With the principal arguments already
made on the question oI whether The

now Is whether the Senate will 50

BELIEVE NOW is TIME
TO BUY FARM LAND

A large number of people who have
been watching the trend of things,
will agree with Asst. Secretary of
Agriculture, Dunlap, who said in a
recent address:
Il believe that, because of the low
prices at which land can be secured,
now is the most opportune time we
have experienced in 80 years for the
procurement of a farm. The young
man who wants to follow agriculture
should not overlook this wonderful
opportunity.
agriculture in this country is, al
ways has been, and believe, always
will be, sound, solvent business.
practically all of the acceptable
farm lands are now under cultiva-
ton. Increased population places A.
900 more mouths at Uncle Sans
breakfast table every morning.
"The farmer of the future will most
certainly have more reason to be
thankful than the farmer Of the re-
cent past. There is plenty of evil
dence to bear out that view.
"The best informed men in the ag-
ricultural field are convinced that the
next 10 or Is years will see farming
advance into a period of remarkable
prosperity"

MANY GAME BIRDS
TAKEN BY HUNTERS

Nearly 100000 game birds were
killed in Minnesota during the sea-
son of 1926, according to an estimate
of the Game and Fish department
based upon the reports of hunters re-
ceived last year.
AS usual, the list is headed by mi
gratory aquatic fowl, particularly
ducks and coots or rice hens.
Although most hunters may be un-
der the impression that more blue
bills are taken than any other species
of wild duck, the records disclose that
mallards were in majority during the
season of 1926. Of course, the esti-
mated kill was 582,173, while blue
bills numbered 574,32O.
Blue-wing teal were third in or
der, with a kill of PSI, 1896, while the
kill of green-wing teal numbered
213,496, redheads, 152,6O8,-~and the
canvasbacks, 106,617.
Fewer goldeneyes were taken than
any other species, the total being
only 1898, while among the II
species listed there are relatively
few numbers of ruddy, merganser
and black ducks. The merganser es-
pecially, is not esteemed highly for
food.
Of all the aquatic fowl taken, coots,
or rice hens, rated third, with $780,
PA.
Only 3,517 geese of all species were
taken. These included 2,614 Canada
honkers, 593 lesser geese, 210 white
fronted geese, and 100 blue geese.
The kill of ringnecked pheasants is
placed at 40,023. 1t was the first
open season on that species, and was
restricted by executive order to two
days of shooting except in three coun-
ties.
The reports indicate almost 3OO,-
900 gray and fox squirrels were taken
during the season.
The seasons bag can only be esti-
mated, inasmuch as number of
hunters neglect to report as required
by law. The estimate however, is
based upon the reports, received, and
the number of licenses actually issu-
ed.
