Time for Filing Hunting
Reports Will Soon Expire
Failure to Comply with Law May
Cause Trouble in Securing Lii
cense for 1927

All hunters, who took out IL
censes to shoot last fall, both large
and small game, if they have not
already done so, should send in
their reports to State Game and
Fish Commissioner j. f. Gould at
once. The reports should be sent
in within 80 days after the close
of the small game season, which
means during the month of Janu-
airy, according to law, and the
month of January is now over
half gone. If it is put off again, it
may be forgotten again, therefore
it is suggested that any license
holder who has not already report
ed, hunt up his report card, which
is a part of his license, fill it out,
and mail it at once. If the Ii
cense has been lost, send in re-
port anyway. Failure to report
may cause any delinquents trouble
and delay in getting license next
year.
Licenses are all checked up. 1t
will be remembered that Warden
w. L. Swanson checked those in
his territory last winter, and no
license will be issued next year to
any person who held a license this
year until he has made his report
for this year.

MINI. Near Top in Road
Surfacing Of the Nation
Gopher System Has 24,3S5
Miles Improved-Only Four
States Have Better Record

Of Minnesota's 1OS,OS1 miles Of
road, state, county and local, a.
385 miles, or 22.5 per cent, Were
surfaced at the end of 1925, &C.
cording to statistics given out re.
Gently by the U. S. Bureau ot
Public roads. Only four states
New York, Ohio, Indiana and Wis
consin had more miles surfaced.
Minnesota has both higher to,
tai and a.higher percentage OF sur,
faced roads than any other state
west of the Mississippi, except in
the extreme west, where Idaho
Washington and California have q
higher percentage but a smaller to-
tai. Iowa has only $3.50 miles, OF
s.. per cent, surfaced. North Da-
kota has only IL per cent and
South Dakota 2.6 per cent sur
faced. Wisconsin has 28,318 miles
or $50 per cent surfaced. Hi
nois, although it has about 5000
miles of pavement, seems to have
neglected it's other roads, for ii
has only 1929 miles, or 16 pei
cent, surfaced.
Minnesota's surfaced road mile
age increased 514 per cent from
1914 to 1925. Only six states,
Iowa, South Dakota, Oklahoma,
New Mexico, Colorado and Ari-
iona, showed a more rapid in
crease. This was due to the fact
that these states had very few
surfaced roads in 1914.
Five states, Indiana, Wisconsin,
Georgia, North Carolina and Ken
lucky, showed a higher per cent of
surfaced roads in proportion to
motor vehicle registration.
In surfaced roads are includ-
ed sand-clay, gravel, macadam and
all types of pavement. The fig
ures show that the use of grave.
and concrete has increased greatly
from 1914 to 1925, while the use
of macadam and sand-clay has de-
creased. Many of the states which
have a smaller total of surfaced
roads, have a much larger mileage
of pavement than Minnesota.

Mimi.
Someone in the neighborhood
has a radio and receives the daily
market, which is broadcasted each
morning." says Mr.. HORNED
"When his stock is ready to be
marketed, he can keep in close
touch with conditions, and when
he thinks the price is about right,
he can load up his hogs and go to
market.
"In the days when it was neces-
sary to haul by team, he would
have to start out early in the
morning in order to make the re-
turn trip by night, and he had to
take whatever the market might
be, either higher or lower, with
the option of only one market.
Now he knows the market condi-
tons and can phone ito several
markets and obtain the highest
price, as distance makes little or
no difference when hauling by
truck and on good roads.
about 20 per cent or rs per
cent of our hogs are received by
truck from a radius of fifty miles.
Hogs received by truck are freer
from bruises than those received
III cars because of only one hanI-
ling from the farm ito the packing
plant. This item alone is big saw
ing to the farmer, as we'll as to
the meat industry at large"
That farmers are making good
use of the improved highways for
hauling live stock to market is
shown by the report of the Union
Stock yards Co. at South St.
Paul, which shows that 1880
truck loads of live stock came in
to the yards in 1923, 34,431 loads
in 1924, 47,337 loads in 1925 and
5000 loads in 1926. The num-
Der of loads coming direct from
farm to terminal market in 1926
were 25 per cent greater than in
1925 and lis per cent greater
than in 1923.
The total receipts at the yards
in 1926 We're 6,143,643 animals.
Of these 519,454, or 81 per cent,
came by truck. The truck receipts
We're divided as follows: 54,456
head of cattle, 105,025 calves,
294,2S7 hogs, 44,675 sheep and
IL horses.
The benefits from keeping the
highways open in winter are
shown by the fact that the truck
receipts averaged nearly as high
for January, February, March and
November and December as for
the other seven months. Novem-
Der brought 1900 truck loads, the
highest for any month of the year.
