servation Is needed TO stimulate pub

greater cooperation, In the enforce
ment Of the game laws, Is the opin-
lon Of w. W. Boyd, state game, fish

"A great majority Of hunters wink
at the law the year round, and many
Of them, besides keeping their tables
supplied with game during the open
season, expect to put enough in cold
storage TO cover the closed season."
said commissioner Boyd.
1.-THE law permits cold storage OF
game for 10 days after the end OF the
season and the time limit on vonison
and certain other game Is now up.
Information comes TO the department
that this storage law Ia not being OBJ
served.

that this law Is going to be enforced,
