HUGE GAME-PRESERVE,
British Attempt to Save; Animals
From Extermination,
The East Kootenay district of Brit
ish Columbia is to become a huge
‘game-preserve during the mnext 10
yedrs, according.to a proclamation
from the Lieutenant Governor and
dKxecutive Councilof British Colum
bia. This region is located 63 miles
north of the United States boundary
line, and its eastern limit is the Blk
River, which lies 15 miles west of
Adberta. It includes that section of
territory which has been suggested as
the Goat Mountain Park, and the to
tal area is approximately 450 square
miles, : In this great tract of country
there is to be an absolutely closed sea
£on for 10 years on mountain sheep,
mountain goats, mule deer, elk and
the other important wild animals
found in that locality.
At the present time, says Harper's
‘Weekly, the district under preserva
tion contains an abundance of game
of many varieties, although the elk
@and mule deer have been greatly
thinned out by visiting sportsmen. A
conservative estimate by guides, who
are familiar with the country, places
the number of white mountain goats
at about 1000 and mountain-sheep at
200 head. Along the upper ranges of
the mountainsg grizzly bears may be
tound, and very probably there are
50 or more in the East Kooctenay pre.
serve. L
Tie hopefulness to the hoe handle,
urges the American Cultivator.

A HOME-MADE REFRIGERATOR.
As very little ice was put up last
winter, the question how to keep but
ter, milk and other perishable articles
for the table is of vital importance,
and any new method or way of keep
ing things of this kind cool, receives
a ready attention by all housekeepers.
Below I will give you complete de
scription how to make a home-made
refrigerator that has been tried and
found to keep milk and butter about
~as well as a 5 smar&fi “m ¥
"‘iii'i saila CanaTth ont ;
thifig necessary to buy is two hinges
for the lid, !
Get a good solid tight box, a star
soap box will do, put a tight fitting
lid on it and fasten to the box with
hinges so it can be raised up when
desired. Now take a strip of felt or
some flexible cloth and tack on the
top edges of the box so the lid will
fit down against it perfectly tight.
This is to keep any insects from
crawling in the box under the lid.
The lid should be fastened down with
a hook, or you can lay a heavy weight
upon it.
Now whitewash the inside of the
box with lime; this is to kili any
wood taste anq make it perfectly san
itary. Now bury the box in the
ground on the shady side of the
housé€, allowing about two inches of
the top to remain above the ground.
Now get quite a large box and knock
off the top and sides, and set it over
the top burjed like a buggy top over
the seat There should be enough
space between the boxes so the lid
of the buried box can be swung up
without striking. Cut some sod and
lay on the top and up against the
sides of the large box angd your refrig
erator is ready for use.
If you wish you can make a door for
the large box which will make a
double protection.—3. I. Parker in the

EXPERIMENTING WITH POULTRY.
It is abso!utely necessary for every
farmer or poultryman to make experi
ments but not with the whole flock,
for two reasons; the experiment may
be a failure and the whole flock
would have to be sacrificed;” and sec.
ondly the 'experiment with ‘a whole
flock would take much longer time
than with just a few fowls. It is es
pecially unwise to' cross a large
flock and any experiments in cross
ing should be well considercd. Mis
takes or failures in experiments may
be made in a day and not rectified
in a year, so every precaution must
be taken and all dangers guarded
against. As a rule nearly all begin.
ners.are anxious to try their ideas
and theories and the result iz usually
failure or a loss of time and money,
if not the birds. Never subject the
whole flock to tests which may be
made with a few fowls. Too many
experiments are not the best thing in
the'poultry yard, anyway. Try to get
good ideas from experienced poultry
men—ideas which have been tried and
tested, and then run the poultry farm
along those lines. It must be taken
for granted that men who have been
successful in the poultry business are
good patterns to copy and if the be
ginner has new ideas of his own
which he ‘thinks will enlighten his
older and more experiencel fellowmen
he will do wisely to make a thorough
test on a few fowls before publish
ing the results.—Farmers' Home Jour.

