States Fish Work
Has Expanded in
All Directions

Apt comparison of the relative eco
nomic value of an acre of land and an
acre of water was made by N. r. Bull
ler, State fish commissioner.
Scarcely a farm exists in this
State" said Mr.. Butler, (which does
not have wet spot which can be used
as a pond for fish. All that is need
ed is supply of water sufficient to
prevent the pond from becoming stag
nant 1t need not be very large
pond.
"The farmer, or several farmers GO
ing together, can raise supply of
fish sufficient not only for family use
but leave plenty over to SELL"
The sunfish species known as blue
gills and the catfish are the best to
raise. If no pond exists, the cost of
construction need not be great and
the cost of maintenance is NIL. The re-
turn in sport and food repays all effort
manifold.

vide additional food in the shape of

the road which figured in the suit"
He showed slide of road as good as
a race track at a county fair.
THE best thing the Highway Com
missioner could do would be to hold
road conventions all over the State,
but hold them right out on the roads.
Use practical object lessons. The
township highway law of 1913 Is not a
bad law; it's a good law.
Last nights session of the board
was featured by pertinent addresses
on different topics which were receiv-
ed with close attention by the farm
ers.
Two heads of State departments
talked Superintendent of Public
Printing and Binding A. Nevin Pome-
roy and State Librarian Thomas Lynch
Montgomery. Reports were also re-
ceived and an address was made by
Professor NJ S. Mcdowell. of State
College. &t
Superintendent Pomeroy confessed
that 1t was bit difficult to interest
farmers directly in printing, but he
dwelt upon the big educational work
Of the State in sending out bulletins
and advised all of them to study the
bulletins OF the Department of Agri-
culture and its branches. Touching
upon delays in issuing documents
said that he is an earnest advocate
of a State-owned printery, but inform
ed his hearers that such a plan Is
impossible without an amendment to
the constitution.
Librarian Montgomery devoted most
of his address to the travelling library
system of the State institution, citing
some of the work it has done and urg-
ing that use be made of these free cir
RI i,%er ,1rox t,x nAr of
the State. He also referred to the ex-
cellent free circulating collection of
lantern slides which the State museum
has under him and urged the use of
this educational material. r. p. Bliss,
who Is in charge of the travelling IL
braries, invited, the agriculturists to
visit the library and see how the sys-
TEN Is worked.
Professor Mcdowell spoke of the
educational work of State College not
particularly among the students at the
citizens at large in the matter Of liter
ature, farmers trains, etc.
State Economic Zoologist H. A. Sur
face. reporting as theornithologist of
the board, gave an outline of the pro-
tected and unprotected birds of the
State and of the work they do and
in conclusion he showed lantern slides
of San Jose Scale parasites which are
cleaning up the orchards of the State.
Professor Franklin Menges, of York,
presented his report as entomologist
of the board; John H. Schultz, of
Norristown, as chairman of the ferti-
lizers committee, and sylvester Shaf-
fer, of New Castle. as chairman of the
wool and textile fibers committee.
James Foust, dairy and food COM
missioner, was scheduled to speak late
yesterday afternoon, but was busy in
court and DIR. Joseph Kalbfus, chief
game protector, who was to speak to-
morrow morning. made his address
then. DR.. Kalbfus made an earnest
plea for the preservation of bird life
saying very little about the aesthetic
side. He devoted himself principally
to economics, quoting figures of loss
and possible loss from insects which
ran from billions to sextillions and had
his audience gasping.

More State Police
a Necessity For
Rural Districts

Major John C. Groome, superinten-
dent of State police, this morning
talked to the board on "Police Pro-
lection to Rural Districts" setting
forth details of the work which are
probably unfamiliar to many citizens.
Major Groome recited the methods
of organization and maintenance of
the force and then told how the rural
districts in general get protection dur
ing the summer by the scores Of sub
stations which are established and
which cover hundreds of miles by
daily patrol, do local detective and
protective work, fight forest fires,
help enforce game and fish laws, etc.
In 1912 the department received
2,592 requests for help from mayors,
judges, sheriffs, ETC., nearly all of
which came from small places with
little or no local protection. The
calls averaged eight per day. The
200 men on the force cover 491,000
In six years, the force has covered g.
142,000 miles and made 20,576 ar
rests.
"The common idea that the State
police are like a fire company, set
ting around. waiting for an alarm, is
entirely wrong" he said. "They are
constantly on duty. Unfortunately,
riot duty is the most spectacular work
we do, although it is but a small item.
We have made as many arrests for
horse stealing as we have for riot,
and we have made more for murder
and more for rape.
"a group Of idle men, infiamed by
an agitation and probably some al
cohol, becomes mob and a riot
starts Local methods fail and the
State police are called. We recognize
nothing as an excuse for rioting. No
matter what the merits of the strike
the men must preserve law and or
der. Naturally, we have incurred the
enmity of some workingmen, but
am glad to say that the better class
of English speaking laboring men are
changing their views"
In conclusion, Major Groome said
the way to get more protection is
to have more police.
'I consider the refusal of the last
Legislature to increase the force a di-
rect invitation to criminals in this
State. I hope the next session will
do better. You men can be of great
help. The farmers are the men who
rule the State. We ought to have
such a police force in Pennsylvania
that no farm, no matter how remote
or isolated, is without protection.
Remember, our work is entirely in
the country, except on riot duty. We
cannot help you as we should unless
we have sufficient men and money.

Charges Made Against
Prison Management

Philadelphia, Jan. 29.-Accusations
of inhumanity and brutality were pre-
ferred against the management of
Moyamensing prison yesterday.
I A widow told the five Common Pleas
Court judges, who are investigating
conditions at the Tenth and Reed
streets jail, that, to all intents and
purposes her husband had been killed
in prison. She said he had been starv-
ed to death. An ex-prisoner testified
that when he told a keeper he was
ill and asked him to summon a physi-
clan, the reply was a threat of physical
violence If he did not keep quiet. He
did not keep quiet and his punishment
was blow that knocked out two
teeth.

Commissioner Butler, noting the
common idea that propagation of
game fish is the departments chief
work, said it's really important work
Is to propagate food fish. He set his
office at the disposal of any who wish
to establish food fish ponds on a farm
and urged the agriculturists to take
up the idea. Fish for stocking are
available from the department..
