CAME PLENTIFUL

Deputy Game. Warden Jesse Dunn
returned last Tuesday from a three
days roundup in the south western
part Of the county in the interest Of
the fish and game department and
reports everything in fine condition
Very few faint reports of violations
and thinks the people as a rule are
living up to the law and cooperating
with the game department in the pro-
lection of the fish and game, He
says the sloughs, ponds and creeks
are full of ducks and geese and the
early settlers of the county claim
there is more ducks, geese and chick
ems of various kinds this spring than
they have seen for several years and
II they are given chance the coming
season will be the best for the sports
man for many years. Section 16 of
the Idaho game law reads:"It shall
be unlawful for any person or persons
to destroy the nests or the young
birds of any game birds, or to modest
such birds or their young during the
breeding season and any person or
persons found guilty of destroying
the nests or destroying the game
birds or their young during the breed
ing and Matching season shall be
guilty of misdemeanor.'
Warns the people not to set fire to
the rushes or standing bay in the bot
toms as by SO doing they destroy the
nests and eggs of the geese and
ducks.

FARMERS ARE
UNDTSNIAYED.

After seeing published lot of un-
reliable statistics, compiled by white
collared farm experts who never
plowed an acre of land in their lives,
that the cost of producing bushel
of wheat was all the way from .$1.5O
to $500, the undismayed farmers
are sowing more than average acre
age Of wheat in the face Of dollar
a bushel price, says the Pacific Man
ufacturer. In many wheat states the
best wheat is hard to market at a
dollar but the wage agitator keeps
bowling that the cost of living is not
coming down. Eggs are lower than
for twelve years and so is all the
farmer has to sell. With high spir-
its and patriotism, the farmers are
not going to quit growing crops and
feeding us all.
