OPEN SEASON FOR QUAILS.
It Does Not Begin Until Nov. 10, and
Closes with the Year.

MANY people," said DR.. S. II. Moore, yes
terday, do not seem to know when the
open season for quails begins in Indiana.
This is largely due to the fact that the old
law appears in the Revised Statutes. the
act of the last Legislature not yet having
found a place in the book. The old law
permitted quails to be shot from Oct. Is to
Dec. 20. making the open season a little
over two months. The new law reads:
Whoever shoots or destroys or pursues
for the purpose of shooting or destroying.
or has in his possession, any quails or
pheasants during the period from the first
day of January of any year to the tenth
day of November of the same year. or
shoots or kills any wild turkey between
the first day of February and the first day
of November of any year, shall be fined
in the sum of 81 for each quail, wild turkey
or pheasant SO killed, and the sum of 81
for each quail or pheasant so pursued or
had in his possession
at will be seen by the above that the
open season for quails now is from Nov.
10 to Dec. 81, inclusive. 1t is said that the
Limited Gun Club and the Fish and Game
Protective Association may offer rewards
for the arrest of any person found killing
uuails out of season. The commission
houses and restaurants may also be
watched, for they are liable to a fine of 81
for each bird found in their possession"

HumOr of the Campaign.

Marion l.. Griffith, Democratic candidate
for Attorney-general, and John w. Kern
were talking to a group at the Grand Ho-
tel last night, just before a meeting of the
State candidates. and the conversation
turned to the size of crowds at political
meetings and the manner of the party pa
pers in estimating them.

some party papers are accurate in sizing
up the crowds and in speaking of the
warmth of the reception to speakers. L

about the meeting: After Hord concluded
his idiotic drivel of two hours a young fei-

sight. That was true as far as it went,
but that sheet did not say one word about.

THE BIDS ON RUBBER HOSE.
Board of Safety May Award a Big Con-
tract To-Day.

The representatives of the various hose
companies which have submitted bids for
hose to be purchased by the Board Of Pub
lie Safety are gathering in the city. One of
the representatives of a rubber hose firm
claims that cities are abandoning the use Of
cotton for rubber hose. When the board
last purchased hose it asked for bids on
cotton hose only, and refused to entertain
bids for rubber hose. This time il has
asked for bids on rubber hose alone, and
that kind will be purchased. 1t is claimed
that the rubber hose costs only 10 cents a
foot more than the cotton hose mostly used
by the department in this city, and is, in
fact, a saving over cotton hose, in that it
requires only one-half the amount to sup
Ply the department. This is due to the fact
that the cotton hose must always be dry
when it is used, and each company is COM
PEELED TO carry a double upply of 1t in
order that one lot may be used While the
other is drying. This inconvenience is done
away with in the use of rubber hose.

1T WAS A GREAT TRIP
GENERAL HARRIsON's SPEECHES IN
CREASE REPUBLICAN ENTHUSIASM.
day VIII Probably Attract Even
Larger Audiences.

The coming week of the campaign, that
is now on so vigorously with the Repub-
leans of Indiana, will be a lively one.
There will be speeches in every part of the
State every night, and Thursday Gen. Har-
rison will start for Fort Wayne, returning
by way of Lafayette and making short
speeches at the principal towns along the
route. The demonstrations at these points
will undoubtedly be huge affairs, much
larger than the magnificent turnouts along
the Evansville route, for the territory
through which the Fort Wayne trip is
10 be made is not so thickly settled with
Democrats as that through which the
Evansville trip was made.
The success of the tour which ended
Saturday evening was a live subject of COM
ment among the politicians who gathered
in the hotel Hobbies yesterday. Even Demo-
Gratis conceded that the crowds were far
beyond their anticipation, for it was not
believed by them that Gen. Harrison could
draw such large audiences in districts that
had heretofore been renowned for their
Democracy. The morning Democratic organ
gave the attendance at English at three
thousand and at Seymour at about three
thousand, and that organ Is famed for its
extreme conservatism in estimating crowds
at RepuDlcan meetings. seymour Is the
home of Jason Brown and is in the center
of a district that has been accustomed to
furnish Democratic majorities.
Leading Republicans have had their en-
thusiasm heightened by the results of the
trip and they believe the counties in south
western Indiana will show surprisingly
large Republican gains on Nov. 6. Some of
the Democratic leaders profess to believe
that the speeches will have little effect as
the people in the counties in that part Of
the State are too strongly welded to their
Democratic idols. John W.. Kern, in speak
ing about the speeches last night, insisted
that such rouslng meetings would only
serve to make the Democratic county COM
mittees more alert and more Industrious.
The Democratic State candidates were
hurriedly summoned here by Chairman Tag
CART Saturday and q meeting was held at
the Grand Hotel last night to discuss the
gravity OF the situation in the Democratic
camp. The appearance of Gen. Harrison
on the platform in both northern and south
ern parts of the State, and the tremendous
greeting which he has received so far has
put the Democrats without even q slight
hope in the success of their ticket this fall.
The proceedings Of the meeting of Demo-
cratic candidates were kept a religious
secret.

