Knew Timber Policy
BY JOHN sroN. PARDEE

holdings of timber or preserve it for
future USE" l.
There was already a forestry board
in existence then, and Gen. c.. G. An
drews had begun his interchangeable
preaching of permanent forest re-
serves. Dunn argued that if the tim
Der was in solid block there was a
good deal to be said for the perma-
nent policy. But as it was scattered
all over the northern half of the state
it would be impracticable if not i'm
possible. ''The state is generally the
last one to dispose of it's timber and
then only when the tracts are sur
rounded by slashings" with the &C
companying danger of fire.
Furthermore, when the operators in
that vicinity pulled out there would
be no possible market; nobody could
build logging road to take out a few
hundred thousand.
IverSon argued in 1903 at length
for permanent policy. BY that time
the possibilities of continuous yield
were more apparent, and economic
changes were in evidence.
Preus, auditor in 1918, carried it a
step further. Estate lands and tim

We had an opportunity to visit the
Community Center at Ely, on the
Fourth and couldn't help but appre-
ciate the value of such a place to a
city. 1t seems that Ely built a new
school house and the old one remained
on the hands Of the school board. In
stead Of leaving it stand to become a
wreck, 1t was sold by the board to the
city, for a consideration of one dollar,
and some money spent to fit it for
community purposes. Here the Amer
lean Legion has commodious quarters,
the Community Band had a suitable
place to keep their instruments and
hold practice. There were recreation
rooms for the young men and women,
parlors for the women where various
organizations could meet; a finely
equipped kitchen and dining room,
baths and restrooms. In fact we were
informed that accommodations there
were reserved month or more in ad-
vance. 1t was the gathering center of
the people and we heard numerous ex-
preSsions that it was strange how the
town could get along without it be-
fore it was established.
1t was fine thing and the thought
occurred to us that the old court house
which has been an eyesore to the city.
would make an ideal community CEN
ter for Brainerd, in the days to come,
when its use as an emergency school
building is over. Brainerd needs some
thing of the kind and here is the OPP
portunity and the -Brainerd
Tribune.

THE RECKLESS DRIVER.

There is no closed season on dumb
bells. They get popped off everywhere
and all the time. Last year 1853 auto
mobiles ran into trains on one rail-
way system. One went "kersmash''
into the f1fty-first car of long freight
train. If that isn't dumb-bell driving
what Is?
This has nothing to do with those
who tried to beat the train at the
crossing and got hit One hundred
sixty-eight just went head on against
a train that was already at the cross
Ing. Other railroads have the same
story to tell. There were $3.50 grade
crossing accidents last year on all rail-
roads, with 2,371 killed and 6,613 in
jured.
1t shows one of two things, maybe
both. Either the drivers are asleep.
SO to speak, at the wheel, or they are
driving without proper brake control
OF their cars. Both conditions make
them highway menace. Such cars
usually carry others. Good brakes,
good lights and good driving are es-
sential to the safety of the highways.

future needs of the people OF Minne-
Sota."
The auditor was not the only per-
son in the state to pay attention to
the subject, but his are the principal
utterances-he is the custodian of
state lands and shares with the legis-
lature the responsibility for forming
policies.
Twelve years after the adoption of
the amendment, the state had set
apart all the state lands in the boun-
diaries of the Minnesota National
Forest and all the state lands in the
bounds of the Superior National
Forest as permanent forest reserves
to be managed, as the amendment di-
reefs and as the legislature may pro-
vide, on forestry principles.
The working out of the policies to
carry out the purpose of the amend
ment is now the business before the
people. So far the state has been
content to sell the timber, tuck away
the proceeds, give partial fire protec-
| ton and trust to nature for the rest
State contracts still stipulate clean
cutting down to sizes too small to pay
the logger for his work, which means
denudation of the cutover lands.
The new policies will determine to
large degree what part of the $780,
600, 900 in sight for the trust funds
shall come from the state forests.

u.s. all proof papers nicely written up,
and all we had to do was sign them;
then sign deed to the land we had
just acquired title to a minute be-
fore. Each of us was handed 1925.
The whole business of proving up the
ten claims was completed, as recall,
in less than an hour, quick work it was,
and only exceeded by our record made
in building cabins, six months before,
and away all ten of us went, happy
and well satisfied.
The land I proved up on was the
SWA of Section 81, Township 81,
Range Is, 160 acres. The location of
it is on Soudan Hill at Tower, and
my understanding is that much iron
ore has been taken from 1t. Some OF
the other claims taken that time, no
doubt, were equally valuable. for iron
ore.
Since that first trip so long ago, ]
have many times been to Soudan Hill,
which is the location of the Tower
mines at Tower, and in the intervening
years have learned considerable abort
iron mines, and iron geology.
I viii say that iron ore of the best
quality in the whole world has been
steadily mined and shipped from that
deposit on Soudan Hill, for now, al
most IS years, and no signs of deple-
ton, and it is my belief that genera
tons of men will come and go, before
the deposit is finally exhausted. The
Tower mines and other iron ore de-
poSits on the Vermilion, will still be
sending forth to commerce, the cream
of all iron ore when the Mesaba has
long since been exhausted and history
will tell the fisherman from Kansas or
Nebraska, who will go to the now open
pits on the Mesaba, but lakes then,
that away back in generations past,
iron ore was mined where the lakes
will then be. The ore being exhausted
the great excavations left filled with
water, making lakes.
I doubt not that time will write
these predictions, true history reader
the Vermilion iron range contains the
greatest of all iron ore deposits, and
| when the steam and electric shovel
of the MeSaba has passed, and it will
pass, then the Vermilion comes into
| its own