STATE ASSEMBLY BUSY
Maximum Penalty for Bigamy
Made Twenty Years.
Appropriations for State Institutions Fa
vorably Acted Upon---Fertilizer
Bills Discussed.
Atlanta, Ga.—The senate officially
declared that the bigamist was a
much blacker criminal than existing
laws make him appear and increased
the maximum penalty for this crime
to twenty years. The minimum re
mains at two years, Under the pres
ent law the maximum punishment is
imprisonment for four years.
The senate voted down the bill to
increase the salaries of judges of the
court of appeals from $4,000 to $6,000,
The effort to have the senate recon
sider its former vote on the bigamy
bill called forth an earnest and elo
quent plea from Senator Burwell in
behalf of Georgia women and the
sanctity of the home.
The bill of Senator Rutherford, in
creasing the powers of the state bank
examiner and providing more strin
gent regulations for state banks, was
reported favorably by the committee
on banking and surrency, with some
amendments. The original bill re
quired the payment in full of capital
stock of all chartered banks, the
minimum capital allowed being $25,
000. An amendment was added by
the commitiee, which leaves this mat
ter within the discretion of the state
treasurer,
The committee on railroads reported
favorably the house bill allowing free
rides on street cars to policemen and
firemen, and, by unanimous. consent,
it was pased to second reading.
The senate passed the bill,
By Senators Price and McCurry, to
require assessment insurance compa
nies in this state to submit, upon the
notice of deaths of insured, or loss,
the number of parties composing the
division in which death occurred, and
to provide penalty. ¢
In the house, the employers’ liabil
ity bill was favorably acted upon by
the general judiciary committee and
the measure was reported by substi
;u,te with the recommendation ;;hage;ttg
0 _Dpass. S el s
after mdny vigorous arguments had
been made against the bill by counsel
for. railroads operating in Georgia and
after a vigorous attack upon the meas
ure by Hon. Joe Hill Hall, chairmin
of the committee,
The bill provides that in case the
employee has contributed to his own
injury he may recover damifzes, but
the amount of such recovery shall be
reduced in proportion to the degree
of his negligence.
The general judiciary committee
also agreed to report favorably the
following bills:
A bill to prohibit the publication in
periodicals or the sending over the
telegraph wires the name of any wom
an upon whom a criminal assault was
committed or attempted.
The railroad committee of the house
voted to kill the bill requiring all
railroads in this state to stop all pas
senger trains at all county seats,
They also voted down a bill to pro
vide for the examinatioh of firemen
and other railway employees by a
board of examiners.
Several representatives of fertilizer
manufacturers and other persons ap
peared before the house committee on
general agriculture to oppose any
change in the present law affecting
the marking, branding and sale of
commercial fertilizers,
Those opposing the bills introduced
by Mr. McMichael of Marion and Mr.
Edwards of Walton to change exist
ing laws, were Harry C., Fisher of
Atlanta; Harry Hodgson of Athens,
Mayor Robert F. Maddox of Atlanta
and others,
The present law prescribes how fer
tilizers shall be marked, branded and
registered with the composition and
weight of the packaze and other facts,
The McMichael law proposes to add a
provision requiring the manulacturer
to state from what the potash is made
and also the source of the filles.
It is provided in the bill that if a
farmer finds tha\ fertilizers sold him
have been misbranded, and logs to s
crops results from the use of guch fer
tilizer, he may recover from the man
ufacturer for the loss of the crops.
The BEdwards bill prohibits the use
of any artificial filler,
The senate committee on agricul
ture heard a comprehensive argument
from Captain R, F. Wright of the
state agricultural department, in be
half of an appropriation of $35,000 to
fight the cattle tick; and an appropri
ation of $2,500 to employ a state vet
erinarian, ‘
The following appropriations for the
waintenance of state institutions were
favorably acted upon: For state sani
tarium at Milledgeville, for 1910, $424,
522; for 1911, $430,992, an incrcase of
$10,000; for the Universify of G orgia,
at Athens, $37,500, an increase of $5,.
000; for Georgia School of Technol
ogy, $70,000, an increase o SIO,OOO ;
or the Georgia Normal and Industrial

increase of $7,500: for North Georgia

crease; for State Normal College at’
Athens $42,000, an jncrease of $5,000;
for State Agricultural College at Ath
ens $60,000, an increase of SIO,OOO,

