The old-fashioned way of dosing weak

pointed out this error. This is why his

Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach,

then those orglns must surely falter.

More About the State Game Law.
onday, August %, 1909.

Editor Banner: Your local editor, an enthusi-
astic supporter of the Game Commission having
invited criticism of the State Game law, can hardly
take exception to adverse comment hence | shall
venture few observations.
With many others, | was loud in applause when
the public prints first announced the enactment of
the law, but the full text of the law as inter-
preted by the commission began to unfold the ap-
pause changed by degrees until it has now reached
absolute opposition, except it shall be amended
as to conform to what | think needs in the
way of game protection.
The law was inspired by the demand of the sport
of the State for the protection of the game and
for the benefit of those who find pleasurable recre
alton with rod and gun, but it appears to have been
written by sentmentalists, without practical knowl
edge, that gained by Audubon Society lore,
and further without regard to the heavy tax it
entails.
To illustrate the tax feature, take my case. |
have five boys old enough to hunt Hence, my
license tax is 30 cents per month; that u.s. if allow
the boys to take their barrel gun out to shoot
a squirrel or rabbit.
Again, the poor negroes, than whom we can get
no better labor, are practically deprived of a
favorite privilege that of hunting the and
opossum, which affords large per cent of their
food supply, the effect Of which is to increase the
exodus of labor best suited to climate and
alluvia lands.
The game law would be alright if the limitations
it prescrbes were directed toward the protection of
the real game of the State deer, turkey, quail,
perch. trout of the fresh water and similar game
fish of the salt water and finally, to graduate the
license tax to cover the actual needs OF the COM
mission, economically expended. Yours truly

The Roads of Our Parish
Now i'm Excellent Condition

Riley plantation and thence to the Fos-
ter plantations, were afforded an excel
lent view of both the good roads and ex-
cellent crops, which are now almost
ready for the harvest. Another notice
able feature was the number Of rural
route boxes found along almost every
road, this showing one of the great ad-
vantages Of public highways, prompt
and efficient mail service for the rural
lists. Having gone through the bottom
lands, VAUDEVILLE was approached in a
roundabout way and the party turned
its cars toward Benton, where a short
stop was made. After several other
stops, when some excellent views of the
roads we're taken By the party's 'staff
photographer" Avalon Farm, the place
of L. C. Buckley, was reached.
Avalon Farm affords one of the best
examples of what can be done for the
public highways Of Bossier. Mr.. Bulk
ley has constructed a five-eights mile
stretch of road leading from the public
road to his home, which is smooth, level
and in excellent condition. He informed
members of the party yesterday that
this road had been built at an average
cost of 500 mile. With all the roads
in Bossier placed on parity with Mr..
Bulkley's private highway, an auto
could be driven through the entire parish
at an average speed of fifteen to twenty
miles an hour.
On the other hand, however, the roads
Of Bossier show considerable work and
that parish, according to those who have
been over a greater portion OF the State,
may we'll claim to have one of the best
systems Of roads in the State. Several
times during the day twenty-five miles
an hour was made.
All of the highways give evidence OF
having received attention at the hands
of the Police Jury and in spite OF the
dry weather there was little dust or in

From Mondays Shreveport Times.
Good roads of Bossier Parish we're
examined by party of Shreveport
autoists yesterday, when over 11S miles
of excellent highways were traversed by
a party gathered at the instance Of S. H.
Bolinger, and which is intended TO be
the first of number cross country trips
promoted to insrease interest in the
movement Of better roads for. North
Louisiana.
The party left Shreveport yesterday
morning and, passing through the bot
toms and hill lands near the Cotton Belt
Railroad, went as far north as Bolinger.
When they returned to Shreveport
last night it was shown that over lis
miles had been covered during the day,
and this after number of stops and
rests.
The trip was planned by S. H. Bolin-
ger OF Shreveport and l.. C. Buckley OF
Avalon Farm, Bossier Parish, both OF
whom are numbered among the foremost
good roads enthusiasts OF this section.
1t is said that the three automobiles
used yesterday covered territory on
which an automobile has never before
run, and the fact that the entire distance
was covered without mishap, and the
run from Avalon Farm to Shreveport
thirty-fou miles-was made after dark
goes to show the excellent condition Of
the highways in Bossier Parish.
All in the party yesterday declared
the roads reaching out of Benton tt
Avalon Farm and thence through the
hills to Plain Dealing and Bolinger are
easily the best within a days run O
Shreveport.
With some slight improvements, thu
system Of roads in Bossier Parish coult
easily be made among the best in thu
South, the soil, both in the bottoms an'
hills, being especially adapted to thu
building of good roads.

thirty-fou mile run in about two and
three-quarter hours of actual operation
of the cars. This record being made
over the roads of Bossier Parish, through
both the hill and bottom lands after
nightfall, speaks for the highways of
Bossier in more flattering manner than
could anything else.
Members of the party were highly
pleased with the trip when they reached
the city last night. The roads of Bos-
sier Parish were a revelation to many,
and with the possible exception Of
Messrs. Bolinger and Buckley, none had
known that such a delightful run was
possible for the Shreveport automobile
lists, the route through Bossier being
pronounced the best possible ride out of
Shreveport.
Efforts are being made to organize a
number of additional tours throughout
North Louisiana, the project having
been launched to promote a greater in
terest in the good roads movement and
to get the owners Of automobiles in
Shreveport behind the movement for
better roads in Caddo Parish and North
Louisiana.
The trip was successful in every detail.
| That Bossier Parish has an excellent
system of roads was demonstrated be-
yond all doubt, and those making the
trip yesterday expect to organize an
other tour in short time, when a
greater number of cars will be found in
the procession, which is aimed to lead
toward better roads for all Of North
Louisiana.
