C0MM'R. PARSONS THINKS
CHANGES Are NEEDED IN
THE CLOSED SEASON

choose, or leave the slaughter Of the
Dig game to the Sterner sex.
Again in the first two weeks in
october. it is usually ideal weather
for tenting along the highways, and
hotels and sporting camps get little
patronage from the automobile class.
The roadsides are lined with auto
mobile tents during these first two
weeks in October in some sections of
the State, there being over 80 tents
in as many miles on one road in
PlscataquiS county each fall. Later,
with cooler nights. hunters would be
making the sporting camps and ho-
tells their headquarters. There are
other good reasons why the first two
weeks of October are not the best
weeks for hunting.
ut is frequently dry during the
first two weeks in October and there
is much danger from fire before the
fall rains have drenched the ground
and soaked the leaves. and while a
few hunting birds might do some
damage. net as much surely as a
full quota of fall hunters scattered
through the forests at that time
What | deem of more importance
than all else is the saving of human
life. TOO many fire at moving BUSH
eS. 1t should never be done. but the
novice will do it more or less, and
when the leaves cover bushes and
underground accidents will occur. 1t
has been my experience and that of
nearly every hunter that. after trav-
cling in the big woods, especially
away from any trail, for an hour or
two. without seeing any one. that
there is a feeling of no one else in
xrhot,
moves may contain a man instead of
a deer. There is but one safe way
and that is not to fire until sure that
your bead is drawn on game and not
on a human being. 1t is better to
never get a deer than to even wound
another hunter.
Il believe that 1t may be better
to limit the deer to one that may be
taken in open season in any county
II also believe in a license for resi-
dent hunters and fishermen with
minors under 16 years Of age ex-
empt, to be used for purposes of
revenue. I do not believe that the
nonresident. or the taxpayers of
the state, should bear all the burden,
but that the resident who fishes and
hunts should be willing to pay a
small fee OF $1.15, especially as the
dollar received by the department
would go to increase the amount
available for the propagation of
game. increasing the very resources
of the State upon which he relies
for sport. if not profit. as a matter
OF consumption in the family.
"Other states are doing this very
same thing and having so much
more money with which to compete
with Maine. Maine is surrounded by
resident license territory. Massachu-
sets has resident hunting and fish,
ing license OF 50. New Hampshire 81.
Vermont $1.25. Rhode Island, hunt
ing and fishing $3.50, Connecticut
$l25, New York SIPS, New Jersey
SI65. Pennsylvania, hunting alone
81. Maryland, state license $50,
county license $1.1O.
"On our eastern border New
Brunswick has resident hunting
licepse of So for big game and 81 for
waterfowl alone. and to hunt Is DAYS
before the regular open season,
which begins on the first of October.

suits of constipation for Al
years, since ! began the prac-
tee of medicine back in 1875. l
am now 83 years old, and though
from time to time the medical pro-
fession makes some wonderfully
interesting experiments and tests:
the fundamentals of causes and
relief in this particular ailment
are unchanged. Y
But the people take greater in

diet, exercise and the drinking Of
water. Constipation, however, will
occur from time to time no matter
how one tries to avoid it. OF next
importance. then, is how to treat
it when it comes. I believe in
getting as close to nature as
possible, hence my remedy for
constipation, known as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is a mild
vegetable compound. 1t is made
Of Egyptian SIENNA and pepsin
with agreeable aromatics. Chill

tasting, and youngsters love it:
1t does not grippe. Thousands OF
mothers have written me to that
effect.
Over 10 million bottles of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup pepsin arc now
sold every year, and it is the most
widely bought family laxative in

because all in the family can use
it with safety. 1t is mild enough

Pension Roll Slowly
Decreasing, Report

Washington - The United States
pension bureau paid out S263.0l2, 500
for pensions in 1923 as compared
with S253,S07, 5S3 for 1922. Through
the change in the law to monthly pay
ments, two additional months were
added to the fiscal year of 1923, max
ing the payments for that year cover
fourteen months instead OF twelve
months, thus causing the increase.
The amount Of additional money paid
out for pensions for these two months
was approximately Sl7.500000 De-
Quoting this the fiscal year OF 1923
over 1922 would actually show re-
duction in the total paid out for pen
sions in correspondence with the re-
duction of pensioners from $4,000 to
539,756. it was explained by the pen
sion bureau.

Grain Handling Cost
Is Believed too High

Washington-That the cost OF hand
ling grain can be and should be re-
duced is the finding OF a recent report
of the federal trade commission. An
increase in the cooperative marketing
of their own grain by farmers is given
by the commission as one of the
means most available at the present
time for reducing the spread in the
price OF grain which takes place from
the producer to the consumer of grain
The commission also suggests that a
reduction in freight rates and more
direct shipments are desirable. The
commission has recommended the OPP
Grafton of public terminal elevators by
railroad companies as an adjunct TO
the transportation service.

Divorces Gain on
Marriage Census
Weddings Fail to Keep
Pace with Increased
Population

Washington-Final returns in the
nationwide marriage and divorce
census show that the marriage rate has
fallen off Divorces have increased
The divorce rate was 1876 per 100000
against III in 1910 and So in 1890
Marriages in America last year totaled
1,l26,4lS, against l,040, oS4 in 1910. The
increase is not in proportion with
growth of population and represents
a decrease in rate. The District OF
Columbia led the states in number of
marriages to one divorce, with 35.S
weddings. South Carolina does not
permit divorces. New York State was
next with 22.9. Marriage was most
popular in Maryland and least popu-
lar in Delaware.

Agriculture Shows
Slight Improvement

Washington - Continued improve
ment in agriculture outside the whoa,
belt is recorded by the United States
department OF agriculture in its latest
agricultural review. A significant de-
velopment is the strengthened demand
for cotton and pork, the review saws.
In the wheat belt. the situation is
different, the department says. More
than hundred thousand homes in the
wheat country are in distress. Debts
which have been accommodating for FIVE
years are now coming due and the
farmers are unable to meet their OBJ
legations.
