A PARADISE FOR HUNTERS OR
FOR IAPGp

Have you seen the hundreds Of
deer that are jumping in and out
of farmers haysheds and barns this
winter? If SO you know that there
will still be large number of the
animals with us next spring-fat
ones too. With no efficient means of
protecting their produce. farmers
feed hundreds of deer every year
on hay meadows, gardens and win
ter stacks. CAS- many as 20 have
been counted on small alfalfa
fields.) They have complained SO
little about this imposition that
town 'sportsmen" do not seem to
realize the condition. But farmers
know that it is very unpatriotic to
feed deer now. Meat, milk, butter
are so scarce that boys write home
from camps that they get little or
none of these products. Shall Lin
coin county farmers feed an army
of deer to please few sportsmen
or an army of soldiers to lick Japs
and Germans?
/ The choice must be made now.
Every deer herd fed hay from now
on means less food for the boys VINO
are giving their lives to bring us
victory. This is no time to get SEN
timental about the dear little
beasties who do look SO cute jump
ing out of hay sheds" It will take
every Whisp of hay farmers can
grow and store to meet the Lin
coin county quota next year.
Deer have increased during the
past few years. Weakened animals
on depleted ranges fall an easy
prey to coyotes, who kill far more
than hunters do. 1t is just possible
that whoever introduced the new
hunt bill in the legislature knew
as much about conditions as d.
some sportsmen, Real efforts should
be made to solve the deer problem
Coyotes might be hunted by public
spirited citizens who are good shots
This would make room for more hu
man hunters, although with gas
: .:-n r~d amraEnitioo clror.c.rnr thc-i
seems little danger of a sportsmel
invasion But whatever else is dom
some plan should be devised to re
: move semi-tame deer from farms
A grim food shortage is predict
ed for next year Shall our count,
feed milk, butter and meat to tn
soldiers, or shall we hand it over 4
the swarming deer-and help tn
Japs?

Many Bills Killed

board rationing is unnecessary. At
weeks end however, Stromnes'
had not appeared.
Other high spots of the legislative
week were:
The senate amended and passed
house bill which gained the unof-
fetal title of 'the bankers relief
act lowering the basis for assess
ment of bank capital from 30 TO ID
per cent of true value. The origi-
nal house bill set it at 7 per cent,
but after much wrangling the SEN
ate upped it to Is and the house
concurred in that figure and sent
the bill to the governor for his
approval.
One of the two major reorganiza-
ton bills-to provide for state
personnel Observation-Disclosures in
troduced in the senate, At week 5
end il was reported out without
recommendation by the reorgan-
ization committee and placed on
general file for debate.
Gov. Ford signed the bill calling
for repeal of the states so-called
Hitler law" which gave him pow
er to hire and fire state employees
at will Repeal Of the law had been
asked by Gov. Ford of two legis-
latures and it had previously been
asked for by his predecessor, Gov
Ayres.
The governor also signed bill
giving purchasers Of state lands un-
til Dec. 81, 1914 to pay delinquent
installments without penalty inter
est. Another measure signed by this
governor allows office holders Il
run for another office without Civ
ing up the post they hold.
The senate held scorching debate:
on bills to allow colleges to pur,
chase cadavers for anatomical study
and to liberalize the state law in re
gard to the practice of chiropractic
The cadavcr bill, similar to on,
passed by both houses but vetoed
by the governor last session, wa
advanced to third reading in tn,
senate. One of the chiropraetor bill
was killed on the ground it would
allow chiropractors to practice sur

BURROUGHS AND
RATIONING

Though OPA seems little
fuzzy about whether a soldier on
leave may get extra rations of
sugar and coffee. the army isn't.
So make your homecoming soldier
stick to his guns.
II he's home for more than
seven days he can report to his
local ration board with a copy OF
his order and get special coupons
for a half-pound of sugar a week.
And the same goes for coffee if
he's home for five weeks.
What will be done about canned
goods and meat when they're ra-
toned hasn't yet been determined.
But it's pretty certain that if he's
home for any length Of time he
won't be forced TO sponge on the
family.

warns wPB. Be sure TO look for
the make when you're buying a
new heater and check the ap-
pliance carefully Tor loose con-
neetions and poor wiring jobs
Cheap versions are apt to blow
out fuses and start fires.
Glamour Advertising
II the war lasts long enough for
clothes rationing to become neees-
sary there may be some kind OF
advertising regulations set forth
BY the WPB along the lines of
those issued in Australia. There,
advertising copy must stick to
simple description of clothes. A
copywriter isn't allowed to make
your mouth water with glamor-
dripping descriptions Of spring
ensembles and --latest fashions. -
These descriptions are taboo be-
cause they create an incentive to
buy-and when rationing is in
full swing its not fair to tempt
the public. It just makes them
unhappy, says the Australian gov
| eminent.
Travel
And here again the United
/ States may take a cue from an
other country. Office of Defense
Transportation may start urging
travellers to take day coaches in
stead OF travelling by night. In
Argentina this is already being
suggested, the argument being
that train consisting of day
coaches can accommodate many
more passengers than a sleeper.
Rationing
How many cans of food you can
buy with AS ration points obvi-
ously depends on your tastes. II
you like foods for which there is
relatively small demand, you'll
probably get more cans than the
person who likes very popular
foods. That's because the more
popular the food, the higher the
point value will be.
One things fairly certain-the
first month of rationing is apt to
be very much tougher than the
ensuing months because OPA
doesn't mean to be caught short
of rationed foods at the end of
the first period.
Coffee Rationing
Though stamp No. 25 in your
/ coffee and sugar ration book will
be worth one pound of coffee for
period of six weeks instead of
| five-this doesn't mean that you
are always going to have to get