Every Girl Scout in Ely who has
registered for camp is packing her
duffle bag and shining up her Girl
Scout Pin!
The first week is practically filled
now and the second week is very near
the maximum number, so if you still
want to go to camp, sign up with
Mrs, Byron Carlson at once. She
lives on Pattison street, across from
the ball park.
All the scouts going to camp have
many special treats in store for them.
We hope that all parents and other
folks interested in this valuable pro-
gram for their girls will favor us with
their appearance on visiting day, which
is to be held Sunday of each encamp-
ment from P. M. to z.
Physical examinations are being
held with the kind help of the doctors
at the Shipman Hospital.
The staff consists of Miss Lee Ander-
son, camp chief, Mrs. Chas. Ziering
captain, assistant and First Alder
Miss Sylvia Walker of Duluth, Life
saver, Mrs. Maggie Kolstad, camp
manager, Miss Grace Anderson ballet
and song helper.
Cars leave the Community Center
at 900 A. M. Tuesday, July "a. All
scouts registered pay the rest of their
fee at that time.
Ways of attending church will be
provided for all Girl Scouts who wish
to come in to Ely on Sunday mornings.
Girl Scouts services will be held at
camp also.

Up to now, the states timber policy
has been very simple. Sell the stump
age for the best price to be had, put
the proceeds in the trust funds, then
sell the cutover land to settlers. At
first, when pine stumpage had no mar
ket value, it was thought very clever
to get anything at all for it; later the
sales were more carefully handled
But all the time the state was looking
only at the standing timber with no
reckoning of the new growth, and that
was natural.
At first also, the land was supposed
to be worthless after the timber was
removed. It did not occur to anybody
there would be a second crop except
after years and years. Later, it was
taken for granted that every acre
could be sold and made into farms.
And that was not exactly correct.
There are probably eight or ten mil
lion acres in northern Minnesota that
will raise trees or do nothing for the
next hundred years at least, and
something like million acres of that
is state land.
In better understanding, the land
that raised one crop of trees will raise

:: SOME OLD Time HISTORY ::
(By EDW. LYNCH)

The vermillion Trail was cut out and
bridges built by the U. s. Government
along about 1867 or 68. When the
writer first saw 1t, most of the route
passed through virgin forest, much of
the timber, beautiful white and Nor
way pine. No attempt at road build
ing. 1t was simply trail cut through
the forest. Could not be used for haul
ing supplies or travelling teams over,
only in the winter when the ground
was frozen. The trail did not termin-
ate where Tower now is, as now gen.
orally supposed, but close to where the
waters of Pike River flow into Pike
Bay. There were no white people liv-
ing along the trail, or on either of
the Iron Ranges at that time, 1880.
Mesaba Range was mostly vast for
est, and at that time not thought of
for iron ore. All around Vermilion
Lake was beautifully green. Much of
the shore lines a splendid growth of
pine timber, great trees growing down
to the waters edge.
NOW, TO commune the story where
left off in former letter. The day
after reaching Duluth from the Lake,
Mckinley, whom have mentioned in
a former letter, came to us and said,
Nov, boys you are all fixed up at the
land office. You have built good
cabins on your claims, and you will
make proof December goth, SO all of
you be back here on that date" and we
vent our way
We had not been to the land office
to file our claims, that was all safely
attended to by someone unknown to
us, while we were on the trail to Yer
million Lake. 1t was easy to make
proof on Government land and &C
quire title them days, so much so, that
it was mostly foolishness to bother
going to the u. S. Land office. Some
other fellow could do that for you if
you did not choose to go there your
self. The morning of the goth of De-
cember, our day to prove up and get
title, four of us showed up at Nc
Kinley's office. and were told that the
other six, of the ten who took claims
with us, would be in from Pine City,
Minnesota that evening, and for us to
come up to the land office about 9 P.
M. We were there, all of us, promptly
on time. Everything was arranged for

dren of Minnesota, deserve your most

of reforestation, soil survey, study of
the peat deposits and balanced
policy.
For some. years the conservation
movement, the activities of the old
forestry board and the agitation for
a department of public domain oc-
cupied public attention. In 1914, the
constitutional amendment for perma-
nent forest reserves was adopted, of
which Iverson said, Through this
amendment we may confidently hope
to lay the foundation for a perpetual
supply of all kinds Of timber for the

REPORT ON WATER SUPPLY
OF ELY, MINNESOTA.

Conclusion of the report of the Min
nesota Department of Health covering
an investigation of the municipal wa
ter supply made on June 20, 1923.
The field survey shows conditions
which are satisfactory from a sanitary
point of view, and in the analytical re-
suits indications of contamination were
not found in the treated water on this
date. This water supply is considered
safe for public consumption with the
usual reservations as stated on the at

For the last twenty years the state
has been giving good deal of thought
to the perpetual forest.
One Of the earliest discussions was
by Dunn in 1900. "There is room for
honest difference of opinion as to the
best policy to pursue" he said,
whether to dispose Of the states
