CANNOT KILL QUAIL.
Season is Closed on This Game Bird
Until 1915.

1t has just been found out that
the special session of the legislature
held last spring passed a law pro-
tecting quail in this state until 1915.
This amendment is not in the pub
lished laws, but is being sent out in
the special posters from the state
game warden's office. Deputy Game
Warden G. Allen Smith has told
some inquirers that there was an
open season on quail this year, as he
could not find anything in his books.
He, however, retracts what he told
them and calls their attention to the
new law, which states that it is un-
lawful to hunt Mongolian pheasant,
black fowl, capercailzie, hazel grouse,
quail and wild turkey until 1915
Hunters who do not want to get into
court will therefore pay heed to this
change in the law.
