SEEKS ACTION, ALIEN FISHING IN ALASKA WATERS
Delegate Dimond Pressing Action, Especially on
 Bristol Bay Area
By J. J. ECKLES Secretary to the Delegate

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 18. I- Especial Correspondence) = In view of the apparent certainty that the Japanese will again invade the Bering Sea and Bristol Bay with their floating canneries when the Alaska salmon run in that area starts next year-and that these an- nal raids may be expected to con- tinue on an expanding scale as long as the salmon exist in these waters-Delegate A. J. Dimond has made clear that he will do all that he possibly can to rush action on Legislation now pending before Con- gress that will definitely prohibit foreign nationals from fishing in AL aska Territorial waters.
 In orddr that the bill which he has introduced in the House for this purpose may be taken up without delay after the regular session ot Congress convenes, the Delegate has requested Hon. $. O. Bland, Chair
 man of the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, tc arrange that hearings be had on the bill early in the session-preferably | in January-so that the proposed 1 Legislation may be undertaken by
 Congress in time to halt any pres lent preparations that are being
 made by the Japanese for the 1888 fishing season near the Alaska l Coast.
 Public sentiment in this country is definitely against the thought of
 our engaging in any war with Ja-
 pan, but there is very apparent growing reaction against Japan, re- sulting from her violation of accept | ed international rules of conduct a!
 exhibited in the present conquest O.

Ace in tue Hole Farm Pldn Is Proposed by Sen. McAdoo;
 Measure Has Good Features
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6--Ihe Me Adoo farm plan for handling crop surplusses is getting special atten- tion n several quarters where it is looked upon as an ace-in-t -tlle-hole in event the measure now being worked out in conference committee proves to be flop when it is tried.
 The McAdoo idea combines cer- tain phases of the domestic allot- nent plan with a device for putting American mills on competitive ba- sis with such cotton goods produc- CTS as the Japanese.
 McAdoo explained his plan to the Senate only few hours before the Pope -McGill bill was adopted and sent to conference with the House. It had not been considered by the Agriculture Committee and, as a result. the members were wary of taking such pig in a poke. But many disclosed an intention, to study it further.
 The McAdoo plan would apply to the usual basic crops, such as cotton, wheat, corn, tobacco, rice and hogs. DOMESTIC ALLOTMENT
 Here, roughly, is the Senator's explanation of how it would work with cotton:
 The Secretary of Agriculture esti- mates about what the crop for the year will be. He then computes what domestic demands for cotton will be. Suppose the domestic de- mand calls for about half the crop. Then each farmer would turn over half of his crop to a cooperative corporation with authority to mar ket the cotton abroad for what it could get. The other half would be sold on the domestic market with out competition McAdoo incorpor- ated in his bill machinery fixing cost-of- production price for the domestic portion of the crop. That brought opposition, of which more later.
 But the trick in his bill that pleas ed several Senators was this:
 Instead of dumping the surplus raw cotton on the world market at any price it would bring, McAdoo suggested selling part of the Amer ican millers at special low price so they could make cloth cheap enough to compete with Japanese textiles. That idea immediately at- tracted New England members, who would like to see their mills get back into the world trade.
 Of course, goods made with the cheap cotton could not be sold in the United States.
 McAdoo quoted a Southern mil Ter as predicting that if American millers had price advantage of 5 cents pound over foreign mills they could win back a lot of for eign trade.

Courtesy Behind Accidents

body will be killed.
Whlle the folly of high speed pro-
vldes the main theme of the booklet
there is a secondary theme which runs
consistently through the issue. 1t is
the need for courtesy on the highway.
AFTER analysing reports of 10000
fatalities and 1,221,O30 injuries in
traffic accidents last year, the COM
panys statisticians point to those in
teresting and little known facts about
accidents:
Exceeding the speed limit was re-
sponsib!e for 81 per cent of the deaths
and IS per cent of the injuries.
More than 81 per cent of drivers in
volved in fatal accidents were male
and less than six per cent female 1T
does not necessarily follow that wo-
men are safer drivers than men, it is
pointed out, because adequate data on
the relative exposure are lacking.
Ninety-seven per cent of drivers in
vOlved in fatal accidents had had one
or more years driving experience.
More than Is per cent of all fatal
accidents occurred when the road sur
face was dry. Eighty-three per cent
weather
More persons were killed on Sunday
than on any other day. The heaviest
injury toll came on Saturday. More
persons were killed between seven and
eight o'clock in the evening than at
any other time.
Fatalities increased last year in
every age group except that from five
to fourteen years of age.
In the last fifteen years, Al ,912 per-
sons have been killed in the u S. by
automobiles. This is almost double
the number of American soldiers kill
ed in action or died of wounds in all
the wars this country has engaged in
since its birth.
The insurance company will distri-
butte two million copies of the booklet
this year in the interest of street and
highway safety Single copies or
quantities may be obtained gratis by

