time under the law of 1899, and that nc
person has legal right to take more
than 20 white perch In one day from the
lake itself. He is on the track OF some
persons who are reported to have taken
so or more perch in one day. He is also
on the track of certain parties who have
taken large quantities of small perch
with dip net to be used for bait. Mr..
Clark says he has given sufficient notice
and proposes to stop this practice. All
he wants is for the practice to cease
If it does not he will do his best tO
enforce the law against persons engaged
therein. He says Hayden lake might be
one of the best trout lakes in the state il
people would let the tributary streams
alone.
