EFFORTS TO KILL BABY FISH"
LAW WILL BE MADE
Agitation Started For Return of Old
Weight and Size Limit For
Game Fish

The "baby fish" law, enacted by
the last legislature, will have hard
shedding at the coming session of the
legislature, and there are hopes of
the commission being able to kill it
before 1924.
The fish laws were changed at the
last session of the legislature, allow
ing any sized fish to be taken and
shipped. Thus, if the angler is so
inclined, he will take every fish he
hooks and still be upheld by the
law.
An instance of what happened
in Eagle River last week shows just
what the law does to game fish. One
party brought in box of twenty-six
pike with a gross weight of twenty
pounds. They had placed the
twenty-six fish in one box and failed
to realize that but ten fish in
one box was permitted. Inquiry re-
vealed that there were three pike
out of the twenty-six which weighed
two pounds each, leaving twenty
three PIKE weighing but fourteen
pounds or a trifle over nine ounces
each. These men claimed to be
sportsmen and stated that "the law
permitted the taking of any size
fish"
They were right at that. At the
meeting of the Resort Owners As
ISOLATION recently, committee
was appointed to legislate for the
placing back in the statutes of the
old weight and size limit on game
fish. Resort men and sportsmen
realize the immediate action in
stopping the taking of game fish of
any size. For years past there has
been no muskellunge fry planted in
the lake region in any quantity, and
one now sees the depletion of that
game fish if the size limit is allowed
to be dropped.

Clear the Roads-Now.
The time to clear the highways of
snow is now.
That warning may not be new, but
i must contiue to be sounded until
al the counties of the state get ac-
ton. We know well enough what
The inevitable Wisconsin winter
brings Snow is about as sure as
fsn And with it comes the block
ed highway, which for a season is of
10 more use than if we had rolled it
full of boulders. Investment in
expensive roads yields practically no
returns in many communities during
he winter months. And the
nowed-in roads do result in a de-
aded economic loss.
Enough has been done to show
that road clearing, or road rolling,
an be accomplished at a cost that is
not beyond the community. But to
% that when winter comes requires
program worked out during the
sumner and fall seasons. The dis
oaraging thing is the fact that, with
ne exception of a very few COM
nunlties, no campaign has been
Banned to keep the roads open dur

WISCONSIN WITH HER DAIRY
COWS LEADS NATION
A Few Figures Showing Why Wis
consin Is Entitled to This
Distinction.

Though less than two-thirds de-
veloped as state, Wisconsin with
2,195,000 dairy cows leads the
nation. Her nearest competitor
is New York, with 1,67S,0O0 cows.
Badger cows produce yearly ten
billion pounds of milk. This would
fill $4,000 railroad express cars,
making a train over $500 miles
long. Wisconsin's annual milk
output would make n train reaching
from San Francisco to New York
and back to the Mississippi river. IL
moving at 15 miles an hour, il would
take 1015 days for this train to pass
given point.
One-eight of the creamery butter
three-fourths of the cheddar cheese.
over so per cent of all the foreign
types of cheese (Swiss, brick, etcl
26 per cent Of condensed milks. and
almost one-fourth of all dried milks
produced in America are made in
Wisconsin's S,546 dairy manufacture
ing establishments.
The largest cooperative creamery
in the Uuited States is located in
Barron county, in a region that has
been settled less than a generation.
Twenty and six-tenths per cent of
all the manufactured dairy products
of America (butter, cheese and con
densed milks) are produced in Wis
consin Minnesota ranks second with
ga per cent; New York third with
S.5 per cent--(U. S. Department of
Commerce Report
There are more pure bred dairy
cattle in Wisconsin than in any other
state with the single exception Of
New York, Wisconsin ranks first
in Guernseys and Brown Swiss,
second in Holsteins, over 10000
Guernseys and 5000 Jerseys giving
to Wisconsin a premier position as
source for dairy stock. Last year
Wisconsin dairymen sold to other
states and foreign countries over
$4,000 head of pure bred and high
grade dairy animals, returning them
over $3,000,000.

Statistics Show Prices Going
Up Again.


Washington-The trend of whole
sale prices which has been gradually
downward since May, took decided
upturn in September, it was shown
today in statistics compiled by the
department of labor. An advance
of nearly % percent was indicated
in a compilation which included 404
commodities.
Clothes and clothing showed the
greatest increase due mainly to the
marked advances in raw silk, print
cloths and cotton yarns, according
to the figures, registering an ad-
vance of Az percent. Advances
in corn, oats, rye, wheat, hogs,
cotton, eggs and hay caused the farm
products group to rise 81 percent.
A net increase Of 31a percent also
was shown for the food group be-
cause Of the continued advance in
the price of beef and pork, butter
cheese, eggs, flour, corn meal and
sugar. A net decrease Of more
than percent was shown in build
ing materials.
As compared with a year ago,
measured by the same figures, the
general trend Of prices was shown
to have risen slightly more than one
half Of one percent.
The decrease Of nearly 28 percent
in fuel and lighting during the II
months was offset by increases oe-
curing in all other commodity
groups, ranging from one percent IN
building materials to nearly 101z
percent in clothes and clothing

bit of encouragement comes from
the steadily growing public opinion
that road clearing is as vital as road
building.
There is still time to mature plans
and get the necessary machinery for
keeping the roads open during the
coming season. If few counties
would take up the work in earnest
that would be a real gain. For
residents of other counties, seeing
the results, would not continue to
suffer inconvenience, hardships and
economic loss because their own
roads were blocked. Wisconsin will
clear its roads sometime. Why not
this year?-Milwaukee Journal.
