In store for them. Not a few of them are Inquiring aa to the best fishing place. Unless the creeks recede gradually for the next few weeka the water will be entirely' too high for any kind of satisfactory flahing, Each year sees' riew inventions to aid the angler, aoma sportsmanlike and some unsportsmanlike, and this year a genlua haa devised a process for pickling mln-ajwa.

He puta them up in square glass bottlea aecurely aealed. containing from twelve to twenty minnows, according to alee, and aella them at a lower rate than la paid for Mve minnows at the fishing resorts. Borne anglers object to.

thera becauae they are dead, but minnows put Spon 'the hook alive live, only a little while. The Inventor, of course makes a seeret of his process, but a chemist ought to' be able to detect It without When this la done there will be no reason why 1 an angler should not put up his bait in tne autumn and keep It over until the spring, taking the water In June supplied -fully with minnows In bottlea, frogs In tine and dragon files Inid away In layers. The law prohiblta the catching of trout before April 15. Fine for violation is 123. It further provides that no trout less than six Inches in length (hall be taken from any stream.

Fish wardens say the law requires them to examine baskets and they propose doing so. The fine la 110 for each and evry trout found In any one ossesslon that la under lawful aize. Wild ducks are beginning to fly north ward, temnted bv mild weather, which -has been prevailing for aome time. Dr. Jacob Kalbfus.

aecretary of the Pennsyl vania Game Commission, said: "A strong effort Is being made tn a number of States to have the shooting of ducks confined to the fall and several Statea have made laws to that There Is no question among the sportsmen that such law would be hlahly beneficial In increasing the fly of ducks In the fall and gunners would really get more birds in the end.1' Two bills of Interest to fishermen have been Introduced In the legislature. One Imposes a fine of 180 for every offense for trespassers on private lands for the purpose of fishing. The other requires fishermen from other States who bring their boata into the watera of thia State to fish to take out a license under a penalty of $50. The latter affecte only the lake flahing In lakes of 600 acres or more. According to the annual report of the New York Foreat, Fish and Game Com-miaalon there were 8.770 deer killed In the Adirondack Mountains In 1902.

aa against S.S10 In 1901 and 5,100 In 19C0. The restoration of the moose and elk In that region la now an assured fact. There were two score of these animals liberated In the Adlrondacks during the past year and they are being carefully protected by atslngent Jfltrch and -baas are to he placed In the SfRuylklll to supplant the German carp niw1 in that etream. At the meeting of the Falrtnount Park Commission chairman Snowden of the committee on superintendence and police reported favorably the offer pf Henry Burger of Egg Harbor to tak out of the stream the obnoxious carp and In consideration of thia privilege it being hla Intention to sell carp In the New York market to stock the river with pike and pickerel. Many objections having been made to.

the pike and pickerel. Col. Snowden recommended that perch and black and striped bass be The commissioners adopted the suggestion of the committee and granted threquest of Mr. Burger. Loaning a well trained dog la one of the unpardonable thlnga the sportsman ahould never be guilty of.

wrltea Ed F. Haberleln In the March number of Field and Stream. To refuse a friend the use of your dog for a Mint may seem quite Impolite and unsportsmanlike, but If the dog sought to be usd wltbouti ita owner participating la worth asking for, then the owner la fully Justified tn tefuslng the request. A dog and its master become, accustomed to one another's ways, understand the meaning of every move, rejoice If successful, and work together harmoniously to the pleasure and satisfaction of both, Lend that same well behaved dog to your friends, who themselves are not the happy possessors of a good fielder, and "dollars to dumplinn." before the end of the open season the onoe highly prised animal won be worth the powder It would take to blow him to tg-heaven with. PtANTINO TROUT FRY.

To the Editor of the Record: Under editorial, "State Fisheries Interests." In laaue of 12th you say: "During the paat doien years or more the State of Pennsylvania has expended a large sum of money In the aggregate. In an endeavor to protect and replenish the streams with food fish. It Is admitted that little has been accomplished, and to-day the streams are In little better condition, so far as the fish aupply la concerned, than they were when the work of replenishing waa commenced." might' be difficult to point-out exactly what the difficulty Is. To one who haa aent applications to the commissioners for fry, he received and attempted to plant thom according to Instructions, the cause of failure to produce results is very clear. Let us, for Instance, follow a can of brook trout from the hatchery to Its destination: About 1,100 fry, so small that they can hardly be aeen without the aid of a magnifying glass, are put Into a can similar to a milk can.

