More News for the Trapper.

A bill has already been passed in
the House and will, in all probability,
he passed in the Senate also, repeating
the present Louisiana law which re-
quires trapper to take out Dealers
License costing $25 before he can ship
his own catch outside of the state of
Louisiana.
We are assured that House Bill No.
so will be passed in the Senate in the
next few days and the $50 Dealer
License will be thing Of the past so
far as the trapper is concerned. You
will still have to pay the State Sever
ance Tax Of two per cent based upon
the value of the furs and for the time
being, it will be necessary for you to
write the Conservation Commission,
Baton Rouge, whenever you want to
ship furs telling them the number of
skins, also each kind and the commits
sion will then tell you what the tax
amounts to and how it should be paid.
They will also furnish you with a
Special License Tag authorizing you
to ship the furs outside Of the state.
Irappers in Louisiana are required
to take out trapping license costing
81 and pay the state tax of two per
cent based on the value of their furs
but with the passage of House Bill No.
so above referred to, the trapper will
no longer have to pay the $25 Dealer
License to ship his furs to a market
out Of the state where he can get the
real value Of his catch, to which Sena-
tor w. J. Johnston, who is now attend
ing legislature. refers to in letter
addressed to citizen of Plain Dealing /:
Baton Rouge, La, Oct. 10, 1921.
Dear Sir: The bill you are wanting
to know about has been SO written
that the trapper can ship his furs out
of the state. without having licenses
as the license is only on the dealer
but the shipper will have to put the
red tag on his shipments as before.
l will take the matter up about the
tags with the Conservation Commits
sion and have them send you some.
Yours truly,
w. J. JOHNSTON.
Mr.. NJ L. Alexander, Commissioner
OF Conservation, states that 1.-THE only
amendment in the law is to permit the
individual trapper to ship his own furs
within the state or out Of the state
without the payment Of the Dealers
License, as provided in the Act Of 1920.
However, the trapper shipping his own
furs will be required to pay the two
per cent tax to the Department of Con-
servation
No one will be permitted to ship
furs unless the furs are tagged with
the official tag Of the Department of
Conservation. These tags can be had
upon application to the department or
any Of its local agents. The red tag
is for out-of-state shipments and the
white tag for shipments within the
state. We are now preparing circulars
and bulletins to be sent out as soon as
the present act is finally passed, and
Your local express agent will be fully
posted
