 and for five days thereafter. 



Imported game: Sec. 19. Game and fish for general use may be imported from 

 states and territories Avhich do not prohibit the sale therein of game and fish from this 

 state. As at present advised, none of the western states or territories have laws of

 any state or territory. 



Sec 21. Before breaking bulk and exposing or offering imported game or fish for 

 sale (or before using, if intended for use by the person importing the same), the 

 above [an] invoice must be presented to the commissioner and an importation cer- 

 tificate procured as provided in the law, authorizing sale and use within the state. 



Sec. 22. An importation certificate is not a license to sell generally, but applies 

 only to the shipment for which obtained. A certificate must be obtained for each 

 shipment. For game or fish of kinds not protected by the law, no certificate is
