ICE "CROP" LAGS-

Sauk Lakes ice crop, with grow
ing" conditions slightly under par,
is tagging this year over former
years. The ice crust, that blankets
the lake from late November until
mid-April each year, has reached a
thickness Of only ten inches this
year. Usual sheet of ice at this
time of year, H. F. Bastien says,
is usually at IA or Is inches. Old
timers, and others not so old, can
remember 35 and 40 inch crusts in
mid-season. Unprecedented warmth
during this early winter is blamed
for the tagging freezing of the
lake. Ice crop harvest, underway
many years in late January and
early February, may be delayed un-
less cold weather Is in store for
Minnesota.

PROPOSAL MADE FOR
SMALL WOOD CUTTERS

Small timber operators would
benefit under the terms of the
recommendation of the interim
commission studying forestry and
tax delinquent land problems
which held its final meeting at st.
Paul last week, according to Con-
servation Commissioner Herman
G. Wenzel, chairman of the group.
The commission recommends
that laws be enacted which would
permit the sale of up to $3.50
worth of timber from state lands
to small operators, usually farmers
living in the area, without the
present requirement of public auc-
ton. The auction requirement, in
many cases makes it difficult for
the small operator to obtain the
timber when he wants, and invol-

Conservation News
UPLAND GAME MUST
BE USED BY JANUARY 10

All upland game birds, that is,
pheasants and quail that were
legally taken and have been kept
under the conservation department
retaining permit, must be consum-
ed by January 10, according to
Director Harry E. Speakes, divi-
sion of game and fish.
Venison, if properly tagged, may
be kept until February %, but must
be consumed by that date. Any up
land game birds, or venison held
after the dates specified are IL
legal, and subject to seizure, and
the holder may be prosecuted un-
der the law.
The federal regulations required
that waterfowl might be held only
ten days after the close Of the
season, or until November "a.
While these regulations are plain
ly set forth in the license regula-
tions and law summaries furnish
ed with licenses, number Of ar
rests have been made by game
wardens for illegal possession Of
waterfowl after November "a, ac-
cording to Speakes. The state divi-
sion of game and fish Is extending
full cooperation to the federal gov
ernment in the enforcement of
waterfowl and migratory bird
laws.

ASK AAA AID FOR
WOODLOT GROWING

HdI LuC oIdSC Va xAMAACSOto
qualify for federal aid to farmers
under the Clarke-McNary act pro-
viding assistance in woodlot and
shelterbelt planting, Is the recon-
mendation of the forestry interim
commission meeting In St. Paul
last week, according to Conserva-
tion Commissioner Herman G..
Wenzel, chairman Of the group.
The commission recommended
that the legislature enact laws
whereby the state may pur h e
nursery stock and sell the trees to
farmers at cost, thus enabling
them to benefit under the federal
act.
In addition, the commission re-
commends that the legislature
memorialize congress to provide
aid under the agricultural adjust
ment or soil conservation program
whereby farmers may obtain bene-
fit payments for development and
maintenance Of farm woodlots and
shelterbelts.
1t is pointed out that Minnesota
because it has never made provi-
sion to furnish planting stock to
farmers, is one of only four states
that are unable to benefit under
the Clarke-McNary act. 1t Is the
only state east Of the Mississippi
river that has never so qualified.
The state division of forestry
produces coniders for planting in
state forest areas, on state owned
land, but does not produce hard
woods, under present laws. Nurse
ry men producing this hardwood
stock could sell in large quantities
to the state at a much smaller fig
ure than In small lots, and could
be assured Of stable market for
their products, according to the
commission.

hand not some one else's. 1t was to
be ex ected that the Presidents action
woulo bring the charge he was seeking
one-man control of the United States
Government. But the President, ap-
parently, was willing to risk raising
this issue.
Like G. o. p. in 1924.
There seems no slightest doubt now
that the attempt of the President and
his New Deal Inner circle" to oust
more conservative Democrats from
office-and from the party-has
brought a real schism in the Demo-
cratic ranks. The President faces a
problem not dissimilar from that
which confronted the regular Republi-
cans in 1924 and thereafter, when men
like La Toilette of Wisconsin, Ladd
OF North Dakota and others jumped
the party reservation. In those days
the progressive Republicans called for
a new political alignment, with all
the conservatives on one side and all
the progressives on the other. 1t ap-
pears that President Roosevelt is max
Ing similar mistake now.
However, although Mr.. Roosevelt
has asked the defeat of certain con-
servatives in his party, the Roosevelt
leaders are by no means discarding
the aid of some Democrats who by
the widest stretch of the Imagination
cannot be considered New Deal lib
erals. Take, for example, the situa-
tion in New Jersey. There the ad-
ministration has gone out on a limb
for a senatorial condidate-W. H. j.
Ely. Mr.. Ely has been w. P. A. ad-
ministrator in New Jersey since the
beginning of Federal relief. At the
same time Mr.. Ely has been q friend
of Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey
City-a very realistic political boss.
Putting forward a relief administra-
tor for Senator may be entirely legal
as 1t is-but it seems to be croWding
things bit ethically However, there
was talk while back in administra-
ton circles that the greatest dis
tributor of relief of them ALL Harry
l.. Hopkins, might be put forward
for the Democratic nomination for
Governor of New York. Mr.. Ely in
New Jersey may be expected to have
the support of all the thousands of
men and women on work relief and
other kinds of Federal charity. OF
course, according to Mr.. Hopkins and
others, the w. P. A. is not in politics.
But the general public is wondering
about it more and more.
