From then on they show considerable annual vari- ation with distinct peaks in alter- nate years. The general upward trend of bounties for wolves and coyotes be- ginning in 1923 was interrupted only 1930, and reached an all-time peak of $100,000 in 1937, This clearly reflects’ the increasing menace to wild life by these predatory animals, largely due to lack of control of reindeer herding. | Hair seal bounties started not until | 1827 and show variations similar to the other bounties, reaching about $30,000 in 1933, 1935 and 1987. | For 'seven years, ' from' 1819 to 1926, operation of salmon hatcheries constituted the chief expenditure in the wild life field, reaching $50,000 in 1625. Discontinuation of - the hatcheries was ~ccompanied by larger expenditures for other fomms of wild life promotion and protece tien. Ineluded in these expeiiv..uses were also small items for' the pro- curing and transportation of beav- ér, elk and buffaio to ceria: gions. At the same time (1927-1932) some aid was given to fur farming. | Other sporadic expenditures include the stocking of cerfain island areas, especially in Prince William Sound, | with deer and goat in 1917-18, 1923, and 1925, also a study of “reindeer | parasites and diseases extending from 1529 to 1932.

You could amaze them by a simple demonstration of an automatic electric roaster. You would put the meat in a little metal box without fire any- where near it, turn a button, and go off to a movie. Hours later, you would take out a perfectly done roast. No Hindu magic can beat that. The average American kitchen is full of equipment that would be magic to primitive people. The electrie light itself is a major wonder, and the handsome porcelain sink, with its unlimited quantities of hot and cold water constantly on tap, is hardly less. Yet four-fifths of all the homes in this country are equipped with one or hoth of these facilities. Your mechanical refrigerator would fairly hypnotize a savage from the tropics. Imagine his astonishment at the magic box which is always cold inside, and even manu- factures little cubes of ice. How many house- holders really know how it works? Most of H Copyright 1938, Advertising ber 15 us haven’t the slightest idea. We take such ? things for granted, and would be very much 4 put out if our refrigerator did not give per- fect service. Kitchen magic has lifted fcm the modern housewife. Washday, for instance, is a lot different from what is used to be. Nearly all homes have washing ma- chines now, and almost half of them.are run by electricity. Many have el too. Ninety-eight percent of for electricity have electric irons. The newer ones are automatic, keeping the heat you want. Many other of your magi ‘pliances are labor savers and comfort makers. The ingenious coffte percolator, the tricky orange juicer and meat chopper, ‘the indis- pensable vacuum cleaner, and the handy automatic bread toaster. New helpful de- vices are put on the market every year. What causes all this? These things do not i just happen. The reason is simply that Amer- i ican industry is so constituted that it thrives on new inventions. And the dustry thrives on new inventions is that the American public quickly adopts anythi useful and desirable, if it is Only through advertising can new products readily be introduced to the public. Large demand is necessary before house- hold appliances can be produced at low cost, and consumers cannot demand something they do not know about. That is why adver- tising is so important to progress. ing is working for us now, bri magic to our homes and more happiness to our lives. Federation of Amerws JU N E A OWNED.
