ENFORCES DEER LAW.

1t doesn't make any difference to
the Thurston County Game commits
sion whether Judge Claypool. in re-
cent Mason county case, held inef-
fective the new law prohibiting the
running of deer with dogs, according
to r. A. Cruikshank of the commits
sion, for the commission announced
this week that it would disregard that
decision and would punish any VIOLA
tors of the law.
The action of the commission is not
an affront to Judge Claypool, but
means that the commission disagrees
with the decision and is willing to
carry case to the supreme court If
things come to "show down." And
the commission wants the hunters of
Thurston county to know that the law
against running deer with dogs Is still
operative and will be enforced.
Judge Claypool held the law inef-
fective on the ground that it failed to
provide penalty for violation. The
commission points out that the stat
utes in one place expressly state that
where a particular law fails to specify
a penalty, the penal code will prevail,
arguing from this that the regular
criminal code of the state covers this
deer-hurting law.

S. Craig of Belmont, near Perth,
Western Australia, Is the largest pOul-
try breeder and egg producer in the
commonweal h, says the London Globe.
Under ordinary conditions he has be-
tween 5000 and 1000 laying hens, and
including chicks, his birds periodically
total 5000. In the flush Of the laying
season he gathers more than 200 doz-
en- eggs a day, and during February
and March, when the market price av-
eraged two shillings dozen, his check
exceeded $500 week. Practically the
whole of his stock are White Leg
horns, which he finds are easily the
most profitable for his purpose-egg
production.
Mr.. Craig began commercial poultry
raising eight years ago on very small
scale, SO that his progress has been
phenomenal He selected for his run
40 acres of land in the virgin scrub,

MILLION NEW TREES.
Apples Coming to Bear May OFFER Sc
riOUs Market Problem.

Compilations of the state depart
ment of agriculture show that more
than million apple trees, covering
some 1881 acres, came into bearing
this year. During each of the next
three years almost double this acreage
will come into bearing. These figures
are based on the planting of 1909, 1910,
1911 and 1912, with reasonable deduc-
lions for trees falling to reach matur-
ity.
That perplexing marketing prob
lem may result from this anticipated
extraordinary increase in production
seems not unlikely. This year plant
ings reported to the department have
been considerably less than they were
in 1912.

THE FELLOWSHIP LEAGUE

At the December meeting of the di-
rectors of the Fellowship League the
following officers were chosen for the
ensuing year: President, ]. H. Hub
bard; vice-president, the Reverend
Paul Roberts; secretary, r. F. Kerr;
treasurer, w. r. Vinegar. The COM
mittee on revision of the constitution
reported, and after discussion of the
proposed revision clause by clause, the
report was adopted. Simplicity of or
ganization together with concentra.
ton of effort on definite undertakings
formed the object Of all the changes.
At the same meeting Miss Fromme
was elected chairman of a committee
to have charge of a local Camp Fire
girls organization; and J. H. Hubbard
was made chairman of a similar COM
mittee to work out a satisfactory re-
organization of the Boy Scouts in
Brookings. A permanent rink com
mittee of five, consisting of Messrs.
Roberts, Cook and Bates from the
League and Messrs. Hofstetter and
Pilmer from the Students Association
at the college, has been appointed to
have charge of the operation of the
skating rink. The expenses connected
with the rink are to be equally divided
between the League and the Students
Association, except that the former is
to bear three-fourths of the cost of the
ice plane, and then to own the plane
permanently. The expense involved
in keeping the rink going will be con-
siderable, and admission is to be free.
All citizens, young and old, are urged
to join the League and thus support
the rink undertaking and others which
the League has in hand; but If there
are any who do not wish to join the
League, yet do wish to help forward
a cause which should mean much to
the young people of this community
the winter months, they may
leave contributions for the support of
the rink with Mr.. Vinegar at the post
office. The rink will be flooded as soon
the weather will permit.

monopolize agricultural news. Daily
