Game Laws Give Satisfaction.

That spring shooting of migrating
birds in Wisconsin has practically
stopped since the enactment Of the
federal prohibition; that the number
OF water fowl breeding in the state has
increased fully fifty per cent; and that
the principal water fowl so breeding
are mallard duck, blue wing teal
ducks, wood ducks, spoon bin ducks
and coot, are the conclusions of a
study OF reports to the conservation
commission made by game wardens
from all sections Of the state.
From the same reports it is gath
cred that in most sections of northern
Wisconsin deer are more plentiful
than in several years Because of the
cold weather and unfavorable breed
ing conditions the number of prairie
chickens and grouse is less in many
regions
The reports by the wardens we're
made particularly upon the effects of
the federal migratory bird law and
there is a general agreement among
the sixty replies that spring shooting
IN the state in violation of the law is
practically negligible
Wardens in those regions notable as
breeding places give most gratifying
replies. For instance, Warden F. d.
Randall, writing OF the region about
Waupaca, says: More water fowl,
Our marshes are fun Of ducks and
their young brood" Warden A. r.
Brunei of Fond du Lac says that
where you could see one pair of
ducks few years ago you now can
see twenty pair" That is a 1000 per
cent gain.
Experts say that the number of wa
ter fowl in Wisconsin is increasing
under the new restrictions and will
continue to increase from year to
year.
The department reports so arrests
so far in August. with 40 convictions
and one found not guilty. OF the 40
convictions 80 paid fines amounting TO
$l.405 and costs, six were released IN
der suspended sentences and 10 were
taken to higher courts on appeals.
