At lait the (ond hopes of the peo- 

/pi* ple of South Amboy have b«en reallied. 

A source of water sufficient 

to supply tke needs of the city has 

been found. The first day of October 

will be long remembered as the 

day of striking water. No logger 

will this city be dependent on Perth 

Amboy. No longer need we fear « 

water famine. The well that has 

successfully produced the water Is 

located on property owned by 

' Charles P. Rose, near what Is known 

as ROM'S corner. The city through 

Engineer McMichael has obtained an 

option on Are acres of ground at 

this point and It will make an 

ideal location foi a pumping station, 

, as It Is but three quarters of a mile 

from the city's stand pipe. 

The test pumping was made for 

forty-eight .noun and during, thin 

, time 160 gallons of water per minute 

were pumped. The .water Is much 

softer than that now In use by the 

city. The mayor and'many of the 

city, officials visited the well and 

declare themselves well pleased with 

MJM outlook./For the past four 

months the flrni of Redpath ft Potter 

has been In this city driving tast 

wells. The first one was near the 

gas works, and after going dawn 

•bout 400 feet they moved to their 

present site. Although the watei 

was reached In a relative short 

time from the beginning of the 

work, the city engineer has spent 

a good deal of time during the past 

two years In collecting data concerning 

the water supply around this 

section of the country. 

It Is planned that cast Iron pipes 

be laid from the well to the standpipe, 

and from this point the water 

will be distributed to the mains In 

different parts of the city. At present

SATl'RDAY, OCTOBER 6, 11)17 

FOOD rflSMOKVATIOJf WEEK. 

Food Administrator Hoover has announced 

that the week of Oct. 21-28 

has been set aside for "a Nation-wide 

campaign to complete the enrollment 

of our forces in conservation of our 

food supply." 

He makes a strong personal plea 

to the people to conserve food and 

"thus make victory sure." 

"The harvest is now in hand." he 

says, "and we can measure the 

world's food resources. 

"The available supplies this harvest 

year are less than last year; 

the demand upon us is greater than 

last year, and from the last harvest 

we exported more than w 3 could really 

Afford. We can only meet the call 

upon us next year by savings and 

by substitution of commodities which 

cannot be transported. 

We Mut AM AUhu 

"The Allies are our first line of 

defense. They must be fed, and 

food will win the war. All Europe 

is on rations or restricted supplies. 

Only in our own ,country is each 

one permitted to judge for himself 

the duty he owes his country In food 

consumption, although the world depends 

upon us to guard and provide 

Its food supply. 

"This is a duty of necessity, hJinanlty 

and honor. As a free people 

we have elected to discharge this 

duty, not under autocratic decree, but 

without other restraint than the 

guidance of* individual conscience. 

"We are asking every householder, 

every hotel, restaurant and dealer In 

foodstuff** In! the Nation to become a. 

member of the Pood Administration 

tor conservation and to pledge themselves 

to follow, in DO far as circumstances 

permit, the suggestions 

that will be offered from time to 

time as to measures of food saving. 

"For us there is no threat of privation. 

We wish only thut our people 

should eat plenty but wisely and 

without waste. Wisdom in eating is 

to make possible such adjustment in 

our food consumption, shipping and 

war neee»Httle* as will allow us to 

fulfill our duty In exportu to our 

alllps. By eliminating waste we 

serve ourselves economically iiml 

morally.. 

Appeal)! to Every One. 

"I, therefore, appeal to the churches 

and to the schools for their assistance 

in this crusade; to all the 

organizations for defense, local and 

national; to all the agencies, commercial, 

social and civic, that they 

Join the Administration in this work 

for the fundamental safety of the 

Nation." 

During the week of Oct. 21-28 a 

house to house canvass will ba made 

of the 2^,000,000 families - in the 

United State and every man and woman 

enrolled "In a mighty food conservation 

army that will win the war."

how will 

the cost of 

the war 

be met? 

The colossal turns required 

to carry on the 

war must be paid by the 

people. The government 

has no other sourc* from 

which to secure th« 

money. 

There are two ways 

by which the government 

can get this money 

from the people. One is 

by taxation; the other 

is by the sale of bonds. 

When you are taxed, 

your money is gone. You 

never see it again. When 

you buy a government 

bond you get all your 

money buck, and Interest 

besides. 

So, yon see, It is much 

morn to your Interest to 

buy Liberty Ilonds than 

It is to bo taxed. 

