Coutr.rines. Of Small Mouth Black bass.

silent Sam" told THE SUN last Thurs
day OF taking a black bass on n plug IN
Greenwood Lake and finding after post
mortem examination that its .'tummy'
contained several partially digested shrimp.
What's the answer" asks silent
Sam" II goes without saying that
shrimp didn't grow In fresh water The
answer Is that some salt water fisherman
thought he would try his hand at catch
ing fresh water bass and took shrimp
along bait.
Salt water fishermen know as little
about the appetites of fresh water nsh
as fresh water fishermen do about the
tastes OF FISH Of the sea. He probably
didn't get n bite and threw his bait over
board in disgust.
The bass which later was foolish enough
to strike at silent SANS plug gCbbled
UP the shrimp Just to keep the record
straight as TO the contrarlness OF small
mouth bass.

HOOVER REsC|NDs
BEEF RESTRICTIONS

Washington. Aug. o. Restrictions
on the consumption of beef In public
eating places. and the voluntary re-
SlrictionS on houSchodcrS, have been
removed by the food administration.
The regulation rcScinded by this
action prohibited serving beef more
than once II day In restaurants and
hotels. aud limited domestic consump-
tion to one and half pounds per-
son weekly. In suspcnding these reg
uati0ns about one month earlier than
II contemplated, the food administra-
tion requests that the use OF beef be
restricted as far as practicable to cat
tie which dress under 475 pounds. Re-
tailcrs are urged to purchase lighter
cattle. and the public Is asked to pat
riotically accept 1t although used to the
heavier beef. so that the military forces
and the allies may have the heavier
grades which are required for export.
Extreme drouth in Texas, oklahoma
and other sections Of the southwest
aud some cattle states Of the north

creating an abnormal run Of cattle Il"

"'rhr desire of the food admini>tra-

MORE ABOUT SEED
WHEAT FOR FARMERS

Quite bit has been written relative
to getting aid for the farmers in the
way Of seed wheat for planting this
fall The Chamber Of Commerce has
interested itself In the matter, and
Secretary Jones says everything is
going to be done that Is possible to So
cure the aid desired. Speaking of what
had been done in the matter Secretary
Jones had the following to say to the
News man this week.
The matter Of securing aid for the
farmers hcrcabout2, so far as seed
wheat Is concerned, seems to have con
10 head. II Is possible for them To
get such aid through two separate
channels. The first Of these Is through
their own bank just as they would do
, under any otmrr circumstances and II
their bank lacks funds which to make
the necessary loans it can get what
! ever addition funds are essential by
making proper Application to the reg
ioual reserve bank AT Dallas. This
howcvcf, has been previously explain
ed at some length and by this time
is probably thoroughly understood by
all the farmers of the county. II
concerns the banks directly and the
farmers only indirectly.
"The second channel Is through the
federal land bank for this section
which Is located at Wichita. Tht
Chambe Of Commerce has just receiv
cd from Senctaor Jones of New Mexico
Il copy of the latest statement by TIA,
treasury and agricultural department,
of the government concerning the dis
