to what money is being used for the
purchasing of cigarets, gasoline,
shotgun shells, spats, chewing gum,
candy, ties and other such commodi-
ties.
Criticism Justified
"Ever since the wood cutting pro-
ject has been adopted in Redwood
county, orders on merchants for
amounts of money due choppers
have been issued.
"All able bodied unemployed men
have paid for help the county fur
nished them by cutting wood. About
two-fifths of the wood has been dis
posed of and perhaps three-fifths is
still on hand, in perfect condition
for fall and winter use.
"The comment about the furr ssh
ing of non-essentials Mr.. Johnson
listed is certainly justified and we
admit carelessness in the supervi-
sion of purchases made by choppers.
Our idea was that they earned the
money and would know how to spend
it wisely. -.s.f
However, we learn by experience
that they do not and we shall limit
their earnings and orders to the
amount of ten cents per individual,
per day, enabling us to keep better
tab on how and where they spend it
and give them less to spend"

Warns Against
Rabbit Disease

A warming is issued by the Minnesota
Division of Game and Fish to hunters
who are urged to exercise extreme
caution when handling rabbits so that
the dread disease, tularemia, may not
be contracted. Already score or more
of cases have been reported and for
tunately no fatalities have resulted to
date.
Since a majority of the tularemia
cases in this state have been trace
able to the dressing Of rabbits after
the disease was isolated in Minnesota
in 1926, it is advised that all persons
wear rubber gloves while skinning,
cleaning and preparing rabbits for
food
Tularemia is disease among rabbits
that is infectious to humans and some
times causes death. Hunters are
warned to be careful in shooting rabbits
that seem to lack animation as they
may be infected. The disease is trans
mitted to humans only in the process
of skinning and cleaning infected ami
mails, scientists assert. Other means of
transmitting the disease. is through
wood tick bites and from the skinning
of muskrats, and other wild animals of
certain species.
Hunters who have cuts or bruises on
their hands should take extra pre-
cautions against contracting this dis
disease.

November Lake Superior
Iron Ore Consumption.

The consumption of Lake Superior
iron ore during the month of November
amounted to 1,311,212 gross tons
against 1,451 liza tons in October, de-
crease of 1892 tons, asys Skilling's
Mining Review. In November, 1890,
consumption of Lake Superior iron ore
totaled 2,639.8 gross tons.
On December l, there was on hand
at furnaces 1915, 1923 gross tons of

before the supply at docks and furnaces
amounted to 41,226,806 gross tons.
There were So furnaces in blast on
the last day of November out of 245

Advertising Men
Will Visit Here,

Between twelve and fifteen adver-
Using men representing many of the
noted advertising concerns of the
country from Rockford and Chicago
Illinois, and the Twin Cities, have ar
ranged for spending week or more
at the Basswaad Lodge on Eastwood
Lake.
The arrangements are for visit at
the Lodge between January 3rd and
18th, providing the weather turns a
little more wintery. At present, and
with the mild weather we have had for
the beginning of winter, no ice of any
consequence has formed on the lakes
and travel is precarious.
The advertising men are looking for
winter and trips over the lakes to
points of interest with Eastwood Lodge
as their base. Up to the present winter
has failed to put in its appearance in
this Playground of a Nation" section
and our residents are wondering why il
is necessary to go to California OF
Florida.

GAME WARDENS
BUSY PEOPLE
State Department Gives a Few
Figures on Wardens, Game
and Fish.

Without doubt most Minnesota citi-
zens have an idea that a game
warden has the softest kind of snap
but such is not the case as indicated
by figures prepared from records by the
Division of Game and Fish. The fact
of the matter is that game wardens
are the busiest kind of persons, with
no regular working hours, being sub
ject to call at any hour of the day
or night.
There are total of 84,286 square
miles of land and water in Minnesota
which translated into acres gives the
figure of 53,943,379. OF this amount
there are 5,637 square miles OF water or
3,6O7 $50 acres, the remainder of the
area being land.
Each of Minnesota's ITO game war
dens have an average of 468 square
miles or 299, 685 acres, to cover in their
daily grind of enforcing game and fish
laws, with time for educational &C.
tivitieS and that spent in court prose-
cutting cases, thrown in for good
measure.
An accurate check is kept on each
warden's daily activity.
A comparative statement of game
warden's arrests for the months of
october 1880 and October 1881, in
dictate that activities in game law
enforcement is on the gain in Mime
sofa. Although an increase of 79I
wardens was made in the enforcement
personnel, the percentage of arrests
still shows marked gain this year
over like period for year ago.
For the month of October 1880, al
total of 434 arrests were made. During
the month of October 1881, $50 arrests
were reported and delayed reports will
increase this number to over 600I
arrests.
The largest increase is shown inl
arrests because of pheasant hunting
violations with 204 arrests for this
offense in the October just passed as
compared to only SO in October of last
year. Another marked gain is in
Dictated in the offense of having loaded
guns set up in motor vehicles. This
infraction of Minnesotas game laws
brought 123 sportsmen into difficulties
during October last while the same
month year ago brought about AL
arrests on similar charge.
Sportsmen's organizations throughout
the state and individuals interested inl
the protection of Minnesota's wild life
voice hearty approval at this augmented
activity on the part of the states game
warden staff.

"PaInsy Days" With
Eddie Cantor at Eco.

