ter OF conscience OF the most tragic
sort.
Each year the woods hold more hunt
ers than ever before. and the time is
not far distant when the number OF men
who hunt deer each season may even
exceed the deer. Tho figures of the
game census indicate this possibility.
Under more strict observance Of the
buck law however. the deer will increase,
since the number of does killed even
under that law has been not inconsider-
able. The commission Is convinced that
the law must be maintained and vigor-
ously enforced, because:
Firet-The life OF single sportsman
or guide Is worth more than all the
deer IN the woods.
Second-The deer herd will be unable
to survive the drain II the breeding
females are killed.

TWO CLASSES OF ANGLERS.
The BiG Hearted Sportsman, Law
Abiding. and other Man.

AVALON, Cal. Feb. l.--F!suratively
speaking" says Ernest Windle angler
for the big game fish in the Catalina
Island waters, there are two classes OF
anglers: The first is the big hearted
sportsman who observes the laws. who
has enough red blood in his system to
be charitable to others, and who gives
hsf. animals and birds an equal chance
for the freedom that is rightfully theirs
The second is the individual some
times known as the tin plate chaser
who belongs to a dozen fishing clubs,
who knows every turn OF everything that
Is Crooked and who belittles everything
everybody else does; who hunts for the
seeds OF discomfort and nurtures them
with artfully concocted lies. in order to
gain his own Individual ends--such as
cups. medallions and other Ill gotten
glory"

BUCK LAW PREVENTS
HUNTING ACCIDENTS
Greatest Safeguard Of Human
Life That Can Be Provided
as Gunners Increase.
SAVES DEER HERD DRAIN
by GEORGE ID. PRATT.

State Conservation Commissioner.
In connection with the game census.
the commission has collected statistics
of hunting accidents and the working Of
the buck law that are OF the utmost sig
nifcance. They are drawn from many
sources and show with unfailirg uni
formity the results of this law as 1t has
been applied in State after State.
Besides protecting the breeding deer,
the buck law, when It is properly OBJ
served, is one of the greatest safeguards
OF human life that can possibly be pro-
vided for the rapidly increasing number
OF hunters who throng the woods during
the open season.
For six years prior to tho passage OF
the buck law in New York State. the
number Of men killed in mistake for deer
was fourteen. In the four years that
Immediately followed the passage OF tho
law there were seven.
Figures compiled by the United States
Biological Survey for period OF ten
years show that IN FIVE States where
does were allowed TO be shot the num-
Der OF persons killed in mistake for deer
was 1875. For the same ten years the
number killed In mistake for deer in hve
States that had a buck law was only
twenty-seven.
For the four years between 1911 and
1914 in Wisconsin, when deer of either
sex could be lawfully shot. the number
Of hunters killed In mistake for deer
ranged from twelve to twenty-four an
nually. while the number injured ran
from fourteen to thirty-one In that
state for those four years the practice OF
shooting at anything that moved with
out loo king for horns was responsible
for a total OF eighty-one deaths and
ninety-six injuries. In the first year OF
the buck law. the only one for witch
figures are available none was Killed
and none was injured in mistake for a

It is perfectly clear. however. that the
buck law cannot protect human life
unless II Is observed. Witness four cases
In New York state during the last open
sea- son, two fatal and two nearly so.
/. A mail and his guide were hunting
In the vicinity OF Star Lake in the Adj
rondacks. The guide was in stopping

he saw a deer. shot the guide through
the stomach and spine The guide died
soon after. THE hunter mistook his
guide for a deer" said the game protec-
tor who reported the case. He would
not have done SO had he been sure that
he saw horns.
2. A Mineville hunter, seeing some
thing moving through the bushes. think

Of whether It was buck or doe-fired his

Extracts and Tomango
At Pearson's Grocery

Mr.. Pearson Is not running a
blind pig, or anything like that;
everything was out in open view
from the street. Miss Julie Crowley,
an expert at mixing things to suit a
kings taste, was there, with q table
and on the table champaign glasses
with liquids in them of most beauti-
full hues; and one of these covered
bowls out of which you dip cupfuls
of creamy drink; it looked like the
prehistoric Tom-and-Jerry bowl, and
the drink tasted about right, too.
Its name is Tonnage. Remember
that.
Miss Crowley is from Boston, re-
presenting flavoring extract manu-
facturer. and combating the war;
time substitutes that seem to have
crept into the market along these
lines. She made the most exquisite
fluffy things to demonstrate the
flavors. Let us pray that reform will
not soon be commanding us to lay
off of the real thing in flavors.

