DOOM FOR DEER AND HARE
determination Of Game Animals
Planned to Avert the Annual
Great Forest Fires.

determination of deer and rabbit
in New Jersey is planned by the state
forestry commission as the only eff
fective means of protecting the state
woodlands against forest fires such
as destroyed nearly $200,0 600 worth of
property during the first two weeks
of the recent cunning season.
The commission decided to seek the
cooperation of the state fish and game
commission in procuring legislation
revoking the closed season for deer
and rabbit. In the discussion preced.
ing the adoption of this resolution it
was freely admitted that such a
course would ultimately result in the
determination of deer and rabbits,
which are now to be found in consid-
cradle numbers in various parts of the
state.
That the action of the forestry com.
mission will stir up the opposition of
most of the 10000 hunters with which
New Jersey is credited seems alrost
certain. On the other hand, 70. mers
who say their crops are destroyed by
deer and rabbits may line up on the
other side and make the fight inter-
esting. 1t is scarcely conceivable that
the fish and game commission, whose
every effort has been directed toward
procuring greater restrictions, will
join with the forestry board.-Trenton

EcIipses Come in Series.

All eclipses occur in series, the first
one of which takes place at one of
the poles and the last at the opposite
pole. The whole number in the series
OF lunar eclipses is completed in a
period of about $40 years while the
entire series Of solar eclipses covers
a period of 1000 years. Yet the time
of the beginning of I'M of these
e~clipses. and the path of totally or
partial observation can be calculated
to the moment or the mile. This is a
matter difficult to explain to the anna
teur in language to be easily under
stood. The statement OF the fact is
sufficient. To ordinary students or
observers the reasons for totality or
partial observation are much more in
teresting. simply with the passing of
each year.

1t is a popularity of reptiles that

prove that they demand periodic
torpidity for recuperation. Most of

is especially true of the w%oodchuck,
the summer life. Of which is amid
plenty of its kind of food, and it lazily
turns in the moment it finds itself rich
in fat, though it may be in the midst
of ideal fall weather when berries and
roots and all that it delights in are at
their best. 1t is another myth equally
as celebrated as that of the grounding
that the bean lives during the winter
by sucking its paws" This arose
from the position assumed by the hi
bernating bear Of curling around in its
den with all of its paws close to its
muzzle.

SCALE. 1t untilizes every inch of avaiilly1

Like other Americans the North Car
olinians have rested easily in their
possession of a land of plenty, even
when the farming is of a thoughtless
halfway sort. They have no concep-
ton of how a market gardner in the
suburbs of Paris can afford to pay a
thousand dollars a year rent for a
single acre of land, and yet make a
satisfactory profit. But Belgians
know.
Americans are giving increased at
%tention to intensive farming in all it's
branches, and if Belgians find it nee
essary to leave their own country, a
region they have developed to such a
high degree, their services in any of
our forty-eight states will be in active
demand. They have the skill to make
two or more blades of grass grow
where but one grows now, and that
means nothing less than a doubling of
production. What the Belgians and
French accomplish in gardening the
Danes are doing in dairying and
choice pork growing. Fortunately,
the war has not drawn them into it's
horrible vortex.
