HUNTERS MAY
TRANSPORT GAME
NEW LAW FOR SPORTsMEN THIS
YEAR MAY INCREASE ACTIN
~ OF NIMRODs IN SOUTH
DAKOTA.

Sioux Falls, Aug. 11.--Twenty-
three local sportsmen have applied
for their 1921 hunters licenses TO
date, according to the records of the
county treasurer's office, but between
now and the opening of the wild
fowl season, September 16, there
should be a good demand for the
permits.
One dollar is the usual fee requir-
ed of the resident hunter, while
there is one provision which became
law through the action of the recent
legislature that offers an alternative
TO resident hunters and should inter-
est local nimrods.
1t permits resident hunters or
small game to take out a special 50
license instead of the regular 81 Ii
cense which will allow the holder
TO ship, not to exceed so birds, TO
any point within the state. To date,
there has not been any applications
for this special license at the county
treasurer's office here, although the
application blanks have been receiY-
ed. After obtaining the blanks, the
hunter must remit direct to Pierre.
stated the treasurer.
The original law specifically pro-
hibited the shipping of game within
or without the state. the exception
being made where n resident of the
state accompanied the shipment or
carried il with him. The special Ii
eense. which is merely an alternative
and is issued upon application in lieu
of the regular license, is designed to
hermit hunters to send their game
home while on a trip and not intend
ed to permit promiscuous shipping
of birds.
In getting the special license
blanks, the application must be filled
out at the county treasurer's Office
and sent to the state game warden.
specifying to what address 1t Is de-
sired to ship the game. and the war
den then uses his discretion about
granting it.
These special licenses viii have
10 coupons, each good for the snip
ment of five birds, and a coupon
must be attached TO each shipment.
The coupons are TO authorize any
common carrier to receive and trans
port the game in accordance with the
terms.
nonresident hunting licenses are
SIS as in the past, while resident IL
eenses for big game is s5. according
TO the county treasurer.
Other amendments to the hunting
license law this year are those pro-
viding that no person shall be en-
titled to a resident hunters license
unless he has lived in the state SIX
months Immediately prior TO appli-
cation, and must be Is years OF age
unless application is made by a par
ent: and a provision classifying
aliens, who have not declared their
intention of becoming citizens or the
United States as non-residenfs.

REVIVAL IN
BUSINESS SEEN
REULT OF HARVEST HAS BENE-
FTCIAL EFFECT ON GENERAL
ECONOMIC SITUATION.

Sioux City. Aug. 1.-THE federal
employment bureaus narrative de-
scription of existing industrial con-
ditions announces that they have
been infinitely improved with the
harvesting of the wheat crop. Bene-
ficial effects of the bumper crop are
strongly reflected in railway occu-
pations, packing plants and the
building trades No. difficulty was
experienced in procuring plenty cf
harvesters, the report says.
A better feeling it evident in busi-
ness circles generally even though
retailing has slowed down.
The Sioux City survey filed by the
bureau says: Notwithstanding this
is the dull season for most local in
dustries. with the exception of pack
ing, all are operating steadily, with
even some small additions being
made to the Industrial list. Cream
cries show a steady increase, and ex-
tensixe road construction and city
paving is under way. Building is
quiet, but contracts aggregating
more than s1,O00,000 are to be let
in the near future. Work in the
harvest fields has absorbed most of
the unemployment"
Ottumwa, Ia, reports such build
ing activity and public Improvement
work, while retailing is decreasing
somewhat. Cedar Rapids has had
manufacturing increases in some
lines offset by decreases in others.
Davenport has a s2,000,000 Masonic
temple and many small houses in
process of construction. Retailing is
improved but little. Des Moines re-
ports there is a tendency in many
plants to a reduction in forces, due
to decrease in export business. Prep
arations are under way to surface 20
miles of new highway.
Nebraska at Omaha and Lincoln
rejorts no marked changes in condi-
tons Building permits in Omaha
equal the number of the correspond
ing period of 1920. Slight improve
ment in both wholesale and retail
lines is reported Substantial indus
trial Improvement is shown at Lin
coin. Building trades are increasing
ly busy Railway shops are taking
on men laid off in the spring. Hast
ings, Neb., announces business is
steady if not greatly improved.
In South Dakota the Sioux Falls
survey says with manufacturing
plants increasing their forces and
building showing a slight improve
ment, there have been substantial
gains in the industrial situation dur
ing the month OF July.
1t is announced by Aberdeen that
the local surplus of harvesters was
absorbed before the arrival OF the
army of transients that has been dis
tributed throughout the state. The
South Dakota supply of labor has
been ample. Building trades are be-
coming increasingly occupied.

equal to the per cent of the in

Claims Filed For
HI a il Insurance

Pierre, Aug. f1.-While the hail
season for this year is practically
closed so far as hail damage is con-
cerned, there will yet be losses re-
ported in some sections.
To date 5,72s different losses
have been reported to the state hail
department, which nursber is a de-
cided increase over laet year, with
a total of 5,204.
The claims this year will be much
heavier than for last year and may
go over the surplus which has been
set aside from collections fof former
years, and many of the claims for the
present year may have to be paid
for next year.

Miss Hartley Embrey Invit- ed to Study Philippine Foodstuffs and Prescribe Balanced Diet.

Shanghai, Dec. B. Miss Hartley Embrey, a chemist of the Rockefel- Ter Foundation fin Picking and a grad uate of the University of Chicago, who has just completed her work of de- vising q satisfactory diet for famine sufferers in China, has been invited to go to the Philippines to study Phi1- number of balanced diets at the low est possible cost.
 The following is the communfca- ton of pr. Victor G. Hefser, former director of health in the Philippines and at present connected with the Rockefeller Foundation, to Director Merrill, of the Philippine Bureau of Science:
 While in Picking during the month of September it was brought to the attention of General Wood and the undersigned the work in food andy sis which was being done at the Pe- king Union Medical College by Miss Hartley E1nbrey. Her work has al- ready had practical application in that she was able to devise a satis- factory diet for subsisting famine suf- ferers at the rate of four cents a day.
 Miss Ennbrey is an American girl and is reported by competent author ities to be accomplished chemist and has received her training at the University of Chicago. In view of the great importance which proper diets have in relation to disease, it seems most desirable that further knowledge in this respect in the Phil ippines should become available.
