DUCK SHOOTING '4t TO BEGIN THIS
 YEAR AT DAWN
Sunrise Replaces ! O'Clock RuIe-Limif on Geese
 Is Gut 10 Three

Legal duck shooting will begin this year at sunrise instead of at ' o'clock as Tn former years, Execu- tive Director Frank Dufresne of the Alaska Game Commission an- nounced today after receiving from Washington the migratory water fowl regulations for l940.
 If the 2 o'clock rule had been continued in force this year, shoot ing would have started at o'clock by the new Juneau time, as regl- lations are based on 135th meridian time.
 As it is, sunrise on october I, the opening day of the duck sea- son in Southeast Alaska is ' o. clock Juneau time, giving hunters an extra, hour of shooting under the new regulation. However, on November %, the last day of the season, sunrise will Ee at 9:15 O. clock Juneau time, whereas shoot ing could have begun at o'clock under the old rule.
 As in former years shooting will cease at o'clock in the after noon, which will be o'clock Ju neau time.
 6G-Day Season
 The duck season this year, as previously announced in The Elm pire, will be 60 days long instead of the usual 45. Duck population increases for five consecutive years have made this possible, Secretary of the Interior Harold l.. Ickes announced But, he added, it will again be necessary to invoke tight restrictions if future years are not as favorable"
 In Southeast Alaska and in parts of the Aleutian Islands, the Al aska Peninsula and Kodiak Island the season opens October and closes November 29. Elsewhere in the Territory the season is from September l to October 30.
 Jacksnipe may be shot from sun rise to sunset, instead of the legal days shooting closing at o'clock.
 Geese Limit Three
 The daily bag on geese, reduced last year from five to four, has this year been lowered to three. I he bag limit on ducks remains at 10 a day, on coots (scoters) 25 a day and on jacksnipes Is day. The number of ducks or geese that may be possessed at any time is limited to two days bag, but a new rule this year makes it pos sible for hunters to possess the legal limit for 20 days after the close of the season instead of 10 days.
 Shotguns must not be larger than 10 gauge. The three-shel limit is continued and it will still be illegal to take waterfowl by means of bait or the use of live decoys.
 All persons 16 years of age or older hunting migratory waterfowl are required to have with them an Federal Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp validated by the of the hunter on t h e stamp These stamps, commonly known as duck stamps, may be pur- chased at Post Offices at cost of $1.

There were no cattle in the

distance as she rode she could
see the scar of the timber slash
that Lee had censured.
Down there was Joey's claim,
and in front of the little gray ca
bin conspicuously tall young man
was just rising from the domestic
task of filling a coffee pot with
water at the reek. Already he
had seen her, and Joey from the

Joey?" She hesitated. AS far
back as she could remember, the
ranch house had been Lees
Ehome. Her father had treated
him like a son. "You know, Fa-
Their would always want you to
feel"
"Thanks, but I'm afraid that
wouldn't do. I'm not a part OF the
Circle v outfit now. I'll probably
camp somewhere in the hills
while I'm looking around"
She watched Joey as he hustled
about, in contrast to Lees easier
motions. Soon the pleasant smell
of cedar smoke was in the air,
the aroma of coffee, the kissing
of trout broiling over live Goals.
"Supper's ready" Lee called
cheerfully.
She had forgotten that it was
possible to eat with such appe-
tite. And she drank coffee from
a large tin cup with business
like handle and wondered, as Lee
HOLSTER neatly placed a flat
stone for a saucer, what her
aunt would say if she could see
her now, side by side in the dusk
with the wizened old prospector
and the young man who had been
one of her fathers "hands."
Lee was quiet, his clean pro-
file showing darkly against the
fire. Joey chartered contentedly.
"Lee was sayin'," Joey pratt
tied on, "that we oughta have
some woman to come help with
the work."
''Tll think about it, Joey-but
must 60 now. It's almost dark. :"
She jumped up with a quick shi-
yer. Night was coming on with a
keen tang in the air, and her silk
shirt was thin. Lee arose also and
disappeared into the cabin. A
moment later a mans coat was
laid around her shoulders.
Reckon you forget that this
climate is half mile up in the
air and gets cold awful sudden"
he drawled. "I'll ride back with

HELSINKI, Jan. 8. Finnish
troops have destroyed the Rus
sian army's 44th division, killing
many thousands" and capturing
more than 1000 prisoners in the
biggest victory of the war on the
frontier just east of Suomusalmi,
it was announced Monday.
The 44th division, presumably
of between $4,000 and $4,000 men,
was said to have fallen into the
same trap near the shores of
Lake Kianta which wiped out the
Red army's 163rd division in a
two-day Christmas week battle.
Rovaniemi dispatches said the
44th division was surrounded
near the town Of Raate, less than
a mile and half from the bor-
der at the eastern side of Lake
Kianta, by repetition of the
Finnish guerilla tactics which de-
stroyed the other division.

