1t is not with the idea of begrudging the hunter a

of the experience of many farmers in other sections
who protect their quail feel it timely to point out to
the farmers the great value of the quail insect and

roll worms had been entirely freed from his bean crop
by large covey of quail that would nightly roos in his
field.
Other fields of beans nearby who harbored quail
were literally up by these roll who feed

MAYNARD TO CROSS IN
TWO HOPS .aHE CLAIMS
WILL CARRY EXTRA FUEL TANK
FOR TRIP
Expects to Start Early Next Week to
Establish New Record For
the Jaunt

NEW YORK, Nov. 2O.-Lieut. B.
W. Maynard, the flying parson," On
whom the attention of the whole
county was focused during the recent
transcontinental air race, announced
to an audience at the West Side Y.
M. c. A. yesterday afternoon that
within the next eight days he expects
to try one-stop flight from coast 10
to coast. He hopes to cover 1900
miles or better in single hop with
remodelled De Haviland plane which
has been named the Greyhound.
Lieut.. Maynard's statement was
interpreted to mean that trials have
convinced him that this flight, about
the feasibility of which he was in
doubt on his return home in the trans
SSAhIiilSIlNal lave CdIl D6 I1due. Inc
doubt he expressed at that time was
as to the fuel-carrying capacity of
the machine, his flight having shown
him a Liberty motor consumption of
about 80 gallons Of gasoline an hour
Hopes for 40 Miles an Hour Speed
The normal still air speed of a
DH-4 is 124 miles. With its extra
tanks the Greyhound can start with
306 gallons of fuel, or a little more
than ten hours supply. But with the
changes which the ship has under
gone, and little help from the wind,
it is hoped to speed up to lao miles or
better, which brings the one-stop
fight within the realm of the pos
sible, although with the scantiest
margins.

THE TRAVELLING TENT SHOW.

In this issue of The News appears communication
from Ed NJ Earnest pointing the evil effect of trav
cling tent shows in small communities. Mr. Earnest's
position and sentiment is doubt voiced by all of the
tail merchants and business generally of the city.
Tent shows have been practically barred from every
wide awake city in the country by the fixing Of prohibi
tory licenses This done because such shows have

guise Of being canvassmen and employees in other
ractes prey upon the communities in which they happen

But in addition to the class of Undesirable citizens
such shows bring into community the class of the
fractions themselves If they educational ten
ding to upft morals or innocent amusement they
would not be Objectionable But they appeal to the
baser ensblites especially the street carnival shows
1t rumored that the local Lodge of Moose is plan

to turn to the lodge its part of the proceeds If
the officials of the lodge will investigate the matter

very little left the carnival management will have the
money and the retail merchants of the city will whistle
for their usual Christmas trade.
At least this has been the experience wherever one
of these cheap tawdey catchpenny affairs have been held
Travelling carnivas fnG Jew places where they light
and Palatka should not be one of them.
The license ordinance provides that every Carnival
street fair shall pay to the City of Palatka license
tax of $500 per day for each place, tent structure
where any show, performance, exhibition is given,
where any game is played thing sold given away,
and for every concession shown operated upon the

This ordinance, it is understood from members OF
council is to be enforced strictly, but there is a very
strong sentiment that council raise these figures making
such show license prohibitive.
We take the position that county fair, chatauqua
other attractions real benefit and merit should be
encouraged and will lend every effort to
age them but believe that the Moose put their
bazaar fair even carnival and get all the pro-
ceeds and have much attractive and less graspng
amusement program.
