Any person who goes fox hunting in the sense that he accompanies other hunters, some of whom have dogs in the race, are fox hunters and must have a license," C. H. England, State Game Warden this wieek wrote County Warden E. H. Pinnell in reply to his request for additional information on this phase of the game law. Several citizens of Warren have teen recently indicted cm charees of hunting of fox without license. Protest against this action by interested friends led Mr. Pinnell to write the State Warden asking for further interpretation of the law. Mr. England reply in full follows: "I am in receipt of your letter, asking for further interpretation of the North Carolina Game Law dealing with fox hunting. "I am also in receipt of letters firm gentlemen particularly in the section of Littleton advising that arrests have been made or persons who were really not fox hunting, be. cause they had not purchased a hunting license. "I beg to advise you that the North Carolina Game Law classifies the fox as a game animal and requires that a license must be secured to hunt in open season all game animals. "Therefore, a fox hunter must have a hunting license to hunt foxes. ] This provision or tne law nas Deen tested in Superior Courts twice and Judges trying cases held that all persons hunting foxes must first obtain a hunting license. I beg to further advise you that there seems to be an erroneous opinion among v some persons that unless they have n dogs in the fox hunt they are not o fox hunters and not required to f< purchase a license. As stated, this v is an erroneous interpretation of h the law. Any person who goes fox ? hunting in the sense that he ac- C companies other hunters, some of tl whom have dogs in the race, are fox hunters and must have a license. a "For instance, very often two men jj will hunt quail over the same bird v dog, although only one of the hun- ^ ters owns the dog. Certainly no one would contend that the second per- ^ sen was not hunting quail simply because he did not have his own bird dog with him when he was killing quail over the other man's dkg. "On the other hand, it is not the e policy of the Department to require c people living in a community who ^ happen to hear a fox race in their r( section to have license if they step s out on their porches or in their j yards, or elsewhere, to head the w race; neither does the law require y people who congregate along road ^ sides to listen for a while at dogs a running a fox to have license. a "It seems to me that it is an easy j, matter not only for the wardens, and the courts, but the people gen. ^ erally to understand the difference ? between a fox hunter and some person who is attracted by the cry of ? a pack of hounds and stops to lis- u ten to them for a while. "As you know, whenever I can I come to Warrenton to hunt with * my good friends, Macon Thorntn, Dr. Macon, Dr. Rodgers and others. I bring no dogs. However, when I go there for the purpose of parti- J clpoting in a fox hunt I am hunting foxes just as much as the above i named gentlemen or any other per son who starts with the crowd to hunt and, of course, am subject to the license. ri "I am sure you know who the 0 fox hunters are in your county and that you are perfectly capable of 11 determining who in any crowd are 13 the hunters and who are simply listening to the race for a little n while because their attention has P been called to it by the cry of the b hounds. ' "As you know, it is the policy of E the Department to enforce the law without fear or favor, and to re- 13 quire all persons hunting to obtain r a license to do so. ' b "I am confident the good people r of Warren County will not quibble over technicalities nor attempt to J evade the provisions of the North Carolina Game Law enacted primarily for the best interests of the J sportsmen and hunters of the State to the end that game life may be ^ made more abundant, and thereby t: .afford greater sporting facilities. ti "If you will continue to exercise c * imi hnvR already t |U1R JUOgJItCjib /vu ?_ shown In making arrests for viola- ? tlona of the provisions of the game h lew I have no doubt that the courts ? will continue to sustain you, as I understand they have done in the v (Continued on page 8) ? if % iVARRENTON, COUNTY O LUCKY i _?

With the first game of the series ending in a 5-2 victory for the Athletics, and winning again yesterday afternoon with a score of 6-1, it looks like Connie Mack's boys L have this series sewed up, however, n proponents of the Cardinals are V claiming that the series is not over, C and many things can happen.

After discussing research results ecured in the vailous states, the gronomists prepared a mimeograph heet giving the recommendations /hich they have agreed upon for he coming year. Copies of these ecommendatlons are available from : B. Williams, head of the Department of Agronomy at State College. In brief, the exerts say bright !ue-cured tobacco grown on the leavy or more productive soils hould have a mixture analyzing per cent available phosphoric acid, per cent ammonia and 5 per cent otash, except for gray soils with ed subsoils. These latter should ave an 8-3-3 fertilizer. The light nc less productive soils should ave an 8-4-6. Use from 800 to ,200 pounds an acre in the drill, rmoroughly mixed w:.th the soil, and pplied at least ten days before ilanting. Part of the application may be saved and applied 20 days fter transplanting. It is important tD control sandliown, recommend the experts and hey advise at least 2 per cent of magnesia in the fertilizer. This may e eiven by such 'barriers as sul hate of potash-mafrnesla or by the se of dolomitic limestone. In preparing the fertilizer the hosphate should be derived from uperphosphate, and the potash rom high grade muriate and sulhate or some other available poaah carrying material free from ,'hlorine. Too much chlorine Inures growth and the quality of the ured leaf. One-half of the amtionia must come from high grade rganlc materials and the other lalf from Inorganic with at least ne-fourth of the total ammonia ontent supplied by nitrate of soda, dvise the agronomists. Seer And Wine May Be Made In Home, For Use of Family WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.?The citien who manufactures wine or beer n his home for home consumption, vith no sales involved, was held tolay by Prohibition Director Amos V. W. Woodcock, to be beyond the each of Federal nforcement agencies. As a matter of law, Woodcock explained today in his first proicuncement on this point, the home i. anufacturer is liable to puniahnent if the liquor he produces is 'intoxicating in fact." This, he said, s a point for the jury to decide. Practically speaking, however, he continued, evidence to bring the lome manufacture! to trial oanlot be obtained unless criminal features are involved upon which i search warrant can be issued. i