FIGHTING THE CUTWoRM.
Prof. Riley Tells How to Get Rid of This
Destructive Pest.

Prof. Riley Tells How to Get Rid Of This
Destructive Pest.
Young corn is often grievously in
jured b. cutworms The following
reply, by Prof. c. V. Riley, to a CORE
spondent of the Scientific American
who has been more than usually
troubled will, therefore, be read with
interest at this time:
If specimens of the particular cut
worms were sent to the station for
Identification some preventive meas
ures might be suggested, as much de-
ponds on the particular species. In a
general way most of the species have
similar habits in the larval state; but
to deal directly with them when, as in
this case, they are distributed over
large areas, is very serious problem
The most successful means under
these conditions is by the distribution
of poisonous bats. These may con-
sist of freshly cut clover or other sue
culent vegetation poisoned with paris
green and made into balls or gathered
into masses, so as to prevent their too
rapid drying. One mode Of accom-
plishing this last object is by covering
the poisoned plants with boards.
These poisoned bats, if placed at In
tervals along the corn rows will at
tract a large proportion of the cut
worms, which, by feeding upon them,
will perish. For smaller areas, or for
garden patches the same method may
be followed, or the Larvae may be I'M
earthed from about the base of the
plants, where they retire for conceal
ment during the day.
Another method is to take q smooth
walking cane and make smooth holes
several inches deep at intervals, going
over the same ground every day and
punching in these holes to destroy the
worms which seek them during the
day as a pla ce of concealment and
tumble In. The patent salts, such as
kainit, have proved of the greatest
value against many subterranean in
sects, and undoubtedly will be of value
against these cutworms. They have
the additional advantage of being gooC
fertilizers, so that their expense as in
secticides is more than offset by thell
value to the crop and to the land,
think with your correspondent that i
is too late to accomplish much the
present year, but by a combination o
the three methods suggested he vii
be able another year to prevent mucl
of the trouble. 1t is we'll, where field
are badly infested with cutworms, t.
plant thiclIly, so that two or tire,
young corn plants may be spared from
each hill without seriously affecting
the crop 1t is also wise, on genera
principles, to keep fields that are TO b.
planted to corn thoroughly clear ant
clean of weeds and other vegetation
during the fall; and in this light fal
blowing becomes extremely important

A simple Cure for Backing.

When a horse stops and proposes so
turn around don't resist the turn, but
give him quiet horizontal pull in the
direction he wants to turn so as to car
ry him further around than he intend
ed to go, and if possible keep him going
around a half dozen times, says a
horse trainer. In most cases this will
upset all his calculations, and he will
go quietly on without much ado. If
six turns will not do give him twenty, In
fact, if he will keep on turning to your
rein you are sure to conquer, as enough
turning will confuse him and leave
him at your comma I'd. If he will not
turn, and will back to the rein, keep
him going backward in the direction
you want to go. He will soon get
tired of that and prefer to go with the
right end forward, but before you let
him go give him decidedly more back
ing than he likes.

SUGAR beets are first-class fattening

FOR FEEDING LAMBS.
CreSp That Can Be Adjusted to Suit ths
Size of the Animals.

To feed grain to lambs it is neces-
sary that special place be prepared
for the purpose. A corner of the sheep
pen may easily be partitioned off or in
the field a sheltered place where the
flock is in the habit of gathering can
be so arranged as to exclude the older
animals. In order to do this lamb
creeps of some sort must be provided.
1t is difficult matter to make Greeps
which will answer every purpose. The
flock will necessarily contain lambs Of
different sizes, and, besides, as the an
imals grow, the size of the openings
must be increased. An ingenious con-
trivance which has been found to an
swer the purpose well is shown in the
illustration. The creep is feet 4
inches high and 4 feet 8 inches wide,
the framework being made of light,
fat iron strips. The upright and hori'

TRAIN COLTS TO WALK.
1t Is PROFESSIONALLY the Best Gait 70
Ordinary Purposes.

1t Is UnquestiOnably the Best Gait for
Ordinary Purposes.
Many colts are now learning to
work. The rate of travel required of
them is important Confning the
travel mainly to walk is not the rule
with all drivers. As soon as the young
animal ceases to rear and plunge in
the harness, it is often considered
broken" and is allowed to take any
gait it may choose. The old horse by
which the youngster Is hitched is al
lowed to advance by long, rapid
strides, thus forcing the colt ont of a
walk from the start The older ami
NAL needs to be held back and forced
to walk at rate which the learner
can equal. Gradually increase the
rate, but only in keeping with the
ability Of the colt to walk. A colt
that proves naturally slow at the walk
must be given short trips of not more
than five miles, and be steadily urged
to faster gait. 1t is work to drive a
green" colt properly. The man who
takes the reins at such times for
pleasure is out of place. The early
habits of the colt will cling to it. For
this reason it should be made to travel
at brisk walk during the first three
months tits worked. The we'll trained
horse finds it a relief from the walk,
of course, to be given a brisk trot dur
ing the last one-third or one-fourth of
the journey.-Orange Judd Farmer.
