FISHING WITHOUT
LICENSES COSTLY
Frank 0. Morse and Ernest PTouty Had
Only One Small Porch to Show
for $3.50 Paid Ont.

Failure to obtain fishing licenses that
were effective in 1917 cost Frank O.
Morse of Brattlcboro and Ernest
Prouty of West Brattlcboro 5000 each
in the municipal court yesterday after
noon. They went fishing yesterday aft
ernoon near the mouth of Broad brook
and one small perch had been the re-
suit of their combined efforts when
Game Warden T. II. Metcalf happened
along. He asked them for their fishing
licenses.
No official papers concerning the
light to catch fish that bore the date Of
1917 could they produce and the war
den explained to them that such viola
tion Of the law. coming under his OBJ
servation, required their appearance in
court.
C. Menzies Miller, Judge. after ac-
| eepting their pleas of guilty of fishing
| without licenses, imposed the fine re
quircd by the statute of SO and costs
| Of Si.65 in each case, which made the
total cost of one small perch 5000
| which is going some even iii these days
| Of the high cost of living.
The men had no defense to offer ex
| cept neglect to secure licenses that
would permit them to fish i'll 1917.

PLAN TO GET A GOOD STAND OF ALFALFA

grown on the farm for several years.
The incubation Is a simP'e matter
and easily done. During the spring
or summer distribute from the rear end
of wagon 300 or 400 pounds per acre
of sweet clover or alfalfa soil, secured
from sweet clover or from a good
alfalfa field.
Drainage.-Alfalfa will not do well
in sour, wet, sOggy ground. If not nat
urally drained it should'be tile-drained.
I. Cultivate-Cultivate and cult
vate both ways. Don't be afraid of
hurting the alfalfa. There is nothing
equal to spring-tooth harrow for
cultivating alfalfa. 1t destroys the
weeds and especially blue grass which
is alfalfa's greatest enemy, and forms
mulch, keeping the ground from get
ting hard. Cultivate in the fall; cul-
tivate early in the spring; cultivate
after each cutting except after the first
cutting in the spring when you won't
have time. Begin cultivating the sec
ond season after sowing.

PLAN TO RID SHEEP
OF ALL PARASITES
Drench of Copper SuIphate Has
Been Found Most Satisfactory
at Ohio Station.

Sheepmen having fiocks infested
with stomach and tapeworms may free
the animals of such pests by treatment
before turning out to spring pasture.
For this purpose a drench of copper
sulphate has been found most satisfac-
tory in the flocks at the Ohio expert
ment station.
Two fluid ounces of a solution made
by dissolving an ounce of copper sui
plate (blue vitriol) in two quarts of
water is sufficient for a yearling, and a
two-year-old sheep needs three fluid
ounces. A long-necked bottle or rub
Der tube and funnel may be used to
give the dose. Most effective results
follow when the sheep are tasted for
a day both before and after treatment.
Water should not be given for a few
hours preceding and following the dos
ing.
Digestive disturbances, poor appe-
tite, loss of flesh and general weakness
indicate the presence of worms.
Lambs are most seriously affected.
Kidding the sheep of worms in the
spring will result in fewer losses in
the lamb crop.
