BIG GAME PROBLEM
Meat Shortage Points to Need
of Conservation.
Plan Proposed to Establish Sanctuaries
for Wild Life in the National
Reserved Forests.

Mr.. Hoover predicts a meat famine
which will last for years. AS an offset
to this, Remsen Crawford writes in
Golfers, it is proposed to establish
game SanctuarieS in the national re-
served forests, where all kinds of big
game may breed unmolested, and bills
legalizing such sanctuaries are pend
ing in congress.
The general movement for a great
increase of killable big game in Amer
lea has come to be termed throughout
the country "the Hornaday plan" 1t
gets its name from DR.. William T.
HOrnaday, director of the geological
park in New York. Doctor Hornaday
is foremost among the naturalists OF
the country, vice president of the
United States Army league and truss
tee of the American Defense society.
For more than twenty years this cham
piOn Of big game has been sounding a
warning to the American people that
wild life was becoming extinct and
that some day our desolated forests
from scarcity of home-raised meats.
Had congress and the legislatures
of several states awakened to a realiz-
ing sense Of the Importance of pro-
tecting wild life ten years ago there
might still be a food problem before
the American public today but it would
be less of a calamity than it now is.
Doctor HOrnaday, Il conservative, ac-
cUrate man. estimates that several mill
lion head of big game would be avail
able for the market annually if proper
precautions had been taken Il decade
ago. He gives it as his opinion that
even at this late day, if well-protected
breeding places for deer and elk were
provided throughout the vast area Of
the wild timber and brush lands Of the
United States, at least million bucks
might be slaughtered annually, leav-
ing the does to 90 on multiplying the
denizenS of wild life in our forests.
This story of literally living on the
fat of the land is no fable; this idea
of going back to the tall timber" TO
get our daily meat is no daydream.
Where did the thousands upon thou
sands of Indians get theirs? 1t is a
widely known fact in the Southern
states that many tenants Of the cotton
lands live three months of the year on
rabbits, squirrels and birds without
buying a pound of Western raised
meat. 1t is an equally widely known
fact that in the extreme northern and
western states land owners who are
fortunate enough to be within range
of our decreasing tribes of big game
live by their rifles much of the time
There is nothing visionary in the Horn
aday plan for food relief

HENRY FOURTH OF GERMANY
Kings Troubles in Helping to Rule the
World Included Much Suffering
and Humiliation.

OF all the wrangling mOnarchs who
had part in running the world during
the infancy of government none was
more picturesque than Henry " Of
Germany. And he suffered perhaps
the greatest humiliation that ever was
visited upon king, writes a historian.
Gregory VII became pope in the sew
enth decade of the eleventh century.
The election did not please Henry in
the least. Under the piIfered title of
Roman king he claimed a share in pa
pal affairs and did not propose to be
treated lightly. But Gregory persuade
ed him to confirm his elevation. Then
dissensiOn broke out between the two,
and Henry's partiSans unseated the
pope, who retired to Canossa, In the
Apennines.
Gregory retaliated on Henry BY
welding that most powerful weapon
of the Observation-Disclosures. This
casting out of the faith was the most
feared of all fates in ancient days, and
even Henry's close advisers fell away
from him. The king faced the storm
bravely enough, but things Went
against him and he decided to pro-
pitiate Gregory. SO. In the midst OF
winter he crossed the Alps, a truly pro-
digious undertaking in those times, and
presented himself before the castle
where Gregory was staying, asking au-
dience. At first Gregory refused, but
then consented on condition that Hen
ry dismiss all his attendants and enter
alone. The German complied and
quilted his suite to go inside the walls
Further on he came t. q second gate,
where he was told that the pope had
ordered him Invested Of all his regal
ornaments and clothing before proceed
ing. Henry reluctantly consented, and
received in exchange a coarse WOODEN
tunic Wearing this, he passed through
the gate, thinking his troubles over.
But there remained last gate and q
final trial. For three days and nights
he was kept standing outside the gate
in severe weather, fasting from morn
ing until night. At the end of that
time Gregory finally had the king
uShered before him and agreed to lift
the ban if Henry would consent to q
truce between them, made distinctly
on the pope's terms. To this Henry
agreed and was restored to the church.
He left soon after, nursing his hatred
for Gregory and determined to square
accounts. This led 10 the pope noml-
mating another DrinCp for Hpnry'S
throne and to endless warfare. The
king was communicated a second
time and continued under the ban most
of his troublous life. There have been
few instances of monarch undergo
ing any such humiliation as that he eX-
perienced, standing outside the popes
door for three days in freezing weather.

