improving Streets

A number of the towns streets
have been considerably improved dur
ing the past week by scooping out
trenches and filing them with shell
thus making a ribbon road. and other
streets have been improved by filling
up the deep holes and ruts worn
during the extremely heavy rains.
The plan Of making ribbon roads
does not solve the street problem, but
was adopted and is regarded as a
temporary improvement within the
means of the town which will make
the streets passable and less rough.
While not all that could be desired,
the improvement is considerable and
will make the streets better than ever
before.

stuff offered. One Of them said that
those goods which were in financial

bought at retail inEocal stores, while
those that were sold in big lots did
not bing as much as one-fourth their
value. n said further that many OF
the articles sold at ridiculously low
prices were such as the government
needs or will need at other places
and will have to buy at more than
double tho prices for which they sold.
There was great variety of goods
auctioncd off, and the sale was at

SAYS LAWS ADEQUATE TO
PROTECT SALT WATER FISH
Commissioner Hodges Claims Laws
Regarding Salt Water Fishing
Are Being Enforced

state Shell Fish COmmiss oner
Hodges. discussing the salt water fish
ing industry at Tallahassee recently,
said: The press of the state has
frequently mentioned editOrially the
value and importance of the fish and
game of Florida and the laXity OF the
laws governing same but they failed to
aggregate the fresh from the salt
water fish. There can be no doubt
but what the laws for the protection
Of the fresh water fish are lax and
are not enforced but the same can
not be said of those governing the
salt water fishing industry.
THE laws for the protection o. the
salt water fish are adequate with per-
haps one or two exceptions and are
being enforced over territory Of ap-
proNimatcly three thousand miles of
coast The shell fish department has
40 appropriation from the state gov
ernment but relies exclusively on the
taxes collected from those engaged in
the industry to carry on the work.
The department has more than paid
expenses, accumulated considerable
property, enforced the law and de-
posted money in the general revenue
fund in the state treasury during the
present administration.
"The fresh water ijsh and game are
the greatest attractions Florida has TO
offer the many tourists who annually
invade her sunny borders except her
nasnihcient climat" but they cannot
be classed as an industry while the
salt water fishing can b" so claSsed
