not enticed gunners to shoot them
In any appreciable numbers.
Unless sportsmen do shoot them
IN great numbers during the next
few years the supply of waterfowl
foods, such as wild celery, will be SO

OuTDOORs Wit. Bill. Aex....4p

Nearly 100 white marlin were
tagged and released off Ocean City,
Md, in 1943. 1t might be due to
the closing of this fishing area for
war reasons that none of those tags
have been returned to the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service.
Or it could be that the big fish did
not survive the rough handling.
Whatever the reason, this work
again should be taken up at the
earliest opportunity. 1t is only in
such a manner that we ever will
learn Of their life and migrations.
A theory long held by experts was
proved sound this year. 1t is that
sea trout, even though they may
travel hundreds of miles from their
spawning grounds, will return, pro-
viding they live three or more years.
Two were caught at Peconic Bay
that had been "abdomenally tagged"
more than five years previously.
Most intriguing to fishermen
would be the size and weight of these
fish. Unfortunately this data was
not included.
The crow question is foremost in
the minds of conservationists in
many sections. They know that in
areas where the black thieves are
too numerous all other wildlife suf-
fers and that on the Northern
breeding drastic measures must be
taken to check these marauders,
else our ducks and other waterfowl
will be destroyed before they emerge
from the egg.
Sportsmen have been asked to CO.
operate by shooting crows at every
but with shells so
scarce few will find it possible to
do so. Such releases of ammuni-
ton were made only to farmers.
