Mr.. Dlngleys bill regarding fur seals
ia in effect the same measure which
was advocated by Postmaster General
Wilson In the house. Its chief feature
provides for negotiations with Eng
land, France and Japan to procure
protection for the senis, and IN the
event such negotiations are unsuc-
cessful, It authorized the secretary OF
the treasury to kill nil the seals ON the
Prlbilof Islands and sell 'he skins.
During tho last year the number OF
sealing vessels was doubled ana the
polaglc catch IN the Behring son lione
was i4.l69 sldns, not counting the young
seals which starved to death. Unless
very vigorous measures are taken for
their protection. the total determination
of the seals Is only question o. few
years. and the threatened destruction
Of the trade is sufficient to warrant
the Kill or cure remedy proposed.

he bought in Utah. To News reporter
he said:
Every one of my 100 trees is laden
with fruit. Out OF the 1000 planted in
the spring have lost so by either defects
