GAME CHIEF LISTS TENTATIVE DATES FOR N. D. HUNTING Deputy P. E. Colins Asks Sports- men to Use Their Privileges Sparingly « Tentative dates for the hunting of migratory waterfoul and upland game birds in North Dakota this fall, as contemplated by the state game and fish commission, were outlined before the Bismarck Kiwanis club Tuesday noon in a short talk by P. E. Collins, deputy state game and fish commis- sioner. é Simultaneously he issued a plea to sportsmen to use their hunting privi- Jeges as sparingly as possible, pointing out that drouth has followed other adverse circumstances to make the game conservation situation the most severe in history. “A happy medium” between con- servation and the sportsmanship of- tered by the sport of hunting is the ob- jective of the game department, Col- lins said, explaining that the depart- ment is eager to give the sportsman the pleasure “he is paying for,” yet éealous of the preservation of wild game life in the state. Collins said the state department 4s in favor of a closed season on all migratory waterfall, but not unless it is declared a closed season throughout, the United States. He said State Game and Fish Commissioner Thoralf Swenson already has wired President Roosevelt, requesting @ nation-wide closed season. Ducks Oct. 3-Nov. 10 In the event a nation-wide closed Season. is not ordered, the North Da- kota department tentatively plans to order the duck-hunting season for Qct. 3 to Nov. 10, with only five days ‘of shooting each week, Mondays and ‘Tuesdays to be rest days, as in’ the case of seasons for upland game birds. Collins listed other tentative hunt- ing dates as follows: Prairie chickens—noon of Sept. 22 to Oct. 1, both days inclusive, half- day's shooting, bag limit five birds. Ruffed grouse—noon, Sept. 28, to Oct, 1, both days inclusive, half-day’s shooting, in the counties of Bottineau, Rolette, Pembina and Cavalier, bag limit 5 birds. Ringneck pheasants—noon, Oct. 20, to Oct. 29, both days inclusive, first five days’ bag limit three cocks, last five days’ bag limit five birds, of which two may be hens, in the coun- ties of Richland, Ransom, Sargent, LaMoure and Dickey. (It is probable the first five days will be half-days and the last five days full days). 20 to Oct. 24, both days inclusive, in the counties of Kidder, McIntosh, Lo- gan, Emmons, Burleigh, Morton, Stark, Dunn, Cass, Barnes, Stutsman, Adams, Hettinger, Oliver, McLean, Grant and Mercer, bag limit 3 cocks. Partridges on Increase Collins said that it is not probable that there will be an open season on Hungarian partridges this year, but prophesied that, if the partridges continue to show their present in- crease North Dakota hunters will be shooting “huns” in the fall of 1935. ‘The deputy commissioner also urged sportsmen to build shelters for upland birds, particularly pheasants, wher- ever possible while hunting this fall and recommended that sportsmen’s units take steps to arrange for feed for the wild game in their localities. The federal government does not plan to furnish feed this year as it did last year, he warned. ~ Collins was introduced by Charles Goodwin, program chairman. James W. Guthrie, vice president of the Ki- wanis club, presided in the absence of President Walter Renden and W. J. McDonald led the group in singing. Thomas Tharalson of Bismarck was ie only guest at the luncheon meet- ing.

