Identification of Rural
Areas is Possibility.

Rural identification of the entire
northern portion of st. Louis county
became a possibility last week when
delegates of % communities voted un-
animously to incorporate under the
federal rural Identification program.
One hundred representatives ATTENDED
the meeting in the Eveleth auditorium
last Thursday.
c. ". Barnhill, Washington, represent
tative of the federal rural electriflcatlon
program, outlined procedure In OBTAIN
ing a federal loan on the project. he
pointed out that the government
definitely was not interested in doing
business with small groups and would
not loan funds for lines which would
be in direct competition with existing
private or public utility systems. II a
loan is granted, Mr.. BarnhiH said, the
federal government will retain mort
gage on all lines until they are paid for
There will be no liability on the in
dividual farmers, he declared.
Members of the cooperative committee
are County Agent August Neubauer; E.
Nordahl, Linden Grove; w. F. Haenke,
Lakewood; Carl Lipisto, Fayal; Gust
Byman, Makinen; Adolph Hakala,

pected to take care of the rural situation

special session are about to con-
vene, in an endeavor to forstall and
discourage any such recommended
tons or proposed legislation sub
mitted for consideration during the
above mentioned special session.
The above resolution was adopted by
unanimous vote and was ordered sub
mitted to the legislature. The associ-
alton also sent letter of congratula-
ton to A. C.. Hansen on his appoint
ment as director of game and fish and
rendered the cooperation of the associ-
alton in matters relating to game and
fish.
The association also took up the
matter of cutting the underbrush, such
as scrub and ground cedar, hazelnut and
other brush and the cutting away of
the lower branches of cedar, birch, etc.,
in areas inhabited by deer and upon
which deer feed during the winter
months. The fallacy of this cleanup
was brought out, inasmuch as during
the past two winters countless deer have
starved to death by being unable to get
feed.
1t was pointed out in the discussion
that deer yard up in the swamps and
live on the brush within reach. The
deep SHOWS and the crust which formed
thereon during the past two winters
have made it impossible for the animals
to move very far. 1t was also shown
that the deer yards had been picked
bare of everything that could be eaten
and that particularly the fawns starved
to death being unable to reach the edi-
BILE branches of trees. The secretary
was instructed to get in touch with the
proper authorities to provide feed
should such condition arise this
winter.
Another subject discussed was the
proposal, ostensibly originating in the
Twin Cities and tending to the enact
ment of legislation providing an an
nual license fee Of $4,000 for the SEM
ing and disposing of by sale of min
news for bait. No particular action was
taken on this matter
The members of the association, how
ever, were unanimously of the opinion
that such fee was excessive and
should measure be introduced, it
should be fought. Some were of the
opinion that the dealers in minnows be
licensed but that $50 for such a dealer
was prohibitory; that the bootlegging
of minnows would follow and that out
side fishermen paying heavy license
would be barred to large extent as
with the heavy license fee the pur-
chase of minnows would be a serious
drawback as dealers would be COM
PEELED to charge exhorbitant prices for
live bait.

notables, a noon luncheon had been
arranged by the Junior Chamber of
Commerce at the Forest hotel. The
luncheon was scheduled for 1900 o'clock
but owing to the icy condition of the
road between here and Duluth the team
did not arrive on schedule and the
luncheon was delayed until after one
o'clock.
Seated at the luncheon table were
fifty of Ely's representatives of the
Junior Chamber, the Commercial Club,
the Arrowhead organization, University
Alumni and others. A most excellent
chicken dinner was served by Manager
Rikhus and his assistants.
Coach Edward Buckley of the Ely
schools served as POSTMASTER and did
the job in his usual efficient manner.
He mixed with his introductions a fund
of humor for which Ed. is noted.
Following the luncheon the toast
master introduced B. S. Richards, presi-
dent of the Ely Commercial Club; Frank
Schweiger, pinch hitting for Mayor
Steve Banovetz, who was unavoidably
absent; Frank Strukel of the Arrowhead
Club; Dr. George T. Ayres, representing

Game e Fish Department
Has .NelU Tank Truck.

A new tank truck for transporting
fish has been placed in service by the
state division of game and fish.

culator
Fish can safely be kept in the truck
for about a week, Mr.. Weaver said
They may be transported even in very
warm weather.
The truck has a capacity Of ap-

Drivers License Cost
Nine Cents Per Year.

