S. FULLERTON TALKS
ON GAME AND
FISH
Minnesota Woods and Lakes
Are Well Stocked With
Game This Year.

s. F. Fullerton, Minnesota state
game warden has been making tou,
including the lakes at Mentor and Be.
midi and when asked about the work
OF the fish commissioner relative to
these two summer resorts, he said:
BLACK bass are fast increasing and
there Is no doubt that since the sup
preston of their sale, they will con-
ttnue to increase. This year has been
poor year for the bass fisherman
on account of the high water and plen-
tifulness of the natural food.
Trout are also slowly increasing
and have every reason to predict that
with the present system of protection
maintained and strengthened there
will be fishing and hunting in Minne-
sofa when 1t has ceased to exist in
many other localities"
When quizzed about the bigger game
little farther east Mr.. Fullerton re-
piled:
1.-THE big game in Minnesota is i'll
creasing fast. There are more deer
and moose in Minnesota today than
there was five years ago. This seems
a rash statement to make but it is
none the less true. The reason is the
increased protection afforded them.
The lumbermen and the pot hunters
were the chief cause of the fall of the
deer and moose in this state. These
conditions are almost entirely elimina.
ted now as numbering in Minnesota is
fast disappearing and the arm of the
law Is now long enough to reach these
petty offenders. Besides people have
seemed to acquire a sense of shame.
as 1t were, and no longer consider the
game and fish commission as a huge
joke, but see it as force to be reck-
oned with If dfsobeyed. ~
Why few years ago it was posi-
lively dangerous for a game warden
to make an arrest. AS recently as
eight years ago a party of Indians
stabbed warden to death near Walk
er, for trying to put a stop to the
slaughter of the deer. Indeed, think
l may safely say that although Maine
is famed far and near as the Deer AMI
Moose state" there are today more
deer, moose and caribou in the state of
Minnesota than in Maine, and with
proper protection there will be good
hunting in Minnesota for all time"

AS SEEN AT CROOKsTON.
The Home Teams Version of the
Game on Sunday.

Crookston Journal: Notwithstand-
ing the fact that they got eleven hits
to the Forks six off of Lezie,
the Crooks turned the game over to
the Grand Forks Pickets yesterday
afternoon on the local field. The loss
of the game here. while it was good
one, for the grandstand is admittedly
due to soreheadedness that is creep
ing among the players and the fact
that clique has wedged in together
and displayed heady disposition.
The team that departed for Ada took
two and possibly three of the first
team men.
The game started with Fawcett's
hit through right, but was caught of
of first, Chandler took base on being
Kelliher's drive, Bank got down on
elders muff and Schumaker's drive
into center brought him home, one
run.
Handy, Martin and Brown singled,
Glider forced out Handy. An error at
Fawcett let Martin home one run. In
VIC Iuhu Shduulcl Wdlheu, Ddulh Sill
Fournet's wild throw to the plate.
Brown drove two Dagger into right
center deep, Glider took first and
Brown third on tumble at first. Nell
raith threw short to Alrick on a fin
esse and Brown came home close.
1t was in the third that Brown
made long run into the north fence
and hooked two Dagger out of the
fire as neat as any thing going.
In the sixth Bank was hit, Schu-
maker singled him to second, Carl
sons tumble at second let Alrick to
first, and Lezie hit w. Shannon, fore
ing Bank home, NJ. Shannon sacri-
feed, Schumacher scoring. Score 4
and favor Forks.
In the seventh Fawcett at short
made one of the finest catches of the
day and completed double at Sec
.ond.
In the ninth Bank took first on
Fournet's wild throw over first, Schu-
macher singled into right, Fourne,
failed to catch and Bank scored.
Stephens passed grounder of Nc
Ilraith's and Schumacher scored. The
Crooks got busy with Carlson's sin
gle into right. Shannon muffed fly
of Browns into right and Carlson
scored, Glider singled and Brown came
home. Final score, and 4 in favor
