CENSUS TAKERS
ON THE job
WORK WAS BEGUN WEDNESDAY
MORNING ON THE TAKING OF
THE CENSUS IN ELY AS WELL
AS IN OTHER CITIES OF THE
UNITED STATES ELY POPU-
LATION ESTIMATED AT 5000.

Wednesday, morning five census
enumeratorS began the work of taking
the census in Ely The enumerators
on the job are Mrs. Anna Leino, John
BallaS, Uno Alfalfa, William Martel,
and Andrew Harri
AS the enumerators are not given
too much time in which to complete
the count, the citizens should assist
them in every possible manner to Sc
cure a correct count besides actual
facts regarding the employment sit
uation throughout the entire nation.
To get at actual conditions a number
of questions will be asked These
questions may perhaps be somewhat
personal in nature but you will be
doing the country favor by answering
them to the best of your ability.
Your answers will be held strictly
confidential
The results of the census will not
become public for some time or as
fast as the tabulators at Washington
can finish their job. AS this is not
an ordinary census it is expected to
take a little more than the bare
enumeration of the population The
enumerators are paid by the name and
in order to get anything for their
work will have to keep moving along.
Don't keep them standing around by
asking questions. They will do that
and it is your duty to answer them as
truthfully as possible.

CHICKEN RANCHES
BECOMING POPULAR
ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL
CHICKEN FARMS IN THIS VIC
UNITY is THE ONE BEING CON-
QUOTED BY JOHN APOSTLE OF
THE CHOCOLATE SHOP.

visit to the chicken ranch being
conducted by John Apostle of the
Chocolate Shop will prove of much
interest to anyone interested in this
branch of farming. Two broods Of
700 each have so far been Matched by
the hot water incubator at the farm
and two healthy looking broods have
resulted. One of the broodS is as vet
in the brooder while the other is in
room equipped with a heater in one
OF the buildings on the farm. The
incubator, which has a capacity of
LOO eggs, was filled with another
setting OF eggs this week. It is pro-
posed to hatch about 5000 chicks this
spring. The loss in broods already
Matched has been kept down to q
minimum by the constant attention
and care given the baby chicks by
John PauloS, Emor EllefSon and Biagio
Benda who are in charge
The hatchery is making speciality
OF white leghorns and eggs for hatch
ing were laid by the flock of 300 hens
wintered over and which flock has
been producing up to rs per cent all
winter. Some eggs also were secured
from the Victor Wirta chicken ranch
at EmbaraSS, who also is making a
speciality of the popular white leghorn
brand. AS soon as the chickens are
large enough for use in furnishing
succulent frys at the Chocolate Shop,
the culling will take place and all the
cockerels taken from the flock It Is
claimed that over half of the baby
chicks Matched are ROSTERS and the
culling process over the several hatch
ings four weeks apart will furnish frys
for the summer months as wanted.
The hatchery of Mr.. Apostle on the
old Wilmunen farm on the Birch Lake
road after leaving Highway No. 81, is
not the only one in this section as
there are about dozen farmers who
are maintaining large focks which are
producing eggs which command a
ready market in this city at the high
est market prices owing to their
guaranteed freshness.

ED. JONES TELLS ROTARIANS
HOW ORES ARE GRADED

Ed G. Jones' chemist for the Oliver
Iron Mining Company, told the Rot
airy Club at Wednesdays meeting how
iron ore was graded and the numerous
mixing processes and tests it goes
through before arriving at the smelter
While many of the Rotarians present
have been residents of a mining dis
trict all their lives, the talk by Mr.
Jones was most instructive and
brought out the fact that more oper-
ations than the mining from certain
mines and laboratory test are re-
quired to furnish grade. He told of
how samples for testing are taken and
how ores from the mines are mixed to
furnish the specified iron content in
the bloc shipments to the docks and
later in cargo lots to Lake Erie ports.
The meeting was in charge of the Voc
ational Service committee with Bruce
Strachan as chairman The Swedish
Ladies Aid served a fine dinner. Ed
Bolitho of the "On to Duluth" Con-
ference committee reported on a let
ter received from DR.. Tuohy, pres
ident of the Duluth club telling of the
program arranged for the Conference
on May Is and 16.

the roadsides, it becomes increasingly
evident that the city dump is not being
used as it should be. Along some of
the roads and particularly the Moose
Lake road, leading south from town,
rubbish has been dumped in many
places. Right along the side of the
road are boxes and barrels of bones
chicken feathers, old mattresses, dead
dogs and many other things just as
unsightly. Why this should be done
when the city has provided dump
with dug pits for this express purpose,
is beyond us, particularly when the
road to the dump was kept plowed and
open all winter.
There are number of other things
that we could mention such as dump
ing old automobiles, stoves, tires, ETC.,
but we have gone into enough detail
already. We do solicit, however, the
earnest cooperation of every one in
Ely in keeping our highways clean.

greSS met in December, Congressman
Pittenger introduced bill for the re-
lief of the 1918 Minnesota Forest Fire
Sufferers. His bill was referred to the
Committee on Claims, which con-
siderS hundreds of demands made
against the government. After weeks
of effort, he was able to get this bill
considered ahead of other bills and
the testimony of witnesses is now
being printed for the use of members
of Congress.
Several witnesses appeared for the
fire sufferers. The United States
Railroad Administration appeared be-
fore the Committee in opposition to
the bill and advanced every argument
in an effort to secure an unfavorable
report from the Committee on this
pending measure.
The various sessions of the Com
mittee were full of excitement, Con-
gresham Pittenger taking vigorous
issue with the claims advanced by the
government that the releases executed
by the fire sufferers were binding and
entitled them to no further claim in
Congress.
Congressman Pittenger said, Those
who know the circumstances will admit
that the government practically told
the fire sufferers that they would have
to take what the government wanted
to pay or else try their cases one by
one in the courts. The Supreme Court
of Minnesota held the government was
liable for the loss and I think it only
fair that Congress pay to the fire suf-
ferers the balance of the money to
which they are justly entitled"
1t will be probably be several weeks
before the Committee has an oppor-
tunity to read over the testimony and
make it's report to the members of
Congress. While recognizing the
powerful opposition of the Railroad
Administration, Congressman Pittenger
is hopeful that the Committee will
give favorable consideration to these
claims.

George Lommen of this legislative

Regarding the work of Senator Lom

Senator George Lommen Of Evel-

of Duluth will begin next week the
work of razing the City Hall building
preparatory to beginning the con-
struction of the new building for
which they secured the contract last
week for the sum of $123 ,95700 as can
be seen by looking over the proceed
ings of the City Council in another
part of this issue. In another place
will also be found Reimbursement
for bids for the plumbing and heating.
The bids on this branch of the con-
struction were rejected last week as
being too high. The contract for the
electrical installation was let to the
Vermillion Electric Company of this
city and the Benson Electric Com
pany of Duluth on a joint contract.
To get ready for the contractor on
the city hall work the offices are being
moved this week and the fore part of
next to the Community Center and
other rooms. The City Clerk, City
Treasurer, Assessor and Municipal
Court will be located at the Com
munity Center. The City Engineer
will be in the rooms in the rear of
the James Drug Store formerly oc-
cupied by Oscar Bodin. The City
Chemist will continue in the quarters
he has occupied for the past and will
be protected in addition with the Jail
and the police department in the K.
r. building. The garage building
has been moved to the vacant lot at
the Community Center and will be
occupied by the fire department The
electricians building will be moved on
city property near the water tank.
The contract calls for the completion
of the City Hall Building within 100