Since the state drivers license dl-
vision was established by the 1883 legis-
lature, this organization has handled all
its duties, including the original pur-
chase of Office equipment, at cost OF
cproximately nine cents year Tor
each driver in the state.
This announcement was made this
week by Gil w. Carmichael, director OF
the division. He stated that the Mime
sofa drivers license fee is the lowest in
the United States where a charge Is
made for such licenses, and that the
operating cost of the drivers license OIL
vision in proportion to number OF IL
censes issued is also the lowest In the
United States, so far as available re-
cords show.
At a cost of nine cents year per
driver, the division paid all the initial
expense of setting up the license system
in Minnesota and paid for all salaries,
postage, supplies and equipment. the
checking of all applications, filing,
keeping of court and accident records,
the suspension and revocation OF IL
censes, the administration of the finan-
cial responsibility law and all miscel-
laneous duties The office equipment
included in the expenditures is of course
a permanent asset, Carmichael stated.
1--WE believe that safety results
achieved by the drivers license division
more than justify our expenditure OF
nine cents a year per driver" he
asserted "Minnesota's traffic fatality
record has shown reduction ever since
the license law began to function, and
we feel that this law has helped bring
about the improvement"

WALLACE DEFENDS
NEW TRADE PACT
Secretary Flags Criticism of
"Venomous Kind" in
Farm Address.

CHICAGO, December 10.-American
Farm Bureau Federation leaders
charged with responsibility for formu-
lating the 1896 policies of the organ
iSatiou today gauged reactions OF art
farmers" to the Presidents defense of
his New Deal program for agriculture,
as Secretary of Agriculture Henry A.
Wallace offered his considered Juog-
ment'' that American agriculture gains
from the Canadian reciprocal trade
treaty 80 far outweighed the losses
that the net advantage to our agri-
culture as a whole is very much worth
while
He welcomed constructive criticism,
n an address prepared for delivery at
the seventeenth annual American
Farm Bureau Federation convention,
but declared:
THE other kind of attack-the
bitter. venomous kinds not inspired
by any desire to help the farmers OF
this country. I believe that such un-
bridled assaults are inspired rather by
the same interests which p" have
fought every attempt by the farmers
to gain economic fair play"
His address was scheduled to fol-
Tow one by F. w. Peck, cooperative
bank commissioner of the Farm Credit
Administration.
Sees No Adverse Effects.
OF American concessions to Canada
on agricultural products he said that
'in none of these cases are imports
In prospect that will have materially
adverse effects upon American pro-
ducers."
Canadian concessions on meats and
meat products duties. he said. will
open the way "for our farmers to
get back a bigger share OF the British
pork market"
THE new agreement will permit
American pork to go to Canada to re-
place Canadian pork exported to
Great Britain, thus in effect permit
ting increased exports of American
pork to Great Britain"
He claimed important benefits to

would be substantial gains" for
United States grain growers.
Farmers of the United States will
unquestionably gain from the in
creased expectation Of manufactured
products to Canada" he said.
Sees Pay Roll Gains.
Suppose that exports of these prod
ucts are increased by $500, 0,000. .o0o-a
conservative figure in view of our
trade with Canada in the past-and
that half of this amount. or $780,
10000, goes into pay rolls.
This would mean definite and
substantial gains in the cash income
OF farmers. Studies have shown that
in the past an increase of $150,000, 900
In United States factory pay rolls add
ed from four to six million dollars to
the income of farmers in each of such
States as Illinois, Wisconsin, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa and
Ohio.
"Agriculture's real and continuing
problem Is not how to stop the, little
trickle of competing farm imports, but
how to move its own great surpluses
into export"

LONDON.-TheB British government,
swallowing so per cent of very large
estates in the form of huge death
duties" or inheritance taxes, insists
on payment in cash or special cate
cory of liquid government bonds.
On the other hand, the attitude Of
the internal revenue authorities is
fairly reasonable in that executors Of
an estate are allowed ample time to
Iquidate property, and the law is ad-
ministered with great fairness.
When Sir John Ellerman, the ship
ping magnate, died in the Summer OF
1888, and the government coolly took
100000 900 of his approximately
s4o,ooo,ooo estate his heirs ytre in a
lucky position.
Ellerman's fortune was invested
mostly in h1gh-class real estate and in
gilt-edged securities, like government
bonds. He was the third largest prop
erty owner in London. At the time
real estate prices were good and the
family liquidated the huge estate
without undue loss.
1t was quite unnecessary to put his
shipping business to forced sale or
interfere with it in any way.
If great millionaire dies with his
property tied up in fixed investment.
then the executors may suffer serious
losses. The government will accept
only cash or bonds Of the victory loan.
But for this rule the government by
