TRAPS SET FOR ANGLERS.
Singular and Unexpected Method Of
Enforcing the Game Laws I'm
New Hampshire.

4 young New York fisherman who
went into northern New Hampshire to
try his luck early last summer ran
across a new way Of enforcing game
laws. The New Hampshire statutes
make 1t an offense to have in ones pos
session a trout under six inches in
length, but the New Yorker didn't know
this, says the Sun.
He was returning by train from a good
days sport, when the conductor, after
taking up his ticket. strolled back and
started a conversation. He asked the
fisherman what luck he'd had, and finally
asked to see the catch.
The conductor looked long and care
fully at the fish. Finally he said:
young man, I'm a game warden Of
this state, an some o. them fish are
under size. I'll have to asu them"
And measure them he did, finding that
I'VE were under length. II cost the young
ster $25 and costs to settle the bill with
the state. and a part Of that sum went
to the game warden conductor.
The fisherman didn't know the trick
Of the native, who, when he hauls out a
trout that's under length. cuts OF the
tail and dehes the warden to tell how
long II was when caught.

The matter of feed is OF
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemiai
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. It is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

This newspaper has no jealousy of
the sister town OF Houston. We re
ioice with its good people on its final
accomplishment Of that for which
they have been working for fifty
years, the new railroad connecting
them with the world 1t large.
Every dollars worth Of improve
ment made by our friends st Houston
adds just that much to the grand total
Of Chickasaw county, and we are
earnest in the hope that Houston may
push forward and become one of the
large and prosperous towns Of the
state. It's people are enterprising,
and the present activity and determi-
nation shown by them is worthy Of
every possible return.
Cbickasaw county is big edough and
rich enough and old enough to sus-
tain two larpe prosperous towns,
There is not the slightest reason why
the upbuilding of Houston should be
envied by the people of this side OF
the county, by the people of okolona.
If Okolona would become larger it
must get its people united for that
purpose the same as the people of
Houston are united, and for future
development. This is a matter entire
with the people of Okolona. Houston
people seem determined to do some
thing in the way Of adding new enter
prises to their business interests and
we are glad to see them 81 active.
We would also be equally az glad to
see Okolona take on a spell Of the
same kind ofnew life, and shall be az
proud to encourage them when such a
day arrives BE we are to encourage
Houston now.
The fact is that our neighbor is do
ing fine work, We have it on good
authority that several new industrial
enterprises are fairly under way
enough in fact, which If one half o.
them are realized certainties, vii
insure to that town q population equa
TO that of our own at the present
time.
The fact that the Mobile & 0hiC
Railroad people are making lasting
improvements in their already extern
sive yards at this point, should be in
spring TO us locally and sugges
that the time is at hand for OkolonI
to set also. A double tract will soor
be laid between this city and Shannon
and other needed yard facilities added
This means that we may have add.
tional reasons for immediate actor
toward making Of OkOlOna q NOR
industrial and active trade centsi
than it has ever been before.
As the wife OF husband are usually
about what the running mate mat,
makes them, go the town is abou
what its people make It. Few hsvl
