FISH HOGS! Laws in regard to fishing are being j regarded with contempt in the Wa- , wasee community, and are being > broken daily. Smart remarks and whispered al-J lusions to the lawbreaking are heard ! wherever men congregate to loaf and gossip. Public opinion, spontaneous unbiased and undirected opinion says that this lawbreaking is going on. Ope hears stories of men who depend wholly or in part for their livelihood upon satisfied returning year after fish on Lake Wawasee, going out and catching more than the legal limit of bass in a day, some undersized at. that thus jeopardizing their own living. One story which has been repeated quite often is thnt “a patty who sells minnows to the fishermen in the summer. and a friend of his' caught 40 bass in one day.” Yet some people wond« i why the conservation department obtained a law from the last legislature requiring that every person shall have a fishing license. Some of the loqal fiah hogs should be required to pay SIOO a year license instead of sl, and SIOO fine, and then the state would ■till be receiving the worst of the deal. A favorite subterfuge of some of the natives who depend on a big tour- j tat summer on Wawasee for their . living ta to catch the limit, when out fishing, then take their string to their homes, and return to the lake j to catch the limit again, repeating the process as often as possible. They must not want paying lake ] visitors to catch any fish. ! Under some circumstances the breaking of fish laws may be condoned, as when a man that is°out of work catches the legal limit of fish and sells these to obtain a little ready cash. But the man who catches fish just to see how many he can get should receive the condemnation of the community as well as the most severe punishment that can be meted out to him. For some reason or other the game wardens cannot catch this sort of offender. He ta crafty and takes advantage of the fact that people have a natural dislike Id testify against anyone or cause any trouble. i However we are looking foiward to the day when some of the fish hogs will be hauled before a justice of the peace instead of some dumb unsuspecting tourist with an undersiz-' ed fish in his possession. MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS Instead of the U. S, spending another five million dollars on another dirigible, a better plan would be to use the money for more pursuit and bombing planes, or submarines. After repeated assurance from the Democratic administration that the many who were disabled in the service of their country, the many who were shot or gassed or otherwise disabled -"lighting for their country would -be v taken care of, the new economy bill of the Democratic administration reduces the princely allowance of such men by 20 per cent. That ta gratitude. /t Nothing was too good for the boys tn the trenches some years ago—in talk—when every one why stayed home was making a fabulously large salary. But now the men disabled in mind and body must be content with a pittance sufficient for a bare existence. A young man out of work has an opportunity to gain a fine experience if he ta fortunate enough to get into one of the reforestation camps that are going to be set up by the government. Food, clothes, physical training, army discipline, healthy ontdoor work, and S3O a month is not to be passed over lightly. Such a life will prove irresistible to many. If the government keeps on issuing bonds, who will be left to buy them? If all the pending federal legislation is enacted, the bond issuing power of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation will be 4 billion 700 million dollars. This studendous sum of money will be met by issuing government securities. Where are we going? And can we pay for it? - -o — Early Hosiery Manufacture Although a stocking loom had been imported Into Pennsylvania by John Camm about 1723 and several other* were introduced during the Revolutionary war. the buslaeee did not expand rapidly until 1831. when the 1 . -rr MWM Itdft use. ■

They pass the winter, exposed, on the branches of trees and for this reason I and the further fact that the trees are bare of foliage, the best control is possible by spraying with a dormant oil spray before the buds open, according to J. J. Davis, head of the Entomology Department of the Purdue, University Agricultural Experiment Station. I With the exception of the Oyster Shell scale, the dormant miscible oil or lubricating oil emulsion, should be used iata 2to 3 percent oil strength, depending on the abundance of the insects. It is advisable to follow directions on the container be- ■ cause the percentage of oil in the stock oil sprays varies from 60 to • 100 per cent arid the effectiveness depends on the percentage of oil which should be two or three per i cent - j For Oyster ~Snell scale which is commonly found on lilac, cornus, ash and popular, an 8 per cent oil spray should be used as this species winters over in the egg stage under the thick mother scale which ta diffi- , cult to penetrate. In any case, success ta possible only when the sprays are thoroughlyapplied so as to reach every insect ion the branches.

