United States Senator Fess, of
Ohio, After Conference.

Washington, April 18-After a
conference with President Cool
idge today in the White House,
Senator Fess, Republican,, Ohio,
declared negotiations would be
continued during the summer be-
tween representatives of agricul-

provided in the McNary-Haugen
bill, which Mr.. Coolidge vetoed.
Senator Fess predicted that the

powered to buy the surplus crops

eS.

past year a large number of them
went to Milaca, where they secur-
ed marriage licenses and were

approved legal form. And that
isn't all-they have also entered
the divorce courts. William Tay-

complaint and Judge Roeser grant
ed the decree last week. Both the

Every town or village has had
its livery stable fire, and each has
gone down in history as the larg-
est ever witnessed in those places.
However, in recent years the liv-
cry stable has been giving way to
the garages, and we thought they
had also gone down as part of
the past history of the small
town. Last week the Princeton
Union carried the report of liv-
cry stable fire at Zimerman, in
which six horses and one Shetland
pony were burned. Nine horses
were driven from the burning
building. The origin of the fire
is unknown.

Find Prehistoric Sea
Bottom in Michigan

Houghton, Mich.-A sea beach
formed 1,000,0O0000 years ago, one
of the oldest in the world, is To-
Gated in the upper peninsula, ac-
cording to Prof. W. A. Seaman OF
the department of geology of Mich
igan College of Mining and Tech
nology here. He says traces are
still preserved in the hardest rocks.
This old sea beach is on q low,
rocky point near the Marquette
branch state prison.
Professor Seaman explains that
the ancient sea deposited consider
able sand, salt and iron compounds
as it advanced over the land. This
iron formation stretched over north
ern Michigan, Wisconsin and Mime
sofa and TO the Arctic ocean on
each side of Hudson bay. The iron
ore produced in the Lake Superior
region is from this formation.
Professor Seaman also declares
that near Champion there was at
one time one of the largest and
most active volcanoes in the world.
1t may be seen from the highway as
a low hill on the east of Lake Mich
igamme.
The hills south of Marquette are
almost entirely composed of ancient
sea bottoms, according to Professor
