Although May 29, 1848, was the formal date of Wisconsin's admission to statehood, the story of this northern midwest region covers more time before than after the.event, notes the National Geographic society. White men opened the first chapter more than 200 years earlier. In a sense it was opened by mistake. For Jean Nicolet, sent exploring in 1634 by Governor Champlain of New France, hoped to find the Orient beyond Lake Huron. So optimistic was Nicolet that he carried a magnificent Chinese robe when he beached his birch-bark canoe on the Green Bay shore of what is now Wisconsin. The descendants of the early Inwho disappointed Nicolet are still an Important factor in present-day Wisconsin's color and personality. Numerous burial mound?: and other evidences of much older civilizations also may be seen by the inquiring centennial visitor at such prehistoric sites as that at Aztalan. •After the French and Indian war. the British took over from Frm:?, to be succeeded a few decadcs later by the then fledgling United States, newly independent.

The leading producer of fun in the United States is Louisiana, with 8,500,000 pelts taken during the past season. More than 8.000,000 of the total were muskrats produced on Louisiana coastal and delta marshes. Following Louisiana's Staggering total are Minnesota with 1,900,000; Texas, 1,058,000 and Ohio. •57.000. Big game In the United States has increased about 25. per cent in a period of three years, according to the U. S. fish and wildlife service. A recently completed tabulation of figures received from federal, state and private agencies reveals an estimated population of all animals classified as big game as 8.240,000 in 1946, compared with 6,598,422 animals in 1943. These estimates, the service points out, cannot be considered as absolute* ly accurate because big game animals are difficult to count even under ideal conditions and on small areas. The estimates or counts are made while animals are on their winter range, although for a few species it has been found better to wait until early spring. A majority of the big game in this country is found on statt and private lands, the survey reveals. Of the total, 67 per cent were found in such areas. The national forests hold 28 per cent, the grazing districts 3 per cent, national parks 1 per cent, Indian reservations 1 per cent and less than 1 per cent on fish and wildlife ssrvice refuges. Leading all states In big game populations in 1946 is Michigan With 880,600 animals,' nearly all of which were deer. Next in line waa Wisconsin with 795,600, while Pennsylvania with 679,600 was third. A very beautiful mid-summer, double-ring wedding was solenti on Saturday- morning, July 24, at St. Mary's church when Ifiss Dorothy PfannenstiU of McHenry, daughter nf Mr. and Mrs. Edward J. PfannenstiU, NfOM Um bride of Mr. Lawrence G. (Bod) Freuad, son of Mr. and Mri. Nick B. Freund. The nuptial mass was read at 9:30 by Rt. Rev. Msgr. Charles 8. Nix. The bride was radiant in a gown of ivory satin, with marquisette neck and fitted bodice. The skirt had the "new look," with lace starting at the waist and ending at the hem line, the skirt tapering into a train. Her finger-tip veil was held in place by a tier of orange blossoms and gathered at each side with a cluster of the same flowers. She carried a cascade bouquet of white roses. At the end of the mass, the bride placed a bouquet at the altar of the fBlessed Virgin Mother as Miss Betty Long, friend of the bride, sang "Oil This Day O' Beautiful Mother." During the mass, Miss Long sang the '^Ave Maria." Miss Patricia Henn, friend of the bride, served as maid-of-honor, wearing a lilac marquisette dress with matching gauntlets. The headpiece consisted of pink carnations set off with silver metallic ribbon. She carried a neo-Victorian style bouquet of pink carnations and wore a 'rhinestone choker and bracelet, her gift from the bride.

In a case study on the Kawishiwi experimental forest in northeastern Minnesota, it was estimated that 96 porcupines caused damage amounting to 116.94 annually to 109 jack pine trees, or an average of 47 cents per porcupine. In addition to jack pine, tree species most commonly damaged are tamarack, white pine, sugar maple, yellow birch and red pine. A single animal may cause considerable damage when it works a long time in one location. Areas well supplied with natural dens, such as are provided by overhanging rock ledges or ~ windthrown trees, appear to harbor the greatest populations. ICE CREAM «l Mtsitl PftK hifca Ci» Br--.

But to the millions who turn their radios on for pure enjoyment, FM means broadcasting without static, radio without noise. FM brings to radio a realism and clarity of tone that has neve? been approached by standard AM broadcasting. Sounds th%t are made to a radio studio, or concert hall, or wherever the .program Is coning from, reach the listener exactly as they are when made.
