a trip TO Elephant Butte dam but one
time in a year to fish there for 81.
Another suggestion which Mr.. Dix
on pressed and which the New Mexi-
cans agreed to was that one day
licenses be granted hunters from out
Of the state. 1t now costs a nonresi-
dent hunter SO TO hunt birds in New
Mexico, as he cannot get a license ex-
cept for the year. Under the suEges-
tion Of Mr.. Dixon. adopted by the Al
buQuerque meeting. the state of New
Mexico would issue permits TO hunt
for one day for 81 and for week end
trip OF three days for $3.50. In this
manner man could get license for
81 every trip he wished 10 make. if
he did not care to take out an annual
license.
Turkeys and Deer Prohibited.
Mr.. Dixon also suggested. and the
association approved the suggestion,
that the limit on wild turkeys be
raised from three to six in a season
per man and that the man be permit
ted 10 kill them all in one day il able.
Now three turkeys are the limit for
the season and two for a day.
Recognizing the rapid disappear
ance Of turkeys and deer in the state.
the delegates recommended a closed
season on both for two years.
As such a closed season will cut
state sportsmen, since few will buy
the $50 annual big game license if
they cannot kill deer and turkeys. the
delegates recommended a substantial
increase in the license fees OF resi-
dent hunters. in order not TO cut the
revenue for game protection. as they
consider that the game warden viii
need more deputies during the closed
period than he needs now.
Game Wardens from the Mimbres
and Black Range country reported
that while 290 bucks were killed last
year. only 81 had been shot this yeal
and the number of hunters had been
so percent greater Decrease in wild
turkeys I'm similar ratio was noted.
This was the reason for the suggested
closed season.
Changing Fish Law.
It was decided at the meeting also
TO recommend that the law governing
the amount OF fish a man may have
in his possession be amended to permit
him to have ten pounds and one fish"
The reading Of the law might look
silly. MI Dixon said. but IL was essen
tial to protect the legitimate sports
man. who, having caught nine pounds
Of fish, might next hook a two pound
er. II he returned to camp with all
his catch, he would be fined for hav-
ing more than the legal limit. The
amendment VIII put MIN Wlluln Lne
pale OF the law II was decided TO ask
for an amendment to the law prohibit
ing any man from having more than
50 fish in his possession at one time
regardless OF the number OF pounds
thev might weigh
Theo. ROuault's administration as
state game and fish warden was
unanimously endorsed and his reap
pOintment was urged on governor
elect Larrazolo.

fewer HOGS DIE OF: DISEASE
Annual Death Rate for Year Ending
March, 1918, Reaches Lowest
Mark in 35 Years.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The death rate of swine from all
diseases for the year ending March,
1918, was 42.1 per 1000, and is the
lowest in 30 years, according to rec
ords kept during that period. This
unprecedentedly low rate of mortality
presents a great contrast with those
of earlier periods, particularly with
the losses of 1888 per 1000 in 1887,
IA. per 1000 in 1897, and 1889 per
1000 in 1914, years marked by severe
outbreaks of hog cholera. This is even
a remarkable reduction from the nor
NAL low rate of losses which has re-
NAMED slightly above SO per 1000
when the disease was least prevalent.
The approximate number of hogs on
hand January 1, 1918, was 71,374, 900.
The loss of 42.1 per 1000 for the year
ending March, 1918, therefore repre-
scented approximately 100000 of these
animals, equivalent to the consumption
of pork and pork products by the en-
tire population of the United States
for 1917 for 25 days.
These recent losses should be COM
pared with that of 100000 hogs in
1914, which curtailed production to the
extent of the national consumption for
that year for 81 days.
The marked reduction in the losses
of swine in 1913 over preceding
periods, in view of the fact that 80 per
cent Of these losses are due to hog
chOleYa, indicates clearly the benefit
from the combined efforts Of state and
federal agencies in protecting the
farmers against the ravages of this
exceedingly fatal disease.

FRUIT GRADER SAVES LABOR
Series Of Inclined Planes Arranged t@
Sort Out Different Sizes IN
Packing Apples.

Grading fruit by hand If you hMve
much to go over is a tedious job. LEI
a series of inclined planes do the work
For instance, anyone knows that ap-
pies will roll downhill. You put the
apples on the first shelf, the one ON
top. The apples roll to the other end
Those small enough to go through the
holes drop to the next shelf below
and start rolling again, the s1nah ones.
in turn, dropping to the. next lowest
Those too big to pass through fine
holes pass on off the shelf into has
kets or crates. Dropping through the
holes does not bruise the fruit he
cause on the shelf underneath zS On
cushion that keeps them from t0WclA-
ing the wooden shelf itself.
