Saturday, and the following day, not
withStanding the rain which fell
heavily on these days and made travel
in the woods hardship. The first
days of the season always prove fatal
to the deer population. The animals
become quite tame during the two
years of the closed season and have
little fear of humans The lombard
ment of the first few days puts them
on their guard and after that they
are harder to get.
More licenses will be issued in the
State of Minnesota this year than ever
before. The rush in all the counties
where the open season prevails was
so great that the supply was exhausted
and rush orders to the printers for
more blanks prevailed. Everybody
with S225 was given a license upon ro-
quest and licenses were issued to every
one over IA years of age.
The biennial hunting season is boon
to the merchants in this section of the
country and comes along just after
the tourist season closes Red hats
have been sold out and a dearth of red
bandana handkerchiefs prevails in the
stores, A hunting camp with eight
people figures its supply list on the
basis of from $40 to SIS per day with
transportation and ammunition extra
The hunting season means something
for business but is tough on game con-
servation. The primitive in the man
comes to the front during the big game
season and everything that moves be-
comes a target. BY no possible manner
does a man decked out in hunting re-
gala resemble a deer but he has been
shot in mistake for deer, moose, rabbit
partridge, bear, squirrel or any other
moving object. The Strangest part OF
hunting physiology is that a hunter
who could not hit the inside of house,
will hit a man at any distance.

= THE HUNTING SEASON

Hunting accidents are being reported
and every day during the deer season
chronicles one or more fatalities. Up
to the hour this is written, no fatal
ShootingS have taken place in this
section although several narrow escapes
have been reported The lack of snow
makes the woods far more dangerous
than when the ground is white. Yes
terday we were informed of a case
where a hunters white topped boots
were shot at by an old seasoned hunter
in mistake for the white flag of a
deer Luckily he was not hit but
SliverS from a nearby tree struck the
man shot at who quickly dropped fiat
on the ground and awaited the coming
up of the shooter The parties i'm
mediately quit the woods. A remedy
for this class of carelessneSS has not
as yet been suggested. While there is
a law defining the act of killing a man
in the woods as manslaughter, it is too
late after the deed has been done.
Fatalities among the deer population
has been great. Every car passing
through the city this week has been
draped with one or more deer of all
sizes. A party coming up over the
Miller Trunk Tuesday claimed they
never saw so many dead deer in years.
Cars with five men were loaded with
five deer. 1t seems that the larger

HOLE IN ROOF POOR
HENHOUSE VENTILATOR

Cutting a hole in the roof is a poor
way to ventilate the poultry building
because it allows considerable heat to
escape, making the house cold, says
Prof. A. c. Smith, chief of the poultry
division at University Farm. Running
shaft through the roof to a point
near the floor is also a faulty method
because much of the moisture will
escape the shaft and accumulate near
the top of the room where the air is
warmest
The easiest and simplest method of
keeping the poultry house comfortable
with reference to temperature, moist
ure and ventilation, Mr. Smith says, is
to have it equipped with windows just
like those used in dwellings and then
use the upper sash for ventilating dur
ing extreme cold weather. The sash
may be dropped any distance required
by the conditions of wind and weather
but it should never be completely
closed, even on the coolest night.
There is no automatic system of
ventilation that will give complete
satisfaction, Mr.. Smith says. Any
system used will require adjustment
and sometimes this will have to be
given several times day.

Old Expression Traced

The expression "robbing Peter to
pay Paul" had it's origin in the rivalry
between st. Peters cathedral, now
Westminster abbey, and st. Paurs
cathedral In London. In 1850 an appro-
priation was made from st. Peters
to make up for deficit in the account
at st. Paul's. The action met with
opposition, the question being asked,
why rob st. Peter to pay st. Paul?"

MOSCOW, July 29.-Statistics,
as handled by Joseh Stain ana
other Soviet leaders, are not dull
rows of figures. They have move
ment and drama of their own, be-
cause they convey the sense OF a
great nation hurting itself breath
lessly into the future.
The unquestioned head OF the
Bolsheviks took the period of two
and half years from the last con-
gress of the party to this one as the
span for comparisons and contrasts.
Probably never in the history of
any country has such great expan-
sion been achieved in SO short a
time.
Delegates Applaud
A few basic figures suffice to indi-
cate this fact, although Stain him
self cited statistics for hours, his
citations being punctuated by
stormy applause from the delegates
crowding the Moscow opera house.
All industry in 1927 showed pro-
duction of 8,641 100000 gold rubles,
or az per cent above prewar pro-
duction in the same territory. This
year, it is already clear, the figure
will reach 80 per cent above the pre-
war-an increase, that is to say OF
77t5 per cent in about three years.
Freight on Increase
Railroad freight movement, II
per cent higher than before the
war three years ago, is SO per cent
higher at present
Even agriculture, fisheries and
lumber, more backward phases of
the national economy, showed to-
gether a growth of about 10 per
cent in the three years.
The national budget more than
doubled in the same periods; from
6,371 100000 rubles in 1927 to 49,
100000 this year.
Stain reflected the general pride
of Russian Com munists in their
claim that the Soviet union has
passed this year from a predomi-
nately farming nation to a pre-
dominately industrial nation.
Before the var So per cent Of the
total production of the country was
agricultural AZ per cent industrial.
Almost on Equality
Last year the division was almost
equal with a slight margin still for
agriculture. In 1880, Stain point
ed out, industry has So per cent of
the total and agriculture At.

statement evoked lusty cheers.
OF the industry under the
guidance Of the supreme council
of economy-that is to say, of the
planned and organized industry
about half now consists of the pro-
duction of machinery.
The significance of this was
stressed by Stain as providing a
permanent base for Soviet indie
pendence industrially from the rest
of the world.