That Explains 10000 Road
Deaths in 1887, death

14ortford, Conn, Feb. 19-(SpeciaD

o,,titIed Death Begins at 40' just is
,..,eA hv the Travellers Insurance Com
aany. The booklet presents a COM
,late analysis of last years traffic ac-
lidcnts. based on official figures from
the 4S states.
There is no intention in the booklet,
occording to the editors, to advocate
40 miles an hour or any other fixed
snned as a top limit. To quote:
" there are times, as in heavy traf-
fc or heavy fog, when 80 miles an
to,,r is suicidal other times when so
Niles an hour seems reasonable. Every
driver should know, however, that if
no does have an accident it is more
I;l,olv to mean death if he is going
fast
MANY of the features of the booklet
have been prepared especially to show
what happens in the higher brackets
Of speed. 1t is pointed out, for in
stance. that car is four times harder

- 25. and nine times harder to stop
at IS miles an hour than at 25. A
new word, durability" has been
coined to express another speed fac

booklet shows, decreases rapidly as his
speed increases. Thus, he can make
only one-fourth as sharp tourn at so
miles an hour as he could make at
% and only oneninth as sharp a turn
at rs as at %.
Another set of figures shows that if
YOU have an accident while driving
under 20 miles an hour there is only

be killed but if your accident comes

will be provided wheat growers.
Under the Agricultural Conserva-
ton program, North Carolina's flue-
cured tobacco allotment for 1888 will
be $4,000 to $4,000 acres, while the
cotton allotment is 902,525, acres.
One of the provisions OF the new
farm legislation calls for the estab-
lishment of marketing quotas on the
five basic crops if supplies reach top
heavy levels. After the Secretary of
Agriculture announces that quotas
will be clamped on a particular crop,
growers of that commodity will be
given a chance to express their ap-
prevail or disapproval in referendum.
If more than one-third of the farm
ers vote against the quota, it will not
be effective.

called Should the growers vote iaVcf-

Because of the bl":e cotton crol

building practices.
Included in the new Act are pro-
visions designed to control s,rpluses
of tobacco, cotton, wheat, rice, and
corn. Through the control of bumper
crops, it is expected that farm income
will t,e improved, Floyd said.
In addition, the new Act intends TO
protect the consumer as well as the
farmer. BY storing away surplus
wheat and then releasing it when
necessary, a fairly constant level viii

mined after Oct a;!ei study had been
made Of The 81 pply or hand and the
amount of the crop which farmers
might produce ~ 1898 to bring rea-
sonable prices.
For instance, afrer taking a lock at
the large crop Of fluc-cured totacco
in 1897 which res".t4 in an unusual
ly heavy carry-over, it was decided
that growers could not plant more
than $4,000 to $4,000 acres in North
Carolina this year if they wished to
keep market prices up Thus the al
lotment was set between those figures
The marketing quota becomes effec-
tive if the Secretary sees that the al
lotment will be exceeded, Floyd ex-
palined.
North Cardinals quota for flu-cured
leaf will be divided up among tobacco
producing counties, then apportionel
to communities, and finally down to
individual farms.
Marketing in excess of the quota es-
tablished becomes subject to penalty
Supplies withheld under the quotas
may be released under certain con-
ditions to meet any need that might
develop.
Floyd said the Act will he admin
istered locally as were the other pro-
grams in the past.

Question: How can I get rid Of
small worms in my tobacco plant
beds?
Answer: These small worms often
cause severe damage KY uprooting
the young plants, but they can be
easily controlled with napthalene
flakes applied at the rate of one and
one-half pounds to each 100 square
wards of bed One to three applicatio as
may be necessary and these should
be made one week apart. If the treat
ment is made just before strong
wind, it should be repeated at once
as the wind will blow the napthalene
gas out of the bed as fast as it is
formed. Do not confuse the small
worm with the adult black flies and
midges that swarm under the canvas.
These insects cause no damage to the
tobacco plants, but are often blamed
for flea-beetle and small worm dam

Question: What are the primary
factors to consider in selecting hatch
ing eggs?
Answer: The most important thing
is to see that the eggs are produced
by healthy birds, free from disease
and parasites. Then select only those
eggs that are true to type, of proper
shape and size, and have good shell
texture The collection and storage
of Matching eggs should be consider
ed. Collections should be made several
times a day and the eggs stored in a
room that is fairly humid with ten
perature of about SO degrees. While
in storage the eggs should be turned
daily. If the eggs are carefully in
spected and handled and the incuba'
tor properly operated the percent Of
hatch will more than pay for the ex
ira trouble.

mated. Sometimes a thorough
cleaning of them is all that is

the proper vitaminS, that is, Suf-
ficient lime and other ingredi-
ents necessary for hard, firm

It is quite true that If mother
dogs are fed improperly during
the whelping period, it will have
a tendency to affect the milk
teeth in puppies. Sometimes the
milk teeth in a puppy do not
fall out at the proper time and,
therefore, obstruct the correct
growth of the permanent ones.
Your veterinarian will tell you
when this is true and. if neces-
Sary, will pull them for you. AS
Will Rogers once remarked, "He
is not only a doctor, but a den

When your dogs bad breath
is caused by digestive ailments,
he can be helped usually by a
high colonic irrigation or the
proper laxative.
Sometimes it is wise to
sweeten the stomach with the
proper dosages of lime water or
activated charcoal. Milk of mag
nesia is often helpful because it
is easily administered in the
dogs milk.
In many cases, worms are def
initely to blame for your dogs
toxic condition. I do not believe
however, in administering worm
medicines which are often harm
full to the intestinal tract, if
worms are not actually present,
Often a microscopic examination
