CHICKENS
SEEM PLENT|FU UL

From all reports we can gather the
prairie chickens seem very plentiful
and the outlook is that chicken shoot
ing will be good this fall. The coveys
are large and the young chickens
are about half grown at the present
time. The game laws are being OBJ
served better in the past two years
than ever before and we hope and
trust that these conditions will exist
this season and that no game will be
killed out of season AMI If such Is the
case the opening of the season will
find plenty of birds, both ducks and
chickens and the sportsnl,4l Will have
q real mecca to hunt this fall.

Get Ready
For Saloons

Home rule on intoxicating liquors
will probably become part of Ohio's
organic law today. Constitutional
lawyers are in doubt which day home
rule takes effect. The only formal
ity necessary to complete its incor-
poration into the constitution is is
suance of the official proclamation by
Gov. James M. Cox and Secretary of
State Charles H. Graves. This proc
lamation is expected today (Friday)
when the ballots cast will be destroyed
under the law, thus ending the possi-
bilitp of recount asked by the drys.
Already pressure is being brought
to bear on Gov. Cox and the state
liquor licensing board to have county
license commissions named in coun-
ties made wet by adoption of the
amendment, among which is Medina
county.
In part the demand for immediate
naming Of license commissioners
comes from towns that cannot be
voted dry under township and mu-
nicipal option laws but have been dry
under the Rose law.
While Medina village is fortified
against the invasion of the saloon,
there are many other places in the
county that become vulnerable for
the saloon, through the home rule
amendment, and Medina county may
expect to have them at the very ear
liest period allowed by law, probably
by January /.

is the result of community work and
reflects credit to the progressive spir-
it of the people in and around Leroy,
They have secured specialists from
the College Of Agriculture to give in
structions and demonstrations in the
subjects of soil fertility, farm crops
poultry raising, animal husbandry.
and home economics.
If the farmers of any community
are able to maintain the fertility Of
the soil and at the same time pro-
duce large crops, they may well be
proud Of their work. There are few
farms for sale in such a neighbor.

such a favorable location.
The study and discussion Of these
subjects as will undoubtedly takt

ity, an opportunity for the farmers
to secure frst-hand and high-grad'
instruction in various lines and un
dcubtedly will result in better flu

Kills Friend
While Hunting
IL

The second accident since the hunt
ing ban was lifted, and a fatal one,
occurred shortly after noon, Tuesday,
when John Baretsky was instantly
killed by his friend, Leonard Kiekel,
while hunting in the woods southeast
of Hinckley Center.
Both men were from Cleveland and
had journeyed to Hinckley in the
morning for a day Of pleasure. 1t
is not known exactly how the accident
happened. The men were only a few
feet from each other at the time,
From the fact that Baretsky re-
ceived the full charge from Kiekel's
gun in his chest would suggest that
the latter was either reloading or re.
pairing the weapon.
DR.. Ayers, the local physician, Sc
cured permission from Cororer Strong
of Medina to remove the body o1
Baretsky to his home in Cleveland.
Baretsky was "a years old and &
moulder employed at the Born Stee
Range Co.

RECOVERED FROM ACCIDENT

Mr.. Geo. F, Gruninger, who has
been laid up since his miraculous es-
cape from death on election day, is
able to walk up town again.
Mr.. Gruninger suffered a severe
fracture of the skull when a 16-foot
2x4 oak scantling was blown on to
him while at work near his barn.
Two teeth were knocked out and he
was rendered insensible and it was
feared for while that his injury
would prove fatal. Remembering
that he once was told by a doctor that
in injuries to the head it is wise to
keep on ones feet, if possible, as a
means of preventing the formation of
clot on the brain, Mr.. Gruninger in
sisted upon walking to the office OF
his physician against the protest Of
family and friends, and he believes
this action had much to do with his
final recovery.

State Skaters
Bunny's Hopes

The ban on hunting on Al counties
of the state including Medina coun-
ty was lifted Thursday. All local
hunters unleashed their dogs, grab
bed guns and cartridge belts and
rushed forth to slaughter the unsus-
pecting rabbit.
The embargo on hunting which
was ordered November IA, the day
before hunting season was to open
came as a deep disappointment to
many who had planned their vaca.
tions for this time and had made all
preparations. to go.
The lifting of the hunting ban is &C.
companied by an order permitting
free movement of cattle except thai
the cars must be disinfected ant
must bear cards showing the name
and county address of the shipper
This includes a number of countie!
around Medina such as Cuyahoga
Portage, Summit, Lake and Lorain
Two counties, Waynee and Stark
are still partially quarantined, move
ment Of stock into winter quarters
for breeding purposes or immediate
slaughter being permitted. No hunt
ing in these counties is allowed, how
ever.
In only 13 counties does an abso
lutte quarantine exist. These ar,
are Erie, Hancock, Huron, Knox, OF
tawa, Putnam, Preble, Richmond
Sandusky, Seneca, Woods, Williams
and Wyandot.. In these counties cat
tie and sheep and hogs may not evel
be removed to winter quarters excep
under permit by the inspectors.

county. Next to Cleveland, this was
the largest delegation. Former Coun-
