FISH AND GAME.
/ State Warden John Sharp is mailing
/ to all the county fish and game war
dens in the state twenty copies of the
new fish and game law, printed in the
! form of a poster for the convenience
/ of those who receive them ard for
/ posting in the several counties in con-
4 spicuous places for reading by the
/ public. After offering some sugges-
tons as to the preservation of the
/ posters by having them pasted on the
/ back with cloth, the warden says:
'I wish to direct your attention to
/ some of the provisions in the law, viz:
1 Section provides that the county
wardens shall make detailed reports
of their official doings to the state
warden during the first week of De
cember of each year" In pursuance
! of this provision l would, respectfully
suggest that you carefully keep a de-
tailed memorandum or record of all
your official acts. so that You may
have no difficulty in making your de-
tailed report to the state warden, az
( his report to the legislature will be
largely made up from the county war.
dens' reports.
AS the open season for fishing with
hook and line begins July Is and is
near at hand. it would be well for yor
to give particular attention to section
ii Of the law. which makes it a felony
for any person to use giant powder
or any explosive substance. or any
quicklime, poisonous, deleterious or stu
pefying drug. etc. for the unlawful
taking or killing of fish. l believe tha
more fish are wantonly destroyed by
this barbarous and, lawless practice o.
a few persons than in any other unlaw
full manner of taking fish, and 1 woult
earnestly urge you to put forth grea
effort in having all violations of thi;
section of the law vigorously prose
cuted and punished.
81 believe that this practice is car
4 ried on during the open season more
than at any other time, and for thi:
reason / urge you to be vigilant in the
enforcement of the provisions of thi!
section. Do not overlook the provision:
for the protection of the game, as vel
as the fish. Please keep me posted OF
all matters relating to the fish ant
game of your county, and oblige."
