IglT Two facts should be considered
nrsi there was L smaller number of
hunters than usual due to war condi-
tons second, the weather conditions
were such, being warm and without
snow, that the herds were not broken
up and remained in the mountain
region.
The wardens have been active and
in most counties organized to do most
efficient work and be of greatest serv-
ice to sportsmen and the general pub
lie. In several counties our wardens
report a new spirit on the part of the
hunters both resident and non-resi-
dent. showing a desire ON their part
10 conform to the law. The warden
force consider 1t as much part of
their work to give information as to
prosecute for violations.
No accidents due to carelessness of
hunters have been reported. No COM
plants from landowners reporting
damage to live stock or property have
been filed. es
