The impression is that the much

against spring shooting now will be
Monroe City Democrat., 1919-03-14
Now for a Test

For several years past the State
game laws aud the Federal game
laws have conflicted, the state law
allowing an open season in the
spring for killing ducks while the
Federal law permitted the killing
only in the fall. This state of af-
fairs has been a nightmare to hunt
ers. none seeming to know exactly
what Interpretation to put on the
situation. many of whom have ask
ed advice of the Attorney General
of Missouri. the writer being one of
them, but no satisfactory reply has
ever been received, However. it
now seems we are to have test
case. and as our attorney general
will himself be the defendant. we
presume the hunters of this state
are confident he will use his ut
most endeavor to have the state
law prevail.

ham are on the way to Philadelphia
from Chicago. and will be sold through
Himbpl Brothers as soon as it arrives.
The ham is dry smoked and will be
dark in appparance. but in flavor will
equal the famous Virginia product.
Sixty Carloads Allotment
A total of sixty cars of army food
will probably be allotted to Philadel-
phia, said Mr.. Mclaughlin, instead of
fifty cars. Sales will continue from
time to time at Gimbels. though il is
expected that large quantities will be
sold through the police stations as the

to deliver food to the parcel post station
at Twenty second and Market streets.
Orders for this food were placed through
the postoflres several days ago, but de
liverics could not be made because of
delay in shipping the supplies here from
army dcpotS throughout the country.
