The Dig Store with The Little Prices. THE DUCKS ARE fLYIKG First of Season a Few Days Flight tWiij Be On.

The ducks "scouts" have commenced their flight. The "scouts" are the advance euard of the flocks of wild ducks that twice a year pass over the state of Kansas to and from their winter and summer quarters. This has been an unusually open winter and the indications aer that the flight of the ducks will begin earlier than usual. The ducks begin their flight about tlie same time that the small boys begin to play marbles. Tuesday' a flock of ducks oew over lola and the same day the boys began to call at the stores for marbles.

When the boys play marbles it is a sure sign that winter is over. Another indication that the duck season Is near Is the fact that the hardware merchants are plac ing guns, ammunition and hunting Jackets in their display windows. Things are growing too warm In the south and the thousands of which have wintered on the gulf coast have begun their trip through Texas. Oklahoma, ansas and Nebraska to the Dal kotas and Canada. The scouts which are passing through here now are mallard and pin tail.

The mallard is the liest known scion of the duck family in this region. The pin tall is not quite so well known but In numbers It is far ahead of any other branch of the family. The green wing teal Is usually the next to move. Carts Thirty-six diffiereiit Styles. Prices rang- 0 Then come the canvas wigeon gadwell, whistler, blackpacck, fisher, bluebill, goldeye and last of all the butter duck and bluewing teal.

The open season for duck-in Kansas is from September to April 15. From now until the close of the season on the latter dat ethere is apt to be a good deal of activity in the duck hunting line. If the ducks were as wise as they ought to be they would get their tickets from the gulf to the Dakotas made out with long stopover privileges In Kansas. This state gives the duck more protection than does any other state. Under the present law a hunter is permitted to shoot only twenty ducks a day.

If having already killed nineteen ducks the hunter shpuld happen to bring down.more than' one at his next shot he would be an an flx indeed. The law also prohibits the buying or selling of ducks. This law Is not exactly a favorite with either hunters or those who are fond of eat ing ducks. They say there Is no sense in protecting ducks. The duck is a tramp.

It never staj-s In Kansas long enough to establish a residence. The quail flies on a homestead, settles down and raises a family fiiving the youngsters all the educational advantages possible. The quail famLv does good service in bugs and inserts. Not so" with the duck family. Card of Thanks.

A. Calls Down Some Kansas Politicians. John W. Wall, national president of the-Anti-Horse Thief association has Issued a letter the members of the association advising them to keep out of politics. He calls special attention to the fact that an attempt is being made by some of the Kansas politicians to make political use of the or- ganiation.

The letter which is published in'the A. H. T. A. Weekly News is as follows: To the Members of the A.

H. T. A. Greeting: Slice January 10 I have received many letters concerning a certain freight rate meeting held at Wichita, Kansas, on the above date, asking if it was a proper thing to do as a suborder of tlie A. JA.

T. A. to send delegates to said meeting. I am very much opposed to the A. H.

T. A. taking any part or action In politics' as a suborder or association. As the editor has said in his issue of January 25th, do not mean to say that because a man is a member of the A. H.

T. A. he' ehould not take a hand in such affairs if he wishes to." This is a matter almost-ent rely foreign, to the purpose for which the- A. T. A.

was organized. The facts are many of the sub-orders were misled as to the nature of the meeting. The Commercial club it appears took this method of getting a large attendance at- the meeting. The editor's opinion is well taken and I heartily concur in everj' word. The meeting at Wich-! ita on January 10th, was nothing more nor less than pollticiins arranging for.

the next campaign In Kansas. re- ceived a copy of the commercial club meeting of December 13, 1905. On i first page, third clause reads as follows: "To assist in the election a United States senator in' 1907, etc" Clause fourth, "That the conventions county and state, which will be held next spring for the nomination of candidates for the legislature, wh'ich makes the meating a political one. We advise all A. H.

A. divisions and sub-orders general not to dabble in politics as a sub-prder. Would recommend to the presidents oJF each division, should their sub-orders continually violate their decisions wolud be good cause for calling in their charter. The politicians of'Kansas have just recjently discovered! that there was suoli a grand body of men as the.A.' H. JTv A.

in Kansas, 'and they are Just "sitting up and taking notice." Just received a letter from Hon. J. F. Roebuck, of Arkansas City, declaring himself much opposed to the A. H.

T. A. going into the political arena. His position as also well taken. When such men as Mr.

Roebuck takes a position It Is always a power for good and" for the upbuilding of the A. H. T. A. Ho is a member of the largest sub-order In the United States, No.

157, of Arkansas City, which numbers nearly the 400 If we do not miss our guess you will hear from him latei along these lines as he is an able writer. I understand that some of the leading political papers of the state declare the A. H. T. are taking an active part as an organiaztion; The statement is false and misleading and not a word of truth contained in the statement.

Should thsrc be any mcas ure or special act of the legislature that wc desired we always take such matters up at our regular or annual and If found the mat ter Is taken up and considered, but not politically by any means. As to the order in general it Is increasing In membership In each of the divisions, and Is In good healthy condition. We respectfully ask the organizers of each division to look after and assist organizing as many suborders as Jpossible, as the winter months-are rapidly going by and as a rule less work Is done along these lines in the summer months. We are reissuing "Qow to ize an A. H.

T. A. Sub-order," considering its aims and objects, which will be ready for free diLtribu- tlon to those who are not familiar with our work. These new books will be off the press by February 15th and should you desire one or more address McCarty, Coffeyville, as he will have them for sale by the dozen at The proceeds goss to the A. H.

T. A. Sample copies free to those organizing new subK)rders. Wishing the A. H.

A. in each division every success. I remain. IMPRESSED WITH PAYED STREETS Secretary of Tulsa soclation an Idloj Manufacturers' As- Visitor. Mmi mud wttl tamk All kinds Af Caniaee Work Robber tirM a Specialty.
