"Hayseed- Coming.
Something entirely new in musical
plays will be given Ate premiere at The
Playhouse on mex; Thursday. Friday
and Saturday nights and Saturday
matinee. "Hayseed" is aptly termed
a musical melodrama. The story OF
"Hayseed" is a most humorous bur
! lesque on the plays of days gone by
when rustic virtue always triumphed
| over the wicked schemes of the slick
/ city fellow. and in the play one will
| find everything that he used TO love
| in the plays of former yeare.-the
wicked deacon---the mortgage on the
! dear old farm-the innocent heroine.
| pursued by the polished villain and
| defended by the farm hand with the
heart of gold. Here too, will he found
the locl<et with dear old mothers face
inside. which is stolen from the heroine
and finally returned to her and her
true love and they are married and
live happily ever after. The play con-
tains moral every minute, and a
laugh in every moral.

Information for N. D.. Sportsmen
Cando. N. D.. Julv 20. 1922.


For the information of the Sports
men Of the State l would like to state
thru your columns that the Game and
Fish Board at a recent meeting held
in Steele, N. Dak., appointed full
corps Of Chief, State Wide, and Dis
trict Deputy Game Wardens, but as it
is not at this time positively known
whether or not all will accept and
qualify, no names are given out.
1t was the aim of the Commission
to appoint men who are well quail
fed for these Positions, men who are
deeply interested in the preservation
of Game Birds and Animals, men who
will not hesitate to see that all per-
sons observe the law. With the eX-
ception of some minor items the Game
Laws of North Dakota are liberia !,
easily understood, and should be OBJ
served.
From observation in travelling about
the state and from reports received,
it would appear that there will be an
abundance of strong, matured birds Of
both the Pinnated and Sharp-tailed
Grouse. Encouraging reports are also
received from territory where the
Ruffled-Grouse are found. The Ducks
are found in every slough and lake
on the prairies, generally speaking
large broods predominate, occasionally
only one or two young are seen with
the old bird, but they are the excep-
ton.
The real sportsman will not trans
gress the law, he should see that the
others do not. District Deputies will
be within reach of all parts Of the
state territory, any information fur
nished them will be investigated at
the earliest possible time.

Breaks" said DR.. A. F. Schalk, veter-
marian at the North Dakota Agricul-
tural college.
GAS a means of prevention, farmers
should avoid visiting farms where
cholera hogs exist and should keep
travelling dogs and pigeons away be-
cause they are carriers of the dis
ease. Sparrows are also carriers but
are hard to control. Care should be
taken about bringing in hogs from
outside the community and q good
idea is to keep the new hogs brought
in penned up separately 80 days.
Watch the hogs for the first sick one !;
be sure to see them twice daily. Often
during the busy harvest season the
farmer feeds his hogs before he can
see them in the morning and after
dark at night, never seeing them un-
til he notices that they fail to appear
at the trough for feed. By that time
the outbreak is serious one.
"When the first sick hog is noticed
buying hog cholera remedies; they
are no good. Hog cholera serum is a
reliable and dependable preventative
of hog cholera and will save the life
of many sick hogs in the early stages
of the disease. However, it is not
put out as a cure but as a preventa-
tvie," said DR.. Schalk. "It may be
obtained from the state hog cholera
institute at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college at actual cost. 1t will
be dispatched by return mail after a
request is received"

have reference to the double-pay mat
ter. The intention was to allow the
printer extra compensation for setting
up rule and figure work, but the law
reads a publisher may charge dou-
BILE price for running legal matter each
time it runs, and where legal notices
run for several weeks as is the case
in many instances it places an unfair
charge for running it. This law should
be amended to rectify this condition"
Mr.. Crary also goes on record as
opposing the establishment of state
printing plant, expressing belief that
it would not be successful.
at is only fair to say that we be-
lieve that the state during the past
has been getting it's printing done at
a very low figure, possibly rs percent
of what the same printing would cost
in the open market" he says.

Attempts to Collect Bounty on
Danutv's nOp


J. w. Moore of this city on Friday
of last week proved to his many
friends here his ability to shoot a
coyote on the run at long range. Soon
after the noon hour Mr.. Moore noticed
what appeared to be large coyote on
the bank of the 500 reservoir just east
of the city, and Immediately got out
his high power Winchester rifle and
took a shot at it. He had the animal
brought to town where it was on dis
play in front of the Moore Hardware
Company's store for a short time.
Upon calling at the auditors office to
find whether or not bounty was being
paid on coyotes, he was informed that
he would receive $3.50 for every coy
ote killed by him. He then had the
animal taken to the court house to
have the auditor punch it's ears and
at the same time collect his $3.50.
When Deputy County Auditor Law
renee Kopriva was called out to see
the coyote, the first thing he said was
"That's my dog" And it was. Mr..
Moore had. killed Kopriva's pure bred
Scotch Collie dog and brought same
to the owner to collect bounty on it..
He did not get the two-fifty.-Bow-

Farmer Tired of Being the Goat

VIM. Abraham, prominent South
Prairie farmer, was in the city Sun
day. He reports fine crops, but is
wondering how he is going to make
any money from his rye, paying IA
cents bushel for threshing it and
selling it for around half dollar. 81
understand that the rye sells at 81 so
a bushel when it gets to Buffalo and
! am wondering how the dollar spread
is divided.' The farmers are entitled
to more money for their rye and they
are paying too much to have it thresh-
ed. 1t may be that the threshers have
to get that much in order to pay high
wages and make profit, but if that
is the case, less wages should be paid.
There is no reason why the farmer
should be made the goat at every turn
of the road and he is getting tired of
it,

PROPOSES CHANGES IN STATE
PRINTING LAW

Bismarck, N. D., July 31.-R2cor:-
mendaton that the next Legislature
revise TO some extent rates for legal
advertising is recommenGvN by E. NJ
Crary, state printer, in the annual re-
port for his dcpartm mt.
AT the last session OF the lcgisla-
ture law was passed fixing the legal
rates of printing, and owing to the
fact that the bill was not properly
drawn, and owing to the fact that a
law was placed on our statute books
which makes a very unfair rate for
legal printing!" says Mr.. Crary, 81
