BOY HAS PLAN TO FEED HORSES.
Automatic Labor-SaVing Device Is the
Work of Fourteen-Year-Old.

NiddlebOrO. Mass.-One Of the most
unfoue displays in the home work de-
Dartment at the recent exhibition Civ
on bv the pupils of the public schools
was the automatic horse feeder made
bv Arthur Ripley, a 14-year-old high
school student Visiting teachers and
sunerintendents were much interest
ed in this Iabor-saving device, and the
vouDg electrician was kept busy dur
ing the exhibition explaining his feed
er and demonstrating its usefulness.
IT consisted of a large box with two
Dartitions Tor the different kinds OF
grain. the bottom of which was hung
on hinges. A lever which held the
bottom in position was connected with
the alarm gear of a common alarm
clock. which was put in a small box
on the side of the grain receptacle.
The time Of the clock in front CORE
sDonded with the time on the clock in
side the box.
The alarm is set at the time the
horses are to be fed, and the farmer
could then go about his other work,
and at the proper time the alarm
would go off, releasing the lever and
droDping the bottom of the box, which
allowed the grain to fall into the
manger in front Of the horse. A small
electric light is attached to the upper
side of the clock box, which shows the
farmer where the box is without a
lantern. so that the possibility of set
TING fire to the barn is averted. Each
day the box is filed with grain and
The lever adjusted.

Bird hunters too, will find a plethora Of new
game laws to assimilate before taking to the
wilds. Ducks the most favored class of
feathered bipeds in the grist of this years legis
lation. California absolutely prohibits cunning
for them. Colorado reduces from one hundred 70
fifty the number allowed in possession at one
time. and Connecticut fOrbids spring shooting
OF all water fowl Maine will hereafter allow
only ten ducks To be taken out of the state. and
these or fewer can be exported only upon pay

Quail are to have increased protection In Ten

parts Of Oregon they cannot be hunted until

Kansas prohibit cunning for European par

attract many American gunners.
The fast disappearing wild turkey so highly
esteemed for Thanksgiving and Christmas din
ners, can no longer be hunted in Colorado. while
other protective measures are provided by Illi-
nois and Texas The thinning of the prairie
chickens ranks has caused Texas to forbid their
hunting for seven and Missouri for three years

tecttve laws more strict; but here again Ontario

Massachusetts provides for buying on Martha s
Vineyard lands TO be used a state preserve for
the heath hen. and sets aside part of Middle

vides for the setting aside of private lands as
game preserves. Pennsylvania establishes in It's
forest reservations state game preserves, which
are TO be nine miles in circumference and twen-
ty-fVe miles apart. y perpetual close season
for both game and birds is to be proclaimed in
each, and those who enter with either guns or
dogs may abandon hope Of escaping heavy
penalty. No will be allowed even TO enter
them in the close season for game. Alberta prov
ince also establishes two game preserves.

SAVING ANTELOPE. MOOSE AND ELK

Our antelope come in for some much needed
protection. They cannot be hunted anywhere in
: Nebraska from now on Indefinitely. and S1oo IS
the penalty attached. while Texas will give the
same absolute protection until 1912 and Utah
until 1911. Colorado establishes close seasons
for them and Manitoba gives complete protec-
ton to females. Colorado establishes close sea-
sons for both sexes. Antelope hunters may
however, find a new opening in Montana, Wilch
now opens a season from September 10 De-
cembCr !.
Moose cannot be shot at any time in Wiscon-
sin hereafter according To this years law. ana
Manitoba gives complete protection to females
Up in Nova Scotia moose hunting is 10 be al
lowed only during October and November, eN-
cept Cape Breton Island. where II IS 10 De
forbidden entirely until 1919
Elk hunting is hereafter forbidden in Utah
until 1911, and Colorado has extended the same
absolute protection to the same year, Naii-
TOBIAS new law protects all females. and Alberta
establishes close seasons for all. The threatened
determination of these noble quadrupeds mas
been due largely To ''tusk' tantler) hunters. and
the biological survey. intrusted with the prosecu-
ton of illegal interstate commerce in game has
in the last year cOnfiscated scores OF elk tusks
Wyoming. especially, has lately suffered in this
way. despite its close season and export limita-
tons for these animals, and its Legislature re-
Gently memorialized the Benevolent and Protec-
tive order of Eks to discourage the use of
elk antlerS among its members.
The mountain sheep another victim of the
vandal, cannot be hunted until 1911 in Utah and
1872 in Texas, according to this years laws,
while Colorado has extended its absolute pro-
lection for four more years. and Alberta has de-
cided to keep up the bars until 1909, not only
for mountain sheep, but for mountain goats. The
caribou also receives increased protection from
this year onward IN the Canadian provinces.
Newfoundland prohibits hunting on a certain
region Grand Lake, where many American
gunneTS have lately gone, and Manitoba forbids
the hunting OF female caribou. In Nova Scotia
the sale Of caribou is forbidden until 1910.
Our fast vanishing buffalo cannot be hunted
hereafter in Manitoba, of the last hunting
grounds left. In New York an attempt TO aid
in preserving this noble creature failed this year

NEW LAWS AFFECTING DEER.

Deer hunters will find themselves confronted
by vertabe labyrinth Of laws passed this year
In Vermont hereafter every killing a deer
must exhibit the head to the nearest deputy
game warden or be nicely fined for his negli-
gence- Wisconsin prohibits the bounding of
deer and the possession of dogs in hunting or
lumber camps within the deer country. Maine
New-York tribune., 1907-10-13

limits each lumber camp to six deer a season and
individual residents te one a season. Nebraska
forbidS deer hunting Indefinitely on penalty Of
500 fine and Tennessee until 1911. North Caro-
counties, and Wisconsin indefinitely in thirtySiN
counties. Maine gives increased protection in
certain localities. and Texas reduces the bag
limit to three deer a season. Pennsylvania S
new law, passed this summer, prohibits the
shooting of any except male deer with horns that
can be plainly seen. \ doe. fawn CT spike buck
cannot be llilled-Ony bucks whose horns are
developed. This law is expected to protect man
kind we'll the deer, since statistics show
that hundreds of men killed in the woods by
nervous hunters. who on seeing the brush move
blaze away at 1t and thus increase the corCner's
business vastly. Greater care will be taken
certain that their target is a male deer with
horns.
Good news for the deer hunter comes, how
ever from New Hampshire. where the season has
been opened in the southern half of the state;
from Montana, where the season has been
heightened fifteen days; from New York where
the season viii open two weeks earlier or on
September l6: from Oregon, where male deer
may be shot after July u. instead of August -.
ana from South Carolina. where the season has
been heightened in Dorchester County
ttahs new law permits residents TO shoot
TWO deer each in October. but non residents are
not permitted 10 shoot them at any time.
Deer have become a nuisance to farmers in
some states where herds come out OF the woods
and destroy crops. BVcoic citizens who have
thus suffered entertain small respect for the
protection laws. For their relief special Iegis-
lation has this year been passed in Rhode ISL
Brunswick. permitting deer to he shot for the
protection Of crops. In Rhode Island crops can
thus be protected only under permit Of the Sec
retary Of State. while Vermont provides for the
New Brunswick permits the Of shotguns in
protecting crops.