Rut there is another 

reason why you nhoulJ 

buy Uherty Dondn—a bigger, 

better reason—-a more

You know it Is the finest 

country in the world to 

llvo in. You love your 

country's HUB. It in tho

and IO(|iialltv. It protects 

your life and your property. 

Hundreds of thousands 

of your fellow Americans 

are going abroad to fight 

for your country and your 

flag. 

Thoy are ready to lay 

down their lives, if need 

bo, to make sure that no 

invader's foot shall desecrate 

American ground; 

that your family, your 

liberty, arc not destroyed 

or violated. 

These gallant yonnsf 

Americans must have 

food, clothing and ammunition. 

Otherwise they 

are lost, and the war is 

lost. 

Thnt is the purpose to 

which the money you 

pay for Liberty Bonds 

will be put. That is the 

reason why you should 

buy Liberty Bonds. 

Do it now. Buy all 

you can.

HANDLING TUB BOSDS. 

It wae announced. Saturday afternoon 

by Arthur M. Andersoa, Executive 

Secretary of tlie Distribution 

Committee of the Liberty Loan Committee, 

that plans are being perfected 

by the Distribution Committee for a 

uniform system of handling the 

bonds which are to be sold iu the 

Second Liberty Ixmu on the partial 

payment plan. Under It, all banka 

and employers who so desire will 

be supplied with punch cards. 

"This question of uniformity," said 

Mr. Anderson, "was agitated immediately 

after the close of the first 

campaign, when many different 

met hols of keeping track of the investors' 

installment payments were 

found to be 'in practice among the 

tanki and corporations of the Second 

federal Reserve District. The plan 

aow under way is to distribute among 

the banks a supply ot cards which will 

be punched every time an Investor 

makes a payment. Tne purchaser 

ot the bond will have one of the 

cardi and the bank which bandied 

his subscription another card, Iden 

tlcal in alie. Both cards will be 

punched at the lame time and the 

first card will be returned to tin 

subscriber. - The second will b« filed 

•war until the next paymmt comes 

due. This system will be applicable 

to 150 and flOO and |Mio bond* 

purchased by Installment*, 

"In the first campaign, many of 

the banks found that the clerical 

work Involved In handling thousands 

of small Btibscrlbtlons wms burdensome 

In "the extreme. The adoption 

of the uniform system recommended 

by the Liberty Loan Committee will 

•simplify the work ot the nankins 

forces. 

"It Is proposed to set In touch 

with every bank In the district, and 

to urge them to adopt the committee'* 

suggestion, An offer will be made 

to supply the banks with cards free 

of charge."

H B FOUND 

It is Now TNoNgbt We May Be Able 

to Hive Our Own Water Supply 

-Well at Present Giving 150 

GallaM • MiMite—City Officials 

WcN Pleased With the Outlook. 

At laat the fond hopes of tbe people 

of South Amboy have been realised, 

A source of water sufficient 

to supply the needs of the city has 

been found. The first day of October 

will be long remembered as the 

* day of striking water. No longer 

will tbli city be dependent on Pert.i 

Amboy. No longer need we fear a 

, W«t«r famine. The well that has 

"Si^ceBsfully produced the water is 

located on property owned by 

'Charles P. Rose, near what Is known 

as How's corner. The city through 

' Engineer McMlchael has obtained an 

option on five acres of ground at 

* tfift" point and it will make un 

Mil location foi a pumping station, 

ai It Is but three quarters of a mile 

from the city's Btandplpe. 

The test pumping was made for 

forty-eight hours and during this 

' time 150 gallons of water per minute 

were pumped. The water Is much 

totter than that now in use by the 

city. The mayor and many of the 

city officials visited the well and 

declare themselves well pleased with 

(M outlook. For the past four 

months the firm of Kedpat.li & Potter 

has been In this city driving tast 

wells. The first one was near the 

>, and after going down 

about 400 feet they moved to their 

present site. Although the watei 

wat reached In a relative short 

time from the beginning of tho 

work, the city engineer bag spent 

a good deal of time during the past 

two years In' collecting data con- 

...—earning the water supply around this 

lection of the country. 

It' It planned that cast Iron pipes 

be laid from the well to tbe standpip*, 

and from this point the water 

will be distributed to the mains In 

different parts of the city. At preexpected 

that air pumps 

be installed for this purpose. 

though satisfied with the present 

yield of. the well the engineer has 

ordered the contractors to go deeper 

in order to see If there is an Increased 

flow at a greater depth.

