SPRING SHOOTING UP AGAIN
Wisconsin Advocates Of Second Sea
son for Ducks Base Their Argu-
ments on the Illinois Law.

Madison Wisconsin Fish aud
Game Protective and Propagation
league held a meeting here for dis
cussion Of proposed legislation af-
fecting sportsmeu. One proposal
certain to come up is an open season
for the shooting Of ducks in the
spring, and an open season for the
shooting Of quail.
State Game Warden John A. ShOIts
in an interview prior to the meeting
expressed his opposition to both pro
posals. Spring shooting of ducks
and quail. he declared, is disastrous
to the fun propagation Of the birds
The principal argument of the La
Crosse hunters who favor it. he said
is the fact that Illinois allows it, and
that the birds flying southwark from
Wisconsin fall prey to Illinois MIN
rods.
Warden Shots contends that the
preservation of the birds in the
spring means more to hunters in Wis
consin generally than the temporary
qualification of some hunters desire

Milk Can Seal.

Pennsylvania man has devised a milk
can seal that will tell Immediately
whether or not q can has been opened.
On the neck of the can is bifurcated
lug, and just above it, on the lid is
a small hinged arm with perforations
in it. There are also perforations on
opposite sides Of the lug. To seal the
can the hinged member is dropped into
the opening of the lug and the perfo-
rations aligned. A soft metal seal is
then inserted in the aligned perfora-
tons and the can defes any one to
open it without breaking the seal and
leaving trace of their operations
