CAMPSITE MUST
BE KEPT SAFE
State Board Sends Com
munication Regarding
Tourists Camps.
MAKE. TOURISTS HELP

Kenosha, as one of the cities of
Wisconsin where tourist camp is
maintained, was appealed to today to
take the steps necessary to safeguard
that camp by regulations in a COM
munication received by city officials
from the Wisconsin State Board of
Health Practically all of the reg
ulations mentioned have been en-
forced this year.
Accompanying the appeal was a
series of posters which when the tour
list season. opens proper, will be posted
at the tourist camp. Police regula-
tions to comply with these sugges-
tions are to be formally adopted and
put into effect.
Make Camp Sites Safe.
The communications from the state
board appeal for safe and sanitary
tourists camps not only for the sake
of the tourists but more especially
for the sake of the residents of the
cities in which the camps are located.
The bulletin reads as follows:
"The tourist and camping season
is with u.s. 49, G
Make the tourist camp site safe
and inviting
Make the visitor comprehend that he
is expected to cooperate to that end.
If your community maintains a
camp site see that it complies with
the sanitary requirements so that it
may be an asset to the community.
An unsafe camp site is liability and
would better be closed.
Su0pest Close SunerVisiOn
We feel that supervision of camp
sites is local function, as it can be
carried out more effectively and
economically by local authorities. We
stand ready, however, to cooperate
whenever our services are needed
Instruct your local health officer or
some other person to visit the camp
at least twice each week and oftener
if necessary. Clothe him with au-
thority to act to enforce essential
sanitary requirements.
Maintaining your camp site in ac-
cordance with posters here enclosed
will be greatly appreciated by the
travelling public, and will materially
aid in maintaining proper sanitation
and better health conditions. Fasten
these posters to board, give them
few coats of outdoor varnish and they
will weather better. Post these rules
conspicuously.
Tolerate no serious infringement
upon these rules and such additional
regulations as you may have. Cau-
tions and enlighten the offenders.
Provide penalty and enforce it if
necessary to maintain order and
safety. Charge nominal fee if
necessary to maintain the camp site
properly.
OF Value to Community.
The tourist from within and OUT
side the state is apt to Judge your
municipality as to cleanness by the
order of things at the camping
grounds. If it cannot be maintained
clean, close it.! Your interest and
that Of the visitor are thus best served.
If there is any doubt as to the
purity of the drinking water, have it
analysed before the season opens. If
from we'll guard it against top drip
pings, surface inflow and underground
seepage. Make it safe

 Feeling that you have a soft snap makes you take things easy, prevents your extend ing yourself and drawing on your powers, causes you to postpone effort, assures your failure.

Commencing with the pres ent issue, the Herald will pub fish a list of the instruments pertaining to mining filed in the district recorders office during the preceding week. The new department will be carried on under the caption "in the Recorders Office" and will include notices of locat- ion, proofs of labor, options on mining claims and other in struments of similar char acter. It is believed that the publication of these items will not only be of considerable local interest but also of more than nominal advertising val ue to the district, as they will te"d to show the develop ment of local mining activities t,..1 ar the same time bring the community into closer touch with its basic industry.

Measured by the expen- SC of continuing annual ass essment work for a few years. the cost is not excessive, while the benefits resulting are manifold. Not only does the process do away with the con- tinual expense of maintain ing ownership of properly but also adds greatly to the value by comforting a title that cannot be questioned. In addition the fact that a claim is patented lifts it out of the so called wild cat" class and stamps it as worth while in the eyes of prospective invest ors, who naturally reason that the owner of ground that dis plays no distinctive evidence of value would hardly go to the expense of securing a pat ent.

Fred Stork, member of the Dominion Parliament for the Prince Rupert District has announced that plans for the erection of a grain elevator at Prince Rupert are under way and engineers will make a survey, probably before the close of the present month. According to MT. Stork it is proposed to have the elevator in operation in time to handle the 1925 wheat crop.
 The project is an outgrowth of the success attained at Vancouver, where, since the installation of grain shipping facilities three years ago, grain shipments have increas- ed from 8 scant 100000 bushels to more than 25,OOO, 900 last year.
 The underlying reason for the proposal is to be found in the fact that the Canadian National Railway runs thru a section of the Canadian wheat belt from which grain shipments can be forwarded to Prince Rupert at considerably lower cost than to Vancouver. Another factor is that Prince Rupert is considerably closer to the Orient, than Vancouver, which means lower shipping costs to the Far East, which consumes a large part of the Canadian wheat crop.
 Taking into account the var ious factors which make Prince Rupert an advantageous point for grain shipments, it is appar-

BOOST

Tell us not in mournful num- bers that this towns on the bum; rouse up from your peaceful slumbers; get out and make things hum. If we go to work in earnest we can make things hit on high; "dust thou are, to dust return eGt," is a song of by and by. All the past is done forever you can't call one moment back-and the future may come never, this is true, so help me Mack. Now's the time to do your boosting, do not wait tomorrow's dawn, in the grave you may be roasting all your boosting chances gone. Lay aside your little hammer, grab a horn and toot a few; squelch the kicker's dadblamed hammer with a joyful blast or two. This old town is sure pippin', and we ought to boost it big, when we hear some growler yip- pin, we should smite him on the wig. Mighty oaks that grow and flourish came from acorns plain and small; with your boosting you may nour- ish something that may help us all;. something that may prove a blessing to the toiling sons of men-that's the point that I am stressing-boost and boost, then boost again. People love the smiling booster, and for him they loudly cheer, but they hate the knocking rooster, long to pelt him in the ear. Boost your country and your business, boost the people in your town, they will dub you wise and witty and you'll gain a wide renown.

 An increasing number of min eral surveys indicates that To- |cal interest in patenting min ing ground is steadily develop ing. Until year ago not more than a dozen or so properties in the Salmon river district had been surveyed for patenting purposes, despite the fact that in many instances ten years or more had elapsed since their owners acquired possession. And of the number surveyed less than half dozen have actually been put through the patenting processes.
 Now, however, it appears that claim owners are commencing to realize the advantages of having their titles confirmed by government decree and at the same time escaping the trouble and expense incident to the performance of annual assessment work.
 During the past summer some thing close to two dozen properties were surveyed and there are many indications that the number will be largely in- lcreased during the coming op- Een season.
 It would seem that the added selling value given to a claim
