the main provisions: The close season for deer,
turkey, aud prairie-hens is left at Jan. to Aug.
Is, but that for partridge, pheasant, and wood
cock Is changed to Jan.l to Oct. l. The other
close seasons are rs follows: Quail, Feb. l to
Nov I; waterfowl, April Is to Sept. l; o]oyer,
May to Aug. Is; hares, March to Sept. !.
The penalty is raised from SO to S25 for each
offense, and the provision Is added that the Of
fender shall forfeit his gun, dogs, or other
equipments. Possession in the close season is
punished in the same way as killing: The pen
atty for trapping Is raised from SIS to 5l00.
The peculiar feature Of the bill Is that it pro-
vides for the appointment Of Game Constable
for each county with power to seize and
arrest without warrant. Another section pro-
hibIts the shooting Of any other birds than
pigeons from traps under penalty Of lmprison-
ment in the County Jail and hne of $3.50 for
each bird shot IT.

poses them and cooks them every day. and have
done SO right along. The partridge is also COM
