AMERICAN HUMANE
ASSOCIATION WORKS
FOR BETTER TRAPS
ALBANY, N. Y. — For the eighth
consecutive year The American Hu
mane Association of this city an
nounces its annual humane trap
contest which will close April 30,
1935. The contest is open to every
one and contestants are urged to
write the Association for further de
tails.
The judges, eminent men in the
field of conservation, will award qnc
prizes totalling five hundred dollars
Prizes of $150.00 and $75.00 will be
given for the best traps for taking
animals alive and unhurt. For
traps of the leg-gripping type, hold
ing without injury, the prizes will
be $100.00 and $50.00 and for traps
of the killing type the prizes are
$85.00 and $40.00.
It is not the purpose of the Asso
ciation to paralyze trapping, b_.t
rather to allot '.aie Ve suffering >_f
wild life. Humane traps are being
used by trappers to good advantage.
They find that unmarred peifcj art
more easily mark .‘table and tor ani
mals tripped for the purpose of po
pogation the alive and unhurt type
of trap is invaluable.
Legislators and conservation bod
ies throughout the country are co
operating with this movement. They
realize that not only does the wild
life merit consideration but that
from a commercial standpoint the
pelts themselves assume an increas
ed value through the use of humane
trapping.
For this leaso.i the Association
favors the alive and unhurt type of
trap. The trap itself is easily car
red and when the animal it taken
the pelt is un.narred !■/ the vicious
jaws of the steei trap. By this meth
od there ii no useless killing of un
wanted aoima's.
Get your trap ready now and write
*he Association for an entry blank
and further particulars.

PROFIT IN GOLD
DREDGE WORK
SAN FRANCISCO —The net pro
fit for August reported by the Na
tomas Company amounted to $82,
593 after depreciation and provi
sion for income taxes. The July pro
fit was $737,300 and the June profit
$82,945, similarly figured. The Aug
ust profit brought the total- for the
first eight months of 1934 to $610,
947, or equivalent to 61c a share.
The stock is on a 60c yearly divid
end basis.
Natomas operates six dredges in
Sacramento county, California and
recently acquired a substantial in
terest in a property in Merced coun
ty where a dredge is to be construct
ed. In addtion the company has un
der construction a new and larger
dredge to operate • in Sacramento
county, which is expected to in
crease dredging capacity 4,000,000
yards yearly. In 1933 the company
handled about 18,000,000 yards of
gold-bearing gravel.
Natomas is also reported to have
near completion a transaction fot
purchase of the Cole-Kirchen and
Donald placer mines near Manhat
tan, Nev.
During recent years the com
pany's costs per yaitl of earth hand
led have steadily declined, the aver
age of 4.37c a yard for 1933 being
1.24c under the 1930 average of 5.
61c. This factor, in connection with
the increased price paid for gold,
makes it possible to dredge lands
which could not be worked profit
ably at previous levels of costs and
returns.

TEXAS CHAMBER NOW
PUSHING PLAN DIVIDE
THE STATE OF TEXAS
VICE PRESIDENT SILENT ON
MOVE AS ARGUMENTS
ARE PRESENTED
- *
AUSTIN, Tex. — Division of Tex
as, biggest state in the Union, again
is under lively discussion. Vice Pres
ident John N. Garner, original ad
vocate of dividing Texas, is silent
now, but the West Texas Chamber
of Commerce has presented argu
ments, for and against, in its official
publication.
Legally the division is possible
and may be accomplished with sim
plicity. Practically no one expects
it within a quarter of century at the
least. t
. When the giant state, four times
bigger than all New England, was
admitted to the Union, there was a
provision that new States not ex
ceeding four may with the consent
of Texas be fashioned out of the ter
ritory and be entitled to admission.
Present agitation -is merely for
creation of one new state to be
known as “West Texas."
As Vice President Garner ex
plains the situation, this can be
done merely by act of the legisla
ture. The difficulty will be to get a
majority of the legislature favor
able to the division.
Any dividing line separating the
state into East and West portions
naturally have the 100th ■ Meridcian
as it northern starting point. That
is the Meridian that separates the
Texas Panhandle from Oklahoma.
Extended through the stte the Meri
dian strikes the Rio Grande west of
Laredo. Used as a dividing line it
would place only about a third of
the area of Texas in “West Texas.”
The western territory would have
only about 15 members of the Tex
as House of Representatives and
three Senators or one-tenth, instead
g
of one-half, of the votes.
