SHOOTING CHAMPION
Is VERSATILE WOMAN
Miss Marjorie Foster, Who Won
Kings Prize, Engineer, Car
penter and Organizer.

LONDON Miss Marjorie
Foster, who has further added to
women's laurels by being the first of
her sex to win the coveted Kings prize
for Workmanship at Bisley, is very
versatile person. She is artistic, a
clever engineer and carpenter, a born
organizer and very tactful and SYM
pathetic.
During the war she did aircraft work,
and it was only because she was a
woman that she did not get good job
in a draftSmans Office after the
armistice. She now runs successful
chicken farm, with the assistance Of a
girl friend. They do all the work
themselves, including the building Of
the houses and the killing and pre-
pairing Of the fowls. Miss Foster found
killing "a bit awful at first, but when
she had learned exactly how to do it
she began by killing in the dark till
felt had conquered my feelings"
Miss Foster competed for the Kings
prize last year, in spite of the fact that
her finger was in a splint When the
time came for her to shoot she calmly
removed the Splint-and shot excel
1ently, in spite of the pain.

JAPANESE POLICY
IN CHINA DEFENDED
University Professor De-
ClareS Case Parallel to U. S.
Under Monroe Doctrine.
ny the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
wILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. August g.
Japan is justified in maintaining policies
In China which are comparable with
the Monroe Doctrine and Caribbean
policies of the United States, DR.. George
II. BlakeSlee, professor of international
relations at Clark University, told the
Far Eastern Round Table of the Insti-
tlIte of Politics today.
"The Japanese point out that both
countries hold territories by lease L:
foreign lands which they regard as vital
to their respective national interests,
he said. japanese hold in Manchurla
admittedly part of China, the Lao Tung
Peninsula, including Port Arthur and
DaiFen by lease, and the South Man
z3arian Railway by concession; while
the United States holds the Panama
Canal Zone and the Panama Canal and
railroad by lease of a Caribbean coun-
try. Both the United States and Japan
would defend their respective landholdS
at almost any cost"
Philip Marshall Brown, professor of
international law at Princeton Univer-
sity, attacked the premise of paralleliSm
between Americas policy in the Carib-
bean and Japanese policy in China on
the ground that the United States pol
icy has been based on a desire to pro-
mote peace and secure safety of the
Panama Canal, while japanese inter-
vention in Manchuria has been nation
aliStic.
Disagree on Policy.
Yusuke Tsurumi, former member of
the Japanese Diet, discussing Japan s
attitude toward the question, said:
"Japan's primary interest in China is
that Japan cannot maintain safety
without the integrity of China is pre-
served; therefore, Japan is willing 70
cooperate with any power or powers to
maintain the political integrity of
China"
DIR. Yuen-Ii LANG, former judge Of
the Shanghai Provisional Court, dis
cussing the Chinese view of the situa-
ton, declared that neither the Monroe
Doctrine nor the Caribbean policy of
the United States can serve as analogies
for japanese claim to predominance in
the Far East. The Monroe Doctrine has
operated for more than 100 years, and
the Caribbean policy of the United
States has not been without beneficial
sertion of paramount influence in the
Far East is only of recent origin
Greater Metals Demand.
Prof. Edwin F. Gay of Harvard Uni
versity, speaking before the conference
on Recent Economic Progress in
Europe" said:
THE extension of the gold standard
to virtually all countries save China
and the recognition by governments
that a considerable gold reserve is
necessary for a stable monetary system
will cali for increased quantities of
precious metals. Both theoretically and
historically there is reason to believe
that the diminishing rate will be a
significant factor in determining our
price trends in the future. There Is
every indication that the gold supply
viii not prove sufficient to sustain the
price level and we may anticipate a
slow, often interrupted, but prolonged
decline in commodity prices"

Floods sweeping through the east
coast lowlsnds in Nicaragua have par
tally halted the tracing of the canal
line there by United States Army En-
gtneers.
The War Department today published
a report from an engineering party
working in the coastal swampS of the
lower San Juan River, between the Rio
Negro and the Rio San Juanille, that
they had been forced to move when
three days Of heavy rains brought water
above the level of their camp site.
Since the flood, the report said, the
engineers had found it impracticable
to continue work, since what appeared
TO be dry land was covered by 6 or 8
feet of water.

