Protect Your Game
Have you stopped to think about
your future game shooting? II not,
it's time you did think about it. II
proper steps are taken NOW you
and future generations as well-will
have all the game shooting you
want.
A movement is under way to pro-
tect the game of this section and
other parts Of the state and country,
by enlisting the aid of sportsmen in
shooting game destroying animals
and birds before they have an OPP
portunity to cause destruction dur
ing the nesting and mating season..
Plans are being made to have every
sportsman interested in game pro-
lection, spend some time riding
woods, field and marsh of predatory
hawks, owls and crows, weasels and
others who annually kill ten times
as much game as all gunners COM
bined. 1t has been stated that the
red squirrel alone will kill 200 birds
a season, while the great horned
owl destroys annually covey after
covey of quail. Special efforts are
being made to enlist the aid of game
lovers against the crow who is de-
scribed Is destroying individually
more birds Of all kinds, more birds
eggs and young poultry than any
other bird that ever tapped a wing.
All game destroying animals and
birds are classed by sportsmen and
game lovers as vermin, and it is ex-
pected that vern1in hunting clubs
can be organized all over the coun-
try and that members of establish
ed gun clubs will join in the move
ment by going into the woods and
shooting as many game destroyers
as they can find.
Strfpers
Striped bass will soon be found
along the New Jersey shore. A few
days ago while fishing in the Della

Bituminous Material Is
Useful for Road Surface

Application of .bituminouS material
ySay be made successfully on any farm
road which has already been construct
ed of stone, gravel or other similar ma
terial, and is in a thoroughly COM
pacted and reasonably smooth condi-
ton. A cOal-tar preparation applied
cold, or an asphaltic oil, can be used
and If applied by the farm employees,
the cost should not exceed or 8
cents square yard for materials.
The compacted gravel or stone road
should be thoroughly cleaned of dust
and the bitumen applied with ordinary
sprinkling pots from which the per-
forated nozzle has been removed and
the spout carefully fattened into a
symmetrical rectangular opening about
one-quarter of an inch wide, so that
the material may be poured in broad,
fiat stream.
If large amount of work is to be
done, a specially designed pouring can
may be purchased of dealers in road
equipment. Care should be taken to
have an even distribution, and the
quantity applied should be approx
mately one-half gallon to a square
yard of road surface. After applying
the bitumlnous material clean gravel
or stone chips should be spread evenly
over the surface, and if possible, rolled
with a lawn or field roller. Where
gravel or chips are not available, clean
coarse sand will serve as covering
material. 1t should be spread in suf-
t1cient quantity to prevent the btu
minous material from adhering to tires
of passing vehicles.
This treatment should not be made
where drainage from the stables or
barns will flow over it. Where mud
holes are likely to form around hitch
ing posts or at stable entrances, IL
more durable pavement is desired, a
section Of concrete slab should be laid.

crn civilization, particularly along the
lines of self-indulgence in eating and
drinking together with physical in
diligence.
Statistics from many countries
show that a per capita increase in
the consumption of meat, coffee and
alcoholic beverages appears to coin
eide with proportionately greater
augmentation in the mortality from
cancer.
DIR. Bulkley's observations have
been arrived at through his cases at
the New York Skin and Cancer hos
pital. which he founded. Through it
daily pass scores OF persons OF the
city, suffering from the malignant d's-
ease. So wei rooted is his belief that
surgery, which calls for operations for
the removal of infected portions, xray
and radium treatments not only arc
ineffective, but aggravate the disease
that he has installed system Of Diet
ing that calls strictly for vegetable
foods Meat is banned. Exercise is a
requisite and the proper medicines are
also a basis of his treatment.
In substant alton of the point that
past methods has proved ineffective
he points to the medical statistics. In
the period of 1912 to 1916, SO per-
sons to every 100000. The toll of can
Ger in America for 1922 was more
than 100000 persons. The figure is
mounting rapidly.
Medical estimates have it that at
least 100000 cases develop annually
and that upon the basis that the life
of the disease is three years there are
now 100000 cases in America.
Albany, N. Y leads sthe nation in
death rate witha mortality of 1929
persons out of each 10000 popula-
ton; San Francisco is second with
1913; Boston is third with 1853; Sac
ramento is fourth with 141.8 and Pro-
violence is fifth with a mortality of
1855 persons out of 100000 popula-
ton. Norfolk, Va, has the, lowest
cancer death rate in the country and
Detroit has the next lowest.
In the five years from 1917 to 1921
inclusive the death rate was 97.1 per-
sons out of every 100000 persons in
the United States died of the disease
In spite of its advances along the
line of sanitation and health measures
America is leading the world in the
prevalence of the disease.

Fast Living Cause OF Increase

Law-Dr. Buckley is urging that the