San Francisco Remembers
Stevenson With Monument

Tourists to San Francisco are
shown the little square at the edge
of Chinatown where Robert Louis
Stevenson sat and passed the time
of day with sailors, booted miners
and wanderers from everywhere,
back in the seventies.
Called Portsmouth square, it Is a
historic spot. Around it grew UP the
little village of Yerba Buena, later
called San Francisco. The towns
first hotel, theater and schoolhouse
faced the square. Capt. John Mont
gomery of the United States sloop-
of-war Portsmouth seized Yerba
Buena and raised the American flag
in the square on July 9, l846, during
the Mexican war. From his ship
the square got its name.
Stevenson was born in Edinburgh,
Scotland, on November 10, 1880
just SO years ago. A wanderer at
heart, the frail man, in his twen-
ties, landed on the East coast, then
came west by emigrant train.
Motley crowds Of people from all
quarters of the globe haunted the
square when Stevenson frequented
it. Among them the slender writer
found inspiration for his tales, as he
observed strange characters and
listened to their yarns. For hours
at a time he sat on bench in the
sun, hearing stories about China,
the South Seas and strange ports and
peoples. It is said that some of
these aroused in him romantic in
terest in Samoa, where later he Wis.,
tied and died, at lonely Apia.
Portsmouth square remembers
"R. L. S." with a monument, the
first ever erected to his memory. A
simple rectangular block Of Sierra
granite, it is surmounted by gold
en- galleon, the Hispaniola of "Treas-
ure Island" A quotation from the
writer's Christmas Sermon is in
scribed thereon: "To be honest, to
be kind ;"
The scene from Stevenson's day
hasn't changed much. Today there
are sailors on leave, adventures
and peoples of many races to be
found in the square. Chinese chill
dren romp on the grass, while their
elders doze in the sun. Latin and
Oriental boys with bootblack boxes
made the rounds-"Shine? Five
cents!"

SOIL CONSERVATION Is CURE
FOR RAGWEED EVIL

Hay-fever days are stealing closer,
and everywhere victims of the mall
ady are preparing to flee to piney
woods and salty seas-or to sit at
home and sneeze out the season once
more. But that doen't solve the
problem. Neither, says Botanist
Roger P. Wodehouse in the current
Rotarian Magazine, does direct at
tack on ragweed, chief producer Of
the irritating pollen, solve it.
But there is a cure for the rag
weed evil, he writes. 1t is soil con-
servaion. "Ragweed flouGishes in
vacant lots where ashes, rubbish,
earth, and stones have been dumped.
1t is the boon companion of tin cans,
discarded automobile tires, and old
bedsprings. You see it where sub
soil, earth, stones, and clay have
been dumped; it does not need rich
topsoil like rose gardens. You see it
along the sides of dirt roads where
the scraper was drawn over to shape
them in the springtime.
AOI0 1911 NAOlO Id6 WcOuS A0
asks. "There is none deep in the
city where naught but the human
animal can survive. Nor do you find
it in the gardens of the suburbs with
their nicely cut lawns, flower beds,
and shrubbery. If you go along the
park-f1anked highways, you still see
none. Even far out into the country
in the uncut woods or unbroken
prairie there is no ragweed."
The challenge, he believes, is obvi-
GUS. "Take over the vacant lots; re-
move the cans and rubbish and, in
cidentally, the weeds; level off the
ground, fertilize it. Plant grasses,
the overseers of the soil,' and con-
vert the plot into Fairgrounds for
the children who now risk their lives
on the streets and seriously interfere
with traffic. Or use the soil for SUBJ
sistence gardens. You'll get support
from your department of health.
Civic pride will grow faster than
ragweed, once it takes root"

MARYLAND POULTRY INDUSTRY
RANKS HIGH

The poultry industry of Maryland
has developed until it is now the
second most important single branch
of agriculture in the State, accord
ing to DR.. Morley A. JUL, head of
the poultry department at the Uni
versity of Maryland. The value of
poultry products produced in 1889,
he says, was approximately $15,000,-
900.
DR.. JUL points out that, at the
same time. Maryland is still deficit
producing state as far as egg pro-
duction is concerned, as approx
mately 100000 worth of eggs
and over $1,OOO,OOO worth of
poultry meat were brought into
Maryland from outside sources. He
states that considerable quantities
of both eggs and poultry meat are
shipped from Maryland to outside
markets.
In spite of the growth and develop
ment of the industry during recent
years, poultry producers in Mary
land suffer an estimated loss of 3d.
$4,000, DR.. JUL states. He names
ten unsatisfactory conditions as
being responsible for this loss: l..
Losses due to low hatchability Of
eggs incubated, $125,OO0; 2. Losses
due to chicken mortality to IL weeks,
$214,2OO; 8. Losses due to growing
and laying stock mortality, $751;
500; 4. Losses due to low hatch
ability of turkey eggs, $57,50O; s..
Losses due to turkey mortality,
$146,800; 6. Losses due tn depre-
ciated value of market poultry,
$525,O00; z. Losses through inefi-
Gent utilization of feed, 100000;
8. Losses due to low egg produc-
ton, $750,000; 8. Losses due to
deprecated value of market eggs,
$42O,0OO; 10. Losses due to low fer
tility, $4,000.
In addition to these annual losses
suffered by poultry producers, DR..
JUL says that there are over $780,
900 worth of Matching eggs and baby
chicks brought into the State every
year from outside sources.
