cording to an announcement made by

control will occupy the entire attention
of the camp Tor the two week spraying
period. Various survey crews will be
out all year with thousands of acres of
mapped area as their objective. Roads
into summer home sites, telephone
lines, and game census work will re-
ceive much attention.
Withthe arrival of the fire season,
the entire camp will be available at a
moments notice for fire fighting duty,
forming a bulwork of safety for public
and private property.
The work the boys are doing not only
/ benefits the forest and the public, but
themselves as well. To Halfway camp
at each enrolment period come scores
of young men from widely scattered
communities throughout Minnesota
They bring with them nothing but a
! formative mind. After working in the
forest, learning by doing, and observing
what real conservation means, they
take with them when they leave a
definite impression of conservation
which time will not erase. They be-
come a highly important medium of
educating the public at large to the
principles of conservation.

their existence when ore no longer will
be required, as he says, within brief
space of time.
In all probability the Minnesota legis-
lature is taking this Statement by the
scrap iron mogul seriously and is doing
its best to have such conditions come
to pass in their tax program whereby
soak the mines" seems to be their
motto to get more money to fritter
away among the faithful as long as the
faithful hold the whip hand in state
government.
1t is contendeo that high taxation
along with the scrap metal has closed
121 mines in st. Louis County alone.
According to the report of Ed. Smith,
county mine inspector, forty-two mines
were operated last year out of total
of 205 in the county.
With the price of iron ore set at
lower lake ports, the competition that
can develop from Cuban and Canadian
ores, the Canadian ores paying a pro-
duction bonus and not a devastating
tax to hamper the production; the
scrap iron situation and the antipathy
of Governor Benson and a bunch of
demagogues fomenting a hatred for the
interests that furnish a living to all
the range towns the subject is one of
the greatest Importance.
With the legislature working for the
constituents instead of the official pap
suckers" they are laying every stone
in the way of the interests by taxing
them out of existence The conse-
quences are that should the companies
now mining iron ore decide to pull out
and get their ore from Cuba or South
America, the rest of us with homes
and business on the ranges will be un-
able to meet the cost of government
What the ultimate outcome will be is
easy to guess.

care of on Eastwood if only the port
age is legalized and no road built to
the portage. Also since the road has
been discussed, the government has &C
quired several pieces of land through
which the road will necessarily pass and
the government is not very strong for
roads over their property.
The petition for the road from the
Fernberg road to the portage was
signed last year by the majority of re-
sorters on Eastwood. After the sigma
lures had been secured and the petition
presented to the Lake County COM
missioners, it was returned to the
signers with the request that the road
be rerouted to cut out federal prop
erty.
Nothing has since been done in this
regard. The road at that stage could
have been rerouted to avoid govern
ment land. Since then the federal
a large portion of the land through
which the road was routed.
Judging by the decision made by
Harold Ickes, secretary of the Interior,
in the case of the north shore road
which was rerouted through govern
ment lands Mr.. Ickes decided that the
road was OK where at present routed
and permission was not granted for the
rerouting, although requested by the
state highway department it is evident
that the U. S. authorities are not in
favor of roads over their lands.
In case the legalization of the Bass
wood Portage does not. follow the hear
ing and the meeting of the commits
sioners, it is understood the property
owners on the portage propose to exact
toll besides nothing is to prevent Other
property owners on the route from
doing the same.

prosperous position as salesman of a
large hardware company 25 years ago
and pledged his lifetime services. at
living expenses only, to the Salvation
Army.
ut took me two years to make the
decision" he says, land during that
time l was miserable. Judging by
material standards, it seemed foolish
to give up my job when l had wife
and three children dependent on me,
but when ! considered the spiritual
values, l knew it was the wise thing
to do
Mrs. Asher, who was Salvation
Army lassie in Scotland before her
marriage. encouraged her husband in
his desire to join the army, and the
two of them became officers in the
organization together.
Material Things Prove Second.
Although the Salvation Army is
probably best known for the relief it
gives to distressed people-baskets at
Christmas time, food. clothing and
shelter to the poor-it was not this
side that brought Brig. Asher into its
ranks. What impressed him was the
way many people reached the point of
not needing such aid after they had
accepted the religious way of life.
Il saw drunkards and buns for
years become stable, worthwhile citi-
zens supporting families whom for
years they had neglected and abused"
said Brig. Asher. Il became con-
vinced then, and my years in the army
have only strengthened that convic-
ton, that the only way to achieve any
social adjustment is through the power
of religion
His marriage and his decision to join
the Salvation Army. Brig Asher be-
lieves, are the two wisest things he
ever did in his life. He married when
he was very young, but did not join
