already in the Kankakee region. and a
good many geese, too. But Indiana
hunters are not allowed to hunt very
much. Most all of the swamp land in
Jasper County has been leased for
hunting purposes to Chicago clubs. The
Diana Gun Club. the Valley Gun Club
and the Capital Gun Club hold leases
for almost every acre of swamp land
from central Newton County to the
Stark County line, in many instances
on both sides of the river. Local hunt
ers in past years have disregarded
these leases to great extent and hunt
ed about where they pleased, but this
year these clubs have hired active pri-
vate game wardens, with instructions

hunters do not take out licenses to
hunt in Indiana, and are themselves
liable to fines.
