The Hunting Season. ^
The timo for shooting birds will soon l>e
here again. Almost every year there arc
& few persons who have no regard for the 1
laws of the land so lonjr as such laws stand
v ~J? ""'i ,?? !? nhuiuiirn \v)?.)
OetWWeu Uieill turn men v/>. j? -
go out ahead of the season and kill young
birds, sometimes before they are quite
grown.
This is openly unfair to the hunter who
has respect for the law and refuses to go
out until the season opens. There are
very few, if any, in Abbeville who break
this law. In fact it is not safe for them to
do so. There are hunters who' watch
jealously and they are going to see to it
that no one gets the start of them if they g
can help it. Again there are the members boi
of the Audobon Society who will report ess
any infraction of the bird, fish, or game Pe
laws. And, too, there is the County game poi
warden who will prosecute any one who th<
dares break these laws. 1
It Is a pleasure for the citizens of the opi
County to know that the fish laws for aft
Abbeville were strictly obeyed during last eni
Summer. The law now requires a closed sot
season from Thursday to Sunday inclusive mi
on which no seins are allowed in the bu
streams. So far as we know there were I
no infractions of this law last summer. br<
We have not heard of any one ahead of wo
the shooting season this year. Last year set
there were a few. No man has the right ha
or privelege to breakfthis law any more du
than he has to break any other law, and wi
any one who breaks it should be punished, in
and he will be punished if reported. coi
It is such a temptation to slip out ahead coi
of ever}' one else and Kill the birds before ne
they have ever heard the report of a gun, coi
but It is unlawful and wrong. There will mi
be less of it this year than there was last m(
year. coi

icientific and learned farmers may sil|j
ist of their discoveries and their sue- in
ies in raising crops, but Mr. Wm. H. W0I
anell of Bellevue leads them all. He rerts
to us that ho made lifty bushels to

["his crop without plow or hoe, except to
in the fnrrow for the seed grain and j
erward to break the middles. He was jiei
thusiastic in describing the size of the suri
tie and the length of the ear, and in our ]-jn
nds eye we saw visions of great cribs j0(.]
rsting with the staff of life. pal
le exprssed great regret at not having sat,
lught a complete ear to show us, and we 0i(j
iuld have been glad to see it, as he -j
;med to have worked a miracle or to yie
ve made an important discovery in pro- ()f
cing the healthy homo sowed grain,
tich is free from tne danger that lurks res
the meal that ii made from Western res
rn. We all know thstjthe native grown CC)g

11*6 success made us feel that Abbeville ^he
jnty at least was safe from the fatal colJ
ilady that afflicts so many eaters of
ial that is ground from musty Western we)
rn. It was after we began to eat the ^
isty meal or after we began to feed our imj
ickens on "chopped feed" and then be- ^hi
n to eat the chickens, which fowls are
id to be after eating musty chopped food anj
cellent and sure purveyors to the hum- nei
fnmily of the dreaded Pellagra. tjlc
VIr. Pennell was so (enthusiastic on the wj]
ving fifty bushels of corn on the "Pen- ^
11 plan" that we thought we were saie ^

Ele could, we thought, furnish the town p0(
th wholesome meal, from which board- tj1(
? houses could make the necessary corn j01
ead and "dress the chickens" in the mt
test and best style which we
ight. in en joyment of the appetite and in
fety to the health, fill our bread basket gU(
satisfaction.
When we asked how many acres of corn
planted in this way, he said he had not 1
arge field and when pushed as to the M
res he finally knocked all our hopes into pi
'cocked hat" by saying that he thought
had the twentieth part of one acre,
