"In order to survive and SO be able

avoid certain obvious dangers. We
must make every effort to avoid sec

that the people of the northern or

A motion of Maj. e. Brooke Lee
was adopted authorizing the organiza-

was directed to appoint, to act as q
credentials committee to pass on the
credentials OF delegates at the next
meeting.
Mr. Bride brought out the point that
the organization was not to be lin
tied to southern Montgomery County.
but would handle the affairs OF the
entire county.
H. +. Taft, mayor OF Takoma Park
spoke in favor OF the organization
but found some fault with the repre-

that Takoma Park would only have

Finally we should always bear in

n. Y, describes the disease and sug-
gests preventive measures as follows:
Before death occurs, the head hangs
down, the comb and wattles become
blush in color, and the temperature,
which at first is high, drops to sub
normal. The nose and intestines dis
charge, and this matter is heavily
charged with the virus causing the dis
ease. A few men who have studied
fowl plague state that when the dis
ease is very acute, and the fowls die
few hours after they are attacked,
the discharges are not infectious.
There may be other natural ways in
which the disease is spread one Euro
pean writer suggests chicken lice Many
important questions relative to its dis
semination will require extended investi-
cation. 1t is definitely known, tho,
that when healthy hens are fed with
a very small quantity of the blood or
liver of a fowl dead from fowl plague,
or inoculated with it, they will die in
from two to four days. The dead
fowls usually show, when examined,
small pin-point hemorrhages in the fat
about the heart and over the abdominal
organs.

While in other directions our con-
servation effort is becoming more and
more constructive, in the care of our
game and especially of our water
fowl we have been content with
merely prohibitOry measures. The
result is that this valuable national
asset is in danger. We need consider
only few facts to realize its worth.
The wild game of the United
States, according to Government es-
timates, has a value of over one bill

S ates the wild game is more valu-
aDle than all of the States live stock.

over one million dollars. Yet we
have given little attention to con-
Structive measures to preserve and
increase this highly valuable and, if
destroyed, unreplaceable national
resource.

is threatened. What shall we do
about it?
Heretofore, the efforts to save the
game have been merely by prohibi-

is needed. There is now
