GOSHAWK BOUNTY
Birds of Prey Multiply.-De' crease of Partridge Alarms
 Department.

During 1926 and 1927 there was an unprecedented influx of goshawks into this state from the north. This bird of prey makes war on rufficd grouse. or as more commonly known, partridge The seriousness of the situation led to the offer of bounty of S3 each for these birds by the State Board of Fisheries and Game
 l. has become apparent that gos- hawks have been breeding in this state the past summer and are still proving on the depleted stock of part ridge. For this reason fund has been put at the disposal of the com mission and the offer of the s3 bounty has heen renewed.
 How To Get Reward
 The specimen should he heavily spiinkled with table salt rubbed into the feathers, then strongly wrapped in paper or enclosed in pasteboard box Within the package should bt an identification slip of paper writ ten in. pencil with the name and ad. dress of the person killing the bird stating where killed and any other particulars. such as the kind of prey If any-it was pursuing when shot If more convenient to deliver the bird to a warden or deputy warden the same particulars should be giver to him and he will see that it is de l livered to the office of the Commis sion. Packages should be plainly ad l dressed on the outside to the Stat, Board of Fisheries and Game, Stat, Capitol, Hartford. Conn. Upon re eeipt of the bird at the office, eheel will be mailed Co the person named on the inside identification slip. Ship pers should furnish ample proof tha the birds killed were within confines of this state.
