SURFACE HITS SUPERSTITIONS Says 1 hat Stuff About Moving (-ats and Having Misfortune Is Buncombe State Zoologist Surface is crusading against superstitions. "There is noth- j ing more cruel and unjust to both cats j and birds than the absurd and super- j stitious notion, that to move a cat! brings bad luck,'" he declared to-day. i "The moving season is at hand.' Through the very foolish and super-! stltious notion about the possibility I of bad luck due to moving the cat, j the faithful house cat, or her kittens, may be deserted. Under such condi-' lions she starves and is forced to be-! come half wild, and is liable to be a destroyei of birds.

"We have already seen this year several examples of persons moving and leaving their cats behind. In some cases other tenants were not to fol ! low soon, and the cats have nearly died of starvation. In other cases where the new tenants are to come soon to the premises, the cats are un familiar with these newcomers, and 1 if they act shy, it is too often taken for granted that they are too wild, too tinjid or too ferocious to be de j sirable in the new home, and hence I they are stoned, dogged and perse j cuted. The fate of the cat at moving s time is very serious. There is no rea | son whatever why the faithful house 1 cat should not be either taken al<Aig J when moving, the same as the dog, |or be mercifully killed, rather than 'permitted to starve and run wild. If 'the fundamental principles of decency | and humanity do not prompt persons i to give proper heed to their cats when moving, this indeed becomes a fit <sub ! .iect for the attention of that worthy organization known as the society for | Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. 1 There should be a branch of this so i ciety in each county of the State. ' Those persons who have no conscience I should at least be made to observe -1 the law concerning cruelty or the in fliction of pain upon the lowly crea •l tures. In most localities in this State : officers of this society are available, s! and can be learned by making inquiry - of local policemen. '' "Aside from the feature of humane ' treatment of the cat, this subject has 3: a very important economical bearing - ] upon the preservation of our birds. 1 i As the birds roost in trees and the cats 1 i are climbers, they can readily become . i the chief enemies of our feathered - friends at this time of year. One cat 2 has been known to destroy eighty - birds within a year. This means the r j removal of the natural control of ■ 1 more insect pests than would be re ' | quired to destroy practically all the ; farm crops and fruits of any farmer . or fruit grower in the State. Let the ' cats be preserved and fed, the birds f saved, the insects destroyed and bet ter and cheaper crops produced." I | i | HE BELIEVES IX ADVERTISING :l , I What faith in advertising, put to the _ | test and perslsteptly followed, will ac complish is strikingly exemplified in , the. case of Gen. J. S. Carr, of Dur-' 1 ham, X. C. In twenty-five years Gen. i Carr has built up a fortune of $4,000,- | 000 from an initial investment of $12,- 1000 —and built it up by advertising. I Gen. Carr invested his capital in the manufacture of a particular brand of tobacco and depended on newspaper advertising and his trade mark to build up his business. How he views the value of newspaper advertising is told by himself in these words: "When I signed my first advertising contract for $250,000 I didn't sleep for a week. I thought I was ruined. But the results justified the expendi ture and soon I was spending $500,000 a year for advertising. The biggest part of it went to the newspapers, for I had learned that the newspaper ad is the best in the world. There is no line of business that it does not help. "I was in the banking business and I built up as much trade as my two nearest competitors combined by newspaper advertising. My four boys are the biggest hosiery manufacturers in the country, and they have relied on newspaper advertising to make their success. The lirst thing, of i course, is to have the goods, but after that you must make your goods | known." ENGAGEMENT ANXOUNCED Mechanicsfrurg, Pa., April s.—An- j nouncement is made by Mrs. Sue Rarnhart of Greencastle of the en-! gagement of her daughter, Miss Mary Barnhart, to George C.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH LOSS OF SHEEP IS GROWING SERIOUS Figures Compiled by the State, Department Officials Show Extent of Ravages I Details of the official figures collect ed by tlie Bureau of Statistics of the j Department of Agriculture show that ' |i' lere are assessed in the boroughs and r townships of the State 263,511 dogs. ■ | This total does not include the dogs in • j Lebanon, Lehigh, Philadelphia and • | Susquehanna counties. In Lehigh and, ij Lebanon counties the commissioners the dog assessment and tax ■ act and Susquehanna county is work ing under a special act whereby each! | township and borough collects its own j dog tax and pays the damages. No report was made from Philadelphia 11 county. . As it is impossible for the assessors to make return on all the dogs in the I boroughs and townships, it is estimat ed that twenty-live per cent, of the I dogs are missed and that the total | figures of dogs in the State that are | liable for assessment in boroughs and 'townships will reach close to the . 400,000 mark. Officials of the De-! ■ partment of Agriculture estimate that I • | with the dogs in the cities which are j 11 assessed and licensed under special: ijacts. there are over 1,000,000 dogs in i | Pennsylvania. The total amount of dog tax collect-! . ed in the boroughs and townships dur- i , ling 1915 was $135,278.70. Figures [ I CARTER'S A Healtky i WJvER S __Genuine bears Signature 1 ~' I show that the taxes are highest in J Greene, Mercer and Washington coun- j ties where a large number of sheep are f yearly killed and injured. In the former two counties the tax is $2.00 j for each male dog and $4.00 for fe | male dogs while in Washington coun ty the tax in $1.50 for males and $3.00 for females. The general average in (sheep raising counties is SI.OO and $2.00, although some counties have a| .rate as low as 15 and 25 cents. In a number of counties of counties the dog tax collected did not pay for the dam-j ages allowed for the killing and in-1 jury to sheep and the dog license | plates. There were 3,330 unlicensed dogs killed by the direction of the county i officials with Westmoreland officials especially active in carrying out the j provisions of the recent act of tho leg- 1 isture by having 1,052 dogs killed. In '< addition to the damages paid for the; sheep killing it cost the counties $4,- <502.41 for payment in cases where horses or other animals were bitten | by mad dogs. Some of the amount of taxes col-j lected by the various counties were: ' Washington, $7,058.00; Westmoreland, ! $6,807.35; Mercer, $6,081.58; Erie,! i $5,362.85; Allegheny, $5,258.10. The) J high amounts paid for the killing and i injury to sheep were Washington, SB,- 056.70; Mercer, $3,908.75; Greene, $3,-1 465.40; Tioga. $3,402.70; Bradford,! $2,837.37 and Crawford, $2,741.50. j ODD FELLOWS INSTALL OFFICERS j Mechanicsburg Pa., April 5.
