There are other equally significant, but how about ¢ Crook in South Dakota? We ask him Mrs. Mae Cady was elected town mar shal at Camp Crook, at the most recent election, and, true to her womanly in- stincts, she started at once to clean house, The other day she caught a bootlegger a real, saucy bootlegger, too—and imme- diately yelped for help. What did chiv- alry do? Nothing at all but lean against awning posts and hand Marshal Mae a lot from the call a big stockman plough boost it ke th 50,000 fa sed Greeleyism. S s as governor of his state, as instances np lush whicl railway wends wheat land there, good berry land, excellent and great range for cattle, and what territory isn't so good is still good enough the reindeer that subsist on moss, And, mind you, it is a mistake to assume that this north country is all snow and ice and smelly fish and gold diggings. It isn’t. It is quite nor mal and has summers of fine growing weather and the air is fresh, clean and balmy. The Alaska boosters know of son why their country cannot be the food storehouse of the world—they modestly do not. It now spends a million a year for imported food, but it can, if the plough- boys will only raise that amount itself and, in addition, it capable of supplying enough canned vegetables, ber ries, milk, fish and fresh and canned meat to appease the demands of a large mar- ket. And note, too, that the hungry Ori- ent is 1,500 miles nearer Alaska than it is other Pacific ports that now have its trade. Come on up! It’s a cinch Thus the Alaska boosters boost. It all sounds much like “join the navy and see the world” and “be a marine and get an education,” but what they say may have as much or more basis in fact, even at that. Anyway, they want 50,000 farmers to know that there is gold there other than that of the pick and pan and cradle, and it is waiting for diggers. Making His Own Job Big NCE in a blue moon folks are treated to the novelty of a man who is satis- fied with his own job. There is one such in the public eye now. His name is Herbert Hoover and his job is that of secretary of commerce. game refuges and education. Mr. Hoover has just turned down a job, In 1928 there were 6,452 buck deer that of secretary of agriculture, which in | killed in the state legally, 500 black bears rank and prestige and all that, is several 5,000 wild turkeys, and—think of it degrees higher than his own. bull elk.

This matter of rank determines not only where he sits at the cabinet council table, but his own and his wife’s position at social functions and all that. To many officials; it is all-important. But not with Hoover. He went into the cabinet on the promise that he would have free reign to make his own job big. He took what was regarded as a slow-going, almost ossified department, and in a few months had it working like a big factory at full speed. Business suddenly came to respect it, and to rely upon it. What the department of commerce could not do by authority of law it undertook to do’ by conference and agreement with the indus- tries involved. Generally it succeeded. It is no surprise, then, that the presi- dent should be asking this man who dis covered how to cut thru governmental red tape to put new life into other govern- mental departments. The wonder to official Washington is that Hoover doesn’t accept promotion, with the added honors and prestige it says and Stream.” More than this, the total kill of game in the state taken apart from all recrea- tional elements, now aggregates from 5,500 to 7,000 tons a year and the fur taken is valued at $2,500,000. Still further, hem is a‘’state of 45,000 square miles and with a population of 9,000,000 people, that was practically desolate of game 20 years ago, but is now furnishing annual recreation for 600,000 sportsmen, or about one-tenth of the to- tal number in the whole United States. It is one of the best, if not the very best, game states in the Union. Why? Common sense, first. It has 75,000 acres of game refuges and 1,100,- 000 acres of public hunting grounds, the former located, for stocking purposes, within the latter, and carefully respected. That's another reason. Another is that those who go afield in Pennsylvania have been. taught to be sportsmen rather than mere hunters, to respect the laws of man and nature rath- er than be wanton killers.
