LIST, and it will be some time in Sep-
TENDER before any more money comes
into the Game Fund, it will require
the very strictest economy in the in
teigening period, as has been in the
past, If we pull thru this year, with a
balance on the right side. Agreeable
to the orders of the Board I have re-
quired all deputies to keep down ex-
penses the past season as low as pos
sible, without preventing efficiency,
and have carefully scrutinized all ex-
pense accounts before giving same my
approval, but when it is considered
that in my district each deputy had
3 counties to cover, the expense is
necessarily heavy, especially the item
of livery, and as our work is almost
entirely in the country, this item is
sometimes most appalling, notwith-
standing our earnest attempts to hold
it at minimum. Deputies have some
times deferred going to certain points,
knowing full we'll that the expense
would in the majority of cases be un-
justified. am striving now to ar
range matters so that these out of the
way places will be thoroughly covered
next season.
The total revenue for this district
for the season of 1918 from all sources
is $18.268.55, and of this $16,447.85
goes to the state treasurer to be cred
tied to the Game Fund. Last season
the revenue for this district from all
sources was $13,758, which Melted the
Game Board, $12,382.20, and while the
gross increase in this district has been
$451O.55, the net increase to the game
fund has only been $4O65.65.
Licenses.
In this district there were issued 40
Non Resident licenses this season, as
compared with 80 in 1912.
Resident Licenses, 1882 issued in
1918, as against 1858 in 1912. These
figures are taken from the Auditors
reports but as the reports have not yet
been audited, they may vary little,
but not in any amount, which makes
the figures for 1913 practically cor
rect.
The following is the amount of IL
censes for 1918 as compared with 1912,
by counties, in each district, and you
will notice an increase in each dis
trict, and in counties where the most
work was done by deputies, you will
note the increase is larger, which I
think more thar substantiates my
claim that hard working deputies have
paid their way, and are the most prof
table, both to the Board and to the
hunter, for it is in these counties that
the most arrests were made, and the
most money paid into the school funds
out Of the fines collected.
Following is the record Of licenses

RESERVES and Refugees.
I would suggest that steps be taken
to place before the next Legislature
the urgent and growing need for the
esta blishment of permanent game
reserves, for the propogating and null
tiplying of game birds and deer, these
two more especially, and also the for
nation Of at least three refugees, in
this district The states around us,
and Manitoba to the north, have taken
advanced steps in this regard, and it
is wisely taken. The difference be-
tween the two is, that in a reserve,
steps may be taken to propagate and
increase, and in the latter it affords
Ia resting place and safety, especially
for wild ducks and geese for resting
and feeding while on their long jour-
ney to the south The absence of both
of these mean determination, in the
first instance, and in the latter it was
very noticeable that ducks and geese
were deserving their old haunts this
past season. Keeping game constant
~ on the wing has very injurious
effect on them and their own natural
instinct makes them seek safety, rest
and feed in different foreign localities.
In conclusion wish to thank the
Board Of Control for their undivided
interest and support during the past
season. can not help but feel en-
couraged from receiving this. l be-
lieve you are, each, striving to educate
the thinking public in the great neces-
'sity Of game protection and propoga-
ton. Legislation intelligently direct
ed along these lines, is indeed reform
Legislation and of such marked extent
that the national government has at
last recognized it by recent Federal
enactments. believe the policy OF
education, as directed by the present
Board of Game and Fish Control, is
having most beneficial results all over
the state There is certainly great
and growing need for strong and eff
ficient game laws, if we wish to pre-
serve a good source of food supply, as
well as protect the honest sportsman,
who annually takes his outing with
rod or gun. | believe this policy of
education is fast erasing from the
minds that erroneous idea which some
people still cling to, that the enforce
ment Of game laws merely provides
a political pork barrel for spend
'thrifts. That this mistaken idea is
fast fading is very evident is very evil
dent, Tor since the game has been pro-
'tected the past few years, certain in
creases in the supply are very notice

London, July .20.-There was some
extremely heated criticism today in
Unionist clubs of the contemplated
conference at Buckingham Palace be-
tween King George and the leaders of
the Liberal, Unionist, Nationalist and
Ulsterite parties on the Irish Home
Rule bill. Members of the Unionist par
ty expressed the view that their par

Prereier Asquith ct a moment when
through the House of Lords recon-
struetion of the amendment to the

The initiative for the conference was
taken by Premier Asquith and not by
King George, according to these Union
lists and the premier's only object was
to gain time and prevent a provisional
government in Ulster being constitut-
ed until after Parliament had ad-
jcuned, thus avoiding criticism of his
followers and possible defeat on divis-
ion. If the Premier can carry out this
plan, a prominent Unienist said today,
he probably can safely weather the po-
liticaI storm until Parliament is dis
