A A i ; i K , " Zjt XT- ZT ZZa ft" in l'JJT irom this source, anu ine indications are that this sum will be largely exceeded in 1928. Per mits to raise fur-bearing animals were granted to 103 persons in 1927 and 230 were licensed to breed game birds. Fur Bearing Animals Among the animals that are being bred for their fur are the muskrat. skunk, mink, opossum, coyote. Alas ka blue fox. deer and squirrel. Ac cording to a recent survey by the state fish and game department, the muskrat is the greatest fur producer. In the years 1926 and 1927 mon: than 400.000 muskrats were trapped in Nebraska, and their pelts wer? sold for $000,000. The odoriferou- and hitherto despised skunk family delivered 17,000 pelts valued at $25. 000. Four thousand coyote skins brought a return of $40,000. Sev.n thousand opossums yielded $14.00 Weasels, raccoons, badgers, common foxes, and others in lesser numbers helped to make the grand total. Four thousand trapping licenses and 150. 000 hunting and fishing permits were issued in 1927. One person in every nine in Nebraska fishes or hunio in the open season. Many years ago the Chinese phea sant was introduced in Oregon at the suggestion of Mr. Denny. United States consul in China, whose name this beautiful and prolific self-producer now bears. It was not long before the forests were alive with. Denny pheasants, and other states. Nebraska among the number, drew on Oregon from time to tim for breeders. Pheasants Protected In Nebraska these pheasants wer; nut under the supervision of the game wardens and were not allowed to be shot. Under this protection they multiplied so rapidly that in the summer of 19 27 it became nece.sary to declare an open shooting st aon in several of the western counties in order to protect the crops. Many a farmer has added the Denny pheasan to his poultry yard. This game bird takes the place of the prarie chicken. which some years ago was found everywhere in this country, but if fast disappearing, and unless it is "cultivated," will soon vanish for ever like the American passenger pigeon. It is claimed that one-half of all the remaining paririe chicken? are now making their home in Ne braska. There are in Nebraska eight game refuges, covering 400,000 acres. where animals may roam at will and unmolested, and where birds are safe from the shotgun and may build their nests and rear their young in peace.

The Parable of a Certain City and Its Trials . j an Observing "Stool Pigeon Sam, Cuss inn Our Midst, Mirrors Need of Co-Operation. Now there was a certain city in those days whose name was called Plattsmouth. which is in Nebraska, over against the Missouri river. And the city and its people were good. And the people did work to gether and did gather man shekels and pieces of silver. I And it came to pass the citizens of that town did rise up and say, "Be hold, we are a mighty city and we must have waj-s paved with brick and concrete and gravel, for our oxen and horses and chariots of fire, which they called automobiles. We must have new schools, we must lower our main street, so when the rains de seen deth and the floods come, our houses will fall not and we will be sitting pretty. We must have great churches, base ball uniforms, drink ing fountains and fire trucks: parks for the band and kids to play in. tourists to tour in and carnivals to carnival in." And it was so. And when these things did come to pass, lo, there was a mighty increase in the tax rate, which is in School District number one. And the merchants rejoiced and cared not, for the citizens of that town were loyal and did shower them with business, blessings and much yen. And all that lived therein did wax fat. But it was not long so. "Alas," spake the baker who baked loaves for the multitude, "many mer chants and their wives and their neighbors will not eat my daily bread." "More alas," spick the butcher, who bartered in cow, hor.se. dog and fish meat, "neither will the five thous and eat my fishes set unto them, nor my fatted calves."' spat a large sized spit ar.d said un to them. "I have fine wears at cer tain small pieces of silver and the people journey to other lands to buy, and so do their neighbors and man semvnts, and so does your old man." And likewise did the hardware dealer jret exceedinly hot under his ceilnloid collar and break these words unto them, "Ya, you give me the glad go by and purchase thy new stove, flat irons and barbed wire fence, and screw drivers over in the city that is Chicago. And it is I who pays your preacher and teacher of thy young." And he swore a large sized swear. Then the rich merchant who didst offer fine rainment for young men, ard old men who sought to appear young in the eyes of the femininity of the village, gat himself up on his toes and did smite his fists with great potency, saying: "Hear ye; Hear ye! You have sinned against me. yea Uiouh I walk through the valley of the shadow of bankruptcj-. you hark en not at my calling, but throw ko pe ks and shekals and yen with lav ish hands for your radio suits. -'and mail order boots and shoes and what have you. And in the same time I must nay the fiddler in the band." And when the young of the city and the children of the tillers of the soil had gat themselves much educa tion from the hands of the taxpayers, they did hie themselves hence to larger towns of that region, which are called Omaha. Kansas City. Chi cago and Henry Fields, and did come bafk with new garments and shoes and hair tonic, heavy beer and ex ceedinly light wines. And the merchant v.i-t not vhy it wa.

And there was much joy among them. And they blew upon the ram's horn and the cornet, and the swinet. and the French horn and flute and bass drum.
