THE ONLY wAYTo DO 1T PREPARE FOR TOURISTS
Tri-State Conference Work
ing for Material Develop
ment of States.

Ii is significant that the Tri-
State Development congress which
is working for the material de
velopment of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, has unani-
mously followed the leadership of
the Wisconsin Game Protective
association in urging legislation
providing for a resident game fish
ing license fee.
The purpose is to raise money
imperatively needed to improve
fishing permanently by means
of intensive propagation, general,
systematic restocking of streams
and lakes and more efficient pro
lection.
During the second annual meet
ing of the congress, which was
held in Milwaukee, these points
were made in support of meas
ures to better the sport of ang-
ling:
/. 1t is sound public policy to
propagate and plant fry in order
to maintain an important source
of supply of food.
2. 1t is vital to public welfare
to maintain good fishing because
it is a means of inducing folks of
both sexes, young and old, to
spend some part of the year close
to nature, with benefit to their
own health and to the general
well being.
3. Unless good fishing is main
tanned, the tourist trade cannot
be increased in the measure that
is desired. No attraction that
surpasses it can be offered to the
tourist-to many thousands of
tourists no attraction that will
take its place is conceivable.
The situation is critical. Fish
ing is becoming poorer every
year. The muskellunge, for ex-
ample, is disappearing all too rap
idly. In many lakes and streams
good fishing of any kind is no
longer possible.
The remedy is plain. 1t is prac-
ticable, it is certain to meet the
situation, sure TO provide better
fishing.
More Matching facilities, much
more Matching, proper planting
and adequate planting will work
wonders.
And it is now done, done mad
equately. this work costs about
Sl50OO0 a year. At least twice
that sum should be spent-must
be spent to get the best results.
The fairest and most practicable
way to maintain and finance bet
ter angling is for anglers to pay
the expense of maintaining their
sport. The burden is now borne
by hunters, trappers and the like.
Anglers contribute nothing. Hun
ters resent this. Anglers who un-
derstand the situation irk under
IL. They declare that it is their
right as well as their duty to sup
port their own sport.-Milwaukee

Lake Region Villages Should
be in Readiness to House
Clean"

This is the time for Wisconsin
cities, towns and villages to begin
their housekeeping, says the Mil
waukee Journal. 1t is noticed
that in many localities sign boards
guides to camp sites and other
tourist insignia are broken, paint
and enamel are cracked and they
present a more or less dilapidated
appearance. Get busy and get all
such eyesores cured. This is GO
ing to be Wisconsin's banner tour

clean bill of sale in every respect
to our state visitors to whom we
are 10 sell Wisconsin scenery.
Along this line it may also be
mentioned that during the last
few years several Wisconsin cities
have changed their names. These
cities are known by one name on
all maps and by another on the
signs at their very portals. This
is a rather sad state of affairs and
shows that a spirit of lassitude
prevails in these localities. The
regular city limits signs should
not only be changed, but so should
all advertising signs relating to
concerns in these particular COM

We All Fall.

Sometimes it seems to US that
if our law-making bodies met
only once in about eight or ten
years living would be easier. We
are accommodating so many laws,
needful and otherwise, that soon
it will be necessary to have the
advise of a lawyer before under
taking the simplest business. Ev-
en- then the lawyer falls down
just the same as the ordinary
citizen, but of course he (the law
yer) always has an alibi.

AUTHORIZED THE ROAD
State Land Commissioners

Lincoln county, and Star Lake, vi

SAYS OLDLAW THE BEST
Conservation Commission AS
serts That Horned Buck
Law Should Be Put Back.

That the four inch horn law, re-
Gently repealed to substitute the
one year old buck law, should be
enacted is the opinion of Chair
man w. f. Barber of the state
conservation commission. MIR.
Barber believes that the four inch
horn law is the only safe line of
demarcation in distinguishing a
fawn from a year old deer.
There is no doubt in the minds
of the commission" said Mr.. Bar
Der, that we have plenty of deer
in Wisconsin and with a properly
observed buck law, deer hunting
will continue as long as we have
range and covers for the animals.
THE changing of the old law,
with horns 4 inches in length
could be taken, and providing
that bucks not less than one year
of age could be taken, caused a
great deal of confusion. The
four inch horn law should be Ie-
established. 1t is the only safe
line of demarcation, distinguish
ing a fawn from a year-old deer.
