$4,000 Muskrats Are Taken
In Winneshiek Bottoms

Prairie du Chen, Wis.-SiXty-f1ve
thousand muskrats have been taken
from the Winneshiek bottoms during
the past season and their hides and
pelts will be made into Hudson seal
for milady's wear probably next Win
ter
Since the supreme court ruled that
the great stretch of swamp lands
along the Mississippi between Lynx
Vile and DeSoto, containing 1880
acres, could not be put into drain
age district and converted into farm
lands because it would destroy wild
life, the owners of the lands have set
about to determine the, extent of fur
bearing animals it produces. The in
formation came from the hunters and
trappers themselves, together with the
fur dealers adjacent to the territory
which is % miles long and averages
about mile wide. One of the prom1-
nent trappers of Ferryville volunteer
ed the information that the best TX
day catch he ever made in his life was
sos rats from the Winneshiek bot
toms. A Lynxville trapper declared
that he took nearly 5000 rats from a
60-acre swamp. The total muskrats
taken from all sources in the district
is conservatively estimated at $4,000
and valued at an average of $500
each.
The land owners have served notice
not only on the trappers to cease tres
passing but they propose to patrol
and propagate the fur-bearing ami
mails for their own benefit hereafter
and will prohibit fish rescue work on
all inland waters with the idea that
they will seine all the landlocked
lakes and bayous and sell the finger
ling and fry to adjoining states where
clubs and private preserves are clam
oring for bass, pike, pickerel, crap
pies, sunfish and all other varieties OF
game fish which the government has
been able to supply only in small por-
lions.
Never have the land owners sought
any part of the proceeds of the hunt
ing, trapping or fishing from this
great tract, in fact, it was not known
such enormous amounts of fur and
fish were being taken from it.

II. S. Senate Passes
War Pension Boost

WashingtOn-Only 10 votes were
cast in the senate Tuesday against
the bill of Senator Bursum, RepuDll-
can. New Mexico, increasing Civil war
and other pensions
The bill was vetoed a year ago by
President Harding. 1t was estimated
then it would cost the government
s1OS 5000 annually, these being tig-
ures of the commissioner OF pensions.
The bill, in the form it passed the
senate Tuesday, 81 to 10, would have
the same figures applying to it.
Whether President Coolidge will
follow President Hardings example
and likewise veto the bill is purely
matter of surmise No expression has
come from the White House about It,
President Harding declared the meas
ure disbursement to every effort
to reduce expenditure and thereby re-
lieye the federal burdens of taxation.
The bill as passed would pay t1at
rate of $72 a month to veterans OF the
Mexican and Civil wars. The present
law pays $72 to those who are dls
abled. but pays $50 a month to 10000
others. For each dependent, the
monthly allowance is made nat 80
instead of from 81 to So.
widows of Civil war veterans would
receive from $50 to $4S month. The
present rate is $40. widows OF Mexi-
can war and War of 1912 veterans
would receive $50 q month. instead of
the present $50.
The bills advocates insist it will
only cost the treasury $s5,OOO,OOO
wear more. This is on top OF the cur
rent appropriation of $3.50 100000 for
payment of pensions for 1925.
Senator Dial, Democrat, South Caro-
lima, charged that in its present form
the bill would mean $S1 100000 would
go annually to widows who were not
born when the Civil war ended" He
branded the bill as purely and simply
an effort to buy votes for the RepubI-
Iicau Darty"
