INFORMATION AS TO LA|WS ENACTED 1925 Three 1925 legislature acts the department of conservation is frequently called upon for information because, they pertain to Minting and fishing, are summarized in a letter which George N. Mnnnfekl. superintendent of the fish and game division, has just sent to 225 game and fish 'protective associations comprising * membership of 100.000. Namely they are acts controlling and regulating possession of pistols and revolvers in Indiana; establishment of dog kennels, and dog tax. '•* The act/on possession of revolvers makes it unlawful to carrysuch a weapon with a barrel less; than 12 inches long concealed in my vehicle dr upon one's person, 5 except in his dwelling house or place of business without a permit therefor. This does not apply to marshals, sheriffs, deputy sheriffs, policemen or duly appointed officers, banks, trust companies or common carriers, or to officers or employes of banks, trust companies or common carriers who are guarding money, nor to members of the army. navy, marine corps or national guard, while o> duty. Permits are issued by county clerks after applicants have two resident householders and freeholders of the county in which they live vouch for them. A non-resident of the state must have a license or permit frofn hi! own state to receive a perm/t in Indiana. An alien can not secure one. A permit costs SI.OO and is gocd for one year or until revoked. The a?t makes it unlawful for any person to sell, barter, hire, lend* or give to any minor, such weapon. Dealers selling such* must have licenses, which are also issued by county clerks. Licenses to establish dog kennels can be secured from the division of fish and game conservation department, and the law provides that persons wishing to establish such may obtain a kennel license for $15.00 a year for a minor license, or $25.00 a year for a major kennel license. A minor dog kennel may consist of not less than 5 dogs; nor more than 15; a mador license for more than 15 dogs held in enclosure. Under a kennel license dogs are not permitted to run at large unless accompanied by an attendant. Dogs held under a kennel license are exempt from dog tax. but dogs if three months old or more, must be listed for taxation as personal property as provided by law-. , , **We are frequently asked about the 1925>regular dog tax.” Mannfeld says under which each county set® its own rate, being fixed by the various county commissioners in J.tnuary of each? year. Under the law the tax must not be less than sl. on a male or spayed female dog. and not more than $3, on any unspayed dog, male or female, and not less than $2. nor more than $5. on each additional dog, male or female. This tax is collected by the township assessor and paid by ! the county auditor into the county treasury where it is credited to the dog fund. The money is used to pay damages sustained by the owners or live stock, and the poultry mained or killed by dogs. o Less than ten years ago the membership of fanners co-oper-ative organizations was less than 650,000. Today the membership exceeds 2,000,W0. Over 300,000 cotton growers are members of "co-ops.” Dairy products list nearly 500..000; fruit growers have 250.00 members; live stock, tobacco and poultry list nearly 600,000. The total value -f business handled was over 2.500.000,-000-one fifth of the total pro-

OUR “FIRST SETTLERS” Iti is likely that a few school children in Turkey Creek Township H fve ever seen a real Indian. and it is hard for people of the present generation to realize that when LaSalle entered! the state, fifty thousand of them roamed the territory and gained a living from wood and stre»ms. The Miamis controlled all Indiana, Ohfio.. Illinois and Wisconsin, but permitted' the Shawnees, Kickapoos. Pottawattoani es, Weas. Prankshaws, Wyandottes. Mingoes and Delaware to share the country with them. The Pottawattomies thrived edong the Tippecanoe river until they were expelled in 1838, and Daughters of the American Revolution-have placed markers at some points along this historic strectm commemorating early Indiana events. The remnant of the Miamis who remained in Indiana gathered at Peru, where Chief Gabe Godfrey exercised his leadership over the tribe until his death. The in Indiana. George Gotffrev. of Huntington. a son of thk old chief, is president of the association and authority for the statement that only 125 Indians are left in Indiana of the thousands who once inhabited the sti.te. o PERHAPS! Automobile motor develop-! ment in the next 5 years that will double present gasoline mileage was predicted at the American Petroleum Institute by A. Ludlow Clayden, Philadelphia chief engineer of gas engine research for the Sun Oil Co. and former technical editor of Motor Age. The average American motorist will drive his 1 automobile from 75 to 100 miles on 25 cents worth of gasoline within the next two decades, according to Clayden. Within 5 years, automobiles will be .operated from 40 to 50 miles on a gallon of gasoline. “American automobile mmufacturers must develop a high compression motor and place it on the to bring about this change,” Gay den declared.

Grace Lutheran Church As I drove along the road the other day, I noticed an old windmill a field. The well was still there. The steel frame was in good condition. The wind was blowing, but the mill was pumping no water. Three or four blares of the wind-wheel were gone, leaving the wheel without balance and power. We occasionally see people like that old windmill. TTiey have a physical frame. There is plenty of Life all around them. The wind of God’s . Providence continues to blow over them, but they never pump any water. Their “wind-wheel” has lost its balance and. power because it has no blades of spirituality.

CLOVER SEED Beware of the blank label when purchasing clover seed this winter. Failure to completely fill in the statements on the label required by the seed law on seed sold in Indiana, particularly the failure to state the number of noxious weed seeds per pound, is one of the greatest difficulties encountered in connection with the seed law, according to A. A. Hansen of the Purdue extension staff. The percentage of absolutely pure seed available is small, but nevertheless much of the labeled seed now on the market is sold without the required information as to weed seed content. This puts the honest dealer who supplies this information to his customers’at a serious disadvantage in competing with the dealer who does not correctly fill in his labels. There is comparatively little fed clover seed sold without at least a trace of buckhorn or alsike free from dock on thte market. Although it is possible to secure seed absolutely free of noxioiis weed seeds, when a f armer is purchasing seed and

there are no noxious weed seeds declared on the label, it is worth while to examine the seed carefully before closing the detil. In good clover and alfalfa seed it is reasonable to expect some noxious weed seeds, but the seeds of Canada thistle, quack grass and dodder should be avoided!. o FARM RELIEF More than 200 bills and resolutions proposing “farm relief” legislation have been introduced in Congress. Scores more are expected before the spring recess. Most of the measures call for some form pf government control of price fixing and involve appropriations amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. Most of the bills are for political purposes, which perhaps explains why 95 per cent of these measures have been offered in the House. Not over a dozen of the entire number will reach the floor for consideration in either house but the /‘folks back home” will know .that their representative is “on the job.”
