This was the decision reached yesterday at the conference between Harden Bennion, commissioner of agriculture; Harvey H. Cluff, attorney general, and D. K. Moffat, chief deputy state auditor. Some question arose recently regarding the power of the board of agriculture to go back to the affidavits accompanying the furs stating that they had been perpresented within the sixty-da- y iod allowed by law. The state auditor has taken the stand that, as guardian of the public funds, he should not allow bounties to be collected on pelts which have been taken from animals more than sixty days.

Those which the expert decides have been killed more than sixty days will be returned to the senders and prosecutions for perjury may follow.

The storm continued intermittently over Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon the snow increased until this section had its heaviest snow of the entire season.
