TRAFFIC Law
HANDBOOK OUT
Revised Edition of Traffic
Rules is Now Ready for
Driving Public.

The state highway department an
nounced this week that it has printed
a revised edition of 100000 copies of
the Minnesota traffic laws, for free
distribution in the cause of greater
traffic safety.
The booklets, pocket-size, will be
distributed to the schools through the
department of education, to local safety
groups by the Minnesota Safety coun-
Gil, and to local officials and individual
motorists, upon request, by the depart
ment of highways.
There was little change in the uni
form traffic act by the last legislature
except in the provision which made
the revocation of a drivers license
mandatory upon conviction for drunken
driving.
The new booklets, however, in addi-
ton to the state traffic regulations,
contain the provisions of present state
laws governing unauthorized use of a
motor vehicle, crimes against public
health and safety, regulations govern
ing the scattering of refuse along the
highway, causing injury to or obstruct-
ing or damaging a highway, and the
laws regulating the use or sale Of
fireworks.

SEED, NOT FOOD
First Wild Rice Sent From
State in 1905.

During the past month large quanti-
ties of wild rice have been shipped
from northern Minnesota to eastern
and southern destinations, where this
local cereal will be sold for high
prices and prepared as delicacy. In
the 1905 also, wild rice was shipped
from the state, but it was sold for
seed, rather than for food During
that period, rice seems to have been
in considerable demand among sports
men, who planted it in lakes and
swamps in order to attract and provide
food for wild ducks and other Aquatic
birds.
Numerous items in Forest and
Stream" a sporting magazine of the
last century, refer to Minnesota's wild
rice trade Thomas P. Cantwen of
Brainerd, a frequent advertiser in its
columns, was known as the wild Rice
Man" In 1876 he advertised the pro-
duct at $3.50 a buShel. In the same
year Boston seed concern had wild
rice on sale for such as wish to plant
it." Several customers wrote to Can't
well to tell him of their success in
raising the cereal. 1t was sold also by
William Milliken of ST. Cloud, who
in the fall of 1878 arranged with a
half breed to secure him fifty bushels
If required"
Even as late as 1890, the attractions
of wild rice as food had not been ap-
preciated. In March of that year a
writer for Outing" another sporting
magazine, remarked upon the album
dance of wild rice in the northern
lakes, noting that Nowadays no one
eats it-unless a Squaw may OCCASION
ally gather mess-but it forms a
picnic for wild ducks and geese"
Files of Forest and Stream" and
of "Outing" are in the library of the
Minnesota Historical society.

BRIEFS

More than 100000 large mouth bass
f1ngerlings, the largest crop ever har-
vested were taken this fall from the

The total is more than so per cent
greater than in 1910, when the pre-
vious record of 234, 1000 was set.
Half the crop from the Walton
League ponds was planted in Henni-
pin county lakes as provided in the
agreement under which the ponds are
operated, and the rest of the finger
lings were distributed widely by the
bureau of fisheries.
The department of conservation re-
ceived reports this week of the kill
