Dogs Chasing
Deer at North Jaw

The Department of Inland Fisheries
and Game recently received notice
from a resident of Jay that a small
deer apparently abandoned had been
found in that vicinity.
The warden. upon investigation
could not learn that the mother of the
little fawn had been killed, but did
learn that dogs have been roaming
in the woods promiscuously at night
in that vicinity and undoubtedly they
have scared the mother away from
its young.
The warden Immediately notified
the owners of hounds in that vicinity
of the complaint he had received of
dogs running at large and appar-
emily chasing deer, requesting them
to confine their dogs. hoping, as a
result of this. no more complaints of
that kind will be received. The law
was explained to all dog owners that
II the dog is again found chasing
deer after the owner has received
notice that his dog has chased deer,
the dog Is not only liable to be killed.
but the owner Is subject to a severe
penalty.

GOVT PLANS TRIAL AIRPLANE MAIL
 IN ALASKA

tance from Nenana to McGrath is approximately 230 miles. It is believed it can be accomp- .lished by airplane in between three and four hours, as again st eleven to twelve days by dog team.
 It is proposed to operate this experimental service twice monthly, beginning February1, 1924, if the present negotiat- i3ns bjtween the postoffice department and MT. Eilson are consummated. as now seems likely. This will be the first of ficial test of air mail service in Alaska. If this experiment is successful it will result in greatly expediting mail ser wee to points distant from the railroad where planes can be u ad to advantage. Eilson is al experienced aviator and has been engaged during the past season in operating private a, service, with Fairbanks as h.5 headquarters. His success irAsthis endeavor attracted the attention g of the postoffice au- tkorities, who saw possibilities fer speedy mail deliver to re- mote Alaskan points.

FIVE OF SIXTEEN PLANES IN
 STATE,ARE OWNED HERE
Aviation Field Project Is Deserving of Further Investigation Com
 mittee Believes.

Five of the 16 airplanes in Con necticut are owned by New Britain men, the special committee consid- ering the need of an aviation field here was informed last night by Carl Dixon and Nels J. Nelson, two local fiers who are members of the com- mittee. The aviators urged that a field be provided to take care of the citys future needs.
 The establishment of flying field will increase interest in aviation by bringing airplane meets to this city, and these meets in many instances are productive of big revenue, the committee felt. It was voted to se- cure data from other Connecticut cities to be submitted to the com mon council together with recom- mendations that sites be looked for
 Although there was no discussion of sites last night, it was agreed that Walnut Hill park is not advisable because of the absence of long, level stretch.
