Monday.

With the close of the rabbit hunt
ing season Monday there is ban on
the hunting of all game animals, in
the eyes of the law. The rabbit sea-
son, which opened October %, closed
Jan. Is.
To most hunters it seems ridiculous
to close the rabbit season so early.
1t is contended that it should be
allowed to run another month or so
and that the season should be opened
earlier, for as the season now stands
it is practically shortened thirty days
under the provision which prohibits
dogs in the woods before, during and
following the deer hunting season for
a certain time. And to hunt rabbits
successfully dogs are necessary.
Sportsmen are urging changes in the
rabbit season and it may be brought
about at this session of the legisla-
ture.

PANTHER HACKERS NOT ENTHUSIASTIC OVER OUT LOOK
Collapse Before Union Causes Apprehension In 0Wenton
 Ranks

The first game of the annual five game series with Howard college set for Monday afternoon at o'clock on Berry Field the packers of the Gold and Black are much depressed over the probable outcome of the series. The last game played by Bir mingham Southern gave Panther packers something serious to think about. The Methodists were beaten, Incidentally, by score of 13 to and displayed one of the most wretched defensive games of their career This disaster followed close on the heels of "a great one-hit game pitched by the Howard ace. Ham Stevens, against the very team that licked the Partners by aforesaid score Satur- day afternoon, is regarded by stu dents as the handwriting on the wall"
 To add to Panther woe Greek" Griffin, veteran catcher and regular second baseman, cleanup man and hitter extraordinary, will watch the game Monday afternoon from the grandstand and may watch all suc- ceeding ones in the same manner for the rest of the season. Greek sustained badly sprained ankle when Pennington, Union first base man. slid into him at the plate in Fridays game. Griffins absence from the game will badly weaken tho Panther lineup.
 Although his position is being filled fairly well by Ed Howell, in solar as fielding is concerned, his hitting will be sadly missed. He is a veteran player and one of the few Panther batters who might have chance to connect one of Hams fast ones.
 Just who Coach Brown will send to the mound is problematical. He Will use one of his right handlers Against the Bulldogs, however. Coach ACopes selection is limited to one

 Clay Nelson, the Tiremens' big first baseman, showed midseason form in handling hot ones around first. In the seventh, with three on, Clay lined one to deep center for three bags, scoring on the thrQw-in.
 Hendricks also showed up well with the stick. getting three-bag ger with two on in the first inning. Big Boy May got four cut of five.
 The Knights of Columbus put up a nice game of ball. Their players, around one of the oldest men in anna teur ball, Mickey O'Brien, who played a jamb-up game. Mackin. behind the bat, also played a fine brand of ball. Manager Collier has a wrecking crew in Nelson, TrerC, Mays, Hendricks, Marshall and Brunson.

STEVENS TO PITCH
 FIRST GAME FOR BULLDOG OUTFIT
First Game At Howard, Sec 0nd At 0Wenton
 Thursday

The Bulldog of Howard college is primed and waiting for the opening game of the 1923 City Championship series with the Owenton Panther. The first game of the five to be played to decide the titie-unless one of the two falls by the wayside be- fore then-will be played in the Bulldogs back yard Monday after noon:
 The first game, scheduled for Ber- ry Field. will begin at 3 o'clock, it was announced by athletic officials of the two schools Saturday. After Field Monday. the two teams will switch and play on the Panther dia- mond, Munger Bowl, Thursday after noon.
 Coach Cope. of Howard, has several things on which he is basing his One of them is Calvin Hamilton Stevens. none other than the same Ham Stevens who has been pitching such good baseball in minor college circles of this section for two or three seasons.
 Ham has pitched at least two splendid ball games for the Bulldogs this season. He held Marion Ca- dets. former teammates of his, com pletely at his mercy in one game of the series on Berry Field. and during the past week shut out the Union Bulldogs with one scratch hit. Ham has been making a record in low hit and strik -out departments this sea son.
 It has been intimated that Stevens will pitch all of the games against Birmingham Southern. The schedule is so arranged that the games do not come too closely together, and it would be possible for Ham to work in all of them. At any rate, he will pitch the opening game.
 The remainder of the team is in good shape. and lines up something like this: Griggs, first base; Dawson, second base; Laekey shortstop Brindley. third base; Shelton, Run- yon and Garfield, outfield. Frog Bains Toby Stubbs and Eb Cox are the men who help Stevens do the pitching.

Sloss beat Cudahy Packers, 8 to 1, in the first game of the City league, eastern division, before a large crowd of followers Saturday afternoon at Sloss By-Product play grounds. The crowd was enthusiastic and con- tinued to drive their favorites at full speed throughout the entire nine in- nings. The team of Cudahy Packing company drew first blood and their first two runs were the result of a sharp single by Worthington, fol- lowed by luscious triple off the bat of D. Townley.
 This lead was short lived, however as the Sloss By Product team tied the score in the second inning by a single by Fallow, followed by two doubles by Hamilton and Fleck.
 The game was from that point very close up to the eighth. when Gibson began to weaken fer Cudahy and the heavy hitting crew of the By-Product team by five hits and walk sewed the game up with four additional counters.
