MINNESOTA HUNTERS CODE


classification of sportsmen has been printed
and nlmrods would do well to read the list
before starting in quest of game.
Here are the salient points in regard to
hunting in farmers fields:
Always ask for the privilege of hunting on
farm-posted not pcsted-frst introducing your
self, giving name and address.
If permission is granted, inquire of the occu-
pant if there is any portion he does not wish you
to hunt on-because of growing crops, stock, etc.
Ask the farmer to hunt with you.
Park your car out of the way in the yard
be quiet
pants of house.
If game is found, be reasonable, leave some
for the next man.
Upon returning to the car show your kill, if
any, to the farmer, and offer him portion.
If investigation shows one at home on
farm-do not hunt
Prevent your dog from chasing stock-do not
kill cats on farms.
Do not discharge firearms within 200 yards of
farm home, domestic Enthusiastically
those in harness, or from highway.
Do not climb over fences; crawl under or use
the gate where possible. Close all gates securely
when found closed.
Report all damage you may do while hunting
Never run away from an approaching farmer
in the feld-all men despise coward.
FINDING THAT SOME OF THE BOYS
at Proctor Academy were playing the slot
machines, the headmaster, DR.. ]. Halsey
Gulick, went to police headquarters, secured
confscated machine and set it up in the
mathematics room. He then had the ma
thematics instructor work up problem in
volving the law of mathematical probability
to be solved by playing the machine with
''phony" money.
The boys learned that player hits the
jack pot once in 1000 times-at nickel a
throw, that meant it would cost about $500
to win SIS. They learned also that the next
highest payoff was once in 1000 plays-it
cost 500 to win 81.
The boys soon gave up gambling.-The
Rotarian.
THE STATE CONSERVATION DE-
partment is to be commended on shorten
ing the pheasant season, in view of the
shortage of birds. 1t is a considerably simpler
incidentally, it is well the department was
not robbed of any part of it's fees as sug-
gested at each legislative session, since
small game license receipts are likely to be
considerably smaller than usual this year.
''THE APPEARANCE OF WOODROW
Wilson Davis in the lineup of the Toronto
baseball team shows the passage of time"
Yes, the Grover Clevelands, the Theodore
Roosevelts and the William organs are drop
ping out of athletics one by one as their legs
slow up two by two.-Kansas City Star.
ONE OF THE COMMON CON-
plants when the city starts new safe traf-
fic campaign is that it drives business away
from the city. The truth is that few towns
mete fewer traffic fines and that most peo-
pie like to trade where they feel law and
order prevails and consideration is given of
their safety.
PERSONALLY WE DON'T THINK
much of Hugo Blacks appointment to the
supreme court, in view of his background,
but it is noticeable that the Republicans
seem more excited about it than members
of the groups which the Klan opposed.
DELANEY GOES ONTO THE GOV
eminent payroll and Landy comes off and
if there is anyone who thinks the Demo-
cratic party is better off for the change he
must be as lonely as the last living member
of Last Mans club.
THE STATE CORN HUSKING CON-
test committees have pile of work ahead.
Don't begrude them few minutes. of your
time if called upon. Remember it is proper
handling of affairs such as this which puts
a city on the map.
THE LITERARY DIGEST GUESSED
wrong on the last election and it's out of
business but the sport writer's all guessed
wrong on the last election and it's out of
and they'll be making just as many predic-
tions this week.
TO PEOPLE WHO JUST READ THE
news this newspaper costs So per year but
for the housewife who does her shopping
with the help of it's advertisements, the
average weekly savings amounts to that
much.
A CORRESPONDENT PUTS FOR

buttons on new shirts ought to be fixed on
with the same loving care as the price labels.