SHOT WHEN HE TOOK JACK POT.
Sheoting at Hotel in Albany Enlivens
Alieged Pcker Game,
Albany, (Ga~—The St. Nicholas ho
tel was the scene of a sensational af
fair recently between L. H. Glenn, of
Abbeville, sheriff of Wilcox county,
and G. B. McDuffy, marshal of Leary,
when it is alleged that Glenn shat
McDuftey when the latter grabbed
the money of a “jackpot” in the po
ker game in which he had been los-
Ing steadily and attempted to leave
the room with it,
Both men were put under arrest,
Glenn charged with assault and bat
tery, carrying concealed weapons, as
sault with intent to murder and gam
bling, and McDuftey charged with
gambling.
- McDuney was wounded in the ear
by the ball fom Glenn's pistol as it
grazed by his head.
~ Glenn claims that he struck MeDuf
fey with the pistol which was acci
dentally discharged.
Following the arrests of these men,
four other cases were made against
parties alleged to be gambling in the
hotel. They were A. S. Mecl.endon,
of Cordele, W, R. Beazley, of Jackson
fville, Fla,, D. B. Motley and Charlie
Daniel, of Albany,
- All the parties arrested waived com
mitment hearing and made bonds for
their appearance at the next term of
court,
~ NO ADVANGE IN LUMBER,
Lumber Dealers Place Orders With
: Mills,
Valdosta, Ga.—The lumbeh brokers
in this city were somewhat amused
and the saw mill owners incersed by
the publication of a dispatch from Sa
vannah in the state papers recently,
to the effect that the mill men of
Georgia, and other states bid fair to
“kill the goose that laid the golden
egg” by arbitrarily raising the prices
of lumber anywhere from $3 to $4 per
thousand feet, and by ignoring the
brokers in that city.
~ Valdosta wholesalers say they are
‘experiencing no trouble in placing
all the orders they have with the mill
men in this section.at practically the
prices that have ruled for some time.
in no cases are they paying more than
$1.25 advance over the prices of even
four or six months,

Bibb County to Furchase New Farm,
Macon, Ga.—Bibb county will spend
the sum of twenty thousand dollars
this month for a new county farm.
Bibb has at present a good farm for
which it paid fifteen thousand dol
lars a few years ago, but the county
has outgrown the present place, and
a new one will have to be secured
if the county wishes to continue to
raise hay and vegetables. During
the last few years enough hay has
been~raised upon the farm to more
than supply the county with a third
of the hay needed during the year.
Vegetables and pork have also been
raised to such an extent that the
farm has been a very valuable ad
junct, and next year the commission
ers intend to branch forward and see
just how much money they can make
for the county through agricultural
pursuits,
, Plans to Uraw Trade,
Savannah, Ga.—Savannah is to
have another organization, the pur
pose of which will be to draw trade
to Savannah, The M(c:rohaut.s and
Manufacturers’ association will be
formed here in a few days, Its mem
bership will consist of the jobbers
and wholesalers of Savannah. The
purpose of the organization is to in
crease Savannah's wholesale and job
bing trade,
The fact that Baltimore houses are
bringing retail dealers through Sa
vannah and sending them to Balti
more by shiploads has moved the Sa
vannah merchants to action, It is
hoped through the organization, which
will be a sort of branch of the cham
‘ber of commerde, to get the business
of many merchants in territory hith

ers,
Will Protect Roads.
Bruinswick, Ga.—Glynn county’s
commissioners propose to preserve
the shelled roads, as tar as possible,
as is shown by the unanimous in
dorsement by that body of a bill now
‘before the legislature to prohibit log
carts from using the public improved
roads of this county. Lumbermen
owning mills in the county are pre
paring to fight the bill.
