DAMAGE BY DEER.

From Ocean County m the re-
port that las soon as anything green
comes through the soil, the deer are
ready TO eat it, or trample it." That
must be dls%couraglng to the farmers,
and the same conditions are to prevail
in Warren and some of the South Jer-
sey counties where deer are numer-
Gus. For three hundred and sixty-one
days in the year deer are protected
in New Jersey, in order that sport
may be afforded to a few score of
hunters-many of whom are n~on-resi-
dents-on the last three Wednesdays
in October and the first Wednesday
in November.
If the State regards it as desirable
TO increase the number of deer for the
benefit of the sportsmen, then the
State should be willing to pay the far
mers and gardeners for the damage
done by the deer; and out of the more
than 800. 600 received in license fees
and fines each year by the Fish and
Game Commission, it can well afford
to compensate these farmers who are
unwillingly bearing a share of the ex-
pense in carrying out the game pro-
tective policy.
At its last session the Legislature
enacted that when the owner or lessee

LA TOILETTE

One of the war dogs with the French
Army was named Toilette. On Sep
TENDER 81, 1915. in her work of rescu-
ing the wounded, she accomplished a
distance of one mile under fire.
Wounded herself, she continued her
work, and died five days later of her
injuries.
When the Kaiser unclaimed the Spirit
of Hate,
And called on the world to bow to
his might,
No Glamour of nations or problems of
Moved La Toilette from the path of
right.
With brain made wise for its quick
decisions
BY the clean, SUR lives of a thous-
and sires,
Unwarped by any emotional visions,
Passed La Toilette through the foe
mans fires.
A storm of shells on the wrecked from
tier,
A world with the life blood of arm
les wet
In the slippery swamp of deadly fear
The helpless wounded saw La Fol
lette.
War is a thing unclean, barbarian,
The mark of Cain is upon it set,
And whether the man We're king or
vulgarian
1t made no difference to La Toilette.
In a midnight horror of gas and flame,
In the very steps of a horde of spies
Drawing the peril of chance in a game
Where a nations life is the game
ster's prize.
Over the shell torn craters leaping,
Under the blaze of a heaven of stars
Through tangle of wires and brush
wood creeping
Went La Toilette on the field of
Mars.
Life, not death, was the task SO
wrought,
Wounded, no sheltering roof she
sought,
And the soldiers of France will never
forget
The dog of the ambulance-La Fol
lette!

EXPERIMENTAL AUTOMOBILE
EXPRESS SERVICE TO BE TREE
Route Will Take In MillviIIe, Vine
land, Hammonton and Lakewood.

| Trenton, April 15.-An experimental
automobile express service for the
transportation of farm produce from
South Jersey points to New York is
to be ~inaugurated on May l from Mill
vile, Vineland, Hammonton and Lake
wood, announcement being made to-
day from the bureau of markets of the
New Jersey State Department of Ag-
riculture in its market news service
bulletin. w. NJ. Orr, of the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
interested in the experiment, while
experienced automobile men claim the
plan is feasible.
The bulletin also says hat the de-
yelopment of automobile freight SER
vice to Newark and New York owes
its impetus to the serious delays in
the unloading of farm produce in the
freight yards, and H. b. Bamford,
transportation specialist, has taken up
the matter with the Newark Chamber
of Commerce and the Produce Dealers
Association in New York. 1t is also
stated in the bulletin hat farm prices
for potatoes are holding close to 60
cents, that the crop in this state is
E., practically cleaned up and that retail
prices have dropped in all but a few
cities with nice looking stock being
sold in Trenton for less than two cents
per pound.
Two and one-half cents per pound
is a reasonable price for potatoes in
any Jersey city, the bulletin states,
while it adds that most of the stock
now m into Philadelphia and New
York from the north and west and
carlot prices in those cities range from
$.016 to SOP per pound. Thru the
efforts of the federal food administra-
ton, the State Agricultural College
and the State Department of Agricul-
ture potato consumption campaigns
will soon be introduced in all of the
large cities of New Jersey, it is said
in the bulletin, which also states that
so per cent of last years potato crop
is still on hand, it cannot be shipped
abroad and its food value is %depreciat-
ing. Attention is called to it being
one of the best substitutes for wheat
and its use would be a patriotic move
and a practical example of thrift.
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1918-04-20

of any cultivated land shall complain
to the Fish and Game Commissioners
that deer have damaged crops, al in
vestigation shall be made, and if the
complaint is found to be true "a per-
nit may be issued to such owner or
lessee to kill deer, and such permit
shall designate the time and name
of killing, the land On which deer may
be killed, and any other restriction
that may be deemed proper"
That provision may satisfy the
Fish and Game Commissioners, but
it will not satisfy the farmer whose
crops have been destroyed; neither is
it likely to result in reducing the
number of deer during the closed sea-
son. THE time and ann of kill
ing, the land on which deer may be
killed" is protective, but not to the
farmer. 1t is time for the Legislature
to recognize the fact that New Jersey
is no longer a hunting ground.-Tren-
ton Times.

RAILROAD REQUESTED TO

City Council me- in regular session
on Monday evening, President James
in the chair, and Councilmen Chattle,
Adams, Ireland and Lutz being pres

The drainage of the Old Turnpike

P~leasantville and Elwood, to accom-
modate workers at Elwood who de-

Mr.. Ireland stated that Supt. Herr,
of the Water Co., expressed himself
as believing the Company would pay
the entire expense of operating the
water wagon.

right of way for the proposed Wash

PREPARE FOR WINTER NOW.

The long cold winter of 1918, in
many sections of our snow belt the
most severe in 40 years, has passed;
snow banks which guarded front doors
and cross streets have melted away,
and with them has gone the resolve
to make those few simple repairs TO
houses and factories, which will keep
| out cold and save fuel.
The fuel administration is said to
have in mind an order which will cut
fuel users down to at least 80 per
| cent of normal requirements. Such a
| saving would amount to $4,000, 900 tons
or more of coal. If the next winter
should prove to be a mild one, the 90
! per emf would work little hardship;
if a repetition of the just gone
well, that's a different story.
The time TO mend a leaky roof is
now; TO rebuild a broken fence, at
once. The obvious, sensible action in
regard to windows that leak cold air,
and other parts OF a building that are
good ventilators but poor heat retain
ers. is to repair them at once. 1t will
cost no more to make a few storm
windows now. than later when it may
not be possible to obtain them. The
same is true in regard to faulty or in
sufficient heating apparatus; have
them put in shape the minute the win
ter fires are out.
And if you expect to burn coal next
winter, lose no time in putting in your
supply. 1t may not be a cheerful sub
ject to contemplate with the advent
of the first warm days, or even popu-
lar, but isn't is worth doing? Then do
it now!
