D., Dec. 28, 1916 Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I notice in a local paper that sports. men have met to decide on revision ol the hunting laws. This is what hap- pens before every legislature and thai body has serenely passed whatever the sportsmen wanted. They now can com- pel the farmers to take care of and feed the prairie chickens just about as he does ‘his barnyard fowls. Then in threshing time the sportsmen come around with dogs and guns, harvesting the prairie chicken crop that the farm- ers have raised while they themselves are too busy with grain to think of hunting. Furthermore, lest some farmer should kill a chicken. that happens to be left after the dogs and hunting par- ties have been over the farm, he can be arrested, fined and the gun taken away from him for going over his own fields looking for jackrabbits. Of course, hunting laws are of minor importance compared to other sug- gested legislation. Still, I think legis- lators should not pass game laws to fit a very small class of citizens without recgard for those on whose land the game is to be found. In order (o preserve the prairie chicken these sportsmen always think ot cutting shorter the open season, es- pecially the late end of it.. But I think the chicken season may be four months with no less danger of eliminating the bird when those months be December, January, February and March. Let us hear from others about it. To my mind, a short open season before the chickens are full grown is foolish when the aim is to preserve the game, and an Injustice to the farmer because of the busy season at the time. THEODORE QUAM. Uncle Sam’s Crop Data Wrong (Continued from page 14) tual quotation cards in effect in the wheat districts. The govern- ment claims the farmer has been getting $1.50 to $1.60 for his spring “feed” wheat. are taken from ace wheat this year. This is an error and makes it look as though the farmer was getting unusually high prices when as a matter of fact this is not true as to spring wheat. POTATO CROP NOT® UP TO THE AVERAGE The yield per acre, average for the United States, on potatoes is reported at 79.6 bushels, against a 10-year aver- age of 97.5 bushels. Minnesota’'s pota- toes averaged 60 bushels to the acre, almost half the normal yield, which is 102 bushels per acre. North Dakota's potatoes averaged 93 bushels to the acre, the 10-year average being 96 bu- shels, so that in potatoes the state got a pretty good crop. South Dakota's crop was not much better than Minne~ sota’s, running 66 bushels to the acre, against a 10-year average of 86. Mon- tana had a bumper yield of 126 bu- shels per acre, the 10-year average for that state being 149 bushels per acre. The quality of North Dakota’s pota- ‘toes of 1916 are reported as being above average; those of Minnesota considerably below average and those of South Dakota also below average. Montana's was a good average potato yield in quality. Senate Springs a Trap (Continued from page 11) meeting that the present Ilegislature should submit to the people a draft of a constitution for their adoption or re- jection which will allow carrying ‘out of the League program and thus avoid the great expense of a special consti- tutional convention and not wait two years as would be necessary under a concurrent resolutjon introduced this day in the state senate by Senator Mc- Bride.” Unless shown what the sentiment of the people is, the senate, dominated by anti-League senators, will pass the McBride bill, as it is already framed up that way, and then put it up to the house to pass. The hold-over senators, who are still doing all they can to bloclk the League program, think that their plan will enable them to claim that they are trying to help the League pro- gram and give them excuse to oppose real, efficient and reasonably quick constitutional amendment, as favored by the League senators and represen- tatives. Write your senators and represen- tatives at once how you feel on the subject. Leader “Classified” Ads Pay.
