CATCHING Them
OR JUST FISHING
SAMELAW SAYS
Better not be Caught Pestleating
Around Within 100 Feet OF
The Dam, Anyhow.


It doesn't make any difference
whether you are catching fish or
just fishing if you are within 100
feet of a dam you are violating the
law. That is one of the refnements
which tne Illinois legislature in
jected into the fish and game act
at the last session. Il used to he
that one must take fish, to incur
a penalty.
Another fine line, so to speak Is
drawn by the provision that in
streams designed as fsh~preserves
it IS Illegal to bait a throw or trot-
line with live bait, though dead
bait is proper. Heretofore 1T has
been deemed a misdeamor to tish
with anything but pole and line
and to use more than one pole OF
one hook on line.
Copies OF the game law have been
printed and are being distributed to
counties. Those for Rock IslaAd
are expected TO be here in few
days. They are being sent out with
the new licenses which should
have been ready for issue July l.
but which have been held up be
cause OF changes in the law.
Nonresidents must hereafter have
license TO fish with pole and line
in Illinois. A license is also re-
quired for the trapping Of fur bear
ing animals.
Minimum lengths of fish sold in
the market are changed. Catfish
are Increased from Is TO IS inches
and bullheads from to s inches,
while buffalo are cut down from Is
to Is inches.
No Ferrets, Boys.
As previously stated the opening
of the season for killing rabbits
was changed from Sept. / to Now
1. and ends Jan. 81. Strict pro-
visions against use Of ferrets is
made. Taking one on a huntips

Suppose the laboring classes should

Immediately the cry would go up

Few Now Search for Gold.

With the exception OF the years OF
1915 and 1916, when discoveries Of
tungsten brought a horde of wealth
seekers to the Colorado hills, the
search for gold has steadily dimin-

the American Government has rejected
the proposals of the italian Foreign Min
lister NJ. Tittoni. for a settlement of the
Adriatic question. The Paris correspon-

Mr. Polk communicated to Washing

proposals of Italy were excessive.
The Rome correspondent OF La NdciOn
reports that Secretary of State Lansing
after a conference with President VIII
son sent a communication, stating that
President Wilson cannot accept the new
Italian proposal and still maintains the
four objections lodged against the previous
proposal. These are to the annexation
by Italy of the triangle of territory
around Volosca Gin order to give Fiume
a joint frontier with the Italian King
dom), TO the grant of autonomy for
Fiume as buffer State. TO the annexa-
tion to Italy of the Island OF Lagosta In

Milk and Soft
Drinks Discussed

Questions as to what shall legally
constitute milk and soft drinks" in
Pennsylvania are occupying the at
tention of State officials and legis-'
lators during the weekend confer
ences will be held during the COM
ing week with men in charge of
State supervision of such matters.
The plan is to establish a stand
ard whereby a consumer can get
milk with the amount of butter
fats he wants, the milk to be sold
under q label, This will run UP as
high as eight per cent. The ad-
vantage of this plan, it is contend
ed by some of the State officials who
have studied the matter would be
to encourage farmers to build up
herds and distributors to avoid dup
lication of routes. The definite fix
ing of butter fats would it is claim
ed do away with the situation pro-
duced under the present law which
fixes 3 per cent as hard and fast
rule.
There is a disposition to await ac-
ton by Congress before presenting
any legislation establishing what
shall be considered soft drinks"
One bill presented by Representative
S. j, Cans, of Philadelphia, makes
half of one per cent the maximum
for alcohol in drinks, but this does
not have administration backing,
Some members contend that alleged
soft drinks have been found to be
very powerful in effects and that the
new prohibition commission should
have authority in the matter.
