Want Change in Game Law. 
The Northeast Missouri Hunters’ Association was 
formed at Hannibal recently to circulate petitions for 
the repeal of the Federal law, which prohibits spring 
duck shooting on voters of this section. Hunters object 
to the provision that the closed season shall begin 
January i. 
The Missouri state law gives an open season until 
May i. The spring shooting always is more satifactory 
than fall shooting because the water is much better. It is 
argued there is little protection in the law for ducks, 
as the limitations do not cover southern territory. 
Stocking Game Preserve. 
A shipment of Hungarian partridges from the state 
game farm at Des Moines, la., to the new game pre¬ 
serve near St. Ansgar was made recently. The work 
of stocking 'the many game preserves all over the state 
has begun and the preserve at St. Ansgar will receive 
many different kinds of game birds. 
Preserves for Water Fowl. 
The Illinois Valley Hunters’ and Fishermen’s Associa¬ 
tion has addressed a letter to the sportsmen of Illinois 
expressing sympathy with the aims of the Federal game 
law, and urging the legislature to pass a bill creating 
game reserves of all available swamp lands in the state 
for the propagation of water fowl. 
Trout Season Opens With Ice. 
Lumbermen from Hamilton county, north of Glovers- 
ville, N. Y., reported that from two to five feet of snow 
covered the lower section of the Adirondacks and that 
the lake trout season opened with ice in lakes where 
these fish thrive from two to three feet thick. The law 
prohibits fishing through the ice in waters inhabited by 
trout. - 
1913 Greatest in Exploration. 
Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn, president of the 
American Museum of Natural History, declared recently 
that the last year has been the greatest in exploration 
in history of the institution. Twenty-three expeditions, 
he -said, covering a range of operations extending from 
the Arctic to the Antarctic Ocean, and to many sections 
of North and South America and Africa, had been in 
the field. 
To Test State Fish Law. 
Arrested for fishing in the Carquinez straits without 
a license, a Solano county (Cal.) fisherman brought suit 
before the third district court of appeals to test the 
constitutionality of the commercial and sportsmen fishing 
license laws enacted at the last legislature. He made 
application to the appellate court for a writ of habeas 
corpus, basing his right on -the ground there is nothing 
in the state constitution giving the legislature the right 
to levy -a license. 
Wyoming Hatchery Well Stocked. 
Superintendent John Bailie, of the Wyoming state fish 
hatchery -reported recently that he had about 700,000 
brook and brown trout hatched. Mr. Bailie was confident 
that he would have at least 1,500,000 fish to distribute 
when 'the season arrived for placing the fish in the 
streams. 
Government Ownership Abandoned. 
The Federal government plans to go out of the rein¬ 
deer business in Alaska as fast as it can train Alaskans 
for individual ownership, the policy being to encourage 
independence and initiative among the native population, 
according to a statement made by the Bureau of Educa¬ 
tion. Distribution of reindeer is in charge of American 
school teachers, and it is expected that the Government 
will dispose of all -its reindeer within the next four 
years. The Alaskan reindeers are increasing in -number, 
despite reports to -the contrary, it is -stated. Latest avail¬ 
able figures show that on June 30 last there were 47,266 
reindeer in 'the -sixty-two Alaskan herds, a net increase 
of 23 per cent, during the fiscal year. Of this -number 
the government owns 3,833, the remainder, valued -at 
$763,300, belong to the natives. 
Distributing a Million Trout. 
A. S. Keesecker, superintendent of the fish hatchery 
near Erwin, Tenn., recently prepared to send out 1,000,000 
rainbow and brook trout. This has been in operation 
about fifteen years. 
Each year about 1,000,000 trout have been sent out to 
the streams of East Tennessee, Western North Carolina 
and Southwest Virginia. Mr. Keesecker has had charge 
for thirteen years.
