war ON HOPPERS.
IS DECLARED
Now is the Time to Kill Grass
hoppers Before They Reach
the Flying Stage.

About 400 of the 500 sacks of poisoned
grasshopper bait received here have
been distributed to local residents and
farmers of this vicinity in the hope that
the hoppers will be killed before they
reach the flying stage according to j
W. Herranen, in charge of the distribu-
ton of the bait being furnished free
by st. Louis county.
In all parts of this district farmers
are spreading poison bait on the fields
where the hoppers have laid their eggs
and the young Matched that have now
developed almost to the flying stage
Young grasshoppers are not flying
yet" Mr.. Herranen said, "but now is
the time to deal the death blow. Resi-
dents of the city with lawns and garden
tracts are cooperating with the farmers
in the campaign against the menace
and thus far the situation is well in
hand. just now when the young hop
pers are crawling through the grass is
an ideal time to kill them with the
poisoned bait
In other parts of the county, township
chairmen and assisting committees are
directing distribution of the poison.
Five carloads of bait in this county is
providing ammunition" in the war
against the pests.

SUPERIOR ADDS
21,335 ACRES
Uncle Sans Minnesota Forests
Share In Largest Land Deal
of the Region.

The Superior and Chippewa National
Forests and the Mesaba Purchase Unit
will be enlarged by nearly $1,000 acres
as result of the largest national-forest
land deal ever approved in the history
of the North Central Region amount
ing to 100000 acres and involving the
payment of 1898 ,289 to owners in the
Lake States and in the new units in
Missouri and Illinois, Regional Forester
E. w. Tinker announced in connection
with the June % meeting of the Ma
tional Reservation Commission. "This
brings the total land for the Region
acquired to date under the acquisition
program to nearly three million acres, /"
he added.
''This means that $114,500 will be paid
by the Government owners in Mime
sofa, and the land will be placed under
production. On the Chippewa 143
owners will receive SCI ,249 for 81, 324
acres; SO owners on the Superior will
receive SAG, 485 for q, 1886 acres; and
26 owners on the Mesaba will receive
$6,743 for 1889 acres. National forest
lands in Minnesota now total 1,374, 600
acres in contrast to a little over one
million in 1929.
In addition to bringing these forests
up to their full productivity of wood
crops, the recreational and wild life
resources are being developed in plan
wise fashion. Approximately 1900 square
miles of the Superior forest have been
dedicated as a Primitive Area" for
public recreation, within which road
construction and other forms of de-
velopment are held to the absolute
minimum essential to proper protection
and management. The Chippewa is
equipped to carry on every phase of re-
forestation, from collection of cones and
extraction of seeds to the final planting
of the seedlings on denuded areas.
There are approximately 1900 CCC
enrollees in % camps within the boun-
diaries of these areas" Mr.. Tinker con-
Guided, 'at wholesome work of forest
regeneration, mployment that appeals
to youth"

JULY FOURTH
Celebrated
Good Music, Fine Parade, Ball
Game, Sports and Dance
Compose Program.

A rain in the early morning Of
Wednesday, July 4th, laid the dust anc
dampened things up to preclude the
possibility of fires through the indis-
criminate shooting of firecrackers and
other fireworks. The enthusiasm OF
those who gathered to help celebrate
tie natal day was not dampened, how
ever, and fine celebration resulted.
The dull clouds gave way to sun
shine in the late afternoon and the
entire program as arranged by the
American Legion took place without the
omission of single feature It looked
rather bad for the parade, but after a
short delay this feature got under way
The parade left the Community
Center and after traversing the prin-
cipal streets of the city also wound
up at the starting point where the
prizes were awarded. Prizes had been
hung UP for the best calithumpian
group; best calithumpian couples and
singles; decorated doll buggies; decor
ated bicycles. In addition to these
main prizes, each and every one of the
children in the parade received a small
cash prize. It is estimated there were
1000 in the parade.
Sports events took place on the
avenue fronting the Community Center
There were running races for boys and
girls; bicycle races for girls and boys
and other sports. The prize winners
were not announced although we
noticed that the W. P. Wolff twins re-
ceived one of the larger prizes as did
also the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
A. Nyberg for decorated doll buggy;
the faWn in cage was awarded a prize
and. several others were exhibiting
checks showing they were winners of
some sort.
The Ely Community Band kept the
air filled with the best kind of music
and the lunch, ice cream, balloon and
blanket stands did a rushing business.
Considering the jam of people on the
streets, not an accident was recorded to
mar the spirit of the day.
The ball game at Athletic Park at
2:30 drew an immense throng who en-
ioyed the game judging by the en-
thusiasm over particular plays dis
played. The Ely Arrowheads were vic
tors over the Peoples Brewing Co. team
of Duluth on an to score. The
game was closely contested and neither
side had much to brag about over their
adversaries.
The days festivities wound up at the
Washington Auditorium where the an
nual novelty dance took place to ex-
cellent music furnished by Dusty's
Rhythm Rougies.
It was good celebration and worthy
of the large attendance it enjoyed.
Many visitors from the resorts in the
vicinity participated in the celebration.

