GAME HOGS ARE
ABROAD HE SAYS

4 A man told n representative OF this
paper the other day that he knew OF
two Hood River men going out from
the lakes during the present with
their car loaded with 100 Honker
geese. That's getting away with the
game birds pretty rapidly Or.
Fields had better have some one I'm
that vicinity looking after such game
hogs. II that's what the bird refuge
is for, to furnish such men with sport
and induce them to slaughter, he'd
better think again about the PROPOSE
ton OF interfering with legitimate
use of the water before II reaches the
lake for the purpose of increasing
production OF food supply.
There are not any two men In Har-
ney county who would be guilty OF
violating the game laws In any such
manner as the instance mentioned.
The same man said there were more
outside hunters In the vicinity OF the
lakes who were using the same meth
DDS OF slaughter.
