Maine's Fish and Game Laws Made
Plain by Man Who Il nows Them.
For more years than the average man
cares to remember the candid and
thoughtful sportsmen who go a hunting
and fishing in the woods and lakes OF
Maine have been at loss to know just how
they should conduct themselves while
after fish and game, and still get as much
sport as possible without violating the
law.
or course the enactments relating to
ifs and game have been published by the
State at the close OF every session OF the
Legislature. but this valuable little book
was SO full OF legal phraseoIogy and the
acts were capable OF two or more interpre-
tations, SO that a man must needs be
lawyer in order to fully understand the
bearing OF an act upon given case.
While the acts were carefully drawn
and strongly worded they required he
decision OF the supreme court in order to
develop their full significance. These
decisions were rendered from time to
time, published in the papers and then
forgotten. mere WIS sucn tHH8lt vi
opinions and such a warfare of words
over some vnypd cases that an honest
man began to feel a- il he must consult a
LAWYER befur. he started out on hunting
expedition.
While the sons OF Nimrod were wan
derlnp about in a haze OF doubt, Moses
arose and led them from the wilderness
to a land of light and absolute knowledge.
The name of this modern Moses Is hon.
l.. T. Carleton, chairman OF the Maine
fish and game commissioners, good law
yerand one of he brightest men in Maine.
The WAY Mr.. Carleton did 1t was by pub
fishing a little book which discusses all
of these vexed subjects, and sets the
minds OF all men at rest.
The title of Mr.. Cartoons BOOK Is
"Carleton's Digest OF the Maine flsh ana
Game Laws, 1897. 1t is really the hand
lest and most understandable book on
fish and game laws ever published. IL Is
the very thing that was wanted Every
nublic law relating to fish and game OF
Maine is given. Then in footnote Mr..
Carleton discusses he debatable questions
involved in the different acts, and states
what man may do and may not do In
given instance. MIR. Carleton deserves
the thanks OF all true sportsmen.

The bulletin of the State board OF agri-

Will do well. My calves that are to be-
come cows are fed skinned milk and hay
during he first winter. The second year,
II hay Is abundant, | feed plenty of hay
but no grain. When hay is scarce | feed
some cottonseed meal. This year / am
feeding cottonseed alone to my COWS,
from two to four quarts per day. 1t Is a
cheap ration and they are doing well 50
far, and am watching them closely for
any bad effects from it. In answer to the
question OF feeding coarse fodder, would
say that prefer to feed at night. 1t Will
be eaten up before morning. VIII you
please give me in the bulletin, the analysis
or feeding value of ripe, hard squashes?
H. b. GRAY.
INote-The question of the feeding value of
squashcs was referred to the Experiment station
mt Orono, and We have received the following
reply; LAS prepared for use for the table
squash carries SIS per cent water; IA per cent
protein, per cent fat; 9per cent carbohydrates;
IS per cent ash. AS whole squash would in
cude seeds, should suppose tnat it would be
between squash and pumpkin, so far as the few
anal Uses which have been made show, is in
water misunderstanding
PENoBsCOT-The fields have not looked
so poor in this section for forty years as
they do now. 1t looks now as If the hay
crop for another year must be small. |
have commenced to cut my coarse fodder,
straw, corn stalks and coarse hay, and
mix some middllngs or meal with it, and

shall continue this through the winter.
We have no silos in this section, SO we
have to feed our coarse fodder dry, and |
think, with what experience | have had,
that by cutting it fine and mixing with
meal or any ground feed we can winter
very much more stock. n. F. NORTON.
ELLsWoRTH-Stock feeding has been
quite a question the past season. Owing
to dry pastures, we have had to provide
other forage for cattle. We do not de-
pend so much on pasture feed as we used
to. In late years we have sown oats and
peas for summer feed for our stock. This
year we soYed largo piece of oats and
peas as soon as We could get onto the
ground to work. This gave us very early
feed. Later on we sowed a like piece,
after the first piece was cut off We

Their Disagreement Over n Patrol
Call AmicnbIy Adjusted.
An amicable settlement of the recent
controversy between the Metropolitan Po-
lice Department and the Washington HUI
name Society over the use of a patrol
wagon by the latter has been effected. The
trouble was the outcome OF call for
patrol wagon made one day by John Reip-
linger, an agent Of the society, who, It
is claimed, should not have taken such
action, as he had arrested a small boy sew
eral blocks from the Eighth precinct sta
ton, which might readily have been
reached on foot. A. S. Pratt, President of
the Humane Society, expressed regrets to
the Commissioners that there should have
been any trouble over the matter.
We instruct our agents" explained
President Pratt, Ito be courteous to those
with whom they may have to deal, not only
to officers and employees of the Govern
ment, but all others with whom they come
in contact, and this is the first complaint
that has been made TO us from the police
authorities. We have very strongly en-
phasized 10 Mr.. Reiplinger that he is here
after not to lose sight OF his subordinate
relation to the Police Department"
detailed report regarding the patrol
wagon affair, prepared by Agent Reiplin-
missioners by the Humane Society. Com
menting upon this report President Pratt
said:
Mr.. Reiplinger regrets having replied
as he did TO the stationkeeper and also
regrets that he was not given an opportu-
nifty to be heard by the Police Department
before complaint reached the press of the
city. 1t is the wish of our society to
work in harmony with the police and we
allowed our society in the prosecution of
its work.
Regarding the request for the use OF
patrol wagons, Major Sylvester has sug-
gested that the Humane Society be per-
mitted to make calls for the patrol wagons
when they have made arrests at long dis
tances from the stations and the parties
arrested have no conveyances in which
they might be taken to the police sta
