JACKSONVILLE, FLA., Feb- 31
The Anti-Saloon league convention
ended last night with an address by
R ; v. P. A. Baker, superintendent of
the Ann .Saloon unanimously passed
indorsing the proposition to submit
a constitutional amendment provid
ing for statewide prohibition to a
v ote of the people of the state.
The legislature meets in April,
when the light will be intense, Anth
prohibitionists will organize to com
bat the work of the league. At pres
ent the agitation is somewhat quiet.
The meeting of the league being the
only sign of life lor the pa t tour
months. The campaign, however,
has been inaugerated and organize,
tion will take plac in all parts of the
state with a view ol influencing the
state’s fate, which is doubtful on
on the measure, while the lower
house is considered to favor a “dry”
state.
God speeed the consimnation!
Mast Protect The Birds.
We heartily concur with the Al
bany Herald in the sober reflection
that unless vigorous measures are
adopted in the very near futere to
pat ia end to the ruthless slaugh
ter of game, particularly doves and
Bob Whites, (common iy called the
3oethera quail), these birds will
soon be practically extinct in most
ot the counties of this section.
The open season in Georgia -for
qaail extends from the lit of -Nov.
ember £o the la of March, a period
of four arid a half months. Doves
maybe killed during six made half
moaths of the year.
It is iateresting to compare the
dates of the open and dosed sea
sons in this state with those to
whieh many of the other states of
toe Union have been brought by
conditions similar to those now oon
fronting Georgia. While quail
may be trapped ahd killed in (his
state during four and half months
of the winter season, Maine does
not allow them to be killed at ail,
this being deemed the only means
of preventing complete annihila
tion of the species in the state. In
Colorado quail may no*. again be
k illed till IG2G, and in Wisconsin
1 they aje protected til! 1915. Draa-
j tic laws similar to Mair«*s have re
] eeiitiy been enacted in Montana,
Utah and Wyoming.
Uonneciicut only allows the kill
ing of quail during two months,
from Oct. 1 to Dec. 1. In Idaho
the open season is but tfcirth days’
duration, while in Illinois it ex
tends from Nov, 10 to Dec 31. Kan
sas has an open season of a month
and Iowa a month and a half, The
open season in Massachusetts,New
York and Pennsylvania is one
month and a half in Michigan,?* ew
Ham pshire, Nebraska and North
Dakota, and two months in Minne
sota, Missouri, Oregon and Rhode
island. The Ohio season has been
reduced to twelve days, while Tex
as and Virginia, two southern
states, have been forced to reduce
their open seaeoaa to three months
In many of the states the limit
Is placed upon the uumber of birds
and individual may kill in a day,
twelve being the limit fixed in
many state laws.
What is, more, the game laws in
nearly all the states wheae it has
been found necessary to shorten
the season are strictly enforced
watchful gaice wardens in every
county being charged with that im
portant duty, Vioiators are prompt
ly apprehended and, as a rule, se
verely punished.
It is a duty which the legislature
owes to the people of the state—to
future generations whose rights
are clearly entitled to pref ent con
sideration—to amend the game
law of the state in time to pi event
those conditions here which, in
some other states, have made it
ne^jgsaty to ci03o the season for
qua*- and other game during
twelve months of the year.

A BAPTIST ELDER
Restored to Health by Vino!
‘1 was ran down and weak from in
digestion and general debility, also suf
fered from vertigo. ! saw a ccd liver
preparation called Vinol advertised an t
decided to give It a trial, and the re
sults were most gratifying. After tak •
ing two Dottles I regained : my
strength and am now feeling unusually
well.” Henry Cunningham, Elder Bap
tist Church, Kingston, N. C.
Vinol Is not a patent medicine—but a
preparation composed of the medicinal
elements of cods’ livers, combined with
a tonic Iron and wine. Vinol creates
a hearty appetite, tones up the organs
of digestion and makes rich, red blood.
In this natural manner, Vinol creates
strength for the run-down, over
worked and debilitated, and for deli
cate children and old people. For
chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis
Vinol is unexcelled.
All such persons in this vicinity are
asked to try Vinol on our offer to re
fund their money If it falls to give sat
isfaction.

are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren tend. Study
your fioiL Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results will surprise yon.
See what Mr. W. C. Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
“I planted about 30 acres of some ’gray sandy land’ that had been in
cultivation for over 20 years, and oaed 300 pounds of Virginia-Csro-
Una Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather 30 balet from
the 30 acreS." This is why we say it is the right kind. We have
hundreds of letters like this, and even stronger, in praise of Virginia*
Carolina Fertilizer for cotton.
