THE HUNTING SEASON.
Wild Game Decreasing, Number
Hunters Out Increasing.

Hunting is not the easy and aces
sible thing it used to be. Every year
the man with the gun has to go a
longer distance from the haunts of
men. He finds wild life constantly
more depleted.
While wild game is decreasing in
quantity, the number of men out for
sport increases. States that maintain
a system of hunters licenses report
an astonishing number of applica-
tons. In some Places it seems as II
nearly every able-bodied man had
registered for these permits. In
popular hunting resorts it is getting
about as dangerous for the hunters
as for their prey.
And the trouble is not merely
that there are more hunters for less
game. In luxurious cities, there is
an unlimited market for birds, veni-
son, and other titbits. This creates
a class of market hunters. This in
cludes many irresponsibles and semi

THE SHORTAGE OF CATTLE.
Some GIVE Reason Labor Feed and
Shelter Cost Too Much.

The American Bankers Associa-
ton, at it's Kansas City convention,
has been considering the alarming
decrease in cattle production. Much
sentiment was developed in favor of
an investigation of the subject By
Congress.
Congressional Investigations com
monty provide simply lot of black
covered government reports which
few people read. However this is an
urgent subject, that some response
bic authority should take UP. Meat
prices will keep climbing until more
cattle are raised
There is a difference of opinion
among experts whether it pays to
keep cattle on the average small
farm. Little progress has been made
at restoring them to the many thou
sand farms through the Eastern and
Central and Southern states where
they used TO be kept. Yet recent
investigation by Country Life in
America seemed TO show that cattle
raising does pay. In one typical case
in the state of Delaware, profit Of
1870 was made in Is weeks on At
head of cattle, with manure enough
to fertilize sc acres of cantaloupes.
One trouble is that the modern
farmer is bewildered by the many
suggestions of the new things he
ought to take up. After reading
them all his head swims. He decides
10 keep along in the old way, at
which he is now doing quite we'll.
1t would seem as if the great cor
porations concerned in meat produc-
ton should be interested TO work for
a bigger supply. They must see that
meat assumption per capita will
surely fall off at present prices. If
they would start lot of demonstra
ton farms, they could show the
farmer just how cattle could be rails
ed most profitably. Probably they
could prove that it is possible for the
small farmer to make a success of it.
When asked why they do not raise
more cattle, farmers usually say that
labor and feed and shelter cost too
much. In the most fertile sections
land can probably be used to better
advantage in raising crops. But else
where there are enormous quantities
of half used soil where the expense
for feed must be greatly reduced.

Married at Fort Atkinson.

Tuesday morning, at 700 O'Clock,

Their of the groom, and Miss Bethel

ing the services at the church the

of Mr.. and Mrs f. ]. Huber and is

Dog Recovered Lost Watch.

Albert Schmidt has hunting dog
which he would not trade for bas-
ket of pears since yesterday morning.
While in the DR.. Hurd pasture early
in the morning Albert lost his watch
and after a long search for the time
piece gave it up as a hopeless task.
Later he took his dog to the pasture
and after throwing his knife several
times and having the animal recover
it he made a pretense of throwing it
again. The dog began patient hunt
for the article and after a long and
careful search in the grass and weeds
triumphantly returned with the lost
watch, which she evidently recog-
nized from the scent as belonging TO
her r-Northwood Anchor.

THE LIFE INSURANCE. AGENT.
Might be Little Persistent, But
Arguing in Good Cause.


The interests and future Of life in
surance work were discussed at the
convention held at Boston few days
ago of the National Association OF
Insurance Agents. The opinion was
confidently expressed that the life
insurance business as now organized
has nothing to fear from the compe-
tition of state insurance.
Efforts have been made in some
states through banks and other agen-
cies to establish what is called lover
the counter" insurance. If every one
needing insurance would walk up to
an Office and take it out without soil
citation, there would be big econo-
my. But like other ideas that omit
advertising, it won't work univers-
ally while human nature remains as
it is.
\ common view of insurance was
expressed by the man who said 81
don't think much of an investment
where | have to die to get my mo-
ney.
There are a great many men hav-
ing good incomes who have made
no effort to secure protection for
their families in case of death. They
think in a happygo lucky way that
their life and health will endure in
definitely. This type of man would
never walk up to a state or bank in
surance Office and ask for a policy. Ii
he ever takes one out, it will be due
to the persuasive powers OF some
agent.
So it is likely, as the speakers re-
ferred to thought, that the life insur-
ance man Will live long and flourish.
He is bit over-persistent, and may
talk a little too long. he is certain
ly Johnny on the spot" and if he
reads an item to the effect that you
are engaged to be married, he will
probably call around in about three
minutes and deliver a fervent ora
ton. But he is arguing in a good
cause. With great many men who
can't save in any other way, an en-
dowment policy is the foundation of
a bank account. And many depen-
dent families today owe their secur-
ty to his determined efforts.

LEADERSHIP FOR BOYS.
Great Difficulty in Securing Scout
masters.

Organizations for boys are one of
the typical ideas of the times. A
great army of youngsters will gath
.er this fall in the Boy Scouts, Wood
craft League, Knights of King Ar
thur and so on. The Boy Scouts of
America alone include 100000
members. The time when the boy
used to sit down under the evening
lamp and read the Rollo books has
gone by. To keep him out of the
loafing hangouts, he has been turn
ed into young clubman.
But it's one thing to get the boys
into some of the many useful socie-
ties. and it's quite another to have
II work out some positive benefit.
Leaders of the Boy Scout movement
report great difficulty in securing
"Scoutmasters." To fill this lack
they are starting at Boston this fall
a school for scout leadership, and
receiving applications for mem ber-
ship from all over the country.
As things now are, many of these
boy organizations run in a hapha-
zard fashion. Very few men have
the gift for work with boys. Young
America is a tough problem to han
die. He thinks quick. He has a
very keen sense of humor. He feels
a desire to utter his witticisms at the
most inopportune times. His little
spirit boils over with fun, and he
wants to make game of all drill or
class work.
The average man has to think very
actively to subdue these resource
full minds and squirming muscles. II
takes an al1rt brain, an ingenious
imagination, tolerant spirit, and a
firm will. Most men feel utterly ex-
hausted after an evening of it.
There is great need for organiza-
tons to keep the boys off the streets
and to provide outlet for their super
fuous energy. A man, ministers,
church workers, and school teachers
viii have to make more of study
OF this work. Probably the clergy
man can exert more influence in this
way than by the most exhaustive stu
dy Of theology.

Migrants who pay no attention {
oar m la VIC

Migrants who pay no attention to
game laws.
In land near stable towns the
spread of the No Trespass sign has
removed much OF the joy of the
woods Owners of timber land are
getting tired of seeing valuable trees
burned up by fires set by careless
campers. 1t is very nice to be libe?-
al to the public. But to many men
standing timber is their principal
capital. A single match can con-
sumo it all, and there is no use in
taking these chances.
There is a growing sentiment IN
favor of suppressing the shooting of
birds and other game for the mar
kets. Every bit of wild life now left
is needed for other purposes. 1t is
the property Of the whole commu-
nifty, and should not be shot and sold
as a matter of business. 1t should
be kept as a source of the pleasure
and recreation of genuine sport. The
state cannot afford to permit the
destruction of any living thing that
protects crops from harmful pests.