THEATRICAL ASSOCIATION. 

The fact that the people of South 

Amboy are Interested In a dramatic 

aieoclation was shown in the meet- 

Ing held In the rooms of the Public 

Library on Tuesday evening. Eleven 

new namet were added to the list 

of members at this time. Mr Haynej 

again acted as temporary chairman 

and for 'the benefit of the new 

members stated the object of the 

organisation. At the last nicotine 

the name of the organization was 

made the Middlesex Dramatic and 

Operatic Association and at Tues- 

'day evening meeting tho iidme was 

changed to the Middlesex Amateur 

Theatrical Association. Tho committee 

appointed to secure a place for 

arid practice) reported that 

""we're awaiting the decision of 

: .i, ',the" Board of Education in regard to 

-I''/,Mf« use of the High School nuditnr- 

State Militia Ready 

To Be Mustered In 

The stage is set for the final scene 

in the organization of the company 

of state militia in this city. Tonight 

(Friday) the event that the members 

have been looking forward to for the 

past weeks will take place. A detachment 

from headquarters at Camp 

Edge, Sea Girt, will come to this city 

and muster the* local company into 

service. The company will be known 

officially as Co. F, Third Battalion 

N. J. 8. M. of South Amboy. Thia 

city will be associated with two com- 

1 mines from Red Bank, one from Aubury 

Park, one from Lakewood and 

one of New Brunswick. It is indeed 

fortunate to be placed In this battalion 

as it appears to be the best 

in the state. The tact that this city, 

a place of only eight thousand people, 

bus organized their company faster 

than any of the larger cities of the 

state is causing favorable comment 

at Trenton. When one reulizo-: 

that the City of Perth Amboy, approximately 

seven times larger thun 

South Amboy, railed.In "their attempt 

to organize, a company will givo tlio 

people an Idea as to what has been 

accomplished. The committee In 

charge has the assurance of tho state 

officials that as soon us the requisition 

for equipment is plat-oil in tho 

hands of tho Adjutant Onenil they 

would be forwarded to this city 

without delay. 

A very enthusiastic' meeting wan 

held in the City Hull on Monday 

night with tlio lurgest attendance of 

any previous meeting. Two officers 

from Co. E. of New Brunhwlck were 

on hand and made a few remarks 

which were appreciated by those 

present. They stated that the Now 

Brunswick Company was planning to 

come down to tho mustering on 

Friday night. A special car had 

been chartered for the occasion. The 

officers present were. First Lieu*, 

(•roshline, and Second Lieut. Pressler. 

Remarks were also made by a 

Mr. Byers of New Brunswick who 

Is a veteran of the Spanish War. 

He said it was about time that South 

Amboy got some credit. That previous 

to this our men wefe going 

out of town and joining other organizations 

and other cities were getting 

credit for their enlistments. 

It is the desire of the committee 

to have every man who has signed 

up to be present on Friday night 

so aa to get the full number mustered, 

There is. still an opportunity 

for a few men to get in the company 

as it is expected that some of those 

who have signed up will disqualify

Thursday gave out figures on the 

tax rates for all municipalities in 

the county, the rates covering all 

taxes imposed through tbe towns" 

themselves, the county tax, the 

state school, and the state road

Is the only place In the county, 

which has a tax rate lower than 

previous year. Perth Amboy has a 

rate of $2.88, an Increase of thirtyeight 

points. Dunellen, which last 

year paid taxes at the rate of $2.69 

on the $100 valuation is the highest 

place in the county this year, with 

a rate of $3.16. North Brunswick 

Township is the lowest in the county, 

with a rate this year of $1.49, 

as compared with $1.33 last year. 

All places are hard hit through thu

1 the Crimean war was 

in full swing, newspapers were teeming 

tbe same as to-day with accounts 

of battles, mines and mining ex 

plosions and blowups the same as today, 

and the accounts were only 

miUus the destruction of U-boats and 

aeroplanes, as they did not exist in 

those days. 

The mining accounts given by the 

papers of that' day so impregnated 

a resident barber that he laid a 

mine, anjd for a seat be used an 

oyster basket turned upside down, 

placed it on the mine and sat onto 

it awbile, but as it did not blow up 

he concluded he had not laid the 

mine right, and got off the basket. 

He had hardly got away from it 

when the basket went up and over 

tbe top of bouses of two streets 

in Keyport, and if he had remained 

on it, It would have blown very 

much further and higher. Oyster 

baskets were a very prolific article 

in Keyport a« they were the largest 

oyster shippers in the state. 

