"My mother and

had a headache or was con
stipated.
"At one time I had indiges

of aorts; my skin was sallow,
and I had gas pains. After
a course of Black-Draught, I

Changes Made In
Fishing Regulations
By State Board
A shorter closed season which will
permit fishermen to indulge in tbeir
favorite sport on Easter Mcsdav a -id
uniform closed seasons on fislvr - ?.>
make possible a more effective pre
tictmn of fish during the spawning
penod are important feature ,,f
changes recently made by the l;.,ard
ot Conservation and Development a*
its semi-annual meeting at Morehead
City.
Under the new regulation-, the
closed season on fi>hing will n t be
uin until May 1 instead of April 20.
as has been the la* previously. This
closed season applies to all specie-* of
game fish except the trouts of West
ern North Carolina whose spawning
season comes during a different per
iod of the year. The period of the
year in which these types of fi-h un
protected extends from September 1
to April 15 of the following year.
The geneial closed season will ex
tend from May 1 to Jure 1<>. giving!
a 40-day protected period in ' - e fu
ture in place of .">0 days heretofore.
Another new regulation also pro- j
hi bits the taking of fresh water fish
in commercial waters during the time
j that the season is closed in inla: :
waters.
I Seining will continue under the ban
in inland waters following action of
I the board in denying requests that
special peimits be granted for this
| privilege in certain counties of the
State. The board took the viewpoint
j that as a wholesale method of taking
tish. seining is unfair to the great
masses of fishermen whose opp<>.'*
I nity for sport would be spoiled when
i waters are depleted by those v.-'rio
! would exercise the privilege if sein
I ing were permitted.
j Collections from angler's license
this season are said by officials t<
i well ahead of last year, ha\ ing rea
! I'd approximately $30,000.00. Tl
j State law requires that every per
who fishes in any other except h
home county must take out a Sta!?
license.
Bees Often Fiy Eight
Miles For Honey Load
Confirming the honeybee'- <?? i
tatioii for diligence, the ' 'piled
States Department <>:" AgnV'iUuif
i recently learned that a b ??? will ?
times fly as much as mile- and
return with its minute load. I. n<ler
such circumstances a single ! >und
of honey would represent appi vi
mately IS, 000 trips <?f 16 miles each,
or nearly 300.000 miles of 1 light by
bees.
In a locality in Wyoniintr where
irrigated alfalfa is virtually the only
source of honey, the department
placed some hives S miles trom the
nearest nectar supply. The bees made
daily trips to the alfalla, loaded with
honey, and returned. Since the bees
flew this distance regularly, the de
partment agriculturists assume they
might fly even farther if necessary.
Flying these 16 mile trips, however,
some bees fail to return home because
sand storms overtake them or head
winds impede them. Laden with hon
ey, they are forced to rest often on
the way home, particularly when fly
ing into the wind or in cool weather.
When they reach the hive after such
long trips they often make abnormal
landings, and frequently fail to alight j
| at the entrance of the hive. i
