STATE LAWS. 



iiiijll The following digest of the laws of the various States relates 



chiefly to the transportation and sale of game. Sections which con- 

 tain proliibitioiis against transportation and sale ^merely during close 

 seasons are omitted, since they are so common that their repetition 

 seems unnecessary. Hence no extracts will be found from the laws 

 of the District of Columbia, Georgia, Kentuckj^, Louisiana, Missis- 

 sippi, Missouri, Nebraska, or Virginia. As a rule the statutes are 

 quoted verbatim, but in some cases abstracts only are given, and 

 these are placed in brackets.
