is Of the first States to adopt the broad policy
OF protecting its citizens against monopolization of
the desirable hunting grounds by exclusive clubs.
In the Pass-aPOutre reservation there is one
lagoon which It is proposed to set aside sanctu-
ary where all wild fowl will find refuge from the gun
of the hunter. The shooting grounds dotted with
duck ponds and make Of the finest duck-hunting
preserves in the United States. II is located on
practically newly created ground built up in the last
few years by the Mississippi with the sediment con-
starty carried down and deposited where the river
pours into the Gulf of Mexico Were for sale the
property could hardly be bought for much short Of
half million dollars.
The for hunting wild fowl the new
shooting grounds will extend from November to
January 81 and the law permits each hunter to shoot
twenty-five ducks each day. To prevent overcrowd-
ing hunters will be required to register and accom-
modatons will be provided for an average OF 100
hunters. than it is probable will be there on
any day.
"An extension of such publc-spirited and pro-
gressve conservation measures by other States, said
Dr. E. w. Nelson, chief of the Biological Survey, in
commenting on the action of Louisiana, will result
in the retention Of water in various parts Of
the country where our migratory wild fowl may
have feeding grounds and places to breed and where
the public continue to exercise the splendid
health giving sport of wld-fowl hunting during the
open season"

New Navy Accounts System.

q ECRETARY OF THE NAVY DENNY secured
y the permission of Comptroller General J. R. Nc
Carl last week for the bureau of supplies and accounts
of the Navy Department to conduct administrative
examination of limited number OF navy fiscal officers
accounts
II is believed that in the long run the procedure
authorized will prove to be OF the best things
done by the Secretary Of the Navy and by Comptroller
General McCari in the movement toward promoting
economy and efficiency in the navy. The procedure
authorized will allow the officials of the Navy Depart
ment to correct errors in submitted by fiscal
officers of the navy before such forwarded
to the general accounting office for final audit. No
duplication of activity is involvedon the contrary the
general accounting office will be relieved of the
sty of discovering errors susceptible of correction by
the Navy Department; hence the general accounting
office will be free devote its attention to matters of
law and other matters not coming within the purvew
of the naval authorities.
Some of the specific advantages toward increasing
the efficiency Of the government methods will be that
the bureau of supplies and accounts of the navy will
be able determine within sixty days after the receipt
of accounts in that bureau whether not appropra-
tons used afloat have been correctly charged with the
corresponding expenditures. If officer or enlisted
of the navy personnel has been undercredited he
will be promptly apprsed by the naval authortes-this
will mean great increase in the contentment of navy
personnel. The fiscal officers themselves will be hnan-
ciay protected and made to feel in their
hducary capacity by being informed within sixty days
to whether not their accounts are correct.
On the whole, while the accounts coming within
the purvew of the Comptroller Generals authorization
at present very limited in number, the navy feels
that distinct gain to its efficiency and the efficiency
OF the nation has been inaugurated.

Trapping in Alaska.

NDER new regulations promulgated by the
~ Secretary of Agriculture on August 3o for
the sprotection Of all land fur-bearing animals in
Alaska, open season is provided for trapping
beavers and martens in the Territory This an
will be read with interest by trappers in
Alaska and by fur dealers in the United States since
there has been open season for killing beavers
there since 1910, and none for martens since 1916.
Prior to the time when close estab-

being rapidly exterminated In many localities in
the interior Of Alaska beavers had disappeared

this area beavers may now be trapped from Decem-

Aluminium dust has also been found to be quite

have occurred in manufacturing establishments. The
dusts OF various grains have been found by the DEPART

explosions in flour mills and grain elevators.
Hard rubber dust is also declared to be exposible.
The dust Of rock containing free silica, found in
some metal mines in the West, settling in the lungs
of the miners is responsible for heavy annual death

Now most doctors say that three
glasses Of water. besides glass at
each meal. should be the minimum
daily ration. It is well 70 drink more
than this. Liquid Is necessary to start
the digestive processes, and water Is
preferable to tea or coffee. The
learned doctors of the eighteenth or
even the nineteenth centuries would
have held up their hands in horror
over tho idea of imbibing water at
mealtimo Yet the doctors Of today
have scientific experiments and a
comparatively profound knowledge of
water chemistry and engineering to
back up their prescriptions. of course
IL ia a desirable bit of forethought to
make sure that your own water sup
ply IL pure before drinking your quart
or two quarts a day. For people w =
are camping. or who for some other
reason do not have the benefit of a
filtered or otherwise purified water
supply, Public Health doctor offers
the following rules for purifying your
own water:

II is an interesting tribute TO our

medicos ventured to suggest that

tho perpetual moral Of the pictures.
Even then some people dared TO

for the fear to wear entirely off As
