David Davies, in the Pittsburg Dis
patch, has the following to say about
Jack Flynn, of this city:
From Washington comes the state
ment that Jack Flynn intends trying
again for the first-base berth on the
Pittsburg team. Jack is quoted as say
ing that he has recovered from the
physical ailment which troubled him
last year, and that he intends giving
Hunter and Kading a run for the honor
There are lots of people in Pittsburg
who would like to see Flynn make
good. Jack won his way into most
hearts by his hard hitting. The fans
were sorry when his fielding fell off so
lamentably."

DETROIT, Feb. 4.-Matty Mcintyre,
the veteran outfielder, recently sold by
the Detroit club to Chicago. was here
today on his way to Hot Springs fol
some preliminary training He said he
intended to get the earliest start he
ever did in his life, and hoped 1t would
be the best one. He declines to take
stock in the idea that he has gone back
any. The change in allegiance suits him
very well.

CHRONIC
INDICATE BAD BLOOD

Wherethe blood is pure any wound
or laceration of the flesh heals "by
first intention" This is true be-
cause nature has provided a constit-
uent to the circulation known as
Plasma, which joins and holds the
place together until the fibres and
tissues can permanently knit and
Intervene. Whenever the ulcer be-
comes chronic it is because this
healing quality of the blood has been
impaired by some impurity in the
circulation, and the place remains
open, injecting all surrounding
flesh, until the character of the cir
Icu1ation is changed. No sore can
heal where the blood is bad; be-
cause the morbid impurities on
which it thrives are constantly de-
posted into it by the burdened cir
Iculation. Cleanse the blood and the
sore will heal of its own accord, be-
cause then its very source and foun-
ldation will have been destroyed.

There is no reason for the excitement
over the report that Washington is to

and he is now under reservation, but
there is no intention of bringing him
here at once. Gill will start the season

UPWARD MOVEMENT IN FARM
LANDS.


The advance in values OF farm lands
which has been making itself felt in
different parts OF the country has
reached Vermont. There is no boom IN
property Of this kind but manifestly
there is quickensd movement, which
is making itself manifest all along the
line This is particularly true of lands
in localities that can he used for sum
mer residences. and other property
naturally shares in the movement
1t may be helpful in this connec-
ton to note the way in which the up
ward trend in farm values has oper-
ated elsewhere. A Des Moines CORES
pendent Of the New York Post says
that there is steady demand for good
farm lands, and there is no break in
prices; but the tendency to borrow
heavily and invest In lands is no long
er evident, Whatever of speculation
there was to this land craze in the
Middle West has disappeared,
This getting back to normal con-
ditions has come about gradually and
has been due largely to the attitude
of the bankers and the insurance com
panies in refusing to lend money ex-
tensively, raising interest rates, and
dscouraging too much land invest
ment
The advance in land values in the
past ten years has been so rapid I'D

TIE OrEN AND CLOSE SEASON FOR
GAME.


one woulG naturally conclude that
laws stating when close and open sea-
sons for game were to begin would
be comparatively free from doubt, hut
as matter of fact no little trouble
he's arisen IN this connection. For ex-
ar'ple, If :, law says that an open sea-
son shall lie between the flrst day Of
September and the first day of Novem-
ber' Is the first day OF September in
says that a close season shall extend
from the FIRST day of October to De-
cember 81. are both days named in
cluded i'm the open season? If tbs
open season is to ''hegin September IS
and end September 80" are the two
dates named in the open or closed
season?
4 bulletin issued by the United
states department of agriculture's
biological survey pays a marked
tribute to the wisdom of Vermont's
course in connection with the inter-
probation of dates in cases like those
quoted. After speaking of the Gus
tom in different States the bulletin
says:
"a much more convenient SYSTEM
adopted by Vermont is to include in
the laws a definite rule of interpreta
tlon of seasons. Thus Vermont pro-
vides that 'if an act Is prohibited be
tween two dates the prohibition shall
include the first but not the last date"
and the Northwest Territories pro-
vide that the period of close seasons
shall include the first date but not the
provision makes the dates exclusive,
and hence. while obviating uncertain
ty. does not permit the use Of a form
by which they can be reversed to show
the opposite season.
The general adoption of the Yer
mont plan would secure uniformity,
certainty. and convenience, and it has
the additional advantage of requiring
the least change in the present form
tation; for the words most commonly
used in stating game season are be-
tween-and and while there are diff
ferences of Interpretation of these
terms by different States. yet the GUS
tom of including the first date and ex-
Guiding the last is more general than
any other The principle underlying
this plan has the support of several
decisions Of state courts in regard to
computation of time under the laws
Thus In a New York decision It YVES
stated that as general thing, in
computing statute time, the first daN
is included and the last excluded
And finally, it may he stated that tn,
plan suggested is directly analogous
to the rule of computation of time for
other purposes found in many of the
state codes and also TO the rules o.
construction of words and phrase!
found in practically all codes and II
several of the general game laws"
Il is no secret IN IT the decisions o
Vermont courts are held in high es
, TEEN throughout the country, and il Il
rcassurins also n note that Vernon
, laws are quoted in other STAGES, as ex
amples OF wisdom in the making o
laws.

John w. Titcomb, commissioner Of

laudable purpose Of putting that de-
