Connecticut Sportsmen Advocating Important
Measures.
The sportsmen of the state are using
all efforts to secure the passage by the
present legislature of the following
game bills:
First—“Every person who shall buy,
sell or expose for sale any woodcock,
quail or ruffled grouse, called partridge,
at any season of the year, the posses-
sion of each bird to be deemed a sep-
arate offense, shall be fined not more
than $25, provided that no person shall
be imprisoned more than 30 days for
failure to pay any fine or costs imposed
under the provisions of this act.”
Second—“Section 2,549, Chapter 152,
Title 41, of the General Statutes of 1897,
is hereby repealed.” The section reads
as. follows: “Every person who shall
make use of ferrets for the purpose of
taking or destroying rabbits, upon .the
lands of another, shall be fined not more
than $7, or imprisoned not more than
3Q1jdays, or both.” It is intended to re-
pld‘ce. this statute with a more string-
ent ferret law.
Third—"Every person who shall
hunt, kill, destroy or have in his pos-
session any rabbit or hare between the
15th day of December and the 15th day
'of October, the possession of each rab-
bit or bare to be 'deemed a separate
offense, shall be fined not more than
$10, provided that no person' shall be
imprisoned more than 30 days for fail-
ure to pay any fine or costs imposed
under the provisions of this act.”
Fourth—“The treasurer of the state
of Connecticut shall offer and pay a.
bounty of not less than $2 for the kill-
ing of each fox between October lst
and March let in each year, such boun—
ty to be paid by the state treasurer
upon evidence satisfactory to him of
the killing of each fox. ”

Why are Allcock’s the best plasters?
Because they make the cures where all
others fail. Why do they make the cures?
Because they contain the right materials.
Compare their fine aromatic odor with
the nasty smell of all other plasters.
Your sense of smell Will tell you which
is the best. Did you know that Allcock’s
have a greater sale than all the other kinds
put tOgether'? "Did you know that all
makes and brands of so—called porous
plasters are in imitation of Allcock’s?
But they imitate in appearance only.
Don’t waste your money in buying the
false. Get ALLCOOK’S, the standard
plaster of the world.
