ANGLERS ARE PLUCKING
FISH IN LARGE NUMBER
Splendid Stories of Prowess Are
Being Backed Up With
Copious Strings

Anglers of Pennsylvania are in a happy
mood these days on account of the proposed
nshermenS license tax failing to pass the
legislature. The measure was defeated ~
an overwhelming vote the other day wafn
mnety-nine members opposed 1t and forty
esht voted for it.
The defeated bill, which was to have
charged all fishermen 81 for a license fee,
was opposed virtually by every sporting or
sanization in the State, and the move of the
political leaders stamping out this unneces-
sary expense marked a big victory for the
nshing public of the Keystone State
Wildwood was the mecca for many local
nshermen yesterday and, to say the least,
.he quaker City anglers were well rewarded
Ior their trip to the shore August Hart
mann, of Sixth and Market streets, had
real day with the line. Fishing from the
Wildwood ocean pier, he hooked twenty
SIX kinghsh and croakers. The fish weighed
from two TO three pounds each. W. Wanger
and Richards also fished in Hartmann's
party and they pulled in fifteen and
~enty-one, respectively.
Two big drumfish also were caught at
wildwood One was hooked off the pier and
we other by a surfcaster They weighed
around forty pounds.
Dr. B. c. Ingersoll is claiming the fishing
championship of the Seven-mile Beach. A
Jew days ago he bagged fifty kingfish and
eroakers.
There appears to be good fishing at all
Neshore points, most every one returning
WITH plenty Of FISH.

| from grass pastures the flow of milk is
! increased and its quality improved. 9th
err conditions being normal, this increase
in milk production will continue through
out the summer as the plants produce an
abundance OF green forage during the
hot dry months. If pastures are han
died properly they will carry at least
one mich COW to the acre during the
summer months. Tainting of milk and
butter, sometimes reported, may be
avoided by taking the cows off the pas
ture two hours before milking and keep
ing them off until after milking the fol-
lowing morning.
Excellent for Hogs.
Sweet clover has proved to be an ex-
cellent pasturage crop for hogs. 1t is
usually seeded alone and pastured for
two seasons. The hogs may be turned
on the fields the first year as soon az
the plants have made a six-inch growth.
From this time until late fall an abund-
anee of forage is produced as pasturing
induces the plants to send out many
tender, succulent branches. Pasturing
the second season may begin as soon as
the growth starts in the spring. If the
field is not closely grazed the second sea
son it is advisable TO clip it occasionally,
leaving an eight-inch stubble, so as to
produce more succulent growth.
An acre of sweet clover pasture ordi-
narily will support 20 to 80 shotes, in ad
dition TO furnishing a light cutting of
hay. For the best growth of the hogs
they should be fed each day two pounds /
of grain per hundredweight of the stock.
Hogs are very fond of sweet clover roots
and should be ringed before being turned |
on the pasture The tendency TO root
may generally be overcome by adding
some protein to the grain ration. Meat
meal serves this purpose very well.
Sheep Relish Sweet Clover.
Sheep relish sweet clover and make
rapid gains when pastured on it, Care
must be taken to see that pastures are
not overstocked with sheep, as they are
likely to eat the plants so close to the
ground as to kill them. This is especial
" true the first year before the plants
have formed crown buds. Yellow bien-
nal sweet clover probably will not suffer
rom this cause as much as the white
species, because the plants make a more
presding growth and are not likely to
,e eaten so closely to the ground.

Better Monuments.

We have frequently called attention in
these pages to the evil of the repeated
duplication of stock forms of monument
al work in our cemeteries. One of the
strongest evidences of the extent of this
evil of duplication is found in the fact
that most of the leading cemeteries are
using every means ts discourage the du
plieation of monuments already on the
grounds, and some of them even go so
far as to absolutely forbid by rule the
duplication of any monument already
erected
We have before us the rule book of a
leading southern cemetery, which reads
in plain words as follows: mo exact
duplication of any monument or mauso.
leum already erected in the cemetery
shall be allowed" 1t is only question
Of time when cemeteries will become
more and more particular about the kind
of monuments that are erected and about
the practice of copying other peoples
designs instead of erecting original work.
The monument dealer who is going to
do the business of the future is the one
who prepares himself to measure up to
standards of memorial art and
to produce original, individual work for
each customer.
We have also frequently called atten
ton to the need for better and simpler
small monuments to be made of one
kind of material and executed in one
style of finish. In the same rule book
referred to above we find another section
which reads: "All parts of the monu-
ment must be of the same material and
grade of material This is evidently
intending to discourage the practice of
spelling good looking monuments by put
ting cheap and overgrown bases under
them The most important thing in the
business to-day is to educate
ourselves to design and build better

require them and the public is going 10

Iment dealers to get prepared TO build

swEET-cLovER PASTURE.
Splendid Pasture Crop from Early Spring
to Late Fall.


