If you click on the song link, on my browser at least, there's a list of file formats on the right for "download" from FLAC to MP3.

(There is some delay, and a popup blocker might be causing a problem, or perhaps it's actually downloading a file on your system - check your Downloads folder.)
Right now, I'm listening to Little Honolulu Lou, where I suspect the mandolin is pretending to be a ukulele. (Probably won't add that one to my list, but just browsing all of the libraries, not specific to mandolin, and did find What Color Are Pansies? Woo Woo Woo - that's sure to be a crowd pleaser )
p.s. FWIW and IANAL, copyright is far more complicated than can be conveyed in a post. But, just because a sound recording is public domain does not, itself, mean that the underlying work or, specifically, any [more] modern arrangement or subsequent sound recording is in the public domain.
