DISTRICT FORESTER FEELS
THANKFUL TO NEWSPAPERS

E. W. Tinker, district forester of Mil
waukee, in thanking the newspapers
for the kind words spoken for his de-
partment during the past few weeks,
writes as follows:
It has taken much painstaking eff
fort and vast amount of careful
within the Superior National forest in
such manner that we could be as.
Sured a permanent life for the in
dustrieS established and better and
more valuable forest as time goes on
and as improvement cuttings are made
AS a matter of fact, the cutting op-
erationS referred to will in a large ex-
tent be in the nature of improvement
cuttings and we hope to develop great
er production of more valuable species
when the next cut is made
4 1T has taken long time to get
public appreciation of what sustained
yield, as we foresters call it, means
and the action in individual instances
of a forward looking press has con-
tributed to a large extent to the gen.
eral intelligent attitude that the public
now takes toward operations of this
kind. Incidentally, since directly or in
directly $.35 out of every dollar that
win come in from this sale goes back
to the counties within which the for
est is located and since the revenue
should be permanent and increasing,
it is with feeling of great salts
faction that we have been able to
bring our plans of initiating this op-

TOURIST BUSINESS
LEFT MUCH MONEY

The outstanding feature of the
tourist business in the Minnesota Ar
rowhead country for the 1929 season
was the higher standard of living"
in point of cars and expenditures of
the tourists, according to the annual
tourist report of the Arrowhead as
sociation issued by Geo. A. Perham,
executive secretary, and distributed at
the recent annual meeting in Duluth.
Resort owners noticed that their
guests stayed a longer time and we're
generally looking for better accom-
odations than in the past. Patron
age of tourist camps dropped off to
an appreciable extent.
Since the report was issued, Mr..
Perham has estimated that not less
than five million dollars were spent
by tourists in the Arrowhead this
year He has increased his estimate
of number Of tourists from $4,000
which was the same as the 1923 es-
innate to 25O,000 and estimating that
each person spent $4,000 while in the
area obtained the figure of five mil
lion dollars.
A committee on publicity to sup
ervise the preparation of printed
matter to carry on the tourist cam
paign in 1880 has just been ap-
pointed, the personnel being as fol-
lows:
Roy Quigley, Hibbing; Gus c. Carl
son, Tower; w. A. Fisher, Virginia;
M. B. Elson, Gilbert; Lloyd James,
Two Harbors; M. I. Stewart, r. D.
Handy, Chas. S. Haig, W. H. Bergen
and Georg Welles, ST. of Duluth. DR..
H. c. Newgord is the Ely member Of
the committee.

Grief over the failure of his in
valid daughter to respond to medical
science was advanced as a motive for
the suicide some time Sunday of John
A. Barton, So, president of one of Two
Harbors leading banks, and the muir
der of the daughter, Beatrice, 19.
The bodies of the two were dis
covered Monday morning slumped
over in the rear seat of Barton's car,
which had been parked on a side road
about a mile from the city. The two
had been missing from the family
home since Sunday noon when Barton,
who was much devoted to the invalid
girl, had taken her for an automo-
bile ride. ....-- .-
Failure of MIR. Barton and Beatrice
to return for dinner caused consid-
cradle anxiety in the household after
both Mrs. Barton and her two younger
daughters, Audrey and Isabelle, had
been back from church services for
some time. A search was instituted
which was concluded Monday morning
when John Hanson, night patrolman
at Two Harbors, discovered the bodies
in the Barton automobile parked on
the Waldo road.

DEAD FORESTS WILL v
FOLLOW POWER DAMS"

In second of series of articles
being published in "The Minnesota
Legionaire," Stafford King of st. Paul,
state Legion conservation chairman,
after picturing the vacation paradise
existing along the international border
declares that if power interests are al
lowed to dam the Rainy Lake region,
the spreading waters will leave in
their wake thousands of acres of dead
forests. -
He cites what has happened along
the Siene River in Canada, where a
vast territory formerly rivaling north
ern MinneSota's timberlands, presents
only thousands of dead trees, ''monu-
ments to this thing called power y
while for miles there is not living
plant, nor evidence of wild life.
NThe forest stands dark, desolate,
dead and damned. Game finds no
shelter and even fish cannot live in
water made acidy by rot and decay.
The Legion feels that Minnesota s
comparatively small remnant of un-
exploited timberland should be saved
from this fate" chairman King con-
cludes.

PROPOSED CALENDAR CHANGE
WOULD GIVE EXTRA HOLIDAY

II the present agitation to make the
calendar year consist of Is equal 28-
day months is successful, we may all
find ourselves with an extra holiday on
our hands. The extra day, the last
one. of the year, would be holiday
called year day" In leap years an
other holiday called 'leap day. would
be inserted in midsummer.
Prof c. F. Marvin, Chief of the
Weather Bureau of the United States
proposal to make the calendar fixed
and perpetual by giving nonweekday
names to year day" and "leap day"
is believed by a number of students
who have investigated the history of
the calendar to be in reality an effort
to follow the ancient Mosaic plan to
begin every year on the same day Of
the week
Fo this purpose, he explains, the
day we now call Pentecost was COM
bined by Moses with the preceding
day as one prolonged Sabbath day, in
commemoration of the great events of
the Exodus which occurred when the
children of Israel were before Mount
Sinai and received the Commandments
of the Lord According to this view
Moses set up the first perpetual"
calendar in history, each year begin
ming on the same week day, at or near
the vernal equinox The first five
months contained 80 days each, the
sixth month had 33 days, and the first
half year 183 days The second half
year, similar to the first, began near
the autumnal equinox.
