r,,Iy M,,hod, o. curino skins.

The original process Of curing skins
was probably the simple one OF clean
ing and drying them. Removal OF the
hair by maccration in water seems TO
have been common among the very
early tribes. and one writer has sug
gcsted that the idea was obtained
from the natural process Of depilation.
They must certainly have been familiar
with II In the case OF drowned animals
where maceration can be plainly oh
served. Following this smoke, sour
milk. oil and the brains OF the animals
themselves were found eficaciOus.
Many OF these primitive methods are
employed In remote places at the pres
cnt time.

The comment OF The Banner n few
days ago on the reported failure of
the Democrats to accept the courie-
GUS invitation OF the Republicans TO
join with them in holding an inlor-
NAL di ect primary to nominate can.
ddates this year. has aroused quite
number OF Democrats TO favor the
plan. Chairman Harris OF the Demo
cratic state committee says the com
mittee has had no opportunity 10 act
tho committee has been held Some
time ago he suggested a meeting hut
q majority OF the committee decided
that as the election comes later this
paisn meetings too early. With no
meeting held no one has any know
ledge what the attitude of the com
mittee will be. says chairman Harris
and any statement on the subject is
merely somebody's guesswork and
wholly unauthorized. Under these
circumstances it looks to The Ban.
ner as though the Democratic state
committee ought to get together and
act on the invitation II Is not yet
too late though the time is getting
short. The overwhelming vote of the
state last spring shows that a MAORI.
ty of all the parties are in favor of
the direct primary and the Demo.
cratic state committee would. without
doubt, be carrying out the wishes of
the rank and file of the pa 'ty, should
they decide TO unite with the Repub-
licans in holding an unofficial pri.
mary-union in this case meaning
merely that the two parties should
vote in the same hall at the same
time Just rs they do now at elections
There is no excuse for the suspicion
that has been cast on an informal
primary by a few men and a few
newspapers. All direct primaries
were in the beginning info NAL and
unofficial. They proved so satisfac.
tory that they were later enacted
into state law. We hope that the
Democrats will conclude to join with
the Republicans this year in giving
the plan fair trial.

REMOVE slx INCH TROUT LIMIT.

State Fish and Game Commission
ar John ~. Tiicomh. for the hrsi
time In the writer's knowledge. has
admitted that be- would like 10 see
some other restriction upon trout
fishermen than Oar law Prohibiting
the taking of fish under six inches Ia
length. The commissioners admis-
sion was made in an interview IN
connection with the heavy fine of
sf5g placed upon a resident of New
Hampshire Tor catching short trout
in Essex county. To use the commits
sioners own words he would like 90
end some less Objectionable method
OF protecting Young trout and TO give
them chance 20 b.eed before being
caught" His proposal is TO continue
the present weight limit and make
another limit OF the number OF fish
that an angler may retain In one
days fishing.
Such a plan undoubtedly has Us
advantage. II would enable. a fish.
erman on a days outing 10 bring
home a catch even II the big ones
didn't bite. \ law with the proposed
feature might meet with more gener-
al Observance than the present
statute. AT the same time there is
one predominating reason in favor OF
the present six inch limit. The cul-
turists tell us that a hve-inch trout
has not spawned but that a six-inch
trout has M least once gone through
the process OF helping to continue the
existence OF tho species.
In Bennington county the proposed
remedy would not materially change
conditions. The best trout waters in
the state are here and the fishermen,
as a whole. are law-abiding. Partial
ly due 10 the efforts OF the Benning
ton county Fish and Game club and
partially due to the arguments adj
vanced by individuals. sentiment
has been created in favor of the pres
ent law. Bennington county fisher
men as a class are anxious 10 see the
fishing improved and they realize
tina. such a condition can not be
brought about unless the trout that
are planted in the streams for stock
ing purposes have chance to spawn
