CHASES BEAR, THEN

West Milford Man Had Forgot

tsy international News Service.

Toy IUAGH ildAlOlidl lNENso SNl WIZ
West Milford, y. j., Dec. 26.-John
Fly, Of this town chased a black bear
for more than half a mile. The cx-
ercise finally became too strenuous
for the animal and he came 10 stop.
Ase he did so Fly pulled the trigger.
He discovered he had forgotten to
load his rifle and returned home, COW
ering the course back in about half
the time he made going and minus
his hat and gun.
Fly was awakened by the barking
of his six dogs. He went to a win,
dow, looked ont and saw them Civ
ing battle 20 the bear which was in
the poultry yard trying to get into
the henhouse The battle between
the dogs and bear lasted long enough
for Fly to dress. Then he grabbed
his gun and when the animal saw
him the chase down country road
began.
q never got close enough to fire
until we reached some woods" Fly
said, when the bear stopped But
when I found I had forgotten to load
my gun I knew home was the place
for me and started. The bear made
after me, but gave up after he saw
the speed he was up against"
Mrs. Fly said the only manner in
which she could account for her hus
bands loss Of his hat was that his
hair stuck up on end and lifted It off.

\ DIFFERENCE.

1t is a remarkable fact that some counties possessing from two to three hundred miles of improved high ways are still talking of increasing the mileage. as Jefferson, for instance
 While other counties, with just as prosperous people living in it and possessing just as fertile land and natural resources, have practically not mile of improved highways out side of those in towns and don't care a cent about them.
 This difference in rural uplift is hard to define.
 Perhaps the reason why the coun- ties with taste of good roads want more of them so strenuously is be- cause they have experienced their value. while those who plod along with old-time sand roads haven't had an opportunity of noting how much time and energy they waste in put ting up with them.
 It is a fact however. that the good roads movement is spreading annual

ly, and in ten years there won't be a county in the country without fair supply of real roads.
NEW WAY TO CATCH FISH.

Anybody who imagines that noth- ing really new in the art of fishing has been contributed since the time of Izaak Walton-or at least, since the time of Grover Cleveland-should consider the experience of Hubbard Raymond of the Lake Keuka (N.Y0 Fishing club
 Raymond found that the black bass were not biting as they should, and after a period of profound reflection hit upon the reason. It was the heat Bass feel the hot weather as much as we do," he decided And that great truth determined, it was but step to the logical conclusion that the way to relieve the fishes was precisely the way in which humans relieve their them off.
 So the philosophic fisherman took a big cake of ice and anchored it firmly in pool where there were plenty of bass that had been refus- ing to bite. Two hours later he came along with his rod and line, and foun1 that the ice had taken effect. It had operated as a fine physical and moral bracer. The fish were energetic, am- bilious and hungry. They leaped for the bait. Within a few minutes he caught several old fellows that had been eluding him for months, and soon he had all the bass he could carry.
 Other fishermen may carry the idea still farther. Why, for instance, shouldn't the cold highball or cock tail idea be applied to piscatorfal strategy? Not that any honest fisher man would dream of undermining T fish's sobriety. But why not use cold bait? Why not offer the sweltering fish a luscious worm or bug or tad pile frozen in little chunk of ice?

FARM LOAN BOARD
 SECRETARY WARNS
 AGAINST CROOKS
Flanagan Says Solicitors Are Busy Attempting to
 Collect Money.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Secretary Flanagan of the federal farm loan board today issued a warning to farm CTS that solicitors are busy in several states without authority of the board attempting to collect money for the organization of national farm loan as- sociations.
 Such associations are authorized under the law and are to be formed by farmers who desire loans.
 "The representation by any person that any organization is now offering to make loans by authority of the farm loan board under the federal farm loan act is false," said Mir. Elan nagan, "and any attempt to collect money under such representation is fraudulent and is punishable by fine and Imprisonment"
 Dates and places for hearings by the farm loan board on the western part of it's present journey to collect information to aid in locating federal land banks were announced today. From Spokane, the board will work eastward. and hearings will be held at Kansas City, Kas., September 19, St. Louis, September 20; Louisville, Sep- tember 23, and Columbus, O., Septem- Der "A.
 The board will return to Washing ton September 26.

Official figures for olr export trade in the year ending June 30 substanti- ate the most optimistic guesses. Our foreign commerce has grown incred- ibly great In twelve months it has amounted to more than six and one half billion dollars. We have sold abroad si.334OoO.OOO worth of goods, and bought $2,19S,0OO,OOO worth, leav- ing balance in our favor of $2,136,- coo ,0OO.
 That is twice as great as our big favorable trade balance of last year. l. is nearly three and one-half times as great as our highest record before the war.
 And there are no signs of falling off, in spite of few pessimist'c prophecies, Our exports in June Of this year were $465 100000. repre- senting an increase of $200, 100000 over those of June, 1915. Orders for munitions are not coming in so plenti- fully, because the Allies are manu featuring a larger proportion of their own shells. But there is stronger demand than ever for shell steel and various other forms of finished steel
 The steel industry has not only made enormous profits, as shown by the latest report of the United States Steel corporation. but steel men show little fear of profits being curtailed The Bethlehem Steel company is planning huge expenditures for the extension of it's plant. Other indus tries reflect the optimism of this basic industry. It is possible, and even probable--if our crops turn out we'll that the next twelve months will be even more prosperous for the nation than the twelve just ended.

vices are usually the same as an indi- vidual would he entitled to, and there fore it's services are no more costly than private parties would receive with all the attending risk.
 Men of prominence and those who feel the importance Of safeguarding their estate from waste and misman- agement are now making trust com panies the executors or trustees under their wills, knowing full well the risks of private administration ars1 the benefit of corporate management.
 A trust company can do all hat 8 bank can do, all that an individual can do, and many things neither can do, all of which functions have played a part in making these institutions not only prominent in the banking world but an invaluable part of our modern civilization. They can serve you well during life; they can serve you better after death. It would be well to call on your local trust company and as- certain how, in your station in life, it can best serve you.
