Mirup Run,Ors on Ducks
Corrected by Commission

Rumors on duck hunting laws in the
state have been circulating thick and
fast. First it was claimed that the
season would be closed. Then along
came a report that hunting would be
permitted only in the afternoon of the
days when ducks could be shot.
'Dick" Bailey of Virginia, member
of the Conservation Commission, has
set the thing right and has dispelle6
the gloom that prevailed the ranks Of
the duck shooters At the Septembe,
meeting of the commission the follow
ing was given to the press:
Contrary to erroneous reports cir
culating about the state, hunting OF
ducks will be permitted from sunrise
TO sunset daily except on Mondays and
Tuesdays, which are restricted, during
the Minnesota duck season opening
October and continuing to November
IL.
The only exception to this rule will
be on the opening day, October 8, when
hunting will be prohibited until noon
when the season formally opens.
No hunting will be permitted on
Mondays and Tuesdays during the
season.
The season for hunting all upland
game birds is restricted to half days
with shooting prohibited in the morn
ings."

ROAD WORK
MANY HOURS
Highway Department Provide.
Work for $4,000 With u.
S. Funds Allotted.

More than seven million man-hourS
of labor on Minnesota highways have
been provided by the $10,000,000 emer-
gency employment allotment given the
state highway department by the fed
eral government in the past year, &C
cording to N. w. Elsberg, highway COM
missioner.
The construction program financed
by this appropriation is now nearing
completion. 1t was begun in the fall
of 1888 and was spread through prac-
tically all the counties in the state.
The seven million man-hours of road
labor is equivalent to % weeks OF
nearly six months of continuous work
for 10000 men. Government records
indicate that for every two men giver
employment directly on road conStruc-
ton, three are provided with jobs ir
related industries, principally producing
and transporting materials and equip
ment. This would bring up the en-
1lSuuC 1O1 UllC N1liulCOOUd P1O-
gram to $4,000 men.
Highway labor for the $10,00O,O0O pro-
gram was supplied through the U. S
Employment Service, federal agency
picking men according to governments
regulations. Local labor was favored
in all cases, says MIR. Elsberg.
In addition to providing wages fol
thousands of men throughout the state
Mr.. Elsberg said the funds gave Min
nesota the following highway improve
mentS:
Grading, 377 miles, cost $685., 900;
subgrade treatment Is miles, $31, 1000;
crawling, 672 miles, $1,44O,OOO; BIZ
luminous surfacing, 1872 miles, $450,OOO;
waterbound macadam, 81 miles, $685.
600; asphalt paving of 40-feet minimum
width, Is miles, $731 900; concrete paw
ing and shouldering, Al miles q miles
of 40-foot width and balance 20-foot
width, $1,594,OO0 30 grade separation
bridges, $1,O44 ,969; IS river bridges,
100000; special curb and gutter work,
$500; railroad crossing signals, $2,1OO
These figures are revised estimates
which will be very close to the final
detailed accounting after all jobs have
been completed, Mr.. Elsberg said.
Beginning next July 1, Minnesota will
return to the old system of federal aid
on matching basis, all emergency
highway appropriations coming to an
end. After that date the state must
put up money, dollar for dollar, with
the federal government, and can re-
ceive a maximum of about $4,000, 900
a year if it can be matched.

COUNTY TESTS
BANGS DISEASE
DR.. Thompson Taking Appli-
cations for the Tests In
This Vicinity.

DR.. j. E. Thompson has interviewed
herd owners in this vicinity and re-
ports a liberal response, towards the
national program by the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture eliminating ami
mails infected with Bangs disease,
otherwise known as contagious abortion.
The contracts for the tests are being
sent to st. Paul and testing will be
commenced after stock is housed for
the winter.
Benefits will be three-fold: Cd save
the farmer losses caused by cows not
coming in calf; CD reduce the amount
of livestock to be fed in the present
period of feed shortage; CD protect
human lives.
Milk from affected cows is one of the
causes of Undalant fever, disease of
human beings, now present in the iron
range country.
Under the leadership of County Agent
Neubauer, applications are being taken
for the government test from dairymen
who suspect the disease to be present
in their herds.
Not only is the subject of interest
to rural residents but it is also getting
careful attention by health officers in
the towns. At Hibbing it is compulsory
that all cows furnishing raw milk for
consumption within the village be sub
jected to the test. DR.. w. E. Welsh of
Hibbing is taking applications through
out Stuntz township.
DR.. T. P. Nankervis is taking ap-
plications at Eveleth. At Virginia and
Chisholm it is possible the governing
bodies will insist on the test as a pre-
requisite for delivery of raw milk to the
inhabitants. For several years past,
DR.. E. L. Gutschenritter has made
recommendation in his annual reports
to the Virginia council that the test
for Bangs disease he applied to cattle
furnishing the raw milk supply of that
city.
The test, Agent Neubauer stated, con-
sists in taking small sample of blood,
possibly three thinDlefulS, from the
jugular vein of the suspected animal.
The sample is sent to the state uni
verSity where it is put through a
scientific process by experts and the
results are classed as positive or other
wise. If positive, second test may be
necessary before the animal is con-
demned. The government is making
the first test without charge to the
owner, but the latter may or may not
be called upon to stand the expense of
the second test. However, the owner in
making his application must agree to
stand the cost of the second test if it
becomes necessary.
That condemned animals may be
slaughtered for beef and the beef used
without danger, was stated as an alb
solute fact by Agent Neubauer.
The owner of condemned animal
receives an indemnity plus the salvage
value of the carcass up to the appraisal
value placed by the veterinarian. In
the case of grade animals, the minimum
indemnity is $40, while for purbreds
the minimum is $50. These are the
lowest possible figures the farmer will
receive if existence of the disease is
demonstrated in his herd.
