She said she believed her husband would insist on beaching the host tf it proved unable to weather the gale. Escanaba Roll Of Honor To Be Unveiled Sunday News From Men In The Service Two clues to the mystery of the disappearance of the Tallman fish tug with its crew of three Garden peninsula fishermen in a pre-Christmas gale, were being followed today by relatives of the missing men. Rudolph Tallman, father of the missing Tallman brothers, Ronald and Burton, 27 and 26 years old, respectively, and Chester and John Pardee, brothers of Perry Pardee, 53 years old, the third victim, prepared to make an expedition to Gull island and to Gull shoals, off the west shore of Beaver Island. A study of the chart has convinced the elder Tallman and the Pardees that the may have foundered on Gull shoals, which lie about six miles north and east of Boulder reef, the fishing objective of their ill-fated expedition.

The lake has a minimum depth of three feet over the shoals. If the survived tfie storm long enough to have neared her objective, the vessel may have overshot the winter navigation marker there and then attempted to make shelter on Beaver island, it was argued. This has led to speculation as to whether the wreckage of the tug may not be found on Gull island. Gull island lies a few miles directly north of Gull shoals, directly south of Suel Choix point and directly west of the north end of Beaver island; also directly west of High island. It is between and 70 miles east and northeast of the Fairport passage.

The southwest pale could easily have driven the on the beach of Gull island if it had stayed on its course any considerable length of time. The Beaver island coast guard began a search there and Rudolph Tallman has been assured a private search by Fairport fishermen will be un- u. i taken. A second rlue came to light nt Thompson, on the lake shore about six miles below Munistique, where Howard Gilroy who is operating a well-drilling machine at the Thompson state fish hatchery, told of seeing what appeared to be the cabin top of a fishing vessel. with glazed ports, bobbing off the shore ice.

Someone, apparently not aware that wreckage of the was being sought, told Gilroy that what he had seen was a bit of swept up by the seas, but when he returned to Manistique a Plowman's Folly" Gives New Ideas For The Farmers A book recently issued by tlie University of Oklahoma Press at Norman, is titled It is in Its fourth large printing and is the most talked of book of the day in farming world. The author, Edward H. Faulkner. is a former county agent ami Smith-Hughes teacher of agricul-! ture.

Listen to this: about us is evidence that the undisturbed surface of the earth produces a healthier growth than that portion now being fanned.

With the use of the disk-harrow only, we ought to be able to excel any other people of the world in production per acre on most of land that has been in crops I in this country for It seem possible that our great agricultural schools have been wrong, and yet Faulk- ner is backing his statements with many clearly successful experiments.