Death ended the career of
Madame Currie, world famous
scientist in France on July A..
Madame Currie discovered ra-
dunn, a boon to the medical
profession and her discovery
was also the cause of her death.
Physicians said that radium
rays had accumulated in her
system and injured the organs
producing red corpuscles caus-
ing pernicious anemia. Death
takes a toll of worthwhile dis
coverers in science, far greater
than in any other branch of
research and industry but al
ways leaving behind valuable
knowledge to the world. She
was twice winner of the Nobel
prize in chemistry and was the
only woman ever elected to the
French Academy of Sciences.

APPEAL FILED
BY PORTHAN
Improper Count Charged by J.
E. Porthan Who Lost Nom
nation by "a Votes.

John E. Porthan of this city, who lost
the nomination for Fourth district
commissionership by "a votes in the
recent primaries, Friday filed an appeal
in district court against the nomination
of Joseph Veranth, also of this city.
Porthan, according to the findings of
the official canvassing board, received
1877 votes while 821 were cast for Yer
anth. Martin Gunderson of Tower led
the list of thirteen candidates with a
total of 1902.
In the appeal Porthan alleges that
his vote would have been larger than
Veranth's had it not been for improper
counting by the canvasSing board and
the election judges, constables and
clerks in the various precincts of the
district.
The appeal also alleges that several
legal votes cast, for Porthan were not
legally counted and that 10 more votes
IN each of the precincts would have
gone to his credit had the ballots been
properly caavaSSed.
The next step in the procedure to gain
recount of votes, under the law, is for
Porthan to petition the court for an
inspection of the ballots. When this is
done then board of three is set up by
the contestants to go over the ballots
under the S1IOerviSior1 IF WaJtar Ro-,za,,
county auditor. If sufficient errors are
found to alter the result of the primary
election, the case is presented in court
and the winner determined.

WORK T0sTART
ON HUGE MAP
Mammoth Air Map, 13Rx24
Feet, to be Made of the
Superior Forest.

Work on mammoth map to be
assembled of aerial photographs show
ing the topography of the Superior
National Forest, will be started at once
in this city, according to John Valen-
tine, local forest ranger.
r. U. Harmon, forest supervisor, was
in the city the latter part of the week
looking over buildings in the hope of
finding suitable quarters where the
work can be carried on until completed
which is estimated will take several
months.
The small aerial photographs, under
stood to cover about 2 square miles
each, will be assembled on huge draw
ing board, Is feet by "a feet. Experts
from Washington, D. c., will be brought
here to do the work which requires
absolute exactness and skill to match
the small pictures somewhat on the
order of jigg-saw puzzle. When COM
pleted the result will be an exact pic
ture OF the surface of the Superior Ma
tional Forest, including its relief, the
positions of its streams, lakes, roads etc.
The photographs are being taken on
contract by the Standard Air Service
of Hackensack, N. j. The plane has
been at the local airport for the past
five weeks and each day, weather per-
mitting, goes up with the photographer,
C. H. Dean, to take pictures of some
portion of the forest The pictures are
taken with an aerial camera at an
elevation of 1900 feet. G. j. De-
Garmo, Jr., of HackenSack, is pilot of
the plane
The pictures are developed and
marked for tapping by the photo
grapher at a temporary laboratory
established in the Veranth hotel build
ing on Central Avenue. One of the
pictures, view of the City of Ely with
Shagawa, Little Long and BURNSIDE
lakes, was printed in the gravure Sec
ton of Sundays Duluth News Tribune
and covered with legibility the large

His latest Interpretation of the
