Liquor and gas do not mix. Each
may be in separate container, but still
are bad company. have no sympathy
nor mercy for a drunken auto driver.
The laws governing this type of con-
victed criminal are too lenient. Judges
should inforce the laws to the limit.
The killing of innocent citizens by
drunken drivers should not be per-
mitted. But when is a man drunk?
That should not be the question. A
man who has had only one drink of
liquor cannot have the same judgment
or control that he would have had no
liquor been consumed. can see no
plausible argument of defense. 1t is
dangerous to drive while under the
influence of liquor. 1t seems hard to
get this lesson across to the people.
Drinking and driving are two very
separate operations that have nothing
in common, and they should not be in
dulged in at the same time.

Ishpeming Iron Ore-We saw some
interesting figures the other day-if any
kind of figures can be said to be in
teresting. These figures interested us
because they showed just how heavy the
tax burden upon the American people is.
Not counting the extraordinary emer-
gency expenditures of the federal gov
eminent, made with borrowed money,
which have not yet begun to be Seri-
ously reflected in the demand for taxes,
Uncle Sam is spending just for ordinary
upkeep of the governmental institutions,
including the army and navy and the
payment of expenses arising from past
wars, such as veterans pensions, just
about is million dollars every working
day, or $4,000, 900 a year.
But the federal tax load is not the
heaviest, by any means. States, counties
and municipalities take more than
twice as much in taxes from the citi-
zens. The total annual tax bill of the
American people runs up to Is thousand
millions a year, which comes close to
being $125 year for every man, woman
and child. The average family of four
carries a $500 year tax load Some
pay more, some less, but that is the
average.
These taxes bear on everybody. They
are concealed in the rent bill, the cleo
trio bill, the price of groceries, the cost
of everything for which everybody
spends cent. They take, all told, a
good third of the national income,
which is estimated for 1884 at about
$45, ZOO, 100000.

metals-automobiles and pens,
furnaces and thumb tacks, kit
chen equipment and sporting
goods. Every basic industry is
vitality dependent upon metals
for making and distributing its
products or services. If the
impossible happened, and we
suddenly found ourselves with
out metals tomorrow, life would
have to be carried on in the
neolithic manner. This illus
trates the reason for the i'm
portance that is attached to the
domestic mining industry-and
shows why far-sighted econ
omists are so interested in fair
and reasonable legislation and
tax policies for mining.

Raising Frogs for
Market Purposes

The matter of frog culture has re-
ceived considerable attention Of late and
several northern Minnesota people have
signified their intention Of raising frogs
for market. In answer to the question
What are the possibilities of raising
frogs in this state?" the University
Farm information bureau gives the fol-
lowing answer:
Profitable methods of raising frogs
have not yet been developed for the
northern states. do not know of any
place in the north where successful frog
farming has been carried on, although
some people protect marshy places and
collect frogs which naturally grow there
Frog raising presents many difficult
ties in northern states. Here, 1t takes
2 years for tadpoles, Matched from eggs
to transform into frogs. Then it takes
several years more for the frogs to
reach market size. After changing from
tadpoles it would take frogs or z
years to reach their greatest size.
Through all this period you must feed
both tadpoles and adults. Tadpoles
feed on natural food in water and on
dead animal or plant material, but
adults must be fed on living animals
They are heavy eaters and the problem
of supplying enough food is one of the
biggest. Unless it can be prevented,
frogs will eat frogs, and, in addition,
they must be protected from enemies
such as coons, muskrats, crows and
other birds, turtles and fish.-W. A.
Riley, Division of Entomology.

In winning the 9th district basketball
title, the Ely high school five made his
tory repeat. Ely's title was won by de-
feating Gilbert in the finals. In 1929
Ely also won the title at the expense OF
highly touted Gilbert quint. Tower
and Eveleth were also Ely's victims in
the 1929 tourney as they were in the
recent one.
BY an odd coincidence, every team
in the district tourney that sat to the
right of the press table, lost their
games. We don't know If the seats
were "jinxed" or not, but the seven
teams that sat In them lost out.
That Ely played the cleaneSt ball of
any team in the district tourney is
clearly indicated in the fact that the
locals committed 20 personal fouls to
their opponents 38 in three games.
Gilbert, the other finalist in the tourney
committed 40 fouls in their three games.
Gilbert's opponents were charged with
80 fouls only 6 of them against Ely.
The Ely team were VIGOROUSLY weak
on free throws in their last two games.
The locals made 4 ont of IL against
Gilbert and out of Is against Eve
leth. In the Tower game the percen-
tage was better, Ely tossing in out
of a possible IA.
The officiating at the district games
was very ably taken care of. Leo Di-
Marco, Cloquet, and Frank Cleve, Moor
head, did the calling and turned in the
finest job seen at the district tourna-
ment in long number of years.
1t seems that Ely, this year, has the
Indian sign" on Gilbert basketball
teams. Three championships have
been won by Ely teams at the ex-
pense of a Gilbert team in the finals.
The Ely Opera House team won the
district SERA title by defeating the
Gilbert Loops in the finals. The Ar
rOwheads beat out Gilbert in the
finals of the Minnesota SSCU tour
ney and the high school five made it
three championships by winning from
Gilbert last Saturday.

saltwater Gazette-We agree with the
Waseca Herald that there should be no
such thing as tax-exempt securities. It
says: Zone real service which our ma
tional and state Legislators could do for
their taxburdened Gu tituents would be
to pass laws which will abolish all tax
exempt securities. The old excuse that
exempting government, state and NUM-
cipal bonds from taxation enabled the
borrowers to get money at lower rate
of interest is not good today, when
banks only pay two per cent interest on
deposits. There is neither good sense
nor justice in compelling the person
who deposits money in bank and gets
two per cent interest to pay taxes on
it, while the person who is drawing
four per cent or more on tax exempt

forestry too far at the expense of agri-
culture development in the future.
Others say that the forestry projects are
still too small. The question Is one of
great Importance.
1t must be admitted that we generally
go from one exterme to another. In one
decade nothing satisfies us but concen-
tration upon agriculture. In another
forestry is in fashion. Some people who
believed most earnestly in a farm on
every forty, 20 years ago, now are the
strongest opponents Of putting all of the
land into trees or giving it back to the
Indians.
1t was not so many years ago that
every mind was upon agriculture. That
was perfectly natural and right. The
world was reaching for food. Hungry
armies needed it that they might march
and fight. With millions of men swing
ing the sword instead of the scythe, the
world was hungry. That hunger con-
tinued for many years And while the
world cried for bread, it was natural
that we should try to give it, Northern
Minnesota spent about 60 million dollars
draining land. We watched forest fires
burn, and justified neglect by the
argument that the fire would make the
land more easily cleared.
We look at things differently today
when people are not buying food, when
potatoes which sold few years ago for
four dollars bushel cannot be sold at
any price. Consequently we turn to
forests. Some areas which were once
praised are now condemned. We tell
what fools we were a few years back
and go to another extreme. Are we
wrong or righta
