Forester State Ranger {jococooocoocxxwooood: MENTONE C O N SE R VATIO N For all interested in hunting and conservation, the following article by Mr. F. R. Bell will prove of interest. Mr. Bell lives at Mentone and at a recent state wide meetiiTg of the Alaba¬ ma Wildlife Federation was voted ’The Conservationist of the Year.” The Mentone Conservation Club received a shipment on December 13 of eight wild tur¬ keys which were trapped in South Alabama on one of the State refuges. This shipment consisted cf four hen turkeys and four gobblers, and were re¬ leased about the center of Look¬ out Mountain Game Refuge. These turkeys arrived in good .shape and took to the woods on release just as if it was their na¬ tive habitant. This is the first shipment of turkeys that has been received by the Mentone Club, but we have a premise that more tur¬ keys will be sent us as fast as they are trapped. The only limit to the number will be just how many of these wise old birds they are able to get to go into the traps, for, as most sportmen know, though the tame turkeys do some very foolish things, their wild kinfolks, however, are the smartest game birds that the hunter has to deal with, and sometimes it is very difficult to get the wild turkeys to go into traps, regardless of how 7 care¬ fully they may be camouflaged. The State Conservation De¬ partment Is planting 12 acres of oats, rye and wheat in various palces scattered over the refuge to provide winter food for the deer and turkeys and other wildlife that now occupy the re¬ fuge. In our opinion, as a result from a recent check of the game on the refuge, there has been a noticeable increase of squirrels and quail during the past two years, and with the cooperation of every good sportman and the property owners in keeping down the destructive forest fires and the depredations cf those who may see fit to violate the law by invading the refuge, we feel like in a few years this re¬ fuge may be opened by the go¬ vernment for a limited amount of hunting. So that everyone may be fa¬ miliar with the law and not run afoul of it, we wish to advise that no hunting of any kind is allowed on the refuge, nor is a person allowed to carry firearms into the woods or carry a dog with him through the woods for fear that the dog might chase a deer, or that the hunted might be tempted to shoot something else besides hawks and crows. The present law prohibits the hunting of turkey and deer in all counties in Alabama except the following: Balwin, Bibb, But¬ ler, Chilton, Choctaw, Clark, Co¬ necuh, Coosa, Covington, Dallas, Escambia, Greene, Hale, Henry, Houston, Jefferson, Meringo, Mobile, Perry, Pickens, Sumter, Tuscaloosa, Walker, Washing¬ ton, Wilcox, St. Clair and Shel¬ by. It can be seen from the fore¬ going list that it is unlawful to kill a deer or turkey in DeKaib County any time whether on the refuge or not, and the law also provides that a $50.00 minimum fine for killing a wild turkey and a minimum $250.00 fine for kil¬ ling a deer in prohibitive area. We regret to report that there has been several packs cf dogs chasing the wild deer on the refuge, and only recently two dead deer were found in the woods, having been chewed bad¬ ly by dogs or .some wild animal. Just whether or not they were killed by the dogs could not be determined, but it is a violation to let a dog run loese in the woods without its owner. There¬ fore, the game wardens are making a drive to catch and impound all such dogs found running loose on the refuge, no¬ tifying the owners of the dogs who may redeem them, accord¬ ing to law at $25.00 per head plus a proper amount for feed¬ ing the dogs while being im¬ pounded. All dogs which are not identified and called for by the owner within a reasonable time will be disposed of or destroyed. The club also wishes to an¬ nounce that the shipment of 9.000 bream was recieved cn December 13 from the Stat^ Hatchery, near Anniston. These fish were put in the DeSoto Ri¬ ver above the dam at Riverside Hotel. This makes a total of over 70.000 bream which have been placed in the river at Mentone, there being also ^0,000 bass NAIIONJU ADVERTISING JimSENTATIVI AnVERTISkfi CHICAGO new YO«R • JAN EJANCISCO New I nrland News Mary Patterson Martha June I) rryberry Mr. Jasper Dodd of Possvllle visited Mr. and Mrs. Joe Lee Ta¬ tum Wednesday night.

Mr. Earnest Shackelford, a former clerk in the Company at the Furnace, has ac¬ a position in the Third Bank at Chattanooga.

Lanier, Government was in town this week. had been looking up some letters which myste¬ disappeared at the Fort pest office some time ago. We call the special attention our readers, and particularly Health For Ail COLDS Although he obviously suffers, his running nose and eyes, and coughing, a cold probably gets less sym¬ than any other ill person. One reason may be that most average two or three a year and most people look a cold as just a temporary Another reason for this lack of sympathy might be that people realize a cold is catching and so they avoid the sufferer.-The person who care¬ lessly spreads his cold germs by neglecting to cover his coughs and sneezes with his handker¬ chiefs or tissues is especially unpopular. For the so-called “common is highly contagious. The most frequently spreads cold at the time the symp¬ first appears, but his cold be spread even before he himself starts coughing and The cold germ — a virus so it cannot be seen under an ordinary microscope—is usually spread by direct contact. Things like sitting in a draft and get¬ ting wet feet are not sufficient in themselves to produce a cold. But doctors believe that sudden changes in temperature and ss- ve:e chilling or wetting sensitize the membranes of the nose and nose and threat and makes a person more vulnerable to cold germs. Cold germs can lodge be¬ fore hand in the membranes of the nose and throat and not “take hold” until sudden chill or cold weaken surrounding tis¬ sues. A cold, of itself, is never the cause of death. If neglected or ignored, however, a cold can lead to serious illness or com¬ placed in the same stream dur¬ ing the past 12 months, and we have a promise of additional bass in the early Spring. The people of DeKaib County, and especially those cf Mentone are very appreciative of the at¬ tention that the Conservation Department is giving toward the restocking of game and fish in the Lookout Mountain area, and I know will do everything they can to cooperate and pro¬ tect that game that has been instructed to our care. F. R Bell, Secretary. GAZETTE October 5, 1882 those at the place, to the com¬ munication under the head “To the Letter Box”. should read, meditate and accordingly. Mr. A. A. McLemore, agent for the Chattanooga De¬ mocrat, was in town this in the interest of his paper. Mac is a clever, nice and able gentleman, and we tulate the Democrat on his services. The Democrat is new, neat and spi.y credit to Chattanooga ism, and we wish it much cess. There were seventy five groes, by accurate count, over from the Furnace last day evening to bid God-speed one of their ministers who been laboring with them for veral d^ys during a series cf vival meetings which has in progress for seven weeks, will probably continue more if the grub holds out. 1 There is a certain who has frequently been prowling around over the after the hours of midnight with no other object than to into some business house. has made two unsuccessful at¬ tempts at the post office within the last two weeks, and this should be a warning to our mer¬ chants to be on their watch. Henry May and D. W. were arrested in Cartersville Saturday by an agent of the Se¬ cret Service division, and 115 counterfeited silver dollars and the mold for making them were found in their possession. The arrest causes considerable ex¬ citement and evil rumors. The Court of Ordinary meets on the first Monday of each month. G. M. Crabtree, Ordin¬ ary; S. H. Thurman, Circuit Court Clerk; B. P.

The best way to avoid a cold is to avoid those suffering from colds. But since this is not al¬ ways practical, the best defens; is building natural resistance to all illness, mainly through proper diet and sufficient rest. If a cold does strike, despite precautions, a person should get as much rest as he can, and take light and easily-digested foods, such as soups, milk, and juices. If possible, he should stay at home. Prompt action against the early symtoms of a cold can mean ‘“licking” it in a few days and perhaps warding off a serious illness that might have struck had the cold been Ignored and the body’s resist¬ ance further weakened.
