Fishing Permits For
1856 Received By
Clerk Y. Morgareidge

The new 1856 fishing license
were received in Caldwell last
week according to Violet Morgan
edge, fishing license dealer in
this community. They will be
ready to go on sale by March /,
the deadline for the new license
to become effective.
Liberalized fishing will still be
in effect during 1856 which
means there is no closed season,
no legal length and no bag or
possession limit on any species.
This ruling, however, does not
apply to Pymatuning Lake in the
northern part of the state.
Both license dealers and fish
erman will notice a radical
change in the form of the new
license. The Ohio Wildlife Coun-
Gil ordered the change in the
form, which will eliminate con-
Siderable writing, on the part oi
the dealer and, it is hoped will
prove more satisfactory in other
operations.
The resident license will cost
$500 plus the 25 cents writing
fee; which is the same as last
year; the annual nonresident
license will be $500 plus 25 cents
writing fee, an increase of $2.0C
over that of last year, and the
temporary ten-day nonresident
license will cost $500 plus q
cents fee, an increase of $2.0(
over that of the previous year
