Will Recommend
Change in Game Law

Z
The Post-1ntelligencer says that
game wardens in the state Of Wash
ington, in obedience to numerous pro-
tests against the unnecessary, and,
in some instances, wanton slaughter
OF game of certain kinds, will urge
the next legislature to strengthen
the laws on this subject. Limitations
on deer hunting, shorter open sea-
son for duck hunting, and law for
the protection of brant and geese
during the spring, are among the
changes urged.
with respect to deer hunting,
two changes have been suggested,
one limiting the numberlof deer each
hunter may kill during a season to
two, instead of four, and the other
preventing the use OF dogs by deer
hunters.
There is 20 reason why the hunt
ers of Washington should wish to ex-
terminate the game of this state; if
they fully realized what the loss would
mean to them they would probably
limit their own operations in advance
of additional restrictive legislation on
he subject. But If more stringent
avs are needed because many hunt
RS are not as regardful Of the real
meaning Of the present situation as
hey should be, such laws should be
assed
The game Of Washing ton must not
wantonly destroyed. Such Q thing
,ould be crime against the state,
md no decent hunter, or decent citi-
en-, will sanction any practice which
i'll bring about this result"

The sorS( Mammal
Pest in United States

A farmers bulletin (No. 29D on
Methods of Destroying Rats" and
which may be obtained by anyone up
on application to the secretary ofag-
riculture, gives some of the reasons
other than sanitary for waging an
incessant warfare upon these destruc-
tive and dangerous pests. The,bulle-
tin saws:
1.-THE brown or Norway rat (Mus nor
vegicus) is the worst mammal pest in the
United States, the losses from its depre-
dations amounting to many millions of
dollars yearly-to more, indeed, than
the losses from all other injurious MAN.
mails combined. In addition to its de-
structive habits, this rat is now known to
be an active agent in disseminating infec-
tious diseases, 2 fact which renders meas
ures for its destruction donbly important.
introduced into America about the
year 1775, the brown rat has supplanted
and nearly exterminated it's less robust
relative. the black rat, and despite the in
cessant warfare Of man has extended its
range and steadily increased in numbers.
Its dominance is due to its great fecundity
and its ability to adapt itself to all sorts
of conditions. 1t breeds three or four
times a year and produces from to 12,
and, even more, young at litter. Young
females breed when only or months
old. The species is practically omniver-
Gus, feeding upon all kinds Of animal and
vegetable matter. 1t makes it's home in
the open field, the hedge row, and the
river bank, as well as in stone walls,
piers, and all kinds of buildings. 1t de-
stroys grains when newly planted, while
growing, and in the shock, stack, NOW,
crib, granary, mill, elevator. or ships
hold, and also in the bin aud feed trough.
1t invades store and warehouse and de-
stroys fur, laces, silks, carpets, leather
goods, and groceries. It attacks fruits.
vegetables, and meats in the mark cts, and
destroys by pollution ten times as much
as it actually eats. It carries disease
germs from house to house and bubonic
plague from city to city. It causes dis
astrous CONGREGATIONS; floods houses by
gnawing lead water pipes; ruins artificial
ponds and embankments by burrowing:
destroys the farmers pigs. eggs and
young poultry; eats the eggs and young
Of song ann game birds; and damages
foundati ms. floors, doors, and furnish
ings of dwellings"

DR.. Th!rkield has raised for the uni

nothing OF value. And on this point
the people feel that he has failed.
This may be a premature judgment.
It may be heaping upon the shoulders
OF an innocent man more than belongs

that headship carries responsibility;
praise and condemnation are It's com

himself before the onward rush OF

That this view Is taken does not indi
cate a misfortune or fault. but sig.

destiny.
In such struggle as this one, all
should not be condemnation, for
man in such a plight as this deserves
our pity. But man is an end not

Copper Stocks slump.

Boston, March 14.-In eloquent trib- ute to the influence of Wall street on the Boston change, panicky conditions prevailed in the local market for cop per stocks to-day. Trading was in heavy volume, and brokers were flood ed with orders to sell Fries broke sharply and continued to decline throughout the day, closing at the low est.
 Rates on money rose generally to ten per cent.
 Declines of from five to twenty points were recorded in the leading coppers. Trinity was one of the fea- tures of the local market. It withstood the storm until about noon, and then dropped to 19 IA, loss of nearly sev- en points, recovering fractionally at the close. In many eases the selling was in default of a response to remar- gin calls sent out last night. The is- sues that suffered most severely were Osceola, off 20 to 13O North Butte, off 15 S-4 to 7S; Copper Range, off g 1-2 to 73 1-2 Utah, off 12 to 51; Quincy, off 1-2 to 116; Tamarack, off Il to 112; Butte Coalition, off 3-4 to 23.

RICH BLOOD THE SECRET OF HEAL I'll.
Druggist Wm. H. Hull Strongly Recommends Vii nol for the Blood.

The blood should have ninety-fve per cent. red corpuscles. With less amount come weakness, sickness and suffering
 We see every day on our streets many people whose faces plainly show impure, impoverished blood.
 " We want everybody in New Haven to know that Vinol purifes, vitalizes and enriches the blood, increases the red corpuscles and creates strength.
 This is because Vinol contains in a highly concentrated form all the medi- cinal, blood making and body building elements of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods' livers, the useless oil eliminated, and tonic iron, a needful constituent for the blood, added.
 We guarantee Vinol will purify and enrich the blood, create strength and build up every rundown person in New Haven, or return the money in every case where it fails" Hulls Cor ner Drug Store.
 Note.-While we are the sole agents for Vinol in New Haven, it is now for sale at the leading drug store in nearly every town and city in the country Look for the Vinol agency in your town.