PROSPERITY AND MOTORS

There was time in the lean years
of farming when many farmers had
to buy equipment that was poor in
quality because it was cheap. But
today the farmer has money and is
buying equipment of proved value
the sort he has always wanted be-
cause he knew it had the genuine
value that made it cheaper in the
long run.
The automobile is today part of
the standard equipment of every
farm. Cars of the best makes dot
every country road. The farmer is
considered by the auto salesman to
be most discriminating buyer. He
is man used to doing things him
self and not delegating jobs to
others; his information is usually
first hand, and he knows just what
he wants.
1t is because Of the farmers pros
perity and their determination to get
full value for their money that the
United States Tire company is look
ing forward to an enormous buiness
this year in the agricultural sections.

Did American Soldiers
go to France for This?

To scrub the floor for even SO es-
Unable a gentleman as Col House,
as Mr.. Richard Seeyle Jones remarks
in his Paris correspondence to the
Post-Intelligencer, is poor reward
for services rendered in the Argonne.
Col. House and the other American
peacemakers and designers housed
in the Hotel Crillon doubtless track
mud and otherwise make scrubbing
a housekeeping necessity; but just
why American soldiers should be
called upon to perform, this honor
able but humble task we are not able
to say.
1t maybe answered that the uni
formed scrubmen that slush suds
around the Hotel Crillon floors do
so from choice, and that they are
not compelled to engage in this
mental service unless they so desire.
This, however, we submit, it not a
sufficient answer, and is one that
overlooks the essential opposition to
the. r-scrubman-the uniform.
If the uniform of the American SOL
der stands for anything, and for
two years we have loudly proclaimed
that it does, then it is worthy of
higher station in the Hotel Crillon
than that Of the scrub bucket and
the mop. A soldier may properly
scrub his barracks and perform such
other duties as are necessary to his
own health and comfort. That is
one thing; but when he is put to
work as soldier scrubbing floors
and washing dishes for a hotelful
of peacemakers and their families,
he becomes standing argument why
a great many Americans want moth
ing to do with the army.
If the uniform of the United
States army may indicate that the
wearer is either a man who has
fought for his country or who has
scrubbed floors for Col House, the
doubt cannot but detract from some
of the affection and admiration We
have for it. Scrubmen and dish
washers are necessary, and no stigma
should attach to their callings. But
none the less they are not soldiers;
their vocations normally call for en-
tirely different qualities, and the diff
ferences in perils and hardships that
exist between trem make for diff
ference in popular esteem.
If Paris is totally destitute of
scrubwomen if dishwashers and soul
lions generally are not to be had, it
is proper that such soldiers as have
a taste for this sort of work should
have the opportunity to indulge
profitably in it-but as private in
not as soldiers.
The uniform should ever stand for
valorous and self-sacrificing service
in the army or navy, and should
never be confused with exploits per-
formed with sapollo or the Gold
Dust Twins, for the comfort of Col.
House or any other private indivi-
iual.-seattle Post-Intelligencer.

planting of trees dedicated to those
whose lives have been sacrificed in

of agriculture, David F. Houston, in
letter just sent to the governors

special interest to the people of
southern Idaho, as many Of our ir-

most devoid of long-lived shade
trees.
Assistant secretary Of agriculture,
Clarence Ousley, says: Trees are
the arm of mother earth lifted up in
worship Of her maker. Where they
are, beauty dwells, where they are
not, the land is ugly, tho it be rich,
for its richness is but greasy fairness
and its agudy raiment is but cheap
imitation of forest finery. Trees are
the fittest ornaments of wealth and
the inalienable possessions of the
poor who can enjoy them without
having title to them"
The following suggestions are
made by DR.. F. G. Miller, forester of
inches or more, or where trees are
to be grown under irrigation and the
altitude does not exceed 400O-50O0
feet, large variety of shade trees
can be grown successfully. A few

CANNON AND THE TIMES
GOT OFF WRONG

Idaho has for four years been one
Of the very active states in enforc-
ing matters of sanitation, in enforc-
ing sanitary regulations in stores and
markets, and the Twin Falls Times
of recent date, quoting Miles Can
non, state director of farm markets,
says there is no authority in Idaho
for enforcing regulations in markets
pertaining to sanitation.
If Mr.. Cannon and the Times are
correct in that statement, they
might accommodate us by telling us
when such measures were repealed
as we have been operating under,
with ]. K. White and ]. H. Wallis
putting things to rights for so many
years. Bingham county we'll remem-
bers when grocers in this section had
to clean up, because one Parker,
working under White, told them to,
They also remeber when the old
county bastile, reeking with filth,
was cleaned up because Wallis
walked in and took a look around
and told them to scrape off the thick
of it and then swab out till it was
clean.
We rather guess Cannon has an
other think coming.
