Portland, Me-, April 1-Sebago Lake

somewhat unusual condition, and fish

possible after the open time on salmon

night.
The first fish, a five pound salmon,
was reported to have been landed by
f. l.. Shaw of Portland, while the larg-
est fish up to noon, a nine pound SAL
mon, was captured by a Mr.. Strout of
Portland. Mr.. Shaw also caught five
fish, the largest weighing six pounds.

contrary to The usual conditions at
this date, and the casting for the first
fish was watched with great interest.

One of the most popular sports in
Maine, salmon fishing on the Penob-
scot Is slowly becoming a lost pleas
ure. Dams have made it hard for the
salmon to reach the spawning grounds
far up river, poachers have greatly de-
pleted the supply, the black bass have
eaten the young fry by the millions
and the pulp mills along the river have
added their injurious chemicals to the
water. The silver sided, pinlimeated
fish detests polluted water and the
number returning to the Penobscot

Old anglers and students of the sal

Washington, April Three factions
of the House committee on public lands
today pulled and hauled at the admin
istration bill for the withdrawal Of
public lands for conservation purposes.
Republicans from public land states,
who object to any, change in the pub
lie land policies. and Republicans, who
are followers of the modern conserva-
tion program, could not come to an
agreement as between the two bills.
In the end the Democrats denounced
both measures as being designed to
give the present and past administra-
tions clean bills of health in relation
to the conduct of the land laws They
then introduced bill of their own.
The Republicans were divided in sup
port Of the bill introduced in the Sen
ate by Nelson which would give the
President absolute authority to with
draw public lands for conservation
purposes or classification, and the bill
introduced in the House by Pickett of
Iowa, which would accomplish the
same purpose and in addition validate
all past Withdrawals. Both measures
would provide that the Withdrawals
remain in force until revoked.
1t was reported tonight that Pickett
consented to the elimination of that
portion of his bill which specifically
would validate past Withdrawals.
A statement issued by the Demo-
cratic members says their bill au-
thorizes the President to make with
drawals of public lands for classified
ton and other purposes, requires re-
ports to be made to Congress of with
drawals and provides for the classified
ton of withdrawing lands.

The Corporation Tax Law
Will Be Amended.
Employees Liability Law Passes
Senate as Amended.
Freight Rate Fight in Final Stages
In the Supreme Court.

Washington. April THAT the corr
poration tax law will be amended to
restrict the operation of its publicity
feature was virtually assured today
when the House slightly amended
provision previously adopted by tire
Senate for that purpose. As passed by
the. House today. the law bearing on
this subject provided that "All corpor
alton tax returns shall be open to in
spection only upon the order of the
President under rules and regulations
to be prescribed by the secretary of
the treasury and approved by the
President"
AS previously provided by the Sen
ate, such corporation tax reports were
to be made public when called for by
reason of the Senate or House of Rep
resentatves or upon the order of the
President when he deems it for the
public interest"
The Senate and House conferees will
soon meet in an effort to agree upon a
publicity amendment to which the
views of both branches will be har-
mOnized.
The consideration Of this measure
caused an animated discussion which
consumed the entire session Of the
House today.
Just before the subject was disposed
of, F'itzberald of New York, attempted
to nave a direct vote upon a motion to
| recommit the bill under consideration
with instructions to the committee on
appropriations to report it with an
amendment repeating the Payne Aid :

London, April e.-Colonel Theodore
Roosevet's speech before the students of
the University Of Egypt at Cairo last
Monday continues a meaty subject for the
editorial writers of the London newspa-
pers Today the weekend journals take
it up with avidity but their opinions on 1t
are extremely diverse. The incursion of
Col. Roosevelt into Egyptian politics has
displeased the Liberal organs, but 1t Is
appla by those of the Conservatives,
which contend that the British policy in
Egypt is weakened.
The Saturday Review says: Though
Col. Roosevelt rushed into the Egyptian
problem he has not, at any rate, spoken
like q fool, but had he had an idea of the
extreme delicacy of the position in
Egypt he would have kept upon safer
ground. 1t is to his credit, however, that,
having Numbered in, he blundered out
again in the right direction
The Spectator says 1t is surprised to
see a speech so wise and so honorable to
the man who made it characterized by
the Westminster Gazette as an indiscre-
ton, and thinks that all good men should
welcome the wholesome doctrine it con-
tained.
The Outlook also considers Col Roose-
welt touched upon tender ground. It says,
however, that the movement for Egyptian

FLAX STRAW
IS GOOD FEED

North Dakota Agricultural College,
Extension Department, Oct. IT, 1910.
Fargo, N. D.
The following inquiry and it's an
swer contains information that will
prove of interest and value to many:
Dear Sir: A great many of our far.
mers have fax that mas grown ul
since the rain. This is green and
some Of them are cutting it for hay.
Others, however, are not doing so az
they are afraid it will not be good for
the stock. do not know whether the
Agricultural college has had any ex-
perience in this line or not, but Il
on have, wish you would kindly let
me know whether it is worth cutting
or not, and oblige. l will publish YOUR
reply in our local paper for the in
formation of our farmers.
Would there be anything about this
kind of hay that would hurt the stock.
Yours truly,
Dear sir: There is a great deal Of
feeding value in green flax and your
farmers should cut it for hay and save
it this season when prices are high
and roughage is scarce. The degree
OF maturity which flax reaches gov
erns the feeding value OF it, but 1t is
all worth cutting and curing.
The idea is very common that flax Is
injurious to live stock Some fear
tnat tHc> strands of linen fibre in it
will interfere with the digestion, while
others believe that the seed of fax
will have a bad effect on their ami
ra!s.
The idea of the linen fibre making
ironnle is notion only. The flax seed
will hurt live stock if fed in large
quantities, but if given in moderate
| amounts, it will cause them no incon-
yience, and even if fed in larger guam
titles, when the animals have become
accustomed to it, will do no harm.
At the Iowa experiment station they
fed pure ripe flax seed in quantities an
large as 8 pounds per 1000 pound COW
per day without causing any trouble
whatever. Several of the COWS drop
ped healthy calves during and after
the feeding trial.
Yours truly,
(Signed), J. H. Shepperd.
