letter FROM
STATE CAPITOL
ocEANA soLoN WANTS STATE TO
UTILIZE FEDERAL AID FOR
BUILDING GOOD ROADS.
SALARY RAISES PROPOSED
Bill Introduced to Permit Each County
to Say When It Wanted Closed
Seasons On Game or Fish.
(By w. L. CALNON.)

Lansing-Senator James c. Wood,
of Manistique, believes he has found
the way to rid the legislature of the
mass of small game and fish bills that
appear regularly at every session and
which in reality are special acts, ap-
plying to only some small section, or
single stream or lake. His idea, which
will be presented to the present legis.
lature in a bill, would strengthen the
game warden's department and put
the administration of the game and
fish laws more firmly in the hands OF
the game warden.
Senator Wood declares that many
of the fish bills, which relate to closed
seasons in one stream or another or
In one lake or another, really belong
under one general head and with the
use of a little common sense could
be administered by the game depart.
ment in one general way. Spawning
seasons are weeks apart, for instance,
as between streams In the southern
tier of Michigan counties and those in
the upper peninsula. Scores of bills
come into the legislature to have par
ticular dates set for particular streams
or lakes to procure closed season
covering the spawning period.
Let the game department apply the
closed season rules to each and every
part of the state according to the
spawning time. and care for the whole
matter in this way, Is Senator Wood s
idea. He also would permit each
county to say when 1t wanted closed
seasons on any special kind of game
or birds and to so notify the game
department Unless the game and fish
laws are wisely administered in some
general and responsible way, Senator
Wood declares, conservation ideas
might as we'll be forgotten as far as
efficient results are concerned, for the
game will be wiped out and the fish
supply depleted.

TO LIVE LONG!

A recipe given by a famous. physician
for long life was: Weep the kidneys in
good order Try to eliminate thru the
skin and intestines the poisons that
otherwise clog the kidneys. Avoid eat
ing meat as much as possible; avoid too
much salt, alcohol, tea. Try milk and
vegetable diet. Drink plenty of water,
and exercise so you sweat = the skin
helps to eliminate the toxic poisons
and uric acid"

New Bills Introduced.

One of the most important bills in
troduced was Representative Thomas
Reads, of Oceana county, to take adj
vantage of the federal governments
aid In trunk line road building. This
bill would appropriate $225,000 year
for the next two years for trunk line
roads, the government to contribute
an equal sum. The Read bill proposes
way to raise the state fund accord
ing to the size of each county and
township contributing.
liner this plan a county which has
100000 worth of assessed value for
each mile of trunk line road, will pay
so per cent of the amount of state aid
on its trunk line roads and the per-
centage to be paid would be graded
down to rs per cent in the case of
counties having only 100000 of as.
sessed valuation for each mile of
trunk line road.
Representative George Leland. of
Allegan county, has presented a bill
to standardize Michigan apples that
are packed for shipment to market.
The bill prescribes four classes Of ap-
pies: Michigan standard fancy; stand
ard A: standard b; and ungraded.
Packers would have to brand their
shipments accoring to their class and
stamp their names and addresses on
the outside of the package also. The
state dairy and food department would
be provided for violations.
A bill to appropriate $4,000 for the
use of the state board of agriculture to
find the causes of contagious diseases
among bees and suppress the diseases
was INTRODUCED by Representative A. L.
Petermann, Of Houghton, by request.
Some of the members thought the bill
was joke, intended to "sting" some
one, but others insisted that there Ia
danger of bees being wiped out entire
ly because OF foul broods unless some
thing is done Anyway, the bill went
to committee for consideration.
Representative Wells, Of Cass coun-
ty, wants all private banks put under
the supervision of the state banking
department and compelled to give
bonds. A request to print his bill Is
before the committee on printing. Rep
resentative Glaspie, OF Oakland, asks
in bill that the annual financial
statement and proceedings Of the an
nual meetings Of all graded school dis
tricts be published in the newspapers.
A standard tread for draft sleighs

KILL PECAN TREE GIRDlERS
Gather Up and Burn All Twigs That Fall to Ground-Do Not Allow to
 Breed Unchecked.

