 POO Hungarian Partridge. ..|
 Wilbur F. Smith, game warden for Fairfield County and special representa- tive of the Connecticut fish and game commission was in Canaan Monday in- vsstigating the situation regarding game in this vicinity in behalf of the oom- mission. The plan of distributing money raised by licensing hunters, which has been causing sportsmen throughout the state much concern, is explained by MT. Smith. He says that after various ex- periments the commission has decided to stock the state with Hungarian partridge, allotments of 200 being made to each county These birds will not be scattered about the county at random, however. The entire allotment will be placed upon a single tract of land which will be protected by law certain num- Der of years in order to give the birds an opportunity to propagate. A desirable tract of land is near Canaan and it is possible we may get the Litchfield County allotment of birds. In addition to the partridge there will be pheasants and quail. A decision will be reached in few days.
