the city and the donor 1t is also
worthy of the theme.
This is high praise, for the theme is
an inspiring one. These great inland
| unsalted seas are uniaue-fn their size,
in their beauty, in their commerce, in
their history and in their influence,
beth past and present, upon the Amer
lean people,
In the earliest days the great lakes
were the route over which the explorer
pressed ever westward. the highway
over which the trade Of the wilderness
passed. The French held on to them
like grim death against the British and
the British In turn against the Ameri-
cans. Perry's victory of Lake Erie,
which decided the control OF the great
lakes region. was as important in its
way as George Rogers Clark's capture
Of kaskaskia and Vincennes in the
! destiny Of the new nation.
In this modern day the grea, lakes
bear an inland commerce unequaled in
the history of the world and contrib
uting in no small degree to the In
dustrial supremacy of our nation.
Last. and far from least. the great
lakes furnish the great health resort
md breathing place and playground OF
the middle west. Time was, and not
long ago, that the shores Of the great
lakes outside Of the cities were vii
derness. Now these shores are dotted
with the summer homes Of the people
who fly to them for pure air and cool
breezes and renewed health.
There is no other such playground in
the known world. and the American
people are just beginning to appreci-
ate it.
Therefore, to say that dorado Tafts
fountain is worthy of the theme is to
give high praise indeed.

That the secretary of state is "a
force for moral and religious life quite
beyond any other man among his fifty
thousand fellow citizens" is asserted
without qualification by a clergyman
of Lincoln, Neb. Mr.. Bryan is a case
of the prophet honored at home. He
is "a model as citizen and as
neighbor." He seems to have been a
normally developed christian boy. says
the Rev. Thomas NJ. Shipherd in The

clared his faith, and from that time
till now he has worked at this pro-

IOWA PRAIRIE CHICKENS.

There are some prairie chickens in
Iowa this year. But by the time the
season is over and the rabbit hunters
of the birds there will be mighty few
left. Right now the hunter who finds
q covey never leaves it until il is en-
tirely cleaned up If he can help it. II
few get away somebody is back next
day after them. The young birds were
shot before they were half grown by
those willing to take the chances. The
old birds will be hunted thru the corn
fields by others who are willing to take
q chance on the game warden. 1t may
even be that the game warden himself
shall have chicken outside Of the legal
limit. Such things used 10 be. Per-
haps however. the later wardens are all
that they ought TO be. Let US hope SO.
A few years ago there was not a good
days chicken shooting in the state of
Iowa The chickens were gone. They
had been shot. trapped. hunted to death.
And then those who had kept a dog a
year in order to shoot over him week
or two forgot the game and failed TO
renew the old dog with new one.
There was little hunting OF chickens for
several years And as a result of this
forced conserva ton there are chicens
again in the adaptable spots in Iowa
There's a lesson in il. We can, if
We choose. shoot everything In sight
and follow every last survivor into the
corn for one year or two. destroy all
shooting and then await from FIVE TO
ten years for another single season.
Or we can use common sense, limit the
number Of birds to be killed in day
and in a season and have a little bit
every fall The fact is that in Iowa no
man should be permitted to kill more
than ten prairie chickens a Gay or
more than fifty in one season. And his
from him say for FIVE years upon his
conviction Of exceeding the limit.
If the game is the states and TO be
preserved we must turn from the idea
that we can raise enough game on
Matching plants and the like TO give
every game glutton his fill and srrin
gently limit the kill. Iowa can never
again be game state but there can be
a little shooting every fall for those
who are willing to take the time and
spend the money going after it.

To Stop Meat shortage.

Shortage of meat in the United States
and the way to increase the supply are
discussed by experts in the Department
of Agriculture in special bulletin issued
TO the farmers of The country.
That there is decided meat shortage
is explained by James M. Pickens, OF the
Bureau of Animal Industry, while George
M. Rommel, chief of the Animal Husbandry
Division, urges maintenance and increase
in the meat supply by revival OF beef cat
tie raising in the corn belt, its extension
in the Eastern States and increasing the
production of beef cattle and hogs in the
South.
The bulletin points out that in the last
six wears the number OF beef cattle IN Inc
country apparently has fallen of over 81
per cent, while the population has IN
creased.
Department estimates show that the
number OF beef cattle in the country on
January /, 1907, was 81 500, 600 head ana
at the beginning of the present year only
$780, 600, while the number OF DAIRY
cows remained practically stationary.
The slaughter OF beef. it is set torih,
has fallen off approximately 7SO,OOO,OOo
pounds from 1910 TO 1913. Meanwhile
the country's export trade has greatly
fallen off and Mr.. Pickens offers little
hope for imports from Argentina ana
Australia because of their great drain oy
European markets. Argentina, he as
serts, already is drawing on its live stock
reserve.
The department makes the assertion
that the farms OF this country have almost
unlimited possibilities for live stock pro-
duction and that all the meat needed
could be furnished if the farmers could be
shown how to produce it and how to gel
a ready market.
