MIGRATORY BIRD LAW To Be ENFORCED
Sporsnen Warned That Federal Regulations For Protection
vivid Foul Must Be Observed

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. TO-
With the approach of the open season
for, shooting wild fowl, the United
States Department of Agriculture is
informing sportsmmen that the federal
regulations as amended October L..
1914, will be strictly enforced. Some
misunderstanding has arisen from the
fact that the various state laws do not
always conform to the Federal regula-
lions. This is regarded as unfortun-
ate but in such cases the Department
must insist upon the observance of
the Federal regulations.
The Department will consider any
recommendations submitted in good
faith for amendment of the regula-

LAST SEASONS
COTTON BALES
BEING MARKETED
SUMTER FARMER is HAULING 81
BALES HERE

The spectacle of a long cotton-laden
wagon train coming along Lee street
this morning was an unusual one at
this early period of the season, and
doubtless, induced many to believe that
the new crop was moving at a great
rate However, the cotton was of last
seasons production and belonged to
Mr.. J. w. Howard, whose fine farm is
out Lee street road. Eighty bales
were thus brought to Americas today
and stored at the Council warehouse,
awaiting favorable price at which it
may be sold Many other Sumter
county farmers are also holding cot
ton Of last years crop, while 1000
bales of the old feecy is stored lit

ATLANTA, Ca, August 10.-Chief
Mayo has announced in a formal state
ment that there will be no wide open"
town or lax Interpretation of the laws
under his administrator of the police
There will be no restoring Of the re,
strfcted district and no loose opera
ton of the clubs. He proposes to en-
force the laws in so far as he is able,
but not to devote all his, energies to-
ward one particular direction while
neglecting other things of Importance.
There will be no 'tspurts or spasms'
of law enforcement, he told the meE.
He didn't believe that was the way to
get efficiency. He asked them to CO.
operate with him in a program of law
enforcement that would really improve
conditions in Atlanta, Kidding the city
as far as possible the abnormal number
of burglaries and similar crimes which
unfortunately grew up under the for
mer administration while it was de-
voting its best energies toward the
suppression of only one kind of law
breaking.

BERLIN, August 10.--Eight hun
dred and forty eight of every 1000
wounded soldiers brought into German
Hospitals not in the war zone
in August, 1914, were discharged fit for

152 died. In April the number restor-

deaths had fallen to fourteen. With
the single exception of March, the
death rate shows steady decrease,

August to April inclusive is but l.9

The home hospitals do not, of
course, receive a great number of the
severely wounded, but assuming the
number received to have been fairly
constant, the figures indicate steady
gain in surgical and medical work. In
the Crimean War, 20 per cent of the
wounded died; in the Italian war of
