PORTLAND, Me-. March For
the second time within the past
quarter century Maine has found
that offering a bounty on any form
OF wild life is likely to be costly.
A good many years ago the legis-
lature of the Pine Tree State be-
came convinced that the ordinary
harbor seal of it's coast was a
menace to its food fisheries. So it
made a law offering a bounty of
81 for every seal killed.
For purposes of Identification the
seal hunters were required to bring
in the seals nose.
Disagreeable Task
Checking up, or literally count.
ing noses" was a disagreeable task.
Town clerks and other officials,
some of whom were women, soon
came to take the hunters word for
what he had, giving perhaps no
more than a casual look at the
display of noses.
Quick to grasp the possibilities of
such incomplete inspection, certain
Indians of the east.
ern Maine coast developed into
mighy seal hunters. The brought
in noses by the dozen and then by
the hundred. The State paid out
several thousand dollars before it
was discovered that the shrewd
Indians had been collecting on syn.
thetic noses, so to speak.
Now it is porcupines. The pres
ent legislature has been asked to
the bounty of IS cents it
has been paying for every porcu.
pine killed. 1t Is required that four
legs and a nose be produced in
verification of a claim for a dead
porcupine.

GAIN ON EARTH

LANCASTER, Pa, March ~
Asserting that there is a greater
call for the. church now than ever
before to combat the forces Of evil
threatening disaster to Christian
ideals, Bishop C. s. Breyfogel, OF
the East Pennsylvania Conference.
Evangelical Church, called upon
delegates and laymen to prepare for
greater tasks.
Bishop Breyfogel stressed modern
conditions which he claimed were
aiming at the very foundation OF
Christion thought and life.
"Sin has left the mark of Cain
upon the face OF this age" he
stated in his address. THE greed
for money has destroyed the more
human sentiments. Political dis
honor has discredited some Of the
most cherished institutions among
men.
"The love OF amusement Of a
superficial and degrading type is
crowding out the more serious con-
Germs of life. The sanctity of the
home is invaded. Marriage vows
are made with a view of dissolVing
them in the divorce courts. In
fact. the moral and religious sense
OF the public has been shocked so
often that 1t is in danger OF be-
coming blunted by familiarity with
fragrant violations OF the most
sacred social laws"
He also stressed "the diabolical
cunning and monstrous inhumanity
OF the liquor traffic that lies in
wait at every doorstep and casts its
baneful shadow over every Legisla-
tive assembly"

- Os =
The number OF Industrial wage.
aarners in the United States is
decreasing. but the total wages
paid is increasing. So is the
value created by their work.
Instead of the number of Of In
dustrial plants increasing they are
decreasing, reflecttng the elimina.
tion of small concerns and the
drift toward bigness.
The spending power of workers,
after allowing for the shrinkaye
in what the dollar will buy, has
Increased.
In agriculture, too, there has
been a notable decrease in the
number of people gainfully EN-.
/ loyed. Here, also, the more gen.
eral employment of machinery AMI
labor-saving implements has in.
creased production per worker.
Partly Explained
These facts embody part of the
explanation of the greater prosper.
ity enjoyed in America than else
where. Ability TO produce more
at less cost has N ade it possible
for Americans to buy and con-
sumo more during this period of
rising wages.
These figures. prepared by the

A DREAM By H. c. Nunan Continued from Page 13 :.

That such business is profit able is demonstrated by the fact that the Ginnie fleet of Boston now numbers several hundred good sized boats, all power pro- pelled; and they are still fishing similar types of fish to those caught 20 years ago.
 It has been demonstrated that this type of fishing can be done in this district because a few years back, during a hard win ter, numerous men, using hali- but dOrieS, made a good living for months catching small fish in TOngass NarroWs and around our islands.
 With the deveIopment of such a fishing population, and ship ping from here by refrigerated vessels, Carl Strong being too AAAOoCoO d1COSCC11C1 III 11OU U1 HE ing this matter up as one of his dreams, we shall have an op- pOrtunity to distribute lots of money in Ketchikan as our fish, varieties not caught at present, will go out to the markets of the United States in various forms, flllets and otherwise. Many of these markets are be- ing invaded by east coast fish even as far west as the Pacific Coast.
 With the development of such a fishery, we shall no longer be dependent on two major items of halibut and salmon as we are at present. Think this over.

section or two of timber and a hay wire sawmill, who didn't have much Of any sence and figured that so long as he could saw lumber at a profit and was an American citizen he had as much right to be in the timber business as they.
 This attitude on the part of the small mill man of course is very wrong. When any man or group of nen have through the manipulation Of laws or weight of money establish d monopoly it is very wrong al most criminal in fact for any citizen to ask for any right he may claim to have if such rights in anyway em- tarass or inconvenience said mono poly. Don't you think so?
 Of course the Forestry Depart nent, operating under the banner Of conservation is seeing to it that privately owned timber is harvested first so that the timber owners will hct be stuck for dividends altho of course the government timber rots and burns and in good many To- calities is losing value the longer 1t stands
 The privately owned timber is un- fortunate as to location. It is to be regretted that the settlement of the Northwest was not restricted as has been done in Alaska. It seems that the legislators ahead of Roose- velt were asleep at the switch and a lot of irresponsible people slipped in and took Up timber land Then they organized state government and so many more people got their fin gers in the p!e of government that they mussed things all up and the matter of taxes was beyond the con- trOl of any Bureau at Washington.
 However to equalize the matter the price Of stumpage on Govern ment timber has gradually increased to cover the carrying charges and