At this meeting Mrs. Emerald Jones of Milford was the speaker, and her message was not only a wonderful address but was brought in such an interesting manner that every one was enthusiastic jin their words of appreciation.' The key note of her address was “that each and every woman can have part in the work of the different .departments of the Church, Sunday School and Aid society,! and that all that is required of any one is to just use what one has at hand, with the intelligence God has blessed one with. Among the visitors attending this meeting were Rev.- and Mrs. Hartman, Mrs. Oscar Metzler and her mother from Wakarusa. Next Thursday the 13th, Rev. and Mrs. Ezra Flory of New Paris expect to be prseent and will take part in the programs.

«***«•***•*! ♦ PLANNING THE •, ♦ SPRING PLANTING • , *•*)***«•»•* Having planned the desirable location of plant masses, and having de- < cided just what available shrubs will , best provide the desirable effect, next step in spring planting is thej preparation of the ground. All shrubbery beds should be spad- 1 , ed thoroughly. Well rotted manure, | well spaded in, will insure {growth and the desirable soil condi- {. tion. If the ground is largely clay, this may well be removed and replaced, by good top soil as an additional in- 1 surance of the desirable growth. This | is particularly important for shrub-; bery beds against . the wall of the i {residence. The planning of the spring tree planting is especially important since the large effects in landscape 'plantings are determined by the . choice and locations of trees. > There is not sufficient room, on the average place, for the planting of all the trees desired. You choose between a crowded and overshaded lawn and a poor setting for the residence, and the restrained planting of trees which will provide {the best landscape effects. Several trees may be planted to {shade the sunniest side of the house in the afternoon. These may often I form a good background for the house and break a monotonous rqof line. . ' - ' i Trees to be planted in the front of the house should occupy positions at the outer margin of the lawn, leav- { ing the center open. A pair of shapely trees may well be placed near the front of the dwelling to form a frame for it. j On the farmstead, several trees may often be planted in the back-. yard to relieve the bareness of buildings and keep the outbuildings in a secondary place in the picture. { In planning, the possibilities of the roadside should not be overlook- ’ ed. The responsibility for the best' appearance of the roadside may well) be assumed by the owner of the ad-| I jacent land—with confidence that i any expenditure thus made is a matter of good business in enhancing , real estate values, j The choice of the trees is highly {important. Time is too precious, as measured in tree growth, to gamble ' on trees not known to thrive in; the i locality in which they are to be planted. This is particularly true of . the trees which are to occupy the important positions on the grounds. | In general, the more rapidly growi ing trees are short lived and will make a poor memorial to the plants{man fifty years from now. Some of Indiana’s best native trees may well be used, and only such exotics as have proved their worth or as are {intended for unimportant positions j in the planting scheme. For good foliage and autumn color, : the Red or Sweet Gum, Sour Gum or {Tupelo, Sugar Maple, Red and Pin Oak, Sassafras and Tulip Popular are excellent. For shapely form, use Sugar Maple, Vase-shaped White Elm, Linden, Buckeye and Sweet ’ Gum. j For rugged character, use White Oak, Sycamore, and Hackberry. /Sour Gum, in its old age, will assume irregular and picturesque

forms. Small trees have a real value in the plans for any planting. Native Redbud and Flowering Dogwood have not yet come into their own due recognition in Indiana as roadside trees. Community organizations concerned with projects in roadside plantings may well consider the possibilities of a stretch of roadside entirely lined with these excellent small trees. The small, lowgrowing tree is least likely to interfere with existing utility lines —which is another important consideration in their greater use. i 0 Friendships Grow ; One does not choose friendships; 1 they grow spontaneously.
