SHOOTING MIGRATORY BIRDS
froVlslons OF the Federal Law for
Preservation of Water Fowl to
Be Rigidly Enforced

Washington, D. c., Feb. Prom
the number of letters which they have
received on the subject recently. Off
cials of the Department of Agriculture
believe that sportsmen NAV uninten-
tIonally violate the provisions of the
Federal migratory bird law, which it
Is the purpose of the government to en-
force rigidly. Under the provisions of
this law, no water fowl can be shot
in the northern or breeding zone after
January 10, except in New Jersey.
where the season extends to February
|.
In most of the southern or winter
ing zone the season closes February l.
but extends to February 10 in Florida,
Georgia and South Carolina. These reg
ulations were proclaimed on October 1 -.
1914. No change has since been
made in them and no change is likely
to be made until the constitutionality
Of the law has been passed on by the
U. 5. Supreme Court. AS matter of
fact. the law provides that all changes
in the regulations must be considered
for period of 80 days, and then must
be approved and signed by the Presi-
dent, before they become effective. 1t
is thus evident that there is no posi-
bility that the prohibition of spring
shooting will be in any way modified
this year.
The officials of the L. S. Department
of Agriculture who are entrusted with
the enforcement of the law are anxious
that these facts be impressed upon the
people because it is the intention to
investigate carefully all reports of vio-
lations made to the department in
spectors and wardens and to prosecute
all such violations in the Federal courts
In this connection it is pointed out
that prosecutions may be instituted at
any time within three years of the Of
fense.

Lebanon, Feb. IA pathetic Incl
dent occurred at the burial on Saturday

hour of the funeral service in st. Ger
trude's Catholic church, had arrived in

ceived a telegram from his wife s
brother, Frank Gomnoz, stating that he
was on the way to Lebanon and asked
that the funeral be delayed several
hours until he could arrive.
He lives at Cleveland, Ohio, and was
long delayed on the way East. He sent
the telegram from a station along the
route, stating that he wolld arrive here
at p. M.
1t was, of course, impossible to post
pone the Requiem Mass, and the fu-
neral was then held in the afternoon
The necessary arrangements were made
with Funeral Director 2. H. Thomp-
son and after the service the body was
held in the church. The early after
noon trains brought no relative, how.
ever. The brother was delayed be-
tween Harrisburg and Pittsburgh. He
arrived here at p. m, too late to see
the face of his dead sister.

LANCASTER TOBACCO MARKET
Twenty Per Cent. of the County's New
Crop Is Sold

Lancaster, Feb. lit is estimated
that so far about 20 per cent. of Ian
caster county's new tobacco crop has
been bought up, and already heavy de-
liveries have been made, especially to
Lancaster and Landisville warehouses.
While most of the tobacco has been
bought by local packers, it was for big
outside concerns. Very few local men
have bought any crops for themselves.
The growers have apparently settled
down to the conviction that they will
not get 10 cents pound for their
wrapper goods, though cents pound
will be received for filters.
When the big concerns began buying
earlier in the season they paid 10 cents,
but before they stopped buying they
were down to 8 1-2 and cents. Since
active buying ceased, the crops have
been going at to 9 1-2 cents, 10
cents being paid for very few crops.
The tone of the local leaf market and
the cigar industry continues to i'm
prove.
