WHY THE FARMERS ( FORBID HUNTING I They Have Plenty Os Cause To Post No Hunting % Signs Some of the sportsmen have been inclined to resent the attitude of the farmers in regard to hunting. But to one who knows the conditions this attitude is easy to explain. We relate the case of one farmer as an example. A half, dozen boys or so formed the habit of coming out to this farm to shoot quail and about everything else that had hair or feathers on it. The farmer being of an indulgent disposition permitted this for a while more to avoid trouble than anything else. Close neighbors permitted this hunting so why should he interfere. But matters grew from bad to i worse. Chickens which strayed too! tar from the barn yaid never returned. A half-grown sboat was found in a pile of underbrush with its head shot off. Sheep began to come up with their backs full of shot. Whether this was deliberately done the farmer has yet to discover but he and his neighbors put their heads together and decided to stop it. They agreed that if they showed partiality they would only be stacking up trooble for themselves so they decided to stop all hunters from coming on thsjr land; even their friends were told that the signs included everyone. If they let one hunt everybody else would want to hunt so they stopped all of it. Practicaltv the same conditions as related above obtained in the territory near Syracuse where signs have been recently posted and the farmers there are equally decided that hunting and indiscriminate* shooting must stop and when you consider the example of which we have told you will not have to seek far for their reasons nor will you be able to say that they are unjust. Bay County Fair We are in receipt of the premium list of the second annual Bay county (Florida) fair of which ,Mrs. Mollie C. Truesdell, a former resident of Syracuse, is one of the lady managers. This fair is given under the auspices of the Ladies’ Welfare League and is an indication of what the ladies can do when they try. Dog Bites Child Marie, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Binkley who live at the Benton power house, was severely bitten in the hand by a dog belonging to them, Tuesday of last week. The injured member was badly swollen for a time but is better now. SYRACUSE WINS DEFEATS LIGONIER AT THAT PLACE FRIDAY NIGHT The local basket ball team succeeded in breaking their losing streak, Friday night when they journeyed to Ligonier and defeated that team by a score of 36 and 22. The Syracuse team put up the best exhibition of playing that they have displayed this season and it looks as though the losing jinx has been routed. The next game will probably be with Wolf Lake who have a very strong aggregation of basket ball players. 0 Bought Property The Leesburg band brought the L. C. Zimmerman property in Leesburg for a home. Ordered Into Court Daniel Boomershine of Elkhart county has been ordered to appear in the Kosciusko circuit court at Warsaw and explain why he has not oaid certain fees in the divorce suit brought by Madge Boomershine. —Fresh Pop corn at Winsor’s Restaurant.
