OBSERVE FEDERAL and
STATE GAME LAWS
To Avoid Violations, Shooting Must
Be Confined to The Time During
Which il is Not Prohibited by Eth
er Set of Regulations.

Washington. d. c.. Sept. 16-ln
making their plans to shoot migra-
| tory waterfowl, hunters Will do we'll
to note the dates of open seasons I'M
der both Federal and State laws.
This caution by the United States De-
/ partment of Agriculture results from
evidence of confusion in the minds
/ of some sportsmen in regard to the
opening of the season when the dates
conflict under State and Federal laws
| The Federal law and regulations
| limit the seasons before and after
which no one may shoot these birds.
| If State law opens the season later
or closes it earlier than the dates
prescribed by the Federal regulations
the season in that State is just so
| much further shortened. Special at
tention is called to the fact that the
| Federal regulations do not authorize
any one to hunt OF kill migratory
birds contrary to the State law.
In certain States, as for example,
Illinois. Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
lucky, Missouri, and South Dakota,
the season for shooting migratory
waterfowl under the State law would
open prior to the date of opening
under the Federal regulations were
it not for the fact that the Federal
regulations supersede State laws in
such case of conflict and prescribe
for these States September Is as the
beginning of the open season.
