MIGRATORY BIRD LAW
WILL BE ENFORCED
No Waterfowl Can Be Shot in the
Northern Zone, After
january Is.

From the number of letters which
they have received on the subject re-
Gently, officials Of the agricultural de-
partment believe that spOrtsmen may
Internationally violate the provisions
Of the federal migratory bird law
which 1t is the purpose of the govern
ment to enforce rigidly. Under the
provisions of his law no waterfowl
can be shot in the northern or breed
ing zone after Jan. 10, except in New
Jersey, where the season extends TO
Feb. 1. In most Of the southern or
Wintering zone the season closes Feb.
1, but extends to Feb. Is in Florida,
Georgia, and South Carolina. These
regulations were proclaimed on Oct
1, 1914. No change has since been
made IN them, and no change is like
" TO be made until the constitution
ality of the law has been passed on by
the United States supreme court. AS
matter of fact, the law provides that
aH- changes in the regulations must
be considered for a period OF 80 days
and then must be approved and sign
ed by the president before they be-
come effective. 1t is thus evident
that there is no possibility that the
prohibition Of spring shooting will be
in any way modified this year.
The officials of the department
who are intrusted with the enforce
ment of the law are anxious that
these facts be impressed upon the
people because it is the intention to
investigate carefully all reports of
violations made to the department.
inspectors and wardens and to
prosecute all such violations in the
federal courts In this connection il
is pointed out that prosecutions may
be instituted at any time within three
years Of the offense.

MING-STOCKS--G GARDENS
All Classes of Livestock are
Showing Increase, Government
Bureau Investigation Shows

For the first time in many years,
information collected by the depart
ment Of agriculture shows that all
classes of live stock in the United
States are increasing in numbers
Thus the real facts contradict. abso-
lutely, sensational reports that prices
for meat and shoes would rise to un-
precedented figures in the immediate
future. 1t has even been said that a
government statistician predicted
meat at 90 cents a pound and shoes
at $40 a pair within the next two
years. Such a prediction, the real
government statisticians say. is quite
unWarranted.
On Jan. I, for example, the number
OF beef cattle showed an increase of
"a per cent over the number a year
ago. and an actual increase Of 1872
600 head Hitherto the number of
beef cattle in the United States has
declined steadily since 1910. There
are also more mich COWS in the
country than last year. the increase
being 2.5 per cent. or in numbers
$4,000. Swine, however, showed the
greatest increase Of all classes-9 9
per cent. on Jan. 1. 1914, there were
only 58,933,000 swine in the country;
on Jan. 1, 1915, 64,61S,00O. This is
accounted for by the fact that the
production of swine can be increased
more rapidly that that Of other classes
Of live stock and consequently an en-
larged demand can be met more
readily.
The prediction of 50-cent meat and
$40 shoes was accompanied by the
declaration that France alone has
taken from America nearly 300, 900
horses within the last five months
and that the other countries at war
have drawn upon our resources in the
same proportion. The facts are that
more horses were on the farms of the
United States on Jan. 1, 1915, than
there were year before, the increase
being $4,000 head, or IL per cent.
So far from France alone having
taken 100000 horses from us, the
total exports since the war began have
certainly been much less than 100, 900
and very likely not over 200 Since
there are approximately 100000
horses altogether in the United
States, the drain on account of the
war is scarcely alarming.
1T is. in fact, pointed out by gov
eminent statisticians that the market
value Of farm horses has actually de-
clined to such an extent that the av-
erage is now about Sc a head less than
year ago. This decline is most
noticeable in the cotton states and in
those states which make a business of

CONFESSES TO
SHOOTING BROTHERS

Clyde Slower, the negro under arrest

OATS INTENDED FOR
EXPORT ARE SEIZED
Found to- BE AduIterated Say Officials
Will Put Stop to
Practice.

Seventy-five carloads of oats intend
ed for export have recently been
seized by the federal authorities be-
cause they were found TO be adulter-
ated within the meaning of the food
and drugs act. The adulteratiOn
charged is the addition of feed barley
or water. or both. Under certain cir
cumstances adulteratiOn in these
ways may be SO profitable that it is
believed to be at times a common
practice among grain shippers. The
government, however, is determined
that the practice shall cease at once,
and field Representatives of the de-
partment have all been instructed to
exercise the utmost vigilance in de-
tecting future shipments adulterated
in this way.

contains material percentages of
weed seeds, foreign grains, and dust,
and the addition 10 oats of such a
product is held to be a violation of
the food and drugs act. The addition
OF water TO oats arises from the fact
that the grain is sold by weight In
vestigatiOns Of the department OF ag-
riculture have revealed the fact that
water is sometimes added in the
amount Of from two To four per cent.
In the opinion of the government
officials there is no reason why either

NATURAL CAUSES
STOP OUTBREAK
OF GREEN BUG
Weather Conditions Favorable
for Pest But Action of An
other Parasite Helps to OFF,
set Its Effect.

Two natural causes this year have
apparently prevented a general out
b.eAk Of that dangerous pest, the
green bug. Present weather condi-
tions are most favorable for such an
outbreak and the pest appeared some
time ago in volunteer oats in South
Carolina However. one Of the de-
partments investigator has been go
ing over the grain fields in Texas
where the pest usually first makes its
appearance whenever there Is a wide
spread invasion. AS a result, the en-
tomologists see no possibility or an
outbreak in the southwest the COM
ing spring. This is true, although the
green bug seems Omnipresent Gin
very limited numbers) throughout the
fields which the investigator eXamin-
cd.
The two natural checks which seem
10 have prevented an outbreak this
season are the following:
% A certain parasite developing
on another pest, namely, the oat
aphis, occurred in such numbers as
TO overwhelm the green bug as well
as the oat aphis. This is an unusual
occurrence which previously has new
er been noticed by the department s
investigators.
90 Last falls dry weather in the
southwest hindered the growth of
voluntary grain in the fields so that
almost none of it came up. The green
bug. therefore. had little opportunity
10 develop until sOwn grain gave him
a chance.
In (1) we see a strange instance of
a pest being a benefactor. in that the
Oat aphis caused enough parasites to
develop 10 destroy not only itself but
another dangerous insect. This is no
reason, however. for the farmer to
wish for the increase Of the Oat aphis.
for although that insect does not do
nearly the damage which the green
bug does, unforeseen depredatiOns
might result if it's numbers were
greatly multiplied.
In CD we see the influence Of dry
weather I'm preventing growth OF vol
unteer grain at a time when the green
bugs numbers had been enormously
reduced by 90.
