Schmidt, Manager, Muni te law does not ut a lack of standing of the fundamentals of game and fish conservation explains ot the complaints against the excellent fish laws passed by the fifty-third general assembly. When the state garni* farm at Auburn was dispensed with, during Governor Dunnes administration, constructive game conservation received a setback from which it is just beginning to recover. From that day until the passage* of our nationally famous Game and Fish Codes of 1923, insofar as the records show, not one cent of the revenue derived from the sale of hunting licenses was expended for propagation or distribution of game or game birds. During the biennial period, July 1, 1921, to June 30, 1923, the receipts of the Division of Game and Fish amounted to $481,638.83. Of this revenue $70,139.81 was the total contribution of the entire fishing industry. According to the most' accurate estimate that could be made, approximately $275,000 was spenjt in the interests of the fisherman of the state, while only $150,000 was expended for the hunters. Realizing that the supply of game and fish must be maintained and if possible increased, the House Committee on Fish and Game incorporated in the Fish Code a provision requiring every person over tl.e age of twentyone to procure a license before fishing with a pole and line. After careful investigation by the Committee and the Organized Sportsmen, who were solidly behind this measure, it wa; decided that a fee of fifty ccnts woul< bring in sufficient revenue to permit After dinner the eue, t» ' (;h(u,k s L pulsb c Minneapolis ered at the Thompson home, where a few hours were spent in visiting, music and the taking of pictures^ A four course chicken dinner was ; served at the McHenry House, to I which twenty-eight immediate relatives were seated.

All persons indebted to said Estate are requested to make immediate payment to the undersigned. Dated this 6th dajr of October, A. D. 1924. 18-St Joseph' N. Miller, Executor. It's Time to Talk Business in all the streams, lakes and ponds of the state. With the fishermen now paying their own way, the revenue from hunting licenses is no longer diverted to the support of fishing, but is used as it should be, in stocking all suitable covers in the state with game and game birds. We sportsmen are indeed fortunate in having for our Chief Game and Fish Warden a man like Bill Stratton to handle these funds. Practical common sense, combined with an intimate j knowledge of hunting and fishing, and! up to th* minute conservation make' his services invaluable to all of us ; The reco; 1 he has made in the past I year is indeed remarkable. Ninety: cars, van 'ng from ten thousand adult; fish to ono hundred thousand finger- j lings pe ar, have been distributed1 in the st. ams and lakes i f the state. More tht.a fifty thousand eggs and adult garre birds have also been sent to sportsmen and conservationists fori hatching :.nd liberation. I Surely ;t would be hard to find atiy! fisherman in the state who, knowing j these fact ^ would want to return to' the days of no license, a rapidly diminishing supply of fish, and financial dependen> e upon the hunter. No sportsman, worthy of the name, ever failed to stand squarely on his own feet, and so I have found, with but few exceptions, a rapidly growing respect for the "square deal" Game and Fish Codes of 1923. Mr. Stenger had charge of the meeting Monday night. Two more fellows have decided that scouting is not a waste of time and have join -1 our ranks. They are Leo Herbes and Herman Steffes. With Air. Koerner as scout master, the Scouts may even have a band before the y ar is over. We surely have enough talent in our troop. Our nec kerchiefs have arrived. Now the fellov s will look like real scouts when they get dressed in uniform They are royal blue with a gold slide. The names of our patrols are the Eagle, the Bobwhite and the Owl The third patrol, which was not active last winter, has not yet selected a name. There are eight boys in each patrol. On account of his extra work with athletics, Mr. Stringer has resigned as scout master. In his place we have Mr. Koerner, a new teacher at the high school. Mr. Koerner was introduced to those boys who did not know him at the meeting Monday night and by the fine talk he gave the boys were convinced that,he is all that a good scout master should be. /EXECUTOR'S NOTICE Alford H.

Smith Bros. §B • . . ly If you are going to need a Manure Spreader this Fall, we want you ' to stop at our place of business and examine the "Litchfield Spreader." : ;This machine is built especially for us. We are very proud of this ;;tnachine and think you will agree with us, after you have looked it over, that it is the best manure spreader buy ou the market. By comparing; our price of a spreader today with that of other farm machinery, you wiill find that it is very reasonable and there is no reason, whatever, for any decline in the near future. If you buy a spreader now, we feel certain it will pay for itself within eighteen months and probably within a year. We still swear by the "Litchfield Spreader," the machine with the No Choke Box--Bull Dog Cylinder--Roller in and out of gear system, Cantilever Feed, Main Bearing packed with waste. This machine is built for us hv the Litchfield Mfg. Co., Waterloo, Iowa, and it is especially designed to suit conditions in this territory. For twenty years The Litchfield Mfg. Co. has concentrated its efforts on building: spreaders. This concentration on one big problem has developed many new and valuable features, protected bypatents and has resulted in Litchfield leadership in the spreader field. *, Don't buy an experiment an untried machine at any price. more in the long run than a Standard Machine of proven quality. We h ive only mentioned n few of the mnnv things that make the "Litchfield Spreader" a superior machine. L\ter on we will tell you more. Come in and lei us show you the machine and it thoroughly.
