Most Fish Legal
After June Il
Duck Hunting Season This
Fall May be Heightened
to Forty-five Days.

The season for taking bass, crap
pies and sunfish opens in the northern
zone Tuesday, June 81, according to
Harry E. Speakes, director of the
division of game and fish.
This removes the last seasonal re-
striction in Minnesota, and all fish,
excepting sturgeon, which are pro-
tected at all times, then become legi-
innate game for anglers.
Attention is called to the report
feature on the Minnesota fishing Ii
cense this year, and fishermen are
urged to keep a record of fish taken
and make report at the end of the
season.
1.-THE purpose of the report is to
prepare data that will be helpful in
restocking lakes, and furnish a basis
for future department fish propaga-
ton activities" says Mr.. Speakes.
Duck Season May be Longer.
State Conservation Commissioner
Herman c. Wenzels proposal to rec
ommend change in the duck shoot
ing season this fall, for consideration
of the Federal government, was ap-
proved by the Association of Mid
west Fish and Game Commissioners
at its conference held in Omaha,
Nebr., on June 9.
The proposal provides that the
former 30-day season be extended
to As days, from October l to Novem-
Der IA, shooting to begin one-half
hour before sunrise until IL o'clock
noon, with a ten bird bag limit,
allowing not more than three red
heads or canvasbacks in said limit.
recommendations were also approved
that no live decoys or batting of
ducks be permitted.

Nick, small smiling. mustached

in their welfare and care. He was
one Of the die-hards in an era that
had suddenly gone modern. He had
worked for Mr.. Burgess a long
time, had been a faithful deliverer.
Now the truck came into being for

finally yielding to the demands that
trucks replace the horses, the old
cart was wheeled to its grave yard,