We had none of these things The sheep had no chance to become accli- mated, but even though they had been, they were not breed to adapt all at once to Westward Alaska conditions. There is a breed, developed in Australia and New Zealand where moist condi- tions underfoot and climatic con- ditions are similar Give me a good Romney sheep and an open shed and dogs and herders and I'll guarantee to furnish the best mutton and wool in the world on Westward Islands. l want a dry place for the sheep to bed during the cold, wet snoWs of spring and I want some hay, Silage or cotton seed cake during few months of the tough period of spring. \ want experienced herders and sheep dogs. Then I will furnish all AL aska cities and the Outside with the finest wool and mutton they ever saw.
 "Although have been in the stock game all my life, 1 don't think I ever saw stock fatten So quickly as they do on the Alaska pasture age as soon as it starts in the spring. From along in May they begin to pick up at once and within month they look like a new man. Cattle will gO through the winter without feed, but it is we'll to have a reserve supply on hand in case of extraordinary bad weather. Sheep should be fed for a time in late spring, especially at the approach of the lambing season
 INV observations here in the past few months have convinced me that Alaska offers a wonder full opportunity for the stockman I intend to use whatever influence have to induce my stock-raising friends in Washington to look this chance over It is just a question of getting the right breed and be- ling able to pay for few mistakes and then they can ga ahead and make money"

Drought May Shorten

New York, Sept. 9-Because Of
the drought recommendation was
made to shorten the duck shooting
season by the international As
ISOLATION of Game, Fish and Con-
servation Commissioners in con-
vention at Toronto, Canada, last
week. The recommendations were
sent to the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, which has jur-
isdiction over migratory birds
through the Bureau of Biological
Survey, and to the Canadian Game
and Fisheries Dept.
A survey of the nesting grounds
in Canada, where IS percent of the
wild ducks are raised, shows that
only SO per cent Of the usual an
nual hatch was Matched this year.
Lack of water was cited as the ma
jor cause for the small hatch. ac-
cording to the various Provincial
game commissioners.
The ducks that fly out Of Canada
on their annual fight South this
year will face grave problem
throughout the winter, according to
Carlos Avery president of the
American Game Protective Assoc
iation here, because of the drying
up of thousands of lakes, ponds and
streams.
Although fall rains may fill
many of these watering places the
duck foods. Roots that may re-
main alive will not sprout again
until spring.

Farm Bureau Wars With
Thieves Of Farm Property
Detectives Have Been Assigned To
Hunt Outlaws Who Modest
Members FlOckS

The Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation this week sent opera
tives into thief-infested districts of
Minnesota to hunt down roost
robbers and pilferers of farm pro-
perty. This action followed receipt
of reports from several commun-
tiles that chicken thieves were at
work and had raided a number of
FARMS causing considerable loss.
On receipt Of notice that Farm
Bureau members were suffering
losses, detectives were assigned to
the districts in question and are
now working out clues that have
been furnished them by the vic
TINS of the thieves. AS in past
years, Farm Bureau leaders will
follow the arrest of farm thieves.
In a number of instances recently
roost robbers have been given
prison sentences of several years
duration.
The courts are beginning to
realize that the robbing of farm
is as much of crime as the break
ing into a store or filling station,
and penalties are being made
accordingly. Few thieves are
escaping with the reprimands.
small fines or ten-day sentences
that a few years ago marked such
prosecutions, Farm Bureau leaders
assert.
AS this is the harvest season for
farm thieves as well as for farm
ers mark their poultry and hogs
through the methods now easily
available; also that they keep a
shotgun in the corner, primed for
action at the first warning squawk
from the hen house.

l. Y. Nelson Has
Unique Experience
Six Pound PickeIel Found on
Outfit Which Was Lost

]. v. Nelson, baker at the Fisch-
er Bakery, told a Herald repre-
sentative one of the best fish yarns
of the season, the past week. The
story sounded terribly fishy, and
only after it had been verified
by several witnesses did he believe
the preposterous yarn.
Mr.. Nelson went fishing on Sank
Lake a week ago last Sunday and
was enjoying some of the best kind
of sport, when back ZACH caused
the rod and reel to fly from his
hand. It went to the bottom in
about twenty-five feet of water and
was Immediately lost to view, and
the fisherman went home disillus-
toned and heart sick.
During the week Mr.. Nelson tried
several times to find the lost rod
but all efforts were to no avail. At
last he hit upon the happy idea
of taking piece of bed spring and
dragging the lake. He went out
last Friday and within a very
short time he found the rod and
reel. Upon bringing it from the
water he found six pound pick
erel, which had attached itself to
the bass oreno. Mr.. Nelson gave
the fish to the man who so kindly
supplied the bed spring with which
he was able to regain the valuable
fishing outfit. Sci
However, we wish to state that
although bed spring was used to
locate the lost article, this was no
dream. He did not bump his head
against the bed post and wake up
