In his report for the month OF Novem-
Der, which includes the entire open season
for deer, State Game Warden Osborne
says that the new license law which had
its first application last month, resulted
in great saving of game, but will not
result in putting much money into the
state treasury for the reason that very
few hunters from outside the state par
tlcipated in the sport this year. AS a
class, these latter, he says. are undesir-
able, and particularly were the undesir-
able ones driven elsewhere. The game
warden Of Wisconsin reports that the
high license in Michigan filed his state
with indiana and Ohio pot hunters who
have hitherto made Michigan their hunt
ing ground. Although the license law is
weak, so far as facility of enforcement
goes, Mr.. Osborne says it was observed
very generally by residents and non-resi-
dents, and is in his opinion good law
to keep on tae statute books.--Calumet
