It was the second successive meeting of the council resulting in changes in the parking restrictions for the downtown district. Principal change in Ihe ordinance under the new amendment is the reduction of parking time on Stevens and Rives streets )o one hour. Previously motorists could park on these streets for two hours at a time. Other changes are: Extension of the parking restrictions on all downtown streets to 7 p. m.

instead of 6 p. m. Extension of the one-hour parking limit on Davenport street from Stevens to Pelham streets. Prohibiting parking at any time on the north side of Frederick street, between Brown and Alban streets. The reduction of the parking time on Stevens and Rives streets gives the city a general one-hour parking limit in the downtown area.

This change, together with the extension of Ihe parking limit on Davenport street, should give city more parking space during hours, councilmen said. -Signs to Be Changed. As a result of the amendment, one-hour parking will be permitted between the hours of 8 a. m. and 7 p.

m. on the following streets: Brown, from Frederick to Anderson; Stevens, from Rives to Anderson; Davenport, from Anderson to Pelham; Rives, from Anderson to Stevens; King, from Brown to Stevens; and Anderson, from Brown to Pelham. Adoption of the amendment to the ordinance followed suspension of the rules to permit immediate County Board Approves Trade Of Land with State An exchange of lands', by which the state conservation commission will acquire title to 210 descriptions now county-owned and the county will got 100 descriptions now state-owned, was approved by the Oneida county board of supervisors this morninrr.

Because of revived interest in the state guard officers are hoping to make the Rhinelander unit an in-, fantry company instead of the proposed headquarters and service company. In order to reach the number required for an infantry company, however, the units must obtain at least 15 additional enlistments. Fifty men will be needed to fill the ranks for an infantry company, whereas only 30 are required for a headquarters and service outfit. All men interested (and eligible) in the state guard ma'y obtain complete information at the Memorial action on the law. Ordinarily the council would have to wait two weeks after the first reading of the law before taking final action.

City Manager T. M. Wardwell said the changes in the ordinance will become effective when signs are changed to conform with the amended law. The task of changing the parking limit signs will take from 10 days to two weeks, he explained, inasmuch as every sign will have to be corrected. Chief Hack also suggested that parking be prohibited on the east side of Stevens street, from Rives to Phillip streets, but councilmen July 21.

felt that this change would elim-' inate too much valuable parking space. Chief Hack pointed out that in the winter time, when snow is banked along the sides of the street, motorists find it difficult to travel along this street if cars are parked on both sides. City Manager Wardwell said that city crews will re-move accumulated snow from this area next winter to eliminale this difficulty. Alley Vacation Sought. After hearing a petition for vacation of an alley adjacent to the Curran school grounds, the council approved an order calling a public building Thursday and Monday nights, Capt.

Hack said. Men between the ages of 36 and 55 are eligible, as are selective service registrants who have been placed in the 3-A classification or who will be so classified when they fill out their questionnaires. All men with dependents are classified in 3-A, it was pointed out. Ed Lillrose is taking measurements of the state guard members in preparation for the ordering of complete uniforms and equipment. Physical examinations for new members of the company will be given at the next other lands acquired from the state.

The proposed transfer has been ponding before the county board has been held up of the forest extension in Sugar Camp, This approval has now been received and it is believed that the actual transfer will be effected soon. The board this morning authorized Highway Commissioner Harry J. Williams to assign the two coun-- I ty traffic officers. Merrill Hibbard and Clifford Gtiilday, to duty in I Langlade county and the city of Antigo on Aug. 3 and 4, when the American Legion state convention will be in session.

H. Maine and the city. The city attorney explained that Draheim contends Maine has constructed a fence on Hill street and has started a law suit to force Maine to remove the obstruction. Because a public street is involved, the city has been drawn into the case, he added. A number of residents along Crescent street, which runs parallel to the west city limits, appeared at the meeting to inquire about the status of their request for annexation to the city.

They were told that the council will be unable to take action on the request until all property owners along the street have given the city quit claim deeds for that portion of the land required for street purposes.

Farm Labor Supply Low; Wages Climbing The supply of Wisconsin farm labor is now lower than it has been in more than 10 years and farm wages are the highest since July 1930, according to the crop reporting service of the Wisconsin and United States departments of agriculture. As a result of the smaller supply of farm labor, wages are n.ow 34 per cent above a year ago and 53 per cent higher than the 1910-14 level. Wisconsin crop correspondents indicate that the average mqnthly of wage with board is now $42 $10.75 more than a year ago. Farmdrs are paying an average of $57.25 per month without board, $2.10 per day with board, a'nd per day without board.

A year ago wage rates averaged $44 per month without board, $2.10 per day without board, and $1.55 per day with board. The decrease in the number of laborers available for farm wofk is partly because of an increase in the number now being employed on Wisconsin farms as well' as a greater industrial employment. Employment information furnished by Wisconsin farmers shows that there-4 are 240 persons' working per 100 farms compared with 231 a year ago. The number of family workers averages 180 per 100 farms or the same as a year ago. However, there has been a substantial increase in the number of hired laborers with 60 employed per 100 farms com- pared with 51 a year ago, according to Wisconsin crop reporters.
