Grand Rapids people have never be- fore been treated to so great an en- tertainment on rollers as this will prove to be. The following is taken from the Duluth Herald of last week, where the Vernons played: tat full houses at the Auditorium rink for a whole week: “The Two Vernons opened an_ en- gagement at the Auditorium last ev- ening before a large crowd despite the inclement weather. Featured as two of the best trick and fancy skat- }ers in the world, the Vernons fully justified the reputation that has pre- ceded them. They gave the best lexhibition of trick and fancy skating that has ever been seen in Duluth. “One of the features of the even- ngi was the electric dance on skates. The lights are extinguished and the figure is given in the darkness, the figures of the skaters being outlined by tiny lights. The toe dance and the barn dance on skates also made a hit with the crowd, which showed its appreciation by frequent applause. All of the tricks performed by the Vernons haye the distinct touch of individuality that has made them two of the greatest fancy skaters in the world. All of the tricks, even the mcst difficult, are performed with ease and grace, so much so that it seems hard to realize that some of the figures are among the most , difficult for skaters to master.” "HERCULES Bo are the Ask for this Label best in the world ys’ Suits HERCULES ALL WOOL RAIN-PROOF MOTH-PROOF PERSPIRATION-P ROOF Sold by Lieberman Bros —— work. won't last long. when you buy of him.

DAIRYING SPELLS REAL PROSPERITY Says Supt. A. J. McGuire in an Ar- ticle in Farm, Stock and Home. A dairy cow is the most profitable farm animal in the cut-over timber section. She will not only pay well for liberal feeding, but she will get and pick up good profit from this land that could not be used otherwise until cleared. Dairy Industry Accepted. The dairy industry has been agreed upon by the majority of farmers as the foundation for the system of agri- culture of the timbered section. Ev- ery business man advocates dairying and every farmer who has taken up! ‘dairying in a practical way is pros- perous. Due to the dairy industry being so generally accepted, the in-} dustry as a whole is far in ad-| vance of what dairying was in oth- er new countries in the same num- ber of years. An impoverished soil has not forced the farmers to dairy- ing, as in many sections, but the natural conditions of the country | has made dairying essential from | the start. .When a man begins farm- ing, he begins dairying. Farmers That Are Not Farmers. ago and started in dairying I would different circumstances to- day,” I heard a farmer remark. This | years and in reality farming, making something from his farm. Before he lived on the farm, but worked at tim- ber and this is the trouble with a/ great number who pass under - the! term “farmers.” I recently passed aj farm far out in the woods and was surprised with the prosperous ap- pearance of the place. What does this man do? I asked the driver who knew the country. “Well,” he said, “he keeps a number of cows.” That’s about all that need be said about the secret of a farmer’s suc- cess in the timber section. Potato farming has brought big profits, the hay crop pays well for some and truck farming has been generally success- ful, but the business that builds a good, solid, lasting prosperity is dairying. Dairy Stock Breeding. Improvement in dairy stock has been started with the dairy indus- try. The timbered section of North- ern Minnesota has more herds of Guernsey cattle than any other sec- tion of the state, notwithstanding the fact that dairying in this section is less than ten years old. This pro- gress has been made largely through the selection of the Guernsey breed of cattle for Northeastern Minnesoth. The ground was taken that one breed would bring greater results than a number of breeds. It soon sires and to co-operative dairy stock breeding associations. Two associa- tions in particular have been formed, one purchasing four pure bred sires and the other six. pure bred sires. The sires purchased were unrelated and are exchanged from one point in the community to another every two years. In this way a sire may be used throughout his period of useful- ness. The sire bought individually is often sacrificed for want of sale. Guernsey Breeders’ Association. | With the purpose of promoting the | greatest advancement in dairy stock breeding the men of Northeastern | Minnesota who are most interested | the ized an association to breed one breed of dairy cattle, believing that | through co-operation with some one breed better results could be secured | |than with a number of breeds. This} | association has developed into the Guernsey Breeders’ Association of | Northern Minnesota and _ Northern | Wisconsin, and among its members| are Guernsey breeders whose herds | measure favorably with the best! Guernsey blood in the country. | While this association is not widely, known, its work has brought about | {marked results in the section it in-/ |tends to benefit. Northern Minneso-| ta now has the Guernsey breed of | dairy cattle well distributed through- | out its territory. The object of the| pssociation is not profit alone, but to make its territory a great dairy section. THE HIGH SCHOOL TEAM IS DEFEATED The Grand Rapids high school was defeated at Virginia Saturday by @ score of 12 to 0. The local team had two or three green men in the line, but when they are whipped into shape, Grand Rapids will give a LANDSLIDE FOR FOOTBALL TEAM Grand Rapids Defeated Bemidji Sunday By One-sided Score of 104 to 0. Say, were we there? Well, I should rather guess. There wasn’t a thing to it but go ahead with the ball. You see, Mabel, it was like this. The Bemidji boys were a lit- tle undersized, but they made up for that in nerve, for they came down imbued with the idea that they had something easy to go up against. Now, it’s a fact the Grand Rapids team was badly in need of practice, but any time they gat an idea in their head that there’s easy pickings, that’s where they got a wrong car, for we've got the material. Ps The quarters were 15 and 10 min- utes in length, alternately, and dur- ing the first quarter Grand Rapids scored 40 points, making gains at will, while their opponents were un- able to keep the ball out of danger- ous territory, much less score. When the game ended there was a reverent hush for a short time, but the crowd soon became impatient to have the score announced and they could not be quieted until Man- ager O’Day stated they would have to wait until Scorer Roecker could get ‘them added together on an ad- ding machine—it was too big a con- tract to attempt by hand. The, final score was 104 to 0 in Grand Rapids’ favor and the major number of points were scored on |} forward passes, the visitors seem-| ingly being unable to cover ground fast enough to intercept them. Mul- vihill and Brandon were the stars of the game. Following was ‘the; Grand Rapids line-up: Zeininger, c; Mulvihill, rg; Kremer and Finnigan, lg; Litchke, rt; O’Brien, lt; Romans, re; McAlpine, le; A. Doran, rh; Brandon, lh; O.

WANTS THE AID OF THE SPORTSMEN State Forester Cox Says Every Hunter and Fisher Should Be ‘Volunteer Ranger. William T. Cox, state forester is asking the co-operation of all sports- men in his work in the preservation of the woods. He states that with the disappearance of the forests, the game and many of the game fish will disappear with them. For that rea- son he believes that every sports- man should constitute himself a vol- unteer ranger and game warden, The state forester is making his appeal through a neatly printed cir- cular that is passed to each hunter to whom a license is issued, together with a synopsis of.the.game.laws. The circular reads as follows: “All sportsmen are interested in the protection of our forests. This could not be otherwise, since the forests constitute the natural home} of all big game within the state. With the disappearance of the woods | the game will disappear also. Many} of our game fish can live only in| our wooded lakes and streams; the protection afforded by the forest and character of run-off to their existence and propagation. “The sportsman, before all others, appreciates the.forest.for.its.own sake, The lure of the woods is one of the greatest incentives to the camper, to go on a lengthy canoe trip or camp in the northern wilderness were it not for the call of the woods? steadily reduced in area and im- | poverished in character by fires, and this is an appeal to you to do all in your power to prevent forest fires them. son leaving a fire unextinguished is liable for the damage it does and is subject to prosecutlon as well. “The state has over a hundred rangers and patrolmen on duty, but every sportsman should be a volun- teer ranger and game warden and help protect the forests and the ame.” ay CARD OF THANKS.
