THE COUNTY BASTILE NOT EMPTY. The fact thai the county jail at present contains mure pri than it did at a similar period in igiH has caused considerable taction to a number ol people vlu amendment and now sarcastically ask, "V here is the emptj jail pro hibition wa going to bring?" Now iti the tirt place no thinking person ever expected the dis continuance ot the sale oi intoxicants t" work an inure reform in social conditions or limit crime to the extent that the jails would be no longer of any use. I hat millinium will probably never come, certainly not in tins generation. Then, too, the very enforcement of the amendment, limited as the attempt has been taken as a whole, has created a new use for the county bastile. But that general con ditions have ahead) much improved i patent to nearly every mer chant and business man. In spite "i the hard times and high price in many lines, many a man is not '"in the books" whd was ;i regular doubtful account in years gi ne by. I ne needs but to look arotiml town and he will, he able to see many a man who was considered a hopeless city or county "character who is now not only sell -supporting but is saving sonic money. The greatest good, however, will Dot be apparent in this gener ation; it is in the years to come that the effect will be most generally ill evidence. In spite of the limited eff Its boys, they are almost tree from the old of the open saloon not the better class, who paid the law as it stood, but the div es owned and fostered and whiskey houses. Some of the youngsters are "hootch" and its accomnaniments, but the i pen sal invitation to drink is no more, and il of any easement of the law would tainly no father of a growing boy, While' it is claimed by some that many buy- just approaching manhood are drinking too much i some say as much as ever l it must be remembered that with the example of some o their elders before them it is considered a "foxy" thing to do, this getting of bonze, and there are always Some "smart Alecks" who would be "spurts." !!ut it is enough harder to get that it will go to lar less troul le than the "sporty ' in this direction. But even with the increase in the number of prisoners in the county jail as o mpared to. a period just before prohibition came, it has by no means reached the record number oi occupants. And ev en if it should, it can by no means be laid tqtthe dour of the eighteenth amendment. Considering the general laxness all over the country, which has followed the world war, as it. followed war, the record is by no means discouraging, Hut would lay the blame for the increase in the number the law tor national prohibition. WOULD LICENSE AND LIMIT , HUNTERS. The Department of Agriculture is taking an interest in the big pame of the United States. The bit il igical sectii m ui the department estimates that live million persons will go out into (he woods and fields of the country w ith guns, hunting lor game of some character, 'I he fact that so many will engage in the hunter's sporl emphasizes the "growing need of more adequate and uniform law- to conserve and protect the country's dwindling panic supply," according to the expressed views ot Ihe department duets. It does not require a statement from government officials to satisfy the most casual ob-1 server that American game, whether rn , I 1.1 .ii id.-u i4isppcunng ana tnat ine attempts to protect under tne state laws is little more than checking man's destructive influences. It is within the memorv of men still livinc when deer and hear were imt , , , .. . ,, . .. ion i ii iii iii mi iii mis latitude, w nen desirable lish and ducks and geese in their season fairly covered the bayous and lakes. It is mure particularly with regard to the large game that the department of agriculture i-; interesting itself. "It has been the practice in many states," the department savs. "to issue hunt ing licenses for the open season to all applicants, w ith too little regard for the available game supply of any particular area. The hunters many far outnumber the animals hunted within a given section, and under such conditions this extinction is inevitable." The depart ment then proceeds to recommend a limited license plan lot- big game, based on annual estimates of game conditions in each district, the number of licenses being determined by tlie probable number of animals within the district thai might be killed without endangering future re-stocking, The depart n K iit's fears regarding the extinction of the big game are not without just grounds, judging from the repi rts that come trom the hunting grounds of the north and west, and unless some such course as thai sujresled shall he adopted there will be m tune no necessity fur any protection, for there will he nothing t" protect Like the forests that were here once and are now gone, the big game animals will remain only as a inettti ry. The improvement in the number of wild ducks, particularly in Illinois and W isconsin, under partial protection, is indicative of what can be done by intelligent efforts toward ihe conservation of oamc.

"If Its fair for one man to fix the protits on his goods," he stated, "it's fair tor all."

Mr. Rummell said that h 3 hail been ; told of a board of trade man who ! rolled out a long piece of paper, many 1 feet in length, and stated that it. was 1 the If. S. Grain Growers, Inc., con tract. He stated that alter hearing that story he went home and counted the words in his house lease, which numbered .',000, and then counted the words in the contract, and found there were just 8.000, or 3,0'!0 more than in a house lease. He won loud applause from his au dience when he stated that he Won dered Why the board of trade man did not write the words on his contract lengthwise. He stated that the contract provid led that the farmer must sell all of Iih main to the association, except what In- used for seed or for feed, and Whr.t he sold to his neighbors for food or seed. The contract, he slated, was j for five years, and the farmer was to pay $10 a year dues when he signed j the contract, which was good tor tne entire five years or for a life mem bership. 'He went into the three different BffUKXft of selling tlie grain, by dire'-t ;ueth( d or by the pools. The latter moil" ds, he stated, were instigated ut the reoitti t of the farmers from Okla homa and the great northwest who joined the association. He stated that the farmers who put their grain in pools were given warc DOUeS receipts by the Grain Growers Inc , and could raise money on these. He spoke of the governine of th ; nreanization .telling that the distri organized and elected delegates to ! the national conventions, and that the delegates in the conferences received a vote for every member in the organ isation at home. .
