has been brought to trial in the local
court for a long time. 1t is but one OF
a series Of cases in which Kobe. the
farm tenant, and Noises, the landlord,
have had in various stages Of litigation
for several years.
Because Noises is alleged to have
told T. F. Bradford, Kolbe's attorney,
Charles Gustafson, Charles Henry,
Mrs. Marie Kobe. Kolbe's wife, and
Lizzie Bi=rman that Kobe set Noises
barn on fire, Kobe sued him. me

Noises defense is denial and a

Hsl,sters Are Warned !.
Not TO Shoot Ducks

Judging by the reports Of shot guns
heard along the Iowa river early this
morning, hunters were killing ducks,
or at least shooting at them, as tho
there was no federal law prohibiting
spring shooting. Hunters should be
warned in time, for the new federal
law prohibits the shooting of migratory
birds in the spring in Iowa the same as
It does In other states. Federal prose-
cution under this law would prove to
be no joke.
The enforcement Of the law Is put in
charge of the department Of agricul-
ture, which will enforce 1t thru the
state and its deputy game wardens.
Some question has been raised that the
law did not apply during the spring
season In Iowa. Such is not the case,
as inquiry at Washington today de.

tory birds is permitted under the law
