Grated. The larger part of the levels
and drifts are in excellent condition,
only a few places having been dis
covered where timbering and other
necessary renovations are required.
The newly constructed road to Sandy
Point and the Pioneer mine, leading
over the Chandler property will be
abolished as the hosting ropes will be
too low over the road for safe travelling
Besides, the ground near the shaft over
which the road now passes will be
utilized for stockpile room.
At Tuesdays meeting of the City
Council the matter was discussed. The
city will construct a new road placing
the same further north to furnish way
to the Pioneer and Sandy Point.

HICKORY GROVE

About once in full moon I get
studious and kinda think about stuff
like, why such and such is so and SO
or vice versa. And it got to runnin
through my head the other day, why dc
some people do things like shoot theil

that they was breakin' their necks to
get each other.
And what I am Scribblin' about,
cannot answer it either, but they al

say they did it on
the spur of the mo-

have time to think.
So maybe it means
that we need more
time to sit down
and ponder before
hand, like in a

not do the ponder

the team will play before capacity
crowds in every game of the season.
Sale of tickets for the Minnesota-Notr
Dame game, october 80, closed two
weeks ago, with every seat in Memorial
Stadium taken. For the Northwestern
game, November Is, only about one
thousand bleacher seats remain unsold,
and these undoubtedly will be taken
weeks before the contest
Indications are that the Indiana and
Wisconsin games also will draw a cap
acity crowd, according to the ticket
office and way from home the Nebraska
stadium already has been sold out and
at Michigan and Iowa City the ticket
lsales have indicated unusual interest in
Minnesota's strong eleven.
Ely people are reserving tickets for
the home games. Many will attend,
especially the Notre Dame and North
western games.

Blocking a Tower kick from the 20
yard line, Mcfarland, end, recovered
for Ely on the Tower %. Hall and
LouShin hit the line for and IL yards,
respectively, to put the ball on the
yard line from where Hall carried it
across. Stukel on fake placekick play,
passed to Perko for the extra point to
make the score 80 to 0. Hall scored
again soon after when he went over the
goal from the yard line after Ely had
made drive of SIS yards. Stukel scored
the extra point on an end run when
he was unable to find a pass receiver.
Score, Ely 46, Tower o.
| With less than five minutes of the
third quarter gone, Coach Buckley again
gave his reserves chance by pulling
out his entire first team and the sec
ond stringers finished the game. In
all, twenty-Seven players saw action for
Ely.
| The reserves had their inning by
marking up touchdown late in the
third period. Prola took a Tower kick
on his own As and returned it "a yards
to the Tower 81 from where Ely
launched an attack which resulted in
a score. TomSich gained yards to
the %; Prola on reverse, went to the
ID; Tower was penalized to the Z; Banks
gained 2 and Tomsich to place the
ball on the 2 yard line. On a neat
reverse, Prola scored. A pass, Banks to
Prola, for the extra point succeeded
but the play was called back for Ely
holding. The extra point play failed
when tried again. Score, Ely So, Tower O.
During the fourth period, the ball
changed hands several times on fumbles
and kicks. Late in the quarter, Tower
made their bid for a score and sue
ceeded via the air. The visitors took
the ball on their own 38 and from
there started their touchdown march.
On the first play, Tower completed
their first pass of the game, Nyquist to
Helm for Z yards. Vessel plunged to
the Ely 48 for first down. Harma went
around end for II yards; Vessel picked
up 4 more; Helm went to the Is. On
the next play Tower was thrown back
for 2 yard loss. Nyquist passed to
Harma over the goal line for touch
down. Extra point by plunge was
stopped. Score, Ely So, Tower g. The
game ended minute later.
The entire Ely team played a fine,
heads-up brand of football and al
though individual ball carriers stood
out, their gains were made possible
through the play of the line in open
ing holes and blocking Perko, Buck
ley and LouShin, stood out in the back
field on offense with Prola, substitute
showing promise. Stukel, center, was
outstanding on defense. For Tower
Harma and Helm were the main Of
fensive threats.
Ely plays it's third game of the
season Friday night under lights at
Eveleth. The Eveleth game is one of
the traditional big battles on the Ely
schedule and produces some good foot
ball play by both teams. The locals to
date have had easy opposition but will
find the going tougher against the Hill
toppers On basis of what Ely has
shown to date, they have the stuff to
upset Eveleth but will have to play some
hard football to do it.

