The use of seines in the running
water of the Elkhorn river west of
Stanton county will not be permitted
by the state. This ruling has come
to light through an application made
by Fred Boche to use seines in the

his request will doubtless be granted,
for permission to seine the sloughs in
the vicinity of his farm, south of the
city. Under state license, accom-
panied by bond for 500, it is per-
MISSILE to seine for catfish, gar and
carp.
