CONSERVATION ACT
OUT FOR CRITICISMS
Governor Makes Public Outline of
the Bill to Consolidate Four
Departments

The outline of Governor Brum-
baughs proposed department of con-
servation to consolidate the game, fish
and water supply commissions and
the department of forestry, made pub
lie here last night for public sugges-
tions. is one of the most interesting
measures drafted. The chief feature
is that it gives the commissioner of
conservation absolute authority to ap-
point or dismiss any official, from
deputy down, and to fix the salaries
and change them The bill, as the
Governor said some time ago. will
combine the activities of the branches
of the government enumerated and
create a department to have charge of
undeVeloped lands just as the Depart
ment of Agriculture has of the i'm
proved land With approval of the
act the four branches will be abol-
iShed and all powers transferred, spe-
cific mention being made of eleven
provisions, while thirty-four laws are
mentioned to be enforced as hereto
fore.
The Governor is to name the COM
missioner for four years. but the sal
airy space is left blank for sugges-
tions. The proba bilities are that it
will call for $500. There are to he
four bureaus to take over the detail
work of the four branches Of govern
ment but the field forces are CONSOLE
dated The chief is also to be given
authority to call upon state police.
In addition to provisions mentioned
the department is to pay special atten-
tion to the development of an efficient
forest fire fighting force and to take
particular pains to conserve water
supply, including water power for
future use.
When the bill will be introduced is
not known. There is some criticism
of it by sportsmens associations in
the abstract but they will make suE-
gestions.
The proposed bill would rip out OF
office many prominent men who are
members of commissions, includins
DIR. Charles B. Penrose, brother of the
senator, John p. Wagner, the famou.

, To Be CHANGED NOW
Latest Fish Bill Would Extend 1t
and Make Changes Regard
ing Other Fishes

A change of the trout season from
April II to August l to period eX-
tending from April 10 to August 81 is
among the provisions in the bill to
codify the fishing laws of the state
prepared for Introduction into the
House last night by United Sportsmen
officers. The bill is to be presented by
Representative Hugh A. Dawson, OF
Scranton.
The bill is q voluminous affair and
makes effective many of the present
laws as we'll as strengthening them IN
several places. The authority or the
commissioner for prevention of pollu-
ton of streams and to declare what
are trout streams is retained.
one of the provisions in the bill
Furnishes by a fine any person having
in possession a trout beyond the legal
limit and another which is designed
to prevent fishermen throwing away
small fish they have caught and then
going on in the hope of landing larger
ones. All caught must be retained.
The bass and pickerel season is to
run from June Is to December 81 and
the limit of catch is unchanged, but
ten inches is made the limit for keep
ing bass caught. At present bass un-
der eight inches must be thrown back.
Pickerel under twelve inches may not
be kept.
The season for shad, alewife or her
ring is to extend from March l to
June 20.

Martin Pension Act
Is Much Discussed

Senator Franklin Martin, of West
FairView, sponsor of the bill to pen
sion veterans of Pennsylvania emer-
gency regiments of the Civil war; is
anxious to obtain the names of all
men who enlisted under the calls of
the governor in September, 1862, or
June, 1863, when the State was in
vaded by Lee. The Senator has pre-
sented a bill which would give a PEN
sion of SS per month and is especially
desirous of getting the names and adj
dresses of all emergency men now
living in the State. Under the plan
provided in the Martin bill the Cover
nor would name a pension commits
sioner for four years at 5000 year
and who is to name clerks. The lieu
tenant governor, secretary of the Com
monwealth and attorney general are to
act as a board of appeals from decis-
ions of the commissioner. All appli-
cants must file applications under the
plans outlined by the pension officer
and no one receiving a United States
government pension may receive the
State pension. The payments are to
be made quarterly and the system TO
become operative on September next.
The bill carries an appropriation OF
100000

A CHILD DOESN'T
LAUGH AND PLAY
IF CONST|PATED
If peevish, feverish and sick, give
California Syrup
of Figs"

Mother! Your child isn't naturally
cross and peevish. See if tongue is
coated; this is a sure sign it's little
stomach, liver and bowels need
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale feverish, full OF
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stomach
ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gentle
liver and bowel cleansing should al
ways be the first treatment given.
Nothing equals California Syrup of
Figs" for children's ills; give tea
spoonful, and in a few hours all the
foul waste, sour bile and fermenting
food which is clogged in the bowels
passes out of the system, and you have
we'll and playful child again. All
children love this harmless, delicious
fruit laxative" and it never fails to
effect a good inside" cleansing. Di-
rections for babies. children of all ages
and grown-ups are plainly on the bot
tie.
Keep it handy in your home. A lit
tie given to-day saves a sick child to-
morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your
druggist for a 50-cent bottle of Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs" then look and
see that it is made by the California
Fig Syrup Company. Advertisement
