 and wolves? — B. R. H.

 tion to the bounty paid by the county in which the animal is killed. 



Q. I would like to get two dozen mountain quail from the state 

 game farm to send back to my brother in Iowa. How shall I go about 

 it?— A. H. 



A. The State Game Department does not raise its birds for dis- 

 tribution outside of this state. There is no way you can get them 

 from the state for this purpose. 



Q. What proportion of the license money does the county get? — a. T. 



A. The county which issues the license gets five per cent of the 

 license money. This will cut the game protection fund about five thou- 

 sand dollars this year as this provision was passed by the last legis- 

 lature.
