Not Alarmed at Slaughter of Herd OF
Bison.

Although few years ago slaughter
of few bison would have been deemed
national calamity, the biological sur
,ey of the United States department
of agriculture will make no definite eff.
fort to stop the proposed shooting of
a considerable number OF these ami
mails on the privately owned Antelope
island in Great Salt Lake, announced
in news dispatches.
While regretting the announced de-
cision Of the owner Of the herd To turn
the fine animals over to sportsmcn at
5000 head DR. f. w Nelson, chief
OF the biological survey. does not find
it eNpedient to curtail other and more
necessary game preservation measures
by seeking a congressional appropria-
ton TO buy this herd at the owners
price A bill to purchase the island
and animals for 100000 was recently
introduced by Congressman yelling OF
Utah.
The dark day Of the bison has
passed said DR. Nelson, reverting TO
the time not many years ago when the
principal remnant of the countless
herds that once roamed this continent
consisted of pitiful group Of less
than 100 in Yellowstone National park
where they were prey to poachers be
cause OF inefficient protective laws.
"As matter of fact, with the pres
ent rate of increase, it may become
a problem in a few years how we shall /
care for the buffalo on the national
preserve. It would he desirable for
the government to own the Antelope |
island herd but there are other and |
more urgent uses for the money. |
would much rather it were spent to
buy additional range land north and
south of Yellowstone park for the sus
tenance Of the elk which find INSULT !
,ient winter feed within the grounds"

2,845 Acres Already
Signed in Montgomery

2.S45 acres of tobacco have al
ready been signed with the Coop
erative Tobacco Marketing Associa-
ton and it is believed by the local
organization that this is fully 20
per cent Of the crop, however, this
cannot be definitely known until the
1920 acreage is ascertained, and the
local organization, as well as all
other county organizations, now
(have instructions to get this infor-
nation not only for 1920, but for
this year also. This will entail a
great deal of work on the various
county organizations, and if the
growers who have not signed will
do so without further delay it will
aid materially in completing the
work.
II is confidently expected that 30
to 80 per cent Of the crop will have
been signed in this county by Sat-
urday night. Reports must be made
to the head office as soon as pos
sible and for this reason growers are
urged to act in the matter without
further delay. Montgomery county
is signing up faster than any other
county in the Burley district and at
a meeting held in Lexington Friday,
Mr.. Stone, vice chairman lof the
State Organization, cited the rapid
progress being made in Montgomery
county and urged other counties to
follow our example.
The various precinct committees
throughout the county are doing
most excellent work, the banner pre-
cinct being Towards Mill, where 80
per cent has already been signed.

WHO ARE SUBJECT TO
THIS PROSECUTION?

Supplementing a recent opinion, in
which he held that druggists who sell
patent medicines that have been adj
vertised from wagons in the street,
the advertisers naming the druggists
from whom the nostrums could be
obtained. are subject to Iprosecu-
ton, Elwood Hamilton. attorney for
the State Board of Health, now has
handed DIR. A. T. Mccormack, State
Health Officer, another opinion in
which he says that the person adj
vertising the nostrums from the
wagon is also subject to prosecution.
This opinion is based on the law
which states that vendors of pat
ent medicines must pay 500 for
their licenses and then proceeds to
strengthen this by declaring that it
is immaterial whether the patent
medicine is sold by the vendor or
otherwise.
"Such a sale" Mr.. Hamilton sum
mod the situation up, "would I'M
douhteTy subjelt the person adver-
Using the medicines from the wagon
TO a penalty for failure to procure a
license before making the sale"
Tn this connection the Kentucky
lrdggist, the official organ of the
Kentucky Pharmaceutical Associa-
ton. contains this editorial com
ment:
''The writer agrees with DR.. Nc
Cormack that no reutable druggist
would be a party to any scheme that
would assist an itinerant vendor to
distribute his worthless nostrums.
But this profession, like others, con-
tains some weak brothers who can
not resist clinching the almighty dol
lar. even if there is a question of
their abiding by the law. 1t is for
the benefit Of our weaker brothers
that we bring this matter before the
druggists of the state"
