kota v bo are ardent spcrtsmen
and this paper would like to hear
what they think of applying the
Journals argument to South Da'
kota as we'll as Minnesota. The
Journal; in it's discussion of the
way to save the prairie chicken
says:
From the. chicken hunters ir

er than ever. Many regions
where the pinnated grouse were

ers note with alarm that most Of
the birds they shoot are old ones
and that there is a great scarci.
ty of young prairie chickens.
This is indeed a significant
symptom, for it means that the
species is not reproducing itself
and that unless something dras.
tic is done it will in many local.
ties become extinct, as it has al
ready become extinct in other
localities that were once favorite
chicken hunting grounds.
Much as the chicken hunters
would regret the shutting off Of
their favorite sport in the fall.
it is more and more plain that
a close season on pinnated grouse
to run for term of years must
be declared Immediately. This
was DR.. William 7. Hornaday's
earnest advice, when he was
here recently, and though there
were murmers Of dissent from
some of the sportsmen. this
years shooting is making many
converts.
The serious aspect of the sit
uation is that, once the pinnated
grouse is gone, it is gone for
good. No way has yet been
discovered to breed the bird in
in sufficient numbers
to restock a depleted country.
And once the number OF the
species diminish to a certain
point, their natural enemies are
likely to be equal to the job of
wiping til m out completely,
even if the man with the gun is
debarred by law.
In tt se circumstances, no
time is to be lost. The legislature
ought to declare a close season
of at least FIVE years and prefer
ably of ten. The prairie chicken
is too valuable a feature of
Minnesota wild life to be aban-
doned to fate which overlook its
cousin, the sage hen, in the East
and which has overtaken other
species that have fallen victim
to the gunshot.

Below Is reprinted from the
Aberdeen News, an editorial or
the prairie chickens. The scar.
city of that game bird has start
ed a discussion over the western
states this fall which may con.
tinue up to the next session of
the Legislatures. when possibly
something may be done to relieve
the situation.
Certainly there should be an
extended closed season and
thereafter the matter should rest
with the State Game Warden
and a committee of sportsmen
from over the state.
They should be given full
power to open or close the sea-
sons at the expiration of a five
or ten year period and to make
the open season even shorter if
desirable. The reason why this
should be done is apparent. A
particularly severe winter fol-
lowed by a cold and rainy spring
and summer, like the past sea-
son. might easily destroy all the
increase Of ten year period, of
closed hunting. Every one ad-
mits that there should have been
no hunting this fall, tho there
were plenty of old birds in the
country last fall. Had the State
Game Warden been empowered
to declare a closed season this
fall, how much better it wonld
have been for all concerned.
Save Prarie Chicken
IN South Dakota, the prairie
chicken is scarcer than ever this
year, due to the unfavorable sea
son which prevents eggs hatch

merce in Tucson at 11:3O tomorrow morning, the riders will begin to sift into the valley shortly after one o'clock. Those who have tired out the road since the rains of last week declare that the. course is faster than it was in March, when Joe OCOnnell rode the distance in hours 13 min- Utes. Given an even chance with O'Connell, the winner will drive past the final check at the southeast cor ner of the fair grounds tomorrow aft ernoon at -2:45. The fact twenty miles of the road between Florence and Canyon De orc is cut for placing culverts will not slow up the race, it is thought, as speed can be made elsewhere Crandall, local rider, said yesterday he could average 60 miles an hour between the state nigh way and Tempe, and of course from there in, the road is easy.
 At the asylum gate the race course leaves the Tempe highway and strikes north a mile to McDowen road. It follows Mcdowell clear to the finish line at the fair grounds.

PATROL SYSTEM OF

 FOR THIS COUNTRY

That the patrol system of caring for roads may be installed in Ari- zona, is the presumption. now that the late Flagstaff conference is be- ginning to realize upon some of the effort it expended. To further the adoption of this system, the good roads association Is sending out copies Of instructions to patrolmen by q North Carolina superintendent, who has an ideal system of roads, Some of the instructions are as follows usable by others than road work ers):
 Inspect your road, it's entire sec tion during rainy day and locate all pond holes
 Use the road drag immediately af- ter a rain.
 Fill all depressions with good ma terial.
 On no account use worn out ma terial. sod or sand from ditches.
 Remove all glass, tin cans, nails, old iron, etc, from the road bed
 Renew all defective plant at cul- yerts when necessary.
 Should your road surface be very rough. 9 spike toothed harrow used while the road is wet will improve an earth, sand-clay. top-son or gravel surfaye.
 Cut the weeds both sides of the road. Use a moving machine for this purpose if practical
 Cut all brush at inside of the curves and at railway crossings and culverts.
 Remove the ridge between the wheel rut and the gutter by usingg the one-horse cultivator and then use the drag to push the material toward the ditch.
 See that all culverts are clear with outlets and inlets in good order.
 Renew all sign boards. mile-posts. etc. when necessary and give the 'traveling public all the advice in re- gard 10 the routes within your power.
 Receive all information and criti- cism from the general public in T courteous manner.