So immense was the business the 

oysters shippers owned their own 

steamboats. Oh, but how quickly so 

large a business can be annihilated. 

A doctor resident of Spots wood paid 

Keyport a visit, partook of a plate 

of oysters, returned to Spotswood and 

died. That event was published all 

over the United State*, which killed 

that Immense oyster business so 

dead that it never had a resurrection 

since. That was an eventful 

year, all rivers in the country were 

frozen solid to the bottom, Including 

llarltan bay. Slclgh-rldem left the 

country ruads and took their sleighing 

out on the river. If yon 

drove on the river from South Ainboy, 

you could Hlfilgh-ririe toward New 

York City or In another direction 

you could reach any point between 

here and Siindy Hook. Tills Hlelehlni; 

lasted for nino weeks, The buy In 

front of Keyport WUH dotted over 

with oyster sloops. The owners 

not oxpectlni? to lie hold up thul 

great length of tiuio by the Ice, 

provisioned the boats. Thulvi'H 

visited these boats, and as they were 

constantly robbed, one owner set ii 

pop gull' which shot and kllle:> a 

young man, Ihc only son and support 

of a widow. As the man who 

set the trap gun was not amenable 

to the law, he was given a severe 

reprimand by the jury, and the 

practice of Betting trap guns for 

thieves was abandoned. 

In whatever part of the United 

States I was at the week end I 

always endeavored if possible to reach 

the Metnzer homestead to spend 

Sunday with the family, but upon 

this Sunday evening I was in my 

room at Keyport and heard the shot 

about nine o'clock, but did not know 

what It was about. The next morning; 

I heard that a young man was 

allot at one of the oyster sloops and 

was lying on the ice. I went on the 

river to see the body, and as I viewed 

it frozen 1 stiff and surrounded with 

snow drifts how my heart went out 

to the dear mother at the anguish it 

v ill cause her when the news is 

broken to her of her son's act.

HAWOLISG THE BOVDS. 

It was announced Saturday afte 

noon by Arthur M. Anderson, Execu 

live Secretary of the Distrlbutioi 

Committee of the Liberty Loan Coinlaittee, 

that plans are being perfected 

by the Distribution Committee for 

uniform system of handling th 

bonds which are to be sold in Hit 

Second Liberty Loan on the partial 

payment plan. Under it, all bank: 

and employers who so desire wi 

be supplied with punch cards. 

"This question or uniformity," sa)i 

Mr. Andemon, "was agitated imrneii 

ntely after the close of the nra 

campaign, when many different 

methods of keeping track of the in 

vestors' installment payments wen 

found to be in practice among thi 

tanks and corporations of the Secom 

Federal Reserve District. The plai 

now under way is to distribute amon 

ill* bank* • supply of cards which will 

'be punched every, time an investoi 

make* a payment, The purchase! 

of the bond will have one of the 

cards and the . bank which handled 

his subscription another card,, identical 

In site, Doth cards will be 

punched at the same time and th 

first card will be returned to th 

- subscriber. The second will be Die 

•way until the next paymant come; 

due, This system will be applicable 

to $50~»nd $100 and $500 bond 

purchased by installments. 

"In the first campaign, many o 

the banks found that the clerlca 

work Involved In handling thousand 

of small subscribtlons was burden 

Rome in the extreme. The adoptloi 

of the uniform syatem recommended 

t>y the Liberty Loan Committee will 

simplify the work of tho bunkini 

forces. 

"It Is proposed to get in tone 

with every bank in the district, an 

to urgo thorn to adopt the committee': 

suggestion. An offer will be mad 

to supply the banks with cards free 

of charge."

George M. and Alice Pierce; and 

Florence Anna, daughter of John FV 

acid Mary Towne. 

Over fifty children from the Sunday 

School remained for the church service 

last Sunday morning and heard 

the Rector'B talk on "The Coral 

Workers." There was also lome 

Increase in tbe attendance of adults

Boys in Camp." Mr. Andrew Kvis 

sends us a few lines from Wrights 

town to the effect that he's fit a 

a tiddle" and "strong as a bull." 

