Villas County News,
Eagle River, Wis.
Dear Sir am much interested
in the movement looking toward
a closed season for deer. IL be-
hoovcs everyone who has the best
interests of this wonderful coun-
try at heart to get behind this
movement with vigor and put it
over. The longer the closed seas
on the better. If Northern Wis
consin were one large well-stock-
ed deer park in which the beauti-
full animals were entirely free
from molestation, it would give
the state a distinction which
would be inevitable indeed. 1t
would add a picturesqueness to
the scenery which would draw
many thousands of tourists. Per-
haps many of the old settlers here
are inclined to look upon the deer
without thrill or reverence, as
only something TO eat or a play
thing for sportsmen. As for my
self. | have not been here long
enough 10 forget the thrill at
seeing them running wild in their
native state. / have no desire to
kill them, but TO see more of
them. | know that ninety-nine
per cent of those city people
whom we desire to attract 10 the
beauties of the Northern Wiscon-
sin woods and lakes feel the same
way. Let US protect these crea-
lures before it is too late.
Yours truly,
Ellis o. Jones,

plosives will be handled by cOun-
IL agents or through the land
clearing section of the Wisconsin
College of Agriculture.
Swenehart announces ~that Wis
consin farmers have already used
more than two million pounds OF
this explosive. They report good
results from its use and are cal
ling for more. The Wisconsin
land clearers have found picric
acid stronger than dynamite, and
excellently adapted to land clear
ing. The state investigators agree
that the picric explosive does not
cause the so-called dynamite head
aches. and does not freeze. They
say it is more resistant TO mOis-
ture, can be stored safely and cas-
lily and all together is well adapt
ed in every way for stump and
rock shooting.
Swenehart states that in cOun-
tries which do not employ agri-
cultural agents or where the de-
mand is less than a carload, or
ders may be placed directly with
his office. In such cases delivery
will be made by local freight
from a nearby carload distribut-
ing point and local freight charg-
es will be paid by the farmer who
gets the material.
Farmers desiring less than 100
pounds should combine wit h
neighbors to order a full case,
SAYS Swenehart. "Picric acid
comes approximately three car
tridges to the pound, each car
fridge being equivalent to a car
fridge of dynamite. The cost per
cartridge is about four cents. AS
reshipment, storage and demur-
rage have to be added TO the cost
of distribution, farmers are being
urged to get the material at the
cars and thus save money. Re
member, that one pound of eX-
plosive used early this spring
when soil is wet will do as much
work as one and one-half pounds
, or two pounds in the dry season.
