GET No HUNTING PERMITS
Auditor Anderson Has Lay.Of On
This Score As Result Of the Hale
Spring Shooting Law.

There is no use making application
Of County Auditor Hans Anderson for
a hunting permit at this season of
the year. Spring shooting is thing
of the past in North Dakota, so save
your money till fall. when a special
invitation will be extended to the
sportsmen to call at the court house
and separate from their money.
There are possibly some Grand
Forks county sportsmen who. are not
aware that spring shooting was
abolished by the Eleventh legislature
assembly. The outline of the provi-
sions of the Hale game law has
been published in the Times. This
bill carried the emergency clause and
went into effect when signed by the
governor.
On account of the fact that no one
has any use for e. hunting license at
this season of the year. none will be
issued by Auditor Anderson. Tho
wardens have not been appointed or
