 HEED LAWS or STATE
 The press of tho state is cooperating with the state fish and game commission in refreshing the memories of the trout fishermen, and it may be well for all con- cerned to remember that the Iaxs Eoe- erning the taking of trout, like other game laws in general. are designed for the prop CT protection of the fish. They are in- tended to provide good soort within the confines of the state, b,t at the same time guard against the extinction of the sev- eral species. The deputies in all Co1nec- ticut counties have been inEtructed to vigorously enforce the state statutes, and trouble may be avoided hy cooperating with the officials wlrose duties are Of a purely ministerial character. The prori- slons Of chapter fS1 of the general s;at- utes, governing the taking of trout read zs follows;
