FIRE PREVENTION DAY.
State of Iowa is Today Studying Best
Methods of Fire Protection.

Today is Fire Prevention Day
throughout the state of Iowa, in re-
Spouse to the proclamation of Gov
ernor Carroll, and generally over the
state the people are being taught
how to prevent fires, in the belief
that the vast loss of property and
lives by fire may be greatly decreas-
ed. All citizens should show an in
terest in this movement, and do all
in their power to aid it. One Iowa
city is circulating the following
pledge for signatures, which might
well be adopted in every community
throughout the commonwealth:
Il will keep the supply of matches
in metal boxes, and throughout the
house they shall be confined in q
proper receptacle and out of the
reach of children.
Il will use only safety matches as
far as practicable.
Il will not permit child under II
years of age to use matches.
Il will see that lamps are MOI
filled by artificial light, or after dark
THAT coal oil is kept in meta
cans and in safe place.
THAT no oily rags are left around
the premises over night, outside Of

THAT gas brackets have wire
globes over them where there is
danger of window curtains being
blown into the flame.
THAT the furnace or heating APP,
paratus is seen to before retiring, by
competent person.
That all scraps, litter, excelsior
and paper are removed or placed In
metal receptacles before nightfall.

LIABILITY PLAN Is RADICAL.
Private Insurance Companies Will
Eventually Have to- Quit Bust
ness i'm Iowa Under Pro-
posed New Law

Every insurance agency in Iowa
will be deeply interested in the ia
bility insurance feature of the bill
which will be presented to the legis-
lature this winter by the employers
liability commission. 1t is the most
radical piece of insurance legislation
ever suggested in the United States
and is designed to compel every EN-
ployer CT Iowa, eventually, to quit
the stock company liability insur-
ance and take out insurance with a
state mutual association The plan
suggested by ali members of the
commission in their report, Mr. W.
w. Baldwin alone dissenting, is SIM
liar to that now in operation in Mas
sachuSetts. 1t goes step further
and compels the Iowa employers to
join the state mutual association. In
Massachusetts, the state runs a mu-
tural indemnity association. but the
employer may elect to take his in
curance in that company or in an
outside company.
The distinguishing difference be-
tween the Massachusetts plan and
the proposed Iowa plan is the differ
ence between the German plan as
proposed for Iowa and the English
plan used in Massachusetts.
When it is optional under the pro-
posed Iowa law for an employer to
remain inside of the compensation
law or take himself out OF If, it is
not optional ii he desires 10 accept
the other desirable feature OF the
bill, TO remain outside of the indem-
nifty association. Instead it is COM
pulsory on those who take advant-
age of any provision of the proposed
law, to take part in the insurance
feature. Not only that, but it is
compulsory to insure only in the
company provided by the state in the
bill recommended, and in effect this
will eventually exclude insurance in
private stock companies in Iowa, if
the plan works as designed by its
trainers.
In order that employers of the
state will not stay outside the pro-
visions of the bill, it is provided that
those who do not are barred from
using the three chief defenses at law
against an action brought for dam
ages by an injured employs. THIS,
ii an employer remains outside of the
compensation law he is barred by
the new law from defending him
self in court by the defense known
as 1.-The fellow servant the con
tributory negligence" and the -''as-
sumption of risk" pleas. AS so per
cent of the defenses against dam
age are based on one or all of these
pleas, an employer will be practically
forced to accept the law and by ac-
cepting it accepts the compulsory
state insurance feature. Naturally,
when formed into the state mutual
indemnifying association, he will
drop his other liability insurance
and such companies will be forced
out of business in the state.

IOWA FISH AND GAME.
State Fish and Game Warden Makes
Annual Repor. to Governor.

The biennial report of State Fish
and Game Warden George A. Lincoln
of Cedar Rapids, filed with the gov
ernor, shows $1S2,029 collected in
hunters license tax in the past two
years. Prosecutions of violators of
fish and game laws have netted the
state Sill $3.50. The warden has
destroyed $500 worth of unlawful
devices for fishing and trapping.
There have been 10000 game fish
placed in the waters of the state and
millions of spawn planted. Fish have
been seined from dead waters, such
as bayous, ponds, etc, and placed in
running water to the number of 1884,
900. OF this number 100000 were
taken from overflows of the Missis-
sippi. The state has received from
border licenses, mostly Mississippi
river seine fishermen, $3,221.41.
There have been about two million
buffalo and carp taken from our fresh
, water lakes. Most of these were
buffalo. About two million garfish
have also been removed and destroy
ed. The other fish were sold.
Warden Lincoln takesa rap at the
Iowa authorities in his report. 1t is
pointed out that the courts are too
lax with law violators and that in
many cases, men who are caught yio-
| lating the game laws are given but
S fine and costs and that in many
instances the costs are suspended.
Great inroads also are being made
| in Iowa game preserves by the for
eign element, says Mr.. Lincoln.
Their instincts, brought from the
foreign countries, are to kill every
thing in sight" says the report.
Their resemblance to each other and
their unpronouncable names prevents
the making of warrants against
them"
The breaking up OF Iowa prairies
for agricultural purposes is leaving
few resorts for native game birds,
says Mr.. Lincoln. They are emigrat-
ing further west and in few years
there will be no place for them to
nest. This is particularly true of the
prairie chickens and grouse. I'm
ported game birds which have been
brought into the state appear to be
doing very well. Mr.. Lincoln does
not believe that Iowa ever will attain
III uCu ulSllHCtlOu DIS d great Sdulc vi u
state. Hunters now go into the
fields and woods and clean up more
birds in one day than they used to
get in week. The advent of the
auto has had much to do with the
game devastation, in the opinion of
Mr. Lincoln.
Thousands of game fish persisted
in Iowa streams and bayous last year
because of low water, according to
Mr.. Lincoln's report. In some places
the water in the lakes was to low
last winter that it froze to the
ground. killing many fish.
The cleaning of Iowa lakes and
rivers from obnoxious fish, which is
allowed under permit, is going to be
a big factor in restoring good fishing
in the state, in the opinion of the
state game warden. Last year 1927
poonds of buffalo fish were seined
out, and CO.. $50 pounds of carp.
The pollution of Iowa streams by
industrial corporations has done very
much toward destroying the game
fish, says Mr.. Lincoln, and he urges
legislation to prevent dumping into
the stream anything that will be in
furious to the fish.

a Fine Team Killed.

Thursday evening the s o'clock
passenger from the south, struck and
killed a team of horses near this
station. The horses had been driven
to the factory by VIM. Jennings, and
were the property of his brother.
Mr. Jennings came to the factory
with a load of sweet corn and as he
had TO wait for some hours before
he could unload, he tied the team
and went TO the factory where he was
intending to husk some corn. About
six O'Clock he went out TO look after
the team and found them gone.
He searched for them but they
could not be located. Then he told
some men that if they heard of the
team being taken up they should
have them put in the barn as he
thought he would go home and see
if the horses had not wandered that
way. Just about this time the even
ing passenger came along, and the
horses, which had strayed onto the
track, were caught by the train and
one of them was cut in two and por-
lions of it's flesh were strewn along
the track for some distance, while
the other had a front and hind leg
cut off and was supposedly killed by
a member of the train crew. Later
in the night when Henry Matthys
visited the scene he found the poor
animal still alive and suffering ter
ribly, and humanely put it out of its
misery.
One of the horses was valuable
animal while the other was good
work horse, and the loss TO Mr.. Jen-
nings would be a severe one. A
claim has been sent to the railroad
officials and it is probable the matter
will be adjusted in the near future