MeatIess Mince Pie.

Meatless mince meat, another Gull
nary triumph in the art of food con.
ServatiOn. has been brought to the
housewives of the country by the ma.
tional emergency garden commission
as a worthy companion of pumpkin
less pumpkin pie and gingerless ginger
bread
The new mince meat, officially de-
scrbed as n "camOufiage," was tried
on five hundred troops on a transport,
who pronounced it perfect and called
for more.
Half a package of seeded raislns,
half a pound of prunes stewed with
lemon juice and peel, One-quarter cup
full sweet cider, four tablespOonfuls
brown sugar; chop the raisinS and
prunes together and the result is said
to be a meatless mince pie which will
accord with the food administration

British National Anthem.

The authorship of the British Ma.
tional anthem furnishes one Of those
evergreen subjects of dispute which de.
light the soul of individuals whose joy
it is to write letters to the press, OBJ.
serves a British exchange. Probably
there will also be conflicting evidences
on the question, but the common opin-
ion now is that Henry Carey, who died
IN October, 1743, was the author. AT
any rate, Carey sang the song as his
own composition at a dinner party in
Cornhill, while shortly afterwards he
approached Il publisher with the manu-
script. 1t was not at once accepted,
and seems to have been first sung in
public in 1745-two years after Carey 2
death.

OUR BOYS IN FRANCE AND
HOME PROTECTION

The men on the firing line represent
the pick of our American youth. One in
four OF our boys at home was sick, re-
iected because of physical deficiency.
Many times the kidneys were to blame.
If we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon. or IL we want TO increase
our chances for long l!fe, Or. Pierce of
the Surgical Institute, Buffalo. n. Y. says
that you should drink plenty OF water
daily between meals. Then procure at
your nearest drug store Anuric double
strength. This An-u-ric drives the uric
acid out and cures backache and rheuma-
tism.
II we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition a diet of milk and vege-
tables. with only little meat once a day,
Is the most suitable. Drink plenty OF
pure water, take Aauric three times a day
for a month. 1t sells for Coo.
Step into the drug store and ask for
Anuric, or send Dr. Pierce Ice for trial
pkg. Anuric, many times more potent
than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar a short trial will
convince you.

Oil Ernm Melon Seeds.

A genuine American invention orig
mated at Rocky Ford. where melon
grower named Burrill. with the fac
ulty Of inductivc reasoning, found out
that a clear, rich oil can be expressed
from the seeds of cantaloupes, notes
the Chicago Tribune. He submitted
samples to government chemists a.
Washington, who notified him that
their tests indicated q new table oil Of
the same texture and color as olive Oil,
one which needed no refining process.
There is wide significance in this dis
covery, which indicates melons, squash
and pumpkin seeds, as perhaps those
of citrus fruit as well, as a prolific
source of oil supply

DeSoto County at the Fair at
Jacksonville

In an interview w. A. Seasons,
county agent, said yesterday that
one thing that caused as much sur
prise as anything else in DeSoto
county's exhibit at the State Fair
at Jacksonville was the display of
general farm products at this sea-
son of the year.
In our display of sweet and l.
IRISH potatoes, hay, corn, etc, we
were surpassed by the county dis
play of no other county.
What is more to the credit Of
the county this stuff was not
raised on picked soil but on the or
binary sand around Arcadia,
Wauchula and Zolfo.
DeSoto county led in pineap-
Piles, in her display of jellies,
fruits and canned goods, in the
quality of her jellies, fruits and
preserves, show of corn, sweet po-
tatoes, Irish potatoes, and in the
artistic arrangement of the booth.
In all this, as Agent Seasons
puts it, "She was in her everyday
clothes"
She equaled all other counties in
her vegetable display, her Florida
syrup and the variety of fruits.
Mr.. Seasons says that there is
no reason why we can not carry'
off the first prize next year if we
make a united effort.-Arcadia
