grass have shown it to be about the
same in chemical composition as John

birds, which are said to be fast be
coming extintc in this state.
Those who are following the work
of the legislature believe the bill will
be passed without great deal of op
position. Farmers are fast becomins
inimical to all hunting and regard hun
tiers as trespassers. They also arc
friends OF the quail, education having
taught them that the game birds are
enemies of many insel8 which are
injurious.to crops. Aside from the good
the birds do, most farmers like To
have the Bob Whites" on their prem
ises- Consequently the proposed Law

element.
Under the present law quail may
be shot from Nov l to Dec. Is. How.
ever it is unlawful to shoot them on
any public highway. The limit on quail
is fifteen a day, and no more than
twenty-five birds must be in the DOS.

CANNOT ESCAPE TO EUROPE
FugitiVes From Justice Unable Any
More to Get There From the
United States.

London, Jan. 2l.--Amerlcan rugl
tiyes from justice can't escape tc
Europe any more They have to
prove too many things about them
selves that it's inconvenient to prove
before they can get either in or out.
Probably the only Americans arriv
ing in Europe nowadays without first
asking permission of Uncle Sam are
occasionally, sailors who ship out OF
American ports under careless skip
pers. AS soon as they set foot or
European shores they are arrested and
held until their ship leaves for q
neutral port.
But old pre-war brand of extradition
which provided its almost daily yarn
for American and European papers
is dead.

ally spent $2,125, 100000 OF which
1862 100000 were for ordinary and
$1,473,000.O00 for war expenses.
Ordinarily there would have been
surplus of $92,0O0,0O0. The war
ministry accounted for $1.39S, 600, 600.
Needy families of soldiers received
$SS,000,O00 of this amount. Tho Min
istry of Marine spent s75,000,O00.
Other items directly due to the
war included S51, 100000 for issuing
and paying interest on three war
loans; $4,200,000 for transportation
and helping emigrants to repatriate;
$1,400,009 to place the Italian Red
Sea colony in state Of defence and
100000 for the fishermen of the
Adriatic coast. The 1856 budget
closed with deficit of $152 100000.
In 1867 the army budget was in
creased by $9Oo,OO0,OOO and the navy
by s63,600000. The payment OF in
terest on war loans amounted to $751;
100000; $4,4O0,000 went towards re-
patriated Italians; $1,000,000 towards
strengthening further the Red Sea
colony; 100000 to the fishermen;
5000, goo to war orphans. The total
expense was s1.796, 100000 and the
deficit $652, 400, 900.
The general economic conditions
may be considered almost as good.
Probably, much less distress has
been caused by the war in Italy than
in other belligerent countries. Since
the wars beginning Italians have
worked more, produced more and
saved more than ever before
The populations thriftiness and
toll are proven by the fact that, while
the savings banks had $1519, 000,0 600
on deposit on June 80, 1914, the pres
ent deposits considerably exceed ST.
600,000,000 This, in spite of the
higher cost of living and the war
loans, which has absorbed millions
of dollars of small savings. Besides,
the remittances from emigrants have
almost ceased, as there are now only
$4,000 emigrants abroad, compared
with 100000 in 1918. In 1916 i'm