Old Age Pension ** ** PROVIDES 30 CENTS **# & * * Maximum Average Only $12 a Year Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 20.—(®)— North Dakota's old age pension law under its present provisions will give the state’s needy aged approximately 30 cents each per month, Commission- er of Agriculture and Labor John Hus- by revealed Tuesday. Under the pension law the commis- sioner of agriculture and labor admin- isters the act with the aid of board of county commissioners. ‘With $400,000 already allotted by 46 counties in the state, less than $18,000 |has been collected under the one- tenth mill levy to meet the’ demands of 3,200 aged whose applications have been approved. Amount ‘Pitifully Small? Two counties have not reported any applications, and five have return. ed incomplete applications. Husby said he expected more than $500,000 will have been allotted to the aged poor by the end of the year, with @ “pitifully small amount” on hand to supply the needs. “If we collected all that would be it would He recommended an increase to “at least one mill levy.” On the present basis, pensioners can expect to get only $4.50 per year, Husby said. Law Proves Farce “It's ridiculous,” he pointed out. “ridiculous to expect monthly war- rants in the sum of 30 cents to be sent out, in accordance with the law, to the pensioners. It would involve the state in cost of clerical aid, a three-cent, stamp on each letter carrying the warrant, and a discount on the war- rant when the pensioner sought to) cash his 30 cents worth.” Would Send Lamp Sum Some question the legality of pay- ing the pension in a lump sum, instead of in monthly payments, Husby said. He explained he planned to ob- tain an opinion from the attorney general as to whether he may pay the amounts in a lump sum. If he obtains a favorable opinion, Husby said he planned to send each of the pensioners a warrant “probab- ly about Christmas time—it won't be much—but it will help a little.” He also plans a “cut-off” date on the taking of applications by county auditors, and is contemplating October 15 as the time. Shortly thereafter, | he said, he planned to begin making the payments. He said he expected more than 4,- €00 will have made applications for the pension by the end of the year. The law, passed by the legislative session of 1933, contemplates a maxi- mum of $150 to each pensioner, p«r year. It also provides that any per- son 68 years of age or over may 4p- ply for the pension. Unsuperstitious Woodmen Fell Harlem’s Famous ‘Wishing Tree’ New York, Aug. 21.—(?)—Harlem’s famous “Wishing Tree,” in whose be- nign shade have sat many Negro act- ors—Bert Williams, Florence Mills, Ethel Waters and the rest—has fallen to the axe. Bill Robinson, Men came Monday and cut it down. Each stroke of their steel left a scar in many a superstitious and senti- mental heart. to Negro troupers. The tree meant much For years it had stood there at 131st Street and Seventh Avenue in front of the LaFayette theatre, a sturdy oak rooting in Harlem's soul. Once there was a negro actor who stood beneath its branches, rubbed its rough bark, and made a wish for work. Immediately he got a job. Paul Robeson stood there, wishing perhaps to become one of the greatest baritones of his race.

The supposed “suicide flight” of Frank Dorbandt, daring Arctic avia- tor, began to look Tuesday more like an airman’s expression of rage. Fears for his life were felt Sunday night when he lifted his big tri-mo- tored plane, carrying only a scant sup- ply of gasoline, from the Anchorage airport with the words, “you'll not see me again.” Some of his friends thought he might have set out on a dramatic quest for death to escape the pursuit of lawsuits. But their fears were largely dis- sipated when they learned the husky pilot had landed at another airport 50 miles away, spent the night and taken off the next day for an un- announced destination. He faced government fur smuggling charges and a complaint filed by a 19-year-old Seattle girl.

Altenburg, assistant coun- ty agent, said Tuesday in answer to @ question that has been puzzling some Burleigh county farmers. Referring to a bulletin of the ag- ricultural adjustment administration, the following rule, which applies to wheat, corn or hogs, not of the farm- ers own raising, is quoted: “Insofar as the products are for consumption by the farmers family, he is not liable, as the processing is not for market; insofar as the pro- ducts may be furnished to employees not in the immediate household, as part of wages, or may be sold to em. Ployees, he is liable for the tax, as the Processing is for market.” A second question asked was: Sup- pose that calves are born, after the aPpraisals have been made and con- tracts signed for the sale. Whose Property are the calves? “We have no definite ruling on the particular circumstance,” Altenburg said but pointed out that such situa- tions have been met in the past by paying the condemned price of four dollars a head for each calf born after the appraisal and brought to the ees point with the rest of the cattle.

Death Duel Between Spider, Snake Ends Baltimore, Aug. 21—(#)—An execu- tion by the society for the prevention of cruelty to animals put an end to the death duel of a tiny black spider and garter snake # thousand times its size in the basement of a Baltimore home. The conflict had raged for four days when a representative of the society, stopping “‘this display of cruel- ty,” snipped off the head of Egbert, as a neighbor dubbed the snake. At the time the spider, no bigger than the snake's eye, was nearing a com. Plete conquest of its foot-long natural enemy. Dismayed, the little spider, which had the snake securely enmeshed in its web, fled the scene of the killing and near noon Tuesday had been seen ‘Mukden, Manchukuo, Aug. 21.— I'd heard how nobody seemed to be able to recognize Manchukuo, ‘and there's been such @ lot of trouble about it, but I recognized it the minute I got into the hotel Sabath of Ilinois ” New Dean of House Washington, Aug. 21.—(#)—Repre- tative Adolph J, Sabath, (Dem.

Flaten replaces Roy Frazier who has been dismissed, while Frueh suc- ceeds C. O. Carlson, also discharged. Flaten has been in the employ of the highway department for about ten years, Plomasen said. At the same time, Plomasen an- nounced that M. A. Stanley of Kintyre has been named general foreman in| Emmons, Logan and McIntosh coun- ties. He replaces H. A. Shepard who was dismissed shortly after Plomasen became maintenance engineer under the new highway administration.

Vogel that cannot be broken. Piom. asen said steps will be taken to ob- tain possession of the car.
