 'Areas where large brown bears have complete protection consist of S,534 square miles, or 9 per cent of the total range, and include Glacier Bay. and katmai National Monu- ments, Unimak Island, which lies within the Aleutian Islands Reserva- tion, Aofgnak Island and four smaller areas. Although hunting is permit ted in the following areas, there are within them many thousands of square miles of inaccessible country that constitute virtual sanctuaries for these animals.
 "In 40,938 square miles, or 40 per cent of the total range of the large brown bears, residents and nonresi- dents are allowed bag limit of two animals in an open season. from Sep tember 1 to Junet 20. During this apparently long season, however, the bears are in hibernation approXi mately. six months. The areas com ing under limitation. on season and bag limit consist of portions of the mainand totaling 39,000 square miles and 1,245 square miles of the most thicllly populated bear range on the north side of Kodiak Island, also all the islands of Hinchinbrook, Mon tague, Hawkins, Yacobi and Shuyak.
 "In 22,516 square miles, or 23 per cent of the total range of these bears, nonresidents may hunt during the open season, while residents are per mittd to hunt the year round, al- though both classes of hunters are limited to a seasonal bag of two.

 'In $40 square miles of main land and 2,565 square miles of Kodiak Island, nonresidents may hunt large brown bears under the same seasonal and bag limitations, while residents are restricted by neither bag limit nor close season. This area comprises 25 per cent of the total range. of the big brown bear.
 "A nonresident hunting large brown or grizzly bears is required to be accompanied by registered guide. In areas where a resident is limited either by season OF bag. limit. or bys both, he is permitted to kill a bear in defense of life or property.
 No person may take large brown bears with the aid or use of a dog, a set gun of any description. steel bear trap having a spread of more. than nine inches, or by poison in any form. The sale of the skins of these animals is prohibited under the Alas ka Game Law and Regulations.
 Various estimates have been pub- lished as to the number of brown pears in Alaska, the majority of these having been made by persons who have spent comparatively short time in the Territory and who have based their findings on observations over a small portion of J the animals total range.

Old ime Inns Turn

London.-Since the motorized
horse power of modern life has so
greatly replaced the old four-footed
variety. English inns, no matter
how ancient. have had to keep up
the same pace.
The inns, in fact, now within
reach of all the large cities by au-
tomobile or public bus, have sprung
to new life. Superficially, they are
the same as in stage-coach days
huge timbered buildings with in
teriors lofty, raftered and cool; but
their stables today are garages, and

Ing have changed to the style of

5 FLEE FLAMES NEAR EASTON
Family Unaware of Fire in Their
Home Until Aroused by NeighbOr

A two story frame dwelling on
the farm of Judge William H. Ad-
kins, of Easton, Md, tenanted by
Harmon Callahan, on the Dover
Road leading from Easton to
Kingston, about four miles from
Easton, was destroyed by fire
Thursday night. Shreve Morris and
family of four were asleep at the
time and knew nothing of the fire
until awakened by Albert F'ike, a
neighbor, living about half a mile
away. The Morrises barely had
time to make their escape in their
night clothing. They lost nearly all
their clothing and furniture upon
which they had no insurance. The
fire is supposed to have started
from a defective fiue in chimney.
Easton, Trappe and Oxford Fire
Companies saved adjoining build
ings, several of which caught fire
two or three times. The loss is es-
timated at about $4,000.

TOMATOES FALL
OFF DOWN STATE
Yield Likely to Be Is Per Cent
Short of The Crop Produc-
tiOn of a Year Ago
APPLES BEANS SHORT

Although agricultural experts in
this State report that at present
there are no composite figures
available on the tomato crop for
Delaware, they estimate that the
crop this year is short about Is
per cent of last year. It was stat
ed that several canneries did not
operate this year, and that al
though the quality of the tomatoes
was good, there was less planting
this year than in 1881. Ed Willim,
Jr., farm agent Of the Agricultural
Department, for New Castle coun-
ty, said the county figures are not
available but his observations and
the scattered reports so far receiy-
ed are indicative Of a crop about
Is per cent less than last year. The
production, he stated, will be more
than five tons per acre. w. T.Der-
rickson, Bureau of Markets, Dover.
said reports available show the ap-
pie crop of Delaware this year
would be about five per cent less
than last year, but only about two
or three per cent below the five
year average for the State. The
quality of Delaware apples this
year, however, he said, is first
class. Mr.. Derrickson reported
that although the apples may have
suffered slightly from drought in
July, this has been good apple
year He said the same is true Of
tomatoes. Farmers are suffering
from the low prices. Tomatoes in
five-eighths baskets, have sold as
low as 10 and II cents a basket.
and are now averaging around Is
and IL cents a basket, occasionally
at 18 cents. Green lima beans.
considered a good average crop on
which to judge farm activities,
show a marked decrease this year
over last year. Last year 8,400
acres were grown This year only
3, 800 acres were planted The pro
duction for the State was 8,148,-
600 pounds, last year, compared
with 100000 this year The pro-
duction of beans for the entire
country is about so per cent Of
what it was last year, according to

ture, University of Delaware. Most

NEW TRUCK LAW
IN PENNSYLVANIA
Law Which Becomes Effective
October Is, Explained By
Linnaeus L. Hopes
MISUNDERSTAND LAW

misunderstanding of law which
becomes effective October Is, re-
quiring Pennsylvania registration
for "foreign-owned" motor vehicles
engaged in the transportation of
persons and property for compen-
sation, is cleared up in statement
today by the Legal Department OF
the Delaware Automobile Associa-
ton, A. M. A 1928 Market Street,
Wilmington. Many Delaware truck
owners whose vehicles operate in
Pennsylvania have been under the
impression that the change in
Pennsylvania law would affect all
classes of commercial vehicles I'M
der the terms of the Act. Linnaeus
L. Hopes, Executive Secretary cf
the Association clarifies the situa-
ton in the following statement
THE Pennsylvania Legislature
amended an act which required
Pennsylvania registration for for
eign-owned vehicles operating n
the Commonwealth for the trans
portation of persons, either regu-
larly according to schedule or for
a period exceeding thirty Gays in
the calendar year. The Act was
amended to include vehicles trans
porting property for compensation
and reduces the exempt period
from thirty days to Is days. Penn
sylvania drivers of the vehicles in
this classification are affected in
the same manner, Delaware licens-
es being required under the Della
ware Reciprocal Act. Instead of
all commercial vehicles, as the pub
lie appears to understand, it only
vehicles engaged in transporting
passengers or property for hire
such as buses, omnibuses. moving
vans and truck transports come
within the provisions Of the act.
Passenger cars and all other class
es of commercial vehicles owned in
Delaware may operate in Pennsyl-
Vania under the reciprocity laws
without Pennsylvania registration
and without time limitation. Sim
ilarly, all Pennsylvania passenger
cars and other vehicles not in the
for hire classification may operate
in Delaawre without being requir-
ed to carry Delaware registration" "
Below is given copy of letter re-
ceived by the Delaware Automobile
Association from Harrison G. Kill
dare, Council in charge Of the Key
stone Automobile Club. "The fol-
lowing are the principles to be OBJ
served by Delaware trucks operat-
ed in Pennsylvania: l Trucks
owned by non-residents will not be
required to take out Pennsylvania
registration where they are used
entirely by the owner on his own
business. 2 Trucks owned by
nCn-residents operated within this
state for the transportation of
persons or property for hire, must
register such vehicles if used in
this state for more than Is days in
the course of a calendar year 3
Trucks owned by non-residents and
regularly operated exclusively in
this state must take out Pensyl-
vania registration"