We are glad to note that Andrew's 

many friends at Doane Memoria 

Chapel gave him a fine blanket and 

a "dandy" sweater before he lefi 

South Araboy. We hear that he is 

much attached to that sweater and 

not infrequently sleeps in it! Andrew 

had to lead a Bible Class the very 

first Sunday after reaching camp 

It r-jpars that he and Martin Nielsen 

V*nd Jacob Friscbknecht are 

sharing everything in common (except 

toothbrushes). Sunday is 

strenuous day at the camp by reason 

of many visitors, for whose edification 

the boys are kept pounding 

away iul the execution of military 

evolutions until their tongues are 

hanging out. Andrew writes that he 

hopes lo be home for a short visit 

about next Saturday. 

Among our other boys, we note 

that Elmer Parisen la at Fort Sam

"Am I My Brother's Keeper?" was 

the subject preached by the Faster

usual ceremonies which consist o 

The repeating of the Stout Oat 

and giving the salute to the Flag. 

The minutes of previous meeting, 

Sept, 17, were read and accepted. 

The treasurer then gave his week 

ly report. 

A discussion over who should become 

Physical Director of the troop 

took fifteen minutes and resulted in 

no election, and Scout Skow was ap 

pointed till further notice. The roll 

call was then taken. 

A motion was made and passed 

that the next meeting be held nex 

Thursday, October 4, as the attend 

ance would be small if it were held 

on Tuesday owing to the Darn 

Dance at the Kplseopnl Church held 

on that date.

team the victors by a difference oi 

twenty-five seconds. 

A get of boxing gloves found iise 

vt nearly all present. The match o 

all wag the one between Stader and 

Waterman.. It was a real slugging 

match. When it ended each were 

about even. 

Scouts J. Parker and Lambertso:i 

had the gloves for a round and it 

was full of excitement, both receiving 

a number of good punches. 

Who was so kind as to put the 

light out before every one was out 

of the church as we were leaving? 

The troop had twenty-four and

Parade on tho eighteenth under the 

leaderships' of Waterman and E

of slfafs flowing softly down over his

Some times these whiskers were musty

nestle in among the tender tendrils.

could beat the wild crow cawing 

through them when he got excited 

during an argument He could make 

those tender vines'tremble and quiver 

in good old fashioned sob style stuff, 

-While he told us, how he had rested 

his weary head upon the lap of Mother

battle. He warbled through those 

whiskers many a dire prophesy of 

destruction to our national life, if we 

-did not also elect General Grant for 

a third term and when the nomination 

was not forthcoming, those 

whiskers drooped in honor of the oc- 

casion. But they bristled bravely up 

again after the loan of a quarter and 

the country still lives though he is 

dead. 

Uncle John wore a big soft black 

eloueh hat, a trick hat which old time 

frauds effected when they posed as a 

post, senator and tragedian. When 

Uncle John wore this hat it covered 

. • wide expanse of ivory and a narrow 

fringe of hair. 

Uncle John talked like a iarret 

and thought and thought like a ciaifT 

He knew a lot of important things: 

He knew the starch content of pota-

and the iron content of spinach. He 

knew "Coin's" little books on "free

from William Jennings Bryan's 18 to

being, it is said. The plans, after 

a certain amount of dirt has been 

placed on the fill, call for a period of 

a year or so to be allowed before the 

work is finished, the delay being 

counted upon to allow the fill to 

settle to its permanent level before 

being ready for the finishing touches.

William J. O'Toole, manager of the 

Sacred Heart Baseball club, has announced 

that he will prosecute the 

persona responsible for thefts and 

misdemeanors at the Sacred Heart 

ball park recently. After several 

days of investigating the local manager 

has found out who the person 

i s that recently dug- up and then took 

home the two posts uaad to bold up 

the score board. Before he is exposed 

to the public and brought to 

the local court, O'Toole says the 

guilty one will be given a chance to 

return the posts. Mr. O'Toole states 

he will give the man a few days to 

think the matter over and then act. 

This is not the first theft that has 

occurred at the ball park. Gloves, 

bats and balls, etc., are missed near- 

ly every Sunday. But this is the 

work of children and when men of 

mature age wilfully break the backstop 

and cart away the timbers it is 

time something should be done to 

stop it, the members of the club are 

agreed.

To Give Better Service to 

Electric and GasCustomers 

New System of Meter Reading, Bill Delivering, and 

Accounting to be put into effect by Public Service 

—WiU Be Started in Newark District October 1st 

and Extended Gradually to Other Districts Served by 

Company During November, December and January. 