In answer to the many inquiries from all parts of the state in regard to tree girdling insect which does great deal of damage to pecan trees, R. w. Harmed of the chronological de partment Mississippi A. and NJ. col lege, offers the following advice and suggestions as to the best means of combating the pest:
 The pecan tree girdler is very easy to control. as the eggs of the insect are laid in holes punctured by the fe- male beetle just below the buds on the twig that is cut off. The larvae, If allowed to hatch, will crawl into the ground to pupate, therefore it is necessary to gather up and burn all twigs that fall to the ground or that break and hang from the trees. If this system is carefully followed each fall the pecan tree girdler will do very little damage, but if allowed to breed unchecked 1t is likely to cause con siderable loss"

BRONZE TURKEY BEST KNOWN
Male Bird of Breed Sometimes Reaches Enormous Size-Do Not
 Bear Confinement We'll.

The largest and perhaps the best known of the domesticated turkey is the Bronze, sometimes called the Nam moth Bronze. The male bird of this breed reaches an enormous size some times. The standard weight for the tom is 36 pounds and for the hen 20 pounds.
 Generally the heavier weights are found among the breeding birds. and are not for sale As matter of eX perience breeders find that the great est demand for the holiday trade is for the smaller birds suitable for a din- her for an ordinary family.
 The plumage of the Bronze is very attractive. The feathers are bronze or dull black with bands of white across. The bronze tint gives pleasing color effects.
 One common objection has been that the Bronze hen Is not very good layer But it is generally found that
The Monticellonian., 1917-02-22

laying is largely an individual char acteristie. Many prefer the Bronze and generally this breed by far out numbers the others on the holiday market.
 The Bronze turkeys are close de- scendants of the American wild tur key, which is still found in some parts of our country. The young of the domesticated birds soon show ten dency to wander in search of food. They can fly to an astonishing height when it becomes necessary.
 The young turkeys do not bear con finement well. For anything like sat isfactory results they should range in the fields and pastures. They are very useful in keeping down insects that destroy crops, and many farmers wives have sold enough turkeys dur ing the season preceding the holidays to provide comforts and convenienees for the home.

BENEFITS OF GROUND FEEDS
Advantage in Grinding kafr, Milo and Feterita Grains for Horses,
 Cows, and Sheep.

The feed grinder is considered an economical investment on many farms where live stock is kept. By grind ing the grains they may be mixed and fed to better advantage in many in stances
 Where old mares are kept to raise colts they will thrive better if the corn is ground. By grinding kafir, milo and feterita these grain sorghums may be fed to better advantage to hogs, horses, cows, sheep, goats, etc. The size of the sorghum grains make them unsuit- able for feeding whole. They should be ground and fed as meal.
 Hogs, where there are slops, may be fed kafir, milo, feterita, etc, in kitch- en slops. Thus if the grains are ground they are more convenient for feeding.
 Most farmers have gas engines or tractors, or windmills. hence the aues- tion of power for running the feed grinder Is not a serious one.

The construction of the excellent portable panel fence illustrated is de- scribed as follows by William Deit- rich:
 Construct a table four feet wide and + feet long. (With little more care and inconvenience barn floor may be substituted for the table) At one end of the table and at right angles with the same, nail piece of straight board, c. At the front side of the table, or the side of the workman, nail two blocks q. made of two=inch lum- Der, so that they are at right angles with c, to form supports for the lower board of the panel and the lower ends of the two end crossbars. Then take two-inch blocks, f, e, 2. that are about two inches wide and nail them on the table, so that their outside ends are II inches from the proposed ends of the panel, and arrange them so that 1t is nine inches from the upper side of q to the upper side of f, II inches from the upper side of to the upper side of c, and Ii inches from the upper side of Q to the upper side of z.
