SUSPENDED Sentences Encourage
Law ViOlatOrs

Tendency on the part Of many
justices of the peace to grant sus.
pended sentences to game law VIC.
lators is handicaping enforcement
Of the game laws.
This charge was made by George
Weaver, superintendent Of the
Game Warden Service, in a report
made last week to Erling Swenson,
director of the Division Of Game
and Fish, State Department Of Con-
servation.
Not only has this tendency caus-
ed considerable loss in revenue, Mr..
weaver said, but it also encourages
violations of our laws.
Mr.. Weaver recommends that the
laws be 80 amended as to provide
that all fines in game law violations
be turned over to the state, and
where a guilty party fails to pay a
fine and serves any time in jail, the
state reimburse the county for the
cost of his keep.

Last week the troop planted a
tree on the boulevard along the
south side of the Congregational
church, which they dedicated to
the mothers with a very fitting
ceremony. The troop had selected
a young tree and in planting this
tree, every scout took part so 1t
can truthfully be said that the en-

Commissioner Ralph Kowalke gave
an appropriate talk in which he
brought out the purposes and mo-
tives prompting this deed. Mrs.
Morgan responded for the mothers
in a very graceful manner. Scout
Robert Rydholm gave a short talk
of appreciation to the mothers
Robert brought out very nicely the
fact that mothers, although they
hold no special titles in the scout
ing organization, still they are the
scouts silent partner who really
do more than anyone else to make
a real success Of scouting.

Worlds First Fruit Tree Patent

something better than has ever
grown before in the world of plants
and trees.
The first Fruit Tree in the his
tory of the world to be distinguish
ed by a Patent issued by the United
States or any other Government, is
the Hal-Berta Giant Peach.
The name "Hal-Berta Giant" is
a combination of the names Hale"
and "Elberta"-two of the best
known peaches. The new peach is
mammoth in size and is a truly
marvellous fruit-rosy checked, de-
Iicious to eat, and ideal to can. The
experts of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture-after all kinds of
tests and study-decided it was diff
ferent from any other peach and
therefore this first Fruit Tree Pat
has officially been issued to
the Starks of Louisiana, Mo-, who
gave the Delicious and Golden De-
licious Apples to the world.

done over to harmonic with the

offer greater convenience if ar
ranged differently. A big kitchen,
awkwardly planned, may be made
much more compact and s~atisfac-
tory if part of the floor space were
given over to a breakfast nook and
the remainder of the wall space
covered with shelves and cup
boards. Additional windows might
ease housekeeping tasks.
The attic should not go to waste.
1t may be possible to transform it
into a room. Insulating material
will make the attic livab!e and at
the same time enhance the comfort
of the rest of the house.
A new garage, or improvements
to the old one, may also be advis-
able. New drives, walks, terraces
and shrubbery would make a splen-
did finishing touch for the home
modernization project.

Growth OF Poultry
To Be Expanded

The increased demand for poul-
try and fresh eggs owe present pro-
,duction is leading to a conserva-
tive expansion of the poultry in
dustry in North Carolina, accord
ing to Roy S. Dearstyne, head of
the poultry department at State
College.
Hatcheries in the State are al
ready booked far ahead, he said, and
indications point to a favorable
season for the hatchery industry.
The development of hatcheries
within the State leads to a balanced
he added, since the poul-
erymen utilize the superior products
of the hatchery in improving their
flocks and the hatcheries pay pre-
miums for good eggs from the
poultrymen. The two phases of
the industry are interdependent.
As the Matching season ap-
proaches, poultrymen should start
putting their brooding and housing
equipment in good Condition and
lay plans for managing their flocks
for a successful brooding season,
said.
Probably the most important
factor in the success or failure Of
the coming year lies in the quality
of baby chicks Matched " purchas-
ed, he continued. If the chicks are
not of proven stock, high in vitality
and descended from high produc-
ing, blood-tested parents, no
amount of equipment, care in feed
ing or management will develop a
quality flock.
The production of quality chicks
is expensive, he pointed out, but it
is we'll worth the extra cost. Con-
slant culling to eliminate low pro-
ducers, blood tests, and sanitation
and feeding cost money. But 4
few cents different in the price of
a chick may mean a difference of
SO eggs a year in the production of
the bird when it has matured.

In many cases, serious damage can

The mere removal of ginger

an old porch converted into a con-

suits. They should be checked be-
fore winter weather makes arduous
demands upon them.
Insulation of side walls and roof
might also be done at this time.
Windows and doors should be
weather-stripped for added COM
and fuel economy, and ineffi-
|cient windows and doors repaired
or replaced. Easement windows
or French doors may add greatly

The outer walls may require
only a new Goa of paint to put
them in tip-top condition. Any
loose clapboards or shingles mus,
be frightened or replaced first, and
the painting should be done befors