Straw-Alfalfa Mixture Makes
Good Cattle Feed

It is not always the most expensive
feed that puts the most pounds on cat
tie according to tests completed re-
Gently by the United States Bureau of
Animal Industry at its Miles City,
Mont, experiment station.
W. H. Black, beef-cattle specialist
of the Bureau, reports that one
group of heifers fed d mixture of oat
straw and alfalfa hay during the win
tering period came through in better
shape and made much better all-year
gain than heifers fed a straight ra-
ton of alfalfa hay. v '''
The wintering period lasted for 1923
days with one group receiving an av-
erage of 9 pounds Of pat straw and II
pounds of alfalfa hay daily. The other
group received % pounds Of alfalfa
hay daily. :.:..,.
While the groupefed9the straight al
falfa ration came through. the winter
period with an average gain Of 1873
pounds per animal compared to a
gain of 108 pounds for those fed the
cheaper mixture, the group fed the
straw and alfalfa evidently came off
the winter feeding period with better
grass appetites since the summer
gains for this group amounted to 225
pounds for each animal compared to
III pounds for the other group.
This made total net gain for the
group receiving the straw and alfalfa,
both winter and summer, amount to
333 pounds for each animal compared
to a net gain Of 3O4 pounds for those
fed the straight alfalfa ration-an
average of 20 pounds in favor Of the
group receiving the less expensive
feed during the winter months.

WORK OF HEALTH OFFICE
FOR 1886 is REVIEWED
DIR. E. C. Peck, Health Officer,
Discusses Diseases in County

The work of the Health Depart
ment during 1886 has been concerned
with those diseases which are most
readily prevented in this county and
which formerly were prevalent, DIR.
E. C. Peck, health officer, stated.
"Diphtheria, which formerly was a
serious danger to all children in the
county, has been controlled by the
program of immunizing with toxoid,
which included several thousand chill
dren in previous years and 449 this
year, so that only three cases occurred
in 1886, all in persons who had not
been immunized.
GAIL of the county public water sup
plies, except Bloomington, are in safe
condition and only four cases of ty-
phoid fever have occurred this year.
In former years the cases of these
diseases were numbered by dozens.
"a new method of scarlet fever
protection is being demonstrated in
this county and the cases of this
disease which in the previous two
years were over 100 each year, have
been only 60 this year. All of these
cases were in persons not protected
by the incubation.
Tuberculosis clinics have been held
regularly each month and nine new
cases were discovered this year. Seven
of these were discovered by the pub
lie health authorities. In this dis
ease there is no protective incubation,
but the control comes through dis
covering the cases early and getting
them under treatment which will pre-
vent spread of the disease and result
in cure if the case is treated early
enough.
"The only disease with considerable
numbers of cases were chickenpox,
which is not dangerous; pneumonia,
which had 26 cases; and the venereal
disease. There were Al cases of gon-
orrhoea and 81 cases of syphilis dis
covered this year. Owing to the ma
ture of these diseases, infectious
persons are hard to discover and con-
troll. A constant effort is made to
discover early cases, which can be
treated easily, so that the spread of
infection is stopped, but our control
will not be successful until the pub
lie realizes how serious they are and
how easily they can be controlled if
early cases go to a physician for
treatment and follow his directions
faithfully.
"Dr. Peck and Mrs. Cole, health
nurse, attended national conference
on venereal disease control in Wash
ington last week. There were over
700 public health workers from all
over the country present. AS result
of the conference, the work in the
three clinics in this county and the
follow-up Of cases by the public
health authorities will be intensified
but no radical changes or improve
ments in our work can be made"
