GAME CONSERVATION MEANS
MUCH TO KENTUCKY.

In, his first report to the General
Assembly since the Department was
creted, Executive Agent J. @. Ward,
Of the Game and Fish Commission,
is preparing some figures to show
what the conservation of game and
fish means to the people of the State
in food values, as we'll as in other
ways. He collected information from
every available source, and has taken
the statements of fishermen who
have made livelihood on the rivers
as to what their catches amounted to
in year. Their estimates of the
yearly average yields of the kinds of
nets, which have been .confscated in
the streams of Kentucky, vary from
500 to 1000 pounds.
Mr. Ward estimates approximately
thousand nets were in use. This
would yield an annual total of 500 900
pounds from the stream, and at ten
cents the pound that would mean
$4,000. At the price of other kinds
of meats, the value of these 100000
pounds of fish to the four hundred
thousand families of the State, shows
an aggregate saving of considerably
more than the total price of the fish
at ten cents the pound; as the $50, 900
worth of fish would be a. substitute
for an equal ration of some other kind
of meat, costing, perhaps, five times
as much.
The value of rabbits and other
kinds of game, estimating that the
game taken in year would amount
to one meal for every family in the
State, is also considered by Mr.
Ward.

HANSON ROAD
IS SETTLED
State and County Commis-
sioners Agree to Dispute
Highway Question
TO BUILD BOTH ROADS
Result of County and State
Officials Promises Solu-
ton of the Matter

MONTESANO, July 21.-"Before
we adjourn bids will be called for on
the c. d. Hansen road" said Com.
missioner E. E. Fishel at the conclu.
sion of conference between the com
missioners and Alex Poison.
The contract on which bids will be
asked for is for the improvement OF
the three miles of road on which the
contract was cancelled at the begin
ming of the year. But in addition to
the work that contract called for
this will call for the building of the
two necessary bridges and the gray
cling of the road.
There was whole flock of peace
doves lowering around at the com
missioners' meeting today AS soon
as Mr.. Fishel had heard from the
highway commission he announced
that the Hansen contract would be
let and that in the neighborhood OF
$4,000 would be spent on that pro
ject. Then he asked Mr.. Poison, who
was before the board. if he would
grant an unconditional waiver fol-
right of way for the extension of the
road to Humptulips over his land on
any route selected by the engineer
"Why, yes. of course. l have agreed
to that in advance, you know"
"And then, too," Mr.. Fishel sug
gested, "we are likely to want to
make some few changes in the right
of way of the Humptulips-Quiniault
road. AS I understand it, we have q
right of way, but what I mean is,
there are places where we may better
it some"
II want the best location possible,
too. If it can be made better by
slight deviations from the surveyed
route, make the change, certainly,
replied Mr.. Poison.
"Will you be able to gravel any
of the abandoned railroad grade on
the Hansen route beyond the three
miles you are going to contract?'
asked Poison.
why, l doubt if we will have
much more than the $4,000 we car
spend there" replied Fishel, "but
was going to suggest that if the con
tract does not take all of that the
balance should be expended in gravel
ing the old grade beyond"
Then everybody grinned and was
happy, and the commissioners and
Mr.. Poison discussed road building
methods and caterpillar engines apt

adjourned to the engineers office IT,

Centuries Ago Il Was a Part Of the

Centuries Ago It Was Part OF the
Art Of the Apothecary.
Curiously enough. the making Of con-
fectiOnery originated in way with the
apothecaries about 500 years ago. 1t
was then that sugar was first imported
into England. and 1t was then that
| CONNECTIONS" first became known. For
time they appeared only in medical
form. the apothecaries using the newly
imported sugar as means of mitigat-
ing the bitterness Of their doses. In
other words. they mixed their drugs
with it. and therein lay the origin of
many of the sirups and medicated can
dies. the ancestors Of our cough drops
and lozenges. The cost of sugar was
far too high. and most people were far
too poor to permit of its being eaten
for it's own sake alone and as a mere
luxury.
1t was only couple of centuries ago
that there began to appear new
phase of the apOthecary's art Con.
! fectiOns began to be made more or less
apart from any medicinal purpose and
because people liked them, and eventu-
ally the confectioner's business became
quite separate and distinct from that
Of the apOthecary.

may be said to be about 200 years old.
it was only within recent times that 1t
became real and extensive industry.

put was very small. and. comparative
y speaking. sweetmeats Of all sorts

cream and other processes.
While many Of the best and most
expensive candies are still very largely
made by hand processes. by far the
greater mass Of sweetmeats is produc-
ed by machinery.-Harper's Weekly.

POLITICAL DOPE

Washington Correspondent

National Capital
TARIFF AND CURRENCY
Narrow Majority Of the Sen
ate Leaves a Chance for
Guess as to Result
TARIFF AND CURRENCY

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 49,
Especially The Tariff Bill is now be-
fore the senate for debate. 1t is be-
lieved that this bill will be debated
by the senate for four or five weeks
and that it will pass the senate about
August 18th. The president is very
certain that the bill will pass the
senate by substantial majority.
The democrats have fifty-one men,
bers in the senate, but it is likely
that one or both of the Louisiana
senators will prove traitors and vote
against the bill so that will leave
there is some doubt about Schafforth
of Colorado, and Newlands, of Neva-
da. If these two senators should 90
so far as to vote against the bill it
is very certain that Poindexter, of
Washington, progressive" will vote
with the democrats, thereby making
the votes stand forty-eight for and
forty-eight against the bill, causing a
tie In that event Vice-Presidenr
Marshall will cast the deciding vote
and pass the bill.
Proggressives Likely to Support Bill
1t is quite likely that one or more
other progressive votes will be re-
corded in favor of the bill, by Sena-
tor LaFollette, of Wisconsin,; Bristow.
of Kansas; Cummins. of Iowa, and
Knapp of Minnesota. These senators
left the republican party on account
of the Payne-Aldrich Bill and if they
should vote against the democratic
measure which is a great improve
ment over the present tariff they
would be voting for the existing bill
against which they so bitterly fought
four years ago, when Aldrich- Cannon
& Co., were putting stand-pat mea-
sures through congress with a high
hand. These progressive senators
will have to confess that they are
unmitigated demogogues and that
they are hypocrites and sham patriots
if they vote against this bill.
Public Supports the President
President Wilson is receiving the
most stalwart support from the pub
lie that any president has received in
fifty years, and any democrat or pa
triot who cannot approve the leader
ship of President Wilson should GER
tainly have his sanity, patriotism, or
intelligence examined by an expert
because he is evidently wrong in one
or more of these points.
Currency Bill
The Currency Bill which has been
introduced in both houses of congress
is being discussed in every town and
hamlet in the land. The thing that
puzzles SO many is that the bill deals
with our greatest problem in such a
simple and efficient way. While it
takes the power of controlling our
finances absolutely out of the hands
or even the influence of Wall Street,
it nevertheless will prove great
blessing to our banks and will,
through them, prove a great blessing
to all legitimate business enterprises,
and will place the banks more COM
pletely under the control of the gov
ernment than they ever have been.
The two main points Of the Currency
Bill are therefore absolute govern
ment control of the money Of the
country and the automatic expansion
or Increase of money according to
the requirements of business.
