State Game Warden Withdraws Dog
Training Privilege in This County State
Game Warden Avirett, while at Towson on
Tuesday, investigating the arrangements made
there for the reception and distribution of the
Western quail purchased for Baltimore county
under the provisions of Chapter 542 of the Acts
of 1904 in Section g. found that the privilege
dod fn of q n
ton of Section of said act, was being much
abused and causing confusion, says the Balti-
more San.
This section forbids the running of dogs at
large during the closed season to pursue or kill
game and provides penalty. Permission was
asked for by number of owners of dogs to be
allowed to take their dogs to the field during
the closed season for the purpose of training
them. 1t was further requested that the train
ers be allowed to use blank shells to train the
young dogs to stand fire. These requests were
granted on the condition that no game be pur-
sued or frightened needlessly and the game
wardens of Baltimore county were so advised.
He has found, however, that this practice
works much harm and the privileges are there
fore withdrawn, and the deputy game wardens
and other officers charged with the enforce
ment of the game laws have been instructed
by him to enforce the provisions of Section 8
of the aforementioned act and deal with all
violators as provided for therein in the other
sections of the act regarding the closed season.
Col. Avirett said: Apart from the fright
ening of game and the impossibility of pre-
venting raw dogs from pursuing when in the
field the firing of blanks confuses the officers
and deters them from the hearty discharge of
their duties.
Several instances came to my notice in
which deputies, hearing the firing of blanks in
the closed season, had considerable trouble and
expense in going out to investigate to find only
some dog owner training his dogs to stand ire
under blank cartridges"
The new game law for Baltimore county has
realized considerable sum from licenses,
which has been expended for birds by the
Game Warden and leads to the belief that there
will be a ready compliance with the withdraw
al of the privileges stated above and that the
game supply will be rapidly increased.
The sections of Chapter 542 Acts of 1904,
referred to read as follows:
Section 8. Any owner who shall permit his
dog or dogs to run at large during the closed
season and pursue or kill game or destroy the
eggs, nests or young thereof, shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeandor and be subject to a
fine of SIS for each and every offense one-half
to go to the informer; or imprisonment in Jail
for five days, in the discretion of the court or
justice imposing the fine or sentence. Any
person who shall harbor or board any dog to
remain on or about his premises shall be deem
ed the owner of such dog for the purpose of
this section.
Section 8. All fees received by the Clerk of
the Circuit Court for license or by magistrate
or the court for fines, except the portion there
of payable to the informer shall be paid over
to the State Game Warden and be by him ex-
pended for the protection and increase of the
game birds in said county, provided that all
fines recovered on the prosecution by the State
Game Warden or the deputy game wardens
shall be payable to him or them, as provided
by Section s of Chapter 293 of the Acts of 1896.
