Washington, D. c., August, 1910.
With the approach of the open season
for shooting wild fowl, the United States
! Department of Agriculture Is warning
sportsmen that the Federal regulations,
amended October /, 1914, will be strictly
enforced. Some misunderstanding has
arisen from the fact that the various state
laws do not always conform to the FEEDER.
al regulations. This is regarded as unfor-
tunate, but in such cases the Department
must insist upon the observance OF the
Federal regulations.
The Department will consider any rec
concentrations submitted in good faith
for amendment of the regulations, but
will hold no public hearings thereon,
nor will it amend the regulations prior to
October Is, 1915. 1t is the purpose Of the
Department to conform the regulations
to the wishes of the majority of sports
men 90 far as it can be done and at the
same time give wild fowls the necessary
protection.
Federal regulations divide the United
States into two zones. Zone Number 1,
the breeding zone, includes the States Of
Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Nebraska,
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylva-
MIA, and New Jersey, and all states north
OF them. Zone Number 2, the winterine
zone, includes all states south OF those
named.
The regulations prsscribe seasons as
follows: r.

Connection After War.

Hon. Samuel Mccall, of Massachu-
sets, spoke at Lynn on July 10 on
the Tariff. He said in part:
81 cannot come to a great indus
trial center like this without saying
one word regarding the policy that |
believe is largely responsible for the
Industrial greatness of America.
President Woodrow Wilson made the
statement that ever since he was a
boy he wanted to sign simething like
the Underwood Tariff bill. Well, he
, was boy under Buchanan's admin
istration, and we had a Free-Trade
; Tariff then. That was displaced by
Protection under Lincoln, whereup-
on our industry quickened and we
became great industrial nation.
Germany followed our example and
her modern industrial prosperity is
the result of Tariff.
L believe that it is necessary to
make a patient inquiry into cost diff
ferences between American and Eu-
ropean products and levy a Tariff
that shall cover this difference of la
Dor cost. l do not believe in Tar
if higher than the moon, but a fair
difference, based upon the cost of pro-
duction. Without it you are going
to have retrogression and your work
ing people are going to lose employ
ment.
After the European war we are
going to have the fiercest kind of
competition and our country is like
" to be inundated with foreign goods.
At present the was is operating as a
Protective Tariff, so that we are max
ing our own goods now. We must
look ahead and prepare a Tariff that
will protect our working people from
the competition of foreign goods
that will be forthcoming as a result
of cheaper labor in Europe.
Zone instance of the effect of a
lower Tariff is the fact that in the
first seven months of last year $780,
900, 900 worth more foreign goods
was brought into this country than
in the first seven months of the year
previous, And the United States
