this week, but what mail was re-
ceived revealed some good sport for
both the hunters and the anglers
who can take it. In the northern
or Lake region Of the state it has
turned very cold and most of the
lakes are frozen. If the cold weather
continues, the fishermen who enjoy
fishing through the ice soon will
have their innings.
Warden Eaton reports from War
saw that there has been a nice fall
Of snow in that part Of the state,
and the hunters are getting quite
a few rabbits. The rabbits are thick
in all sections and the quail also
are plentiful. The small lakes and
most of the large ones are frozen
ind the streams are in a normal
condition. The freeze on the lakes
has stopped the Cisco fishing. but
If a thaw comes it will be resumed.
From Logansport Warden Imhoff
reports that the streams are low,
clear, and frozen solid in many
places. Hunting has been good since
the arrival Of snow and many rab-
bits are being taken.
Warden Anderson reports from
Boone, Clinton and Hamilton coun-
ties that the streams are frozen and
hunting is fair.
Wardens Kegrice and Mitchell re-
port from Madison that the streams
are clear and low and the crappie
are biting fine The quail are more
plentiful, hunters coming in with
better bags. The rabbits seem to
be scarce.
From Attica Warden Merideth re-
ports that the streams are clear
and in fine shape for fishing. Hunt
ing has been at a standstill
The crappie are hitting fine at
owen Park, fifty miles southwest of
this city on state road AZ. Ed Short
ridge has everything in rediness for
the angler or hunter and also
promises plenty of f1rewood if the
weather turns cold.
ConservationistS will have their
opportunity to listen to Seth Cor
don, president of the American
Game Association, if they attend
the meeting of the state conserva-
ton clubs at Purdue university JAN
10. Mr.. Gordon will talk on Con
servation, What It Means Today"
before the clubs at Fowler hall At
$50 p. m. Mr.. Gordon will be the
guest of honor at dinner in the
educational building.
A fox drive will hold the atten-
ton of the Knightstown Conserva-
ton Club Saturday. The club is an
aggressive organization of $50 mem
bers and as they are sponsoring the
drive, we suppose everything is o. k
and that the sentiment in their sec
ton of the state is in favor of this
type of sport. Complaints against
these drives have been made by
other clubs and individuals who
claim that they are stocking the
woods with fox, while others are
discriminating them. Of course,
there are two sides to all argu-
mentS, SO if you are for or against
the drives, write to Lefty Lee and
your version will be given full COW
erage. The meet at KnightStoWn
will get under way at a. m. and
firearms and dogs positively will be
forbidden. If any animals are
killed the pelts will be auctioned off
Immediately after the meet. Sand
wiches, pie and coffee will be avail
able at the center and at the point
Of the drive.
Arlie Crowley and Johnny Beam
were in the field Wednesday and
when they returned they stopped
at the house and now Lefty will be
eating rabbit. These boys found
five that came within range of their
guns, Crowley accounting for three
and Beam two. That guy" Beam
always is good for laugh and this
trip was no exception. His state
ment that they would have had
their limit of quail had their dog
been able to run faster brought