Will Promote Convenience; Prevent Delays 

Now all meters are read the 

latter part of each month. It 

is proposed to distribute this 

work, tog-ether with billing and 

accounting, evenly, throughout 

the whole month. Thus more 

attention can be given in individual 

cases, where necessary, 

congestion will be avoided and 

customers' time will be saved. 

Under the new plan, customers 

will receive their, bills monthly 

within a few days^—instead of 

ten days or two weeks—after 

meters are read, thus enabling 

them to keep a closer check on 

consumption of electricity and 

gas, and make more timely 

comparisons of bills with their 

household or business budget. 

With More Than a Million Electric and 

Gas Customers, New Plan is Necessary 

A feature of the new system that will appeal 

to many customers who use both gas and 

electricity on the same premises win be the 

use of a. single itemized bill, instead of two 

bills each month as at present, to cover the 

two services. 

The change will involve certain variations in 

the delivery date of bills, according to the 

routes on which customers are located; also 

in the period covered by the bills rendered 

during the month in which die change is 

made. 

Customers whose accounts are to be transferred 

to the new system in October, instead 

of receiving their September bills between 

the first and sixth days of October as ordinarily, 

will receive their bills for September 

consumption in September, within a few 

days after their meters are read. 

October bills for such customers will be rendered 

at various dates in October, depending 

on the dates meters are read under the 

new system. 

Aa a result of the process p of readjustment, 

approximately one-h -half of the October bills 

will cover a period of less than one month, 

about oiM-third will cover a period of one 

month, and the balance, or one sixth of this 

bills, will cover a period of more than one 

month. 

AH subsequent bills; after the readjustment 

is made, will cover a period of one month 

each; they will be delivered within a few 

days after readings are taken each month 

and oil approximately the same date every 

month. 

Customer accounts to be transferred to the 

new system in November, December or January 

will be affected similarly to those 

transferred in October, with allowance 

made for the difference in time of the transaction. 

Advance notice of the month in 

which the change is to be made in specific 

districts will be given to customers in the 

form of announcements attached to bills. 

Our desire at all times is to furnish the beat possible service to our customers. 

The adoption of this proposed new system is in keeping with that 

policy. Although upwards of one million separate accounts must be 

handled, we are preparing to make the change with a minimum of confusion 

or trouble to customers and to that end we respectfully ask the indulgence 

and co-operation of those whom we serve.

ETERNIT 

THE IDEAL SHINGLE 

When you consider the Eternit Asbestos Shingle 

from |he standpoints of durability, safety and 

beauty, you will understand that is the ideal shin- 

First, an Eternit roof is permanent. Eternit 

Asbestos Shinglda properly applied require no 

further attention either for maintenance or replacement; 

They never wear out. Your first cost 

is the only cost. . 

Second, an Eternit roof is fire-proof. Flying 

brands from near-by conflagrations cannot kindle 

the roof to flames. The materials which are used 

to make Eternit Asbestos Shingles—Portland Cenie'nt 

and Asbestos Fibre, are fire-proof. 

Third, an Eternit roof is beautiful—yes, permanently 

beautiful v The three colors which are 

offered you—Indian Red, Gray and Blue-Black 

are built up through the entire shingle so that the 

color never wears off. There are styles of Eternit 

Asbestos Shingles for every type of architecture— 

styles that blend harmoniously with the landscape 

and surroundings. « 

Think of these qualities that make Eternit the 

ideal shingle. And when you come to settle the 

question of roofing for any type of building, big 

or small, you will without hestitation choose Eternit 

Asbestos Shingles. These can be placed over 

old shingles.

plan to make the hatching-egg distribution 

an annual factor in the 

game development campaign. 

Snce its introduction in New Jersey 

by the commission, several years 

ago, the ringneck pheasant has become 

well established and popular 

with hunters in every section. Thousands 

of the,, brilliantly plumaged 

cock pheasants are bagged by sportsmen 

every fall. The law protects the 

hen birds, thus retaining a breeding 

stock, which, with the continued restockng, 

has caused the pheasants to 

spread over constantly widening 

areas in every county. 

Pheasants distributed this summer 

have come from the game farms 

at Forked River and Hacketteown 

and the branch farm at High Point 

Park. Great care was used in handling 

the birds from the farm to the 

woods, wardens taking in each allotment 

only such pheasants as they 

could release before nightfall. Vigorous 

and healthy when released, the 

birds, says Duncan Dunn, superintendent 

of the. game farms, will be 

in line feaher and wild enough to 

suit any hunter when the shooting 

season opens.
