This law, enacted by the 1929 Le- gistlature, was said to be a part of a general movement among the game commissioners and sports mems organizations to impress the necessity of more careful hunting under modern conditions.
 Two hunters of Saginaw pleaded guilty to carrying firearms while under the influence of liquor. They were each fined $1O and court costs, and their shotguns confiscated.

Valley Truck Crops
Show Rapid Growth
Especial to The Herald.)

EDINBURG. Feb. l3.-Almost
phenomenal growth Of truck plant
ed since the last freeze Is being re-
ported by farmers throughout the
Valley. and the outlook for the 1880
crop is highly optimistic.
Young beans range from four to
six inches in height, and potatoes
and other crops are showing equal
growth. Production in the Edinburg
district IS expected to be somewhat
less this year than last. due TO the
greater amount Of land set to cit
rus, but a heavy yield is predicted
from the land now in truck.
A continued rise in the price Of
cabbage as the Valley shipments de-
crease is expected by dealers. as
cabbage from other states IS not yet
coming on the market in quantities
to promise lively competition.
