out OF the State. / hope we have bet
ter thinking men In the Legislature
than to pass such bill. for several
reasons: First, It would be the means
OF taking bread and meat from a great
number. OF men. women and childrcns
whose husbands and fathers know 10
other occupations; second. 1t would De
the means OF taking from this county Y
to 100000: third. II all the game that
Is killed In Virginia and North Caro-
lima Is put on the markets OF this
State. which would be the meaning ct
II. what would II bring? Nothing
comparatively. Not only so. II would
mean that the farmers would get Just
about nothing for their poultry. but
that seemed to be one great reason
for the association wanting such q
law. because game sells SO high that
they can't buy or eat 1t. I think
that very poor reason. When a man
can't eat food because It Is too high
priced he should eat cheaper food. IS
lots of we poorer people have to do. I