Better than "Whoopee" was the YER
dict of a preview audience on Eddie
Contor's new picture, "Palmy Days"
Samuel Goldwyn, producer, and Eddie
Sutherland, director, have turned out
a show which has just about the right
proportions of story, comedy and music.
The splendid supporting cast, headed
by limber-legged Charlotte Greenwood,
aids Cantor to put over a world of
typical Cantoresque antics, most of
which take place in bakery operated
by chorus of girls who out Ziegfeld
the best set of Follies girls for pulchri-
tude and dancing talent.
Cantor, Morris Ryskind and David
Freedman did the book with Harry
Askt and Con Conrad on the music.
Busby Berkeley and the girls do the best
dance ensembles ever seen on the
screen. 1t looks like this ought to help
President Hoover relieve any one of
the feeling Of depression. "Palmy
Days" will be at the Eco days start
ing Sunday, January 3.

LEGION POSTS
BUSY Year
A Few Facts as to the Business
of the American Legion
and Auxiliary.

, Minnesota has 460 American Legion
posts and 401 Legion Auxiliary units
with combined membership of $4,000
Minnesota American Legion posts
have erected over 1000 signs at the
entrances to their home towns. Each
sign asks motorists to Protect Our
Children"
Many American Legion posts of Min
nesota have helped establish airports
and scores have painted the home
town name in large letters on top OF
big buildings to guide aviators.
Minnesota Legion posts have 46C
service officers who annually go to
school to learn the latest methods OF
helping their disabled comrades.
Working with the United States Vet
GRAMS Bureau, Minnesota Legion posts
are collecting evidence on hitherto dis
approved claims of sick and disabled
service men, thus bringing thousands
of additional dollars to their buddies
and dependents.
In two months, 70 Minnesota Legion
posts organized local school police
patrols. More are being formed, in Co
operation with the State Highway De-
partment.
In each state legislature and at Wash
ington, D. c., the Legion maintains q
constant watch on legislation that might
effect the disabled and their Deepen
dents.
The American Legion Auxiliary Of
Minnesota employs many partially dis
abled veterans to make articles which
are sold by posts and units throughout
the state.
Minnesota Legion posts are always on
the watch for opportunities to do things
which will benefit their respective COM
munities.
Minnesota Legion posts are con-
Quoting q, campaign to acquaint all
citizens with the proper way to display
the American flag on various occasions

with about 5000 boys participating in
the play.

Christmas Trees
Past, Present, Future.

Cut from the proper location, the
evergreen serves its highest purpose as
a Christmas tree, in the Judgment of
E. w. Tinker, Uncle Sans Chief For
ester in the Lake States, and National
Foresters are taking seriously the
necessity of a program that will put
a Christmas tree in every home, every
year. No other trees add half SO much
to human happiness as the fragrant fir,
the symmetrical spruce, or the arom-
attic balsam, symbolizing the birth of
the Christ-idea, and beginning new
calendar
Mother nature has Always been a
mass producer. Foresters tell us that
only about one tree in fifty struggles
up into the sunlight to become full
grown tree-perhaps Christmas tree,
a box to hold it in the chimney corner
or the boxes to hold the gifts to hang
upon it.
1t is more or less widespread belief
among ardent cnservationists that the
cutting and use of Christmas trees Is
a great waste. When trees are cut to
oA121l Ouo q tiA4Sh St<S1lN, tA4S 4OkCSt
growth is improved The forest presents
a human parallel. Trees do not like
to be crowded. The surviving trees
one finds are only "the fittest." Trees
that lag behind in growth die, fall to
the ground and become a menace, fire,
insect and fungi hazard.
The forests of the Lake States Region
are particularly Christmas tree minded.
In addition to balsam growing along
the edge of the swamps, it has the
black spruce in various stages of
growth. The use of the tops of the
black spruce for Christmas trees is
part of the forest management plan.
The remainder of the tree is used in
making wood pulp, which in time comes
back to the Christmas tree, in books,
calendars, cards, tinsel, tops, and toys,
even the sheer synthetic stockings for
sister and mother, and the rayon sox
and ties for dad and junior.
Three thousand years before the
birth of Jesus we hear of tree taking
part in festivities in December. These
were the palm trees of Egypt which put
out leaf each month, and the tree
with its twelve leaves was looked upon
as the symbol of the completed tree.
So the palm tree is thought to be the
ancestor of the Christmas tree of today.

The Oliver Iron Mining Co., COM
pleted electrifcation Of its Pioneer "B"
shaft at Ely. A new engine house was
built from which the hoist ropes led
at about right angles to the center line
of the shaft, necessitating angle sheaves
to carry the rope around the corner.
The rope crosses the railroad tracks
between the engine house and shaft.
A hoist was transferred from the COM
pany's Norrie mine on the Gogebic
range for use at the Pioneer "B" shaft.
Air is supplied from Pioneer "a" shaft.
which had been previously electrified.
The Oliver Iron Mining Co., installed
two new plunger pumps at $50 6. p. m.
capacity underground in its Sibley
mine.
A new source. of water supply for Ely
was tapped during the summer. The
old supply had been taken from Long
Lake north of the city but had become
infested with vegetable matter to such
an extent that it was unfit for con-
tinued use. The new supply Of water
is obtained from Burnside Lake about
S miles away. It is carried in 14-snch
steel pipes, installed at a cost of about
$270,0O0.
The water supply spoken Of in the
last paragraph is being installed at
present and probably will be utilized
next year. Work is going along finely
with the installation of the pipe line
to BURNSIDE. New treating plants and
settling tanks will be built after the
line is complete, work on which win
probably begin during the coming year
it being the aim of the Council to build
this plant on the pay-as-you-go system.
