Plumage Legislation has been CT. tended in at least two States. Okla. homa now prohibits possession for sale of aigrettes, and California of aigrettes, birds of paradise, goura pigeons and numidi.
 Administration of game laws has been modified in several important details. Oklahoma has a fixed pen alty for any offense for which no specific penalty is otherwise provid- ed, thus guarding against a condi- tion which sometimes arises whereby a certain act is made an, offense without penalty, and the law con sequently is uninforcable.
 Oregon has authorized the Board of Fish and Game Commissioners to permit under such regulations as 1t may adopt the sale of any game which cannot otherwise be sold. Penn. sylvania has imposed, as a penalty for conviction for second offense under the game law, imprisoned equal to one day for each dollar of the fine an denial of license to hunt for two years Utah has passed law pro hibiting aliens from hunting in the State.

TO DRIVERS
 OF AUTOMOBILES

Automobile drivers are requested to use the utmost care when meeting teams and horseback riders on the public roads. It should be borne in mind all the time that automo- piles have no exclusive rights to use the roads. but that they are made for people with teams. on horse back and afoot as well as for au- tomobiles. and every care should be used to avoid an accident.
 Complaints have been made fre- qunetly by equestians and team sters of carelessness on the part of automobile drivers, and 1t is desir- able that they should cease.
 In this connection it should also be borne in mind that horses fre- quently are afraid of automobiles and become fractious. Automobiles are not afraid, and their drivers should govern themselves accord ingly.

 mobile Association.
