Again the gunne-s have been let loose
upon the farmers, and although Monday
was stormy. the weather was no barrier
to the hungry sportnan, and We were
reminded of the European war by the
incessant shooting. and also that MT.

The imposition on the farmer by the
Game Association, who sells a man a
| license to hunt on some other man $
land, and the association gets the money
while the farmer rears and feeds the
game. has caused most Of the farmers TO
advertise their land against trespassing,
which is as it should be. II the gunner
pays any one for the privilege OF gun
ming It should be to the man who owns
the land, on which the game has been
sustained. This is another instance
where the farmers must bear the burden
for another's 5 profit and pleasure.
The farmers who grew tomatoes are
growing daily more restless and impat-
lent for their money from the Gamers,
to whom they sold their yield. Oh,
what fools we mortals be Why do we
not demand the price of our produce
when delivered, instead of providing our
much needed capital tor another's use
Many an honest, reliable farmer has
been prosecuted for a debt, which he
promised to pay from his tomato crop,
while the phosphate men are becoming
very busy after accounts for terli1zer.

The cunning season opened in this
section on Mondav morning with large
number of local hunters in the field. As
had been anticipated, a large percentage
of the farmers had posted their lands
against the gunners as a result of which
the gunuers experienced much trouble
in getting at the game. Game, 1t IS re-
ported, is more plentiful this season than
usual, and many ascribe It to the TACT
that the new laws are the proper ones
Others, however, are much opposed to
them.

Sufficient EXPLANATION.

Senator William J. Stone Of Missouri
smiled the other evening when refer
ence was made to the appointment OF
postmasters. He said he was reminded
Of an incident of that character.
Some time ago salesman happened
In a small back country town and was
surprised at the warmth Of the fight
over the local post office appointment.
Look here, Jake" remarked the
wondering salesman to an acquaint-
ance, "the whole town seems to be
wildly excited over this post office
business. 1t isn't job that pays much
money, is it,"
NO" answered Jake. ut don't pay
hardly any money at all.
well, If that's the case then re-
turned the salesman. why Is 1t that
everybody takes such great interests
in the thing?"
Its jist this way, pard," explained
the native Most Of us are particular
who reads our postal cards. "-Phila'