A plele of Ice la alto placed In the can. 3 'HflEBts STOMACH fs Fitters To recover your health you must first put the stomach in good condition, thereby purifying the blood.

BATTLE OF THE GIANTS.

The Issue between labor and capital Is indeed great and far reaching. The present century will probably see vast changes In their domain. Capital, thus far In the history of has ruled, and the world has been slowly and surely growing better and away from serfdom and slavery. Has capital oppressed labor In the past? Perhaps, yes, but we now find labor living in cottages Instead of caves and huts. Governments and society have survived the moan In the hut and cottage, but will peace and good government survive when the "lord of the manor" groans and the manor falls Into ruins along with the owner? It seems at least somewhat opposed to nature.

Labor Is determined to rule, and who can foretell the result when these giants exchange sceptres? That will be a time of tribulation, such as the world has never yet seen. And after that the mlllenrum, wherelh neither capital nor labor shall rule; but where truth, right and real brotherly love shall be the umpire in all the affairs of earth. Yes, the government of the millenlum will be a theocracy, the best government ever seen anywhere; and that government might be enjoyed on earth even next year. If the peoples of the world would so decide. Of course, a theocracy cannot reign supreme where there Is selfishness.

The earth cannot know real peace until a large majority of her people have learned to love truth, mercy and Justice more than they love themselves. It Is not certain that all of us would find It easy to be honest and generous In a country where everybody loved everybody else, and all were ready to serve each other to the full extent of their property and their life.

They are met at the different atatlona by the applicants and loaded on a buckboard and hauled anywhere from one to ten miles over rough mountain roads to a point near a tributary to some stream. Access to tributaries back Into he mountalna is not a very easy matter, very often the can haa to be carried a. mile or more before a suitable place' to deposit the fry Is reached. In the meantime the Ice haa melted and the water haa become wacm. and numbers of the fry are dead, and when the balance are deposited into the cool mountain spring water the change of temperature kills many more.

Many of them are eaten by their voracious kindred when they are driven up into the spring runs during very warm weather. Nature covered theso small rune with 'brush, and the anlmalcula falling Into the waters from the bushes fed the small fry until they were large enough to go down Into the larger streams. These small streams are no longer covered with sufficient brush to afford enough food for them, and many fry that escape the dangers already mentioned starve to death. I think that I am safe in- atating that 96 per cent, of thfe fry sent out by the present fish commissioners perish. Ia It any wonder that reaulta have not been obtained? Now aa to the remedy: If the fry were kept at the hatchery until they were at least a year old.

they would then be strong enough to endure the hardships of travel. an4 when placed In the stream would be able to forage for food. If this were dona one-fourth the amount sow annually propagated would be sufficient to produce gratifying reaulta. These are my views, and I recognize the fact that I am but one. Now.

since the ball has been etarted, I would like to hear from others who aro Interested in this matter. Keep rolling. Angler. THREE SCORE AND TEN. A number of friends and relatives of Mr.

TO SNUFF VOLCANOES. A STARTLING DISCOVERT MADE BY AN AUSTRALIAN. Volcanoes can easily be extinguished, says the New York Herald. A New Zealand man claims (and there -are many who agree with him) to have discovered a liquid by menas of which volcanoes may be extinguished quipkly whether active or threatening. Many diseases of the human body act In the same manner, as volcanoes.

Dyspepsia. Rheumatism, Kidney Disorders, Female Diseases -and many others all begin with a slight Tumble of pain and distress, and If not treated In time will burst forth In all their fury, causing all who are so afflicted the most Intense suffering and making life a complete burden. That a liquid has been discovered that will extinguish these volcanic eruptions of disease, whether active or threatening, not only certain but a material fact DR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY Is this liquid discovery. THE WONDERFUL CURATIVE powers of this famous remedy have cut a new path through the field of medicine, sweeping with It a startling record of tremendous success.
