Work of the State Game Warden.

take the following extract:
A report from the Game Department.
is also reproduced in this Bulletin. 1t
furnishes a splendid illustration of the
good which can be accomplished if re-
venues are provided by law for the
m maintenance of the work of this Com

censes are very properly set aside in
the State Game Protection Fund which
can be used solely for the payment OF
diaries and expenses of the tame
Warden and his deputies, the residue to
be divided among the counties in pro
portion to their contribution to the
fund and to be expended therein fol-

10000 to be imported from Mexico,

bits to be caught in New Mexico.
Owing to the unusually dry season IL
the Mexican Highlands where the qual

been advised that only portion OF his
contract can be delivered. However
Mr.. LeCompte is making every effort
to procure as large delivery as posi-
BILE. so as not to disappoint the County
Committees who are so enthusias ticaiI

to make distributions of game amoni
the various counties.
Plans are under way for the estab

HOW WAR BONDS
GO Up IN VALUE
History of All Loans for a Gen.
fury Shows That Advance
Has Always Come with
Peace.

Will history repeat itself? TAae
question is in the minds Of many bond
buyers these days. Records show thai
the prices of bonds were way down
during war times of the past but soon
after peace was declared advanced
rapidly.
During Napolsonic wara prices Of
English 3 per cent. oonso1s ranged
from GIN. the high and SAN, the Low.
In 1914 to s6A the high and san the
low, In 1894. During the sane period
French s per cent. rentes rose froa
80, the high. in 1914 to lo4.S IN 1sa4.
They Also went as low - IS IA 1914.
French per cent rsates during the
Franco-Prussian war ranged IN prizes
from 751 to S7.3 and sos 70 Sill
United States bonds during the Con
federate war sold for 96x. the high.
and SO, the low, In 1851. but from then
on they had practically . steady rise
until 1873, at which time the high vas
12sA and the low 111k. Tfs &aa-
torty-year bonds. put out In 1854 ad-
ganced from 103H to 1l6h tn ten
years.
Four series Of Liberty Bonds have
been issued and the ntth-to be
Known as the Victory Liberty Loan-
will soon be offered. These securities
aave behind them the mishtiest pEo
lection ever devised-the resources
and the pledge and the faith Of ons
of the great nations Of tho world
The investment value Of the bends
can never decrease, for the interest
will always be paid and the Aonda
will be redeemed at full face value
at maturity:

Camp Meade has been selected by the
War Department as permanent divis-
ional headquarters post for the army,
according to an announcement made re-
Gently by Gen. Peyton G.. March, chief OF
staff.
1t will be made the headquarters OF
the Twenty-ninth Division, which, fol
lowing it's early return from France,
will be reorganized as regular army
division, to be composed of men re-
cruited exclusively from the States OF
Maryland, New Jersey. Delaware, Vir-
ginia and the District of Columbia. Al
present this division is made up of units
of the National Guard of those States,
whose enlistments will expire on their
return to this country.

Modern Woodman Hard Up.

A convention to save the Modern
Woodmen of America from financial
difficulties is being held in Chicago,
SAYS dispatch. A. R. Talbot, head
counsel, described the situation as crlti-
cal. In October, 1918, he said the So
ciety had a general fund of $40. 900, OoC
in securities. This had dwindled, to
s64O, 900 owing to'the ravages Of infuen'
"a and pneumonia, he explained. War
claims also figured.
During the war the society, by a
specia! assessment, raised a fund OF
S56,U0O.0 G0, out of which all war claims
were met, and there remains in this
fund 100000, the speaker said.
The war claims, he said, were as
nothing compared with those due to in
fiueEza and pneumonia.

Farms For Soldiers

Among the many plans for providing
employment for returned soldiers that
of, establishing them on farms or in
farming communities is one of the
most interesting. Already no less
than three different movements have
been announced. One of them is by
the National Catholic War Council.
The plan of this council is to establish
agricultural centers and offer opport-
unties to discharged soldiers to become
owners of land and producers of food
Another plan is one that has been sug
gested tothe Roosevelt Permanent Mem
orial Committee. 1t is proposed that q
farming community of 125 families, to
bear the name of Roosevelt, shall
be created, each family to have 12O
acres, and each in the begi ming to be
supported. Instructors are to be sup
piled to teach the settlers how to farm
and raise cattle, etc.
Another movement is by the Army
and Navy Department of the Brother
hood of st. Andrew, church organiza-
ton.
In order to get soldiers or, in fact,
any set of people to go to the farms,
farm life must be made attractive.
To put family alone in the country on
farm with the nearest neighb)r half
mile or mile away, is to put them
where in all probability they will b.
| dissatisfied, even If they consent to go
Young people-and all the soldiers are
young people-demand society and re
creation in the intervals of work In
| the winter when work is interrupted
| by the weather, farm life is isolated anc
irksome, especially to the farmer
wife and children.
! In France and some other countries
| the farmers live in villages MT remote
| from their lands, where they have theil
churches, schools and amusements. II
starting farming community for tht
soldiers there would be no difficulty il
| following this village plan.
Farming is now a gainful occupation
and one of the most wholesome. Be
side this there is need for more farm
srs. The production of food in tn
country has not kept pace with the in
creasing population of the cities. Tn
cost of animal food is excessive, ant
unless production is increased there doe
aot seem much pcosp 4ct Of settlemer
of prices to reasonable level. The sole
iers' farm movement is a reasonab
aud promising solution of more THAI
one problem = alti more Sun.