With the exception Of alfalfa on fertil
soils, no other leguminous crop will fur
nish as much nutritious pasturage from
early spring until late fall az swee
clover, when il is properly handled, Liy'
stock thrive on il. Animals which hav'
never been fed sweet clover may refus,
to eat 1t at first, but this distaste car
be overcome by turning them on the
pasture as soon as the plants start
growth. There is practically no danger
from bloat from sweet clover, according
TO farmers bulletin $50, sweet clover
utilization, which has just been issued
by the United States department of agri.
culture.
When sweet clover has been seeded
two years in succession on separate
fields, the fields sown the first year may
be pastured until the middle of June,
when the stock should be turned on the
spring seeding. When handled in this
manner excellent pasturage is provided
throughout the summer and hay or
seed crop may be harvested from the
field seeded the previous season.
Some of the best pastures in Iowa con-
sist of mixture of Kentucky bluegrass.
timothy, and sweet clover. On one large
farm stock is pastured on meadows con-
tanning this mixture from the first part
of April TO the middle OF June. From
this time until the first part of Septem-
Der the stock is kept on one-half TO two
thirds the total pasturage acreage. The
remainder of the pasture land is per
mitted TO mature a seed crop. Usually
from two TO four bushels per acre of
recleaned seed is obtained from this
portion of the pasture. After the seed
crop is harvested, the stock again is
turned on this acreage where they feed
on the grasses and irstyear sweet clover
plants until cold weather. The seed which
skaters when the crop is out is usually
sufficient to reseed the pasture.
Ii is essential that sufficient stock be
kept on the pastures to keep the plants
eaten rather closely, so that all times
there will be an abundance Of fresh
shoots. Grazing induces the plants to
send out many young shoots close to the
ground, so that when the plants are per-
mitted TO mature seed a much larger
number of stalks are formed than would
be the case If the first crop were cut
for hay. Excellent stands OF sweet clover |
will produce an abundance of pasturage
for two to three mature animals per |
acre, from early spring to the middle of
June Cattle which are pastured on
sweet clover alone crave dry food. Straw
or hay should be present in the meadow
1t all times.
Experiments by many farmers in the
middle west show that sweet clover is
IN excellent pasture for dairy cattle.

Maine correspondent of The Herald sup
piled the interesting details in his Sun
day letter In an attempt to improve
the conditions that had made Lewiston
so wide open" that the city was a
stencil far beyond the borders of the
state, the last legislature, under the spur
of Gov. Milliken. whose good motives are
beyond question, created a police com
mission for that city.
To escape the usual 90 days delay be-
fore new laws become operative, since
there was the fear that a. statewide ref
erendum would be invoked by the Lew
iston gang whose graft was endan-
gered, an emergency clause was attached
to the bill in order that il might 60 into
effect at once. An independent commits
sion was appointed and it set to work
giving Lewiston a much needed house
cleaning. Now the supreme court has to
hold that the emergency clause was un-
constitutional, and thus the work of the
commission is all undone and the Lewis
ton wide-open crowd has the desired OPP
portunity to force many months more of
delay by invoking statewide referen-
dunn. Thus the referendum works for
uplift and political purity and the rule
of the peoplel OF course the people of
Maine at large are only mildly informed
and little interested in the local issue
involved. but nevertheless they are all
called on TO vote on il.

More Commerce Needed.

If ever there is a time when we need
and must have more commerce, that time
is right now This is no time to lay
down or curtail, but it is the time to re.
double every effort to increase the aecus-
toned volume of business upon basis
of reasonable and just margins of profit.
II is certain that our government, as
well as our families, and every other
connection in which we are responsible,
will be calling upon us for more money.
All the time more money, and it has got
to be forthcoming or we fall down as a

business last year has got to lay out his
plans and campaign work for 100000 in
the next year. He has got to put just
this thing across to be doing his bit by
all those who must measure their efforts
by the program adopted by the men at
the head of their respective establish
ments. Let no thought of retrenchment
enter the head of any man who is brave
enough to assume the command of any
manufacturing enterprise. Broad gagged
and liberal policies with the error, if
any, upon the side of liberality will pay
bigger returns in such times as lay right
before us than any other plan of con
Quoting business. The ever increasing
volume of money paid out can do moth
ing else but add TO the weight of the
returning tide while the heavy outlay of
government funds supplies now what
would be the deficit of normal times A
man does not have to Jump into some
line of business that he knows nothing
about to get his piece of the imitation of

All he has 10 do is to get busy with
