MIGRATORY BIRD LAW
CONTINUES IN FORCE

Washington, ID. ca misleading
statement has recently become cur
rent in newspapers OF the Mississippi
Valley and elsewhere, 10 the effect
that the Department OF Agriculture
has suspended the enforcement Of
the Federal regulations under the
Migratory Bird Law and by this
means has enabled sportsmen, under
State laws, TO shoot wild fowl the
coming spring.
Under the Federal regulations as
they now stand, the season on all
migratory wild fowl is closed until
next autumn throughout the United
States. Federal inspectors and war
dens are required, and others inter-
ested in the protection OF wild fowl
are requested. 10 report 10 the De-
partment OF Agriculture all cases OF
violations OF the regulations, in Or
der that proper action may be taken.

tions. Doubtless the erroneous i'm
preston. on which the newspaper
statements are based. has grown out
OF the pendency OF litigation involv-
ing the constitutionality OF the Act
OF Congress approved March 1, 1913,
under which the regulations were
promulgated. The lower Federal
courts disagreed as TO the validity Of
the statute and the issue was car
ried 10 the Supreme Court OF the
United States. The case was argued
in the Supreme Court in October,
1915. but has not been decided. Fol-
lowing the lower court decisions,
Congress appropriated money for the
purpose Of continuing the enforce
ment OF the law. The Department OF
Agriculture is bound TO report 10 the
Department OF Justice violations OF
the regulations IL the Supreme Court
should declare the law constitutional.
All persons should, therefore, be
warned OF the danger they incur
from failure TO abide by the regula-
tiOns.

Alcohol and Pneumonia

The United States Public Health Service brands
strong drink the efficient ally OF pneumonia. 1t

Attacks Upon the French In the Forest
In Woevre District Falls Down
Nov Extend Their Lines Toward
the West.
London, Feb. 29.-Fighting fever.
ishly against the onrushing hosts Of
self-sacrificing Germans, the French
have temporarily, at least, admins
tered a severe check to the army Of
the crown prince attacking the great
fortress Of verdun from the north and
east.
An oficial Communication issued by
the Paris war once declares that at
tacks by the Germans to the north Of
the city were driven back by the
French fire and counter attacks.
Hand-to-hand encounters still are
occurring continuously to the west Of
Fort Douaumont and the Germans
were driven from . redoubt Of that
fort which they had captured. At
tacks by the Germans upon the French
in the forest in the Woevre district
above verdun also has fallen down
under . fierce French counter attack,
the French war ONCE adds.
The German offensive, however, in
the district about verdun is assuming
wider scope and importance each
hour and despite their severe reverses
which have driven them back many
hundreds Of yards, their impetuous
drive against verdun has by no means
been broken down.
The Germans have extended their
lines north Of verdun toward the west,
the loop of the Meuse river around
Champaneuville having been cleared
Of the French. according TO the ON
cial statement Of the German war Of
fee. There has also been Q slight ad-
vance Of the Germans southwark in
the direction Of vachenauvills and
Bras near the river.
Aggressive action also has been de-
veloped by the Germans IN the Cham
payne district, where the Teutons. &C
cording to Berlin. have stormed and
captured nearly . mile of French
trenches. The new movement in the
Champagne is much nearer Paris than
is the attack upon verdun. tho for
mer being approximately 100 miles
from the French capital while Verdun
is 140 miles away.
