Michigan has law for the protection
of fish in her inland waters, but the peo'
pie have so long been accustomed to the
wholesale slaughter of the fnny tribe
that violations Of the law are numerous.
The Canadians have been handling the
matter Systematically for some time, and
her rivers and lakes are plen tifully sup
piled with fish. The trout streams have
been kept from impurities, and unlaw-
full fishing is seldom known. The com.
missioners of fisheries have recently sug-
gested that the salmon in different rivers
are too numerous, and that means
should be taken to lessen them. Since
1868 the salmon fishing in the province
of Quebec has yielded an increase of
nearly 800 per cent. The vast increase
throughput the entire dominion is simply
due to wise inspection and discriminate
fishing Lansing Republican.
