For the benefit of persons engag-

the following synopsis of the law

Ell; 1t is unlawful TO catch, kill or
have in possession apy mountain
or brook trout during the months
of November, December, January
February and March, or to take or
attempt to take such trout with any

That is the old law. The law pass
ed by the last legislature allows I
persons to catch and sell during
seven months as many trout rs
they can catch with the hook and
line. The new law makes il un-
lawful to sell, offer for sale, or have
in possession for sale, except dur
ing the months Of September and
October any Of the various kinds
of trout. The law goes into eflec,
90 days after the adjournment of
The Legislature tha, is ON the roth
