IGNACE, Mich., Aug. 12.—This land of tourists, forests and lakes is blanketed under the cloud u. t shadows the nation—bad business—for the first time in years. In the few short weeks of the tourist season here where every one from hod carriers to millionaires flock fCT cool breezes, the general depression has echoed with the coming of the vacationists. Persons who, in this territory, make their living for the year by renting rooms to the tourists, are bemoaning conditions. Their ledgers show only a small income as compared with last year, and they have empty rooms every night. Depend on This Month
They are looking forward to this month and the annual influx of hay lever sufferers to save them. Probably the most tragic report received here comes from the northwest part of the northern peninsula, where 200 families are living in tents made of sacks that contained road building materials, waiting for berries to ripen so they will have something to do. This doesn't mean that the tourists are not heading for this country in droves as they have in years gone by. It means that they either don t have the money to spend or, if they do, they are not spending it, after they get here. Crops Escape Heat The state parks that dot Michigan are filled with tourists. It is much cheaper to put up a tent and use the little cook stoves supplied by the state for the board and room than it is to go to a hotel, rooming house or camp and eat in a restaurant. The cool air in this area for the last month has saved the fanners. They are not harasser by the heat and scorched crops this far north. Danger of forest and grass fires has put the Michigan conservation department on its guard more than ever. A prairie fire raged in the

Able-bod-ied, ambitious young men and their elders compose the majority of the tramp army. Three of them dropped off a train from Sault Ste. Marie the other night. Would they work? Sure, where could they get a job. “I’ve been all over the northwest looking for work,” one of them said. There's nothing doing.” Restaurant that had a thriving business in years gone by don’t have much trouble during meal hours handling the “crowds.” So It goes, with the people of this vacation land wanting to know what has caused the financial catastrophe. They want to know if next year or the year after will see a change for the better. So far they haven’t hand an answer.
