The paper is edited by Carlos Avery, executive agent, who in his foreword says that among the powers and duties of the com- mission, as enumerated in the satute, is “the collection and defusion of such statistics and information as shall be germane to the purposes of the act.” This is the authority for the es- tablishment of the bulletin, “which it is hoped to make of service in pro- moting the other and more import- ant functions of this department of the state government, the propaga- tion and preservation of such vari- eties of game and fish as it shall deem to be of public value, and the carry- ing into effect such laws as may from time to time be enacted for the pur- pose of conserving the game and fish and other wild life of the state. “It will endeavor to promulgate reliable information in regard to the game and fish of the state, to give & synopsis of the work of the depart- ment, and aid other agencies that may be interested in wild life pro- tection.” The bulletin is ranged, newsy and contains many items of interest for sportsmen and others who appreciate the adequate protection of our game. “Mistakes” of the Fathers. With what a sense of shame and humiliation must the militarists look upon the founders of this govern- ment, when they view the three - thousand-mile houndary line be- tween the United States and Canada. Not a fort along the whole line; not a battleship on the Great Lakes; not knowing what moment the Canadians may rush in upon us. And what a stimulus to business it would have been, had the frontier, like that be- tween France and Germany, been fortified. We could have spent bil- lions of dollars on forts and battle- ships and employed hundreds of thou- sands of men. All these blessings are denied us simply because the Fathers of the Republic cravely agreed with the British to leave the intérnational boundary unfortified. — The Publie.

Tavenner) 1 sat recently in the house of rep- resentatives and heard the Hon. Au- gustus Gardner, of Massachusetts, make the statement upon his respon- sibility as a member of the American congress that: “If war were to break out today, it would be found that our coast de- fenses have not sufficient ammuni- tion for an hour’s fight!” P ‘Whether or not Mr. Gardner’s statement is correct, I cannot say, because I do not know; but this I do know, that we do not have the ammunition and armament that we have paid for and should have in re- turn for the countless millions of dollars of the American people’s money that have been expended from the public treasury. T mean to say that those army and navy officers who do the purchasing of war munitions and who are paid a salary by the people and are trust- ed by the people to see that the gov- ernment receives a dollar’s worth of material for every dollar expended, have permitted a ring of ammunition manufacturers to outrageously over- charge Uncle Sam for armor, guns and munitions in general. For instance, the war department in 1913 purchased seven thousand 4.7-inch shrapnel from the ammuni- tion ring, paying $25.26 each there- for. At the same time precisely the same shrapnel was being manufac- tured in the government-owned Frankford arsenal for $15.45," all overhead charges included. Mr. Average Citizen, are you will- ing that the public officials at the war department, who are spending your money should pay $25.26 for an article that they could have manu- factured in government plants for $16.452 This instance is not the exception; it is the rule. The army and navy officers in 20 years have purchased $175,000,000 forth of armor, arma- ment and munitions from four firms which have a monopoly in this coun- try on the manufacture of such sup- plies and have paid this grasping war trust from 20 to 60 per cent more than the same articles could have been manufactured for in gov- ernment plants. As a result of frequently repeated statements similar to that made by Mr. Garduer, the average citizen is at last beginning to ask: “What be- comes of the $250,000,000 that is being spent annually on our army and navy? Who, pray, is getting the money?” And it is time the people are be- ginning to show anxiety, because their money has been squandered like water, and unless Mr. Average Citizen wakes up and removes the wool from his eyes it is going to con- tinué to be squandered. The American people have never been let into the secret of who the profit makers are in the traffic of war and preparations for war in this OO0 many people 4 look and act and feel older than they should.

L will go further and ven- ture the assertion that not 30 mem- bers of congress know the identity of the select fing of patriots for profit into whose pockets the millions :of the masses are pouring, which 'gentle- men have a water-tight monopoly in this country on the traffic in war trading and who have drawn down every penny of $50,000,000 in exces- sive and extortionate profits from the government by ‘direct virtue of their influential friends in the army, the navy, and in congress. Lest any gentlemen in high places should re- sent the implication of being friends of the war trust, I hasten at the out- set to concede their contentions that they are patriots, yes, all ‘of them. Congress can investigate the war trust until it is black in the face, and-| it will get nowhere. The secretary. of war can try as he will to get some one to underbid the either in this country or.abroad, and armor ring, he will not be able to escape the net; he has tried and has not been able to escape it. Armor, armament and ammunition contractors are not .big enough fools to cut each other’s throats. Their business is to supply for a gigantic profit the wherewithal for the people of the earth to enjoy a monopoly of throat cutting and the pulling of limb from-limb. As for themselves, they do not indulge in price-cutting warfare. Their game is purely pro- fit making. They start the ball roll- ing by making nations distrustful of one another, and then in inducing them. to overprepare for war. Does anyone doubt that if the European nations had not been overprepared for war they would have been so willing to have entered into it? Join the Back Yard Farmers. “An hour's work every day in the back yard will serve substantially to reduce the high cost of living." says C. L. Smith of Portland. Ore.. agri- culturist for a railroad company. “The profit that can be made from the back end of an ordinary city lot is hard to realize. It Is possible to grow not only all the fresh vegetables needed for the ordinary family, but to produce enough small fruits and vegetables to supply them through the greater part of the winter.” A swiveled clamp to hold a funnel on a hottle and leave one hand free when liquids are being poured has been patented by a California in- ventor. F KDNEYS T BAD TAKE SALTS BSays Backache is a sign. you have been eating too much meat, which forms uric acid. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it gen- erally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority, Meat forms uric acid- which overworks the kidneys in- their eflort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve Your bowels; re- moving all the body’s urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, izzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rhenmatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels ofen get sore, water sealds and you are obliged to scek relief two or three times during the night: Either consult a good, relinble phy: cian at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few ‘days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been uged for gemerations- to clean ‘and. stimulate :sluggish- kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine 8o it no Jonger irritates,-thus ending bladder. weakness, Jad Salts is a life saver for reg.lar- meat eaters.

A good deal of loss of butter fat has been occasioned by the fact that cream separators often are run at too low a speed. The manufacturers have deter- mined at what speed the machine will run at highest efficiency, and this is _ |,ordmnarily marked on the crank. Most farmers, however, merely ‘estimatc the speed without timing themselves, and according to officlal observations they usually turn too slowly and lose from 2 .| to 50 -per cent of the butter fat. A speed indicator similar to the ones in use on automobiles is now being used on-cream separators, so that the proper speed may always be kept and the ma- chine efficient.—American Agricultur- | 1st.
