MUST TRIM HEDGE FENCES
Persons Who Fail Subject to Prosecu-
ton Under Drastic State Law


A suit filed in court here some time
ago against farmer who had failed
to cut his hedge fence has attracted
considerable attention among farmers
all over the country, and well 1t may,
for the law as it now stands ia very
drastic one which every farmer who
has high hedges would do well to heed.
A farmer north OF town, who recently
cut to proper height tall hedge on
on his place, requests the Press to tell
what the law is. He found out and
needed and he thinks that all should
know. In the first place the law re.
quires that all hedge fences which
have grown too high shall be cut to
proper height before August Of each
year. II the owner is taken into court,
i it is no defence II his fence has been cut
to proper height subsequent to August I
II 1t was too tall on August I, and
this is proved, that settles it. He ID
subject TO fine OF from $50 to e5Oo
and the fine is made lien on the land
on which the offending fence stands.
Furthermore, il prosecuting at
torney receives complaint from O
road overseer concerning an unlawful
hedge fence, it is mandatory for him
to file suit and il he does not file suit he
is subject to removal from Office by
the governor.
Under such law, any farmer who
does not have his hedge fences cut in
proper shape before August /, certain
ly take some chances.-Carthage Press.

YANKEE APPETITES

Cooks at the hotel where hun dreds of Americans connected with the Peace Conference are staying are amazed at the appetites of the Americans, says an Associated Press report from Paris. The American breakfast upset all calculations in the French hotel. accustomed to supplying guests with rolls and coffee as an early morning meal. Wild calls for ham and eggs, beef steaks, chops, oatmeal and hot cakes surprised the French cooks. who after weeks of catering to the hungry Americans. have not be- come reconcilef to the American breakfast menu.
 The American fondness for horS d'oeuvres also caused consternation Great dishes of beet pickle, potato salad, sardines. cold slaw and other relishes served as a preliminary to the conventional French dinner. disappear so rapidly that 1t has been necessary to employ many ad- ditional cooks to prepare delicacies of this sort. Americans help them selves soNfreely to this initial course that they frequently have little ap- petite for the soup, fish and other dishes which follow.
 As the hotel kitchen can draw on army supplies for it's food. the Americans have many daIicacies not available generally in Paris cafes. Ices, ice cream and pastry made with real sugar are offered to the peace delegation. In most Paris cafes saccharine is used for such purposes, and even for sweetening coffee. The hotel where the Amer jeans stay also has an abundance of white flour and genuine white bread. Elsewhere in Paris the bread is dark, and even pastry, when available, is from brown flour
