Animate and Inanimate Targets.

That FRED ToMLIN, New Jersey
trapshooter, was able to shatter 595
targets out of 900 in shooting tour
nament extending over four days
establishes the steady quality of his
nerve. Yet his accomplishment did
not call for the same kind of skill
as that which enabled old time live
bird professionals like BREWER and
FULFoRD to kill ninety-eight out of
a hundred pigeons.
There is machinelike sameness
in the flight of the disks thrown
from traps. A few grains Of shot
will break these disks. and Clipped
target is scored as dead bird.
Live birds released from one of
three hidden traps present another
problem. The pigeons furnished in
the old days for the matches at the
Carteret grounds in New Jersey
or at the Riverton Gun Club near
Philadelphia, twenty-five years ago
left the traps as though propelled by
springs. No jacksnipe surpassed some
of these feathered meteors in their
twisting flight.
Speculation ran high at the weekly
shoots at Carteret and Riverton
whether the contests were between
amateurs or professionals. BREWER
and FULFoRD were recognized as
the best of the professionals. The
matches between them produced spec
tacular betting. But New York and
Philadelphia had several amateurs
that were about az clever as either
OF them, and one of these, Lou
THOMPSON, would have been backed
to beat either il match could have
been arranged. THOMPSON shot at
Carteret and is still one of the best
field shots in the United States.
EDGAR MURPHY and DR.. GIDEON LEE
KNAPP we're other splendid shots in
the New York contingent. FRED
HoEY and GEORGE Work were famous
New York marksmen.
Rivaling them in skill were a
number of Philadelphians. the best
being Bon WEIGH and the Dolan
br others, CLARENCE and YALE. That
the Dolans have not lost their ability
is shown by their bagging the limit
of canvasbacks on the flats of the
Susquehanna near Havre de Grace on
Monday, December 4.

A False Christmas Idea.

1t is difficult to understand why the
communists who have been in jail
at st. Joseph, Michigan, pending theil
trial for conspiracy should be re-
leased on bail ito enjoy their Christ
mas holidays at home"
In various prisons throughout the
land there are thousands Of men and
women far better disposed in spirit
to appreciate Christmas freedom
than are the fellows who were seized
at Bridgeman, Michigan. last Au-
gust while they were holding con-
ference relative to the best means OF
attacking the Government of the
United States.
The communist crowd does not
wish peace on earth to men of good
will. Quite the contrary. It's mem
bers should be kept safely guarded
until the law is through with them.

tages. The Maine experiment really
depends on the corn and other
feed for wintering the stock while
growing and for fattening it before
going to market. But New England
farmers generally have been able to
dc fairly well with corn for their
stock and the Maine cattle raisers
may be able to do as well or to buy
corn cheaply from New England
farmers. II. on the other hand, they
have to use Western feed the prob
lem in the end will resolve itself
down to the question Of whether it is
cheaper and better to haul corn in
the raw form all the way from west
of the Mississippi to the State OF
Maine or to haul the beef which is
largely condensed corn.
Meanwhile, good luck to the cattle
raising boys and girls Of Maine.
