brought 70,000 people to Winona last sumn 
and if you will give us good fishing we will sy 
that amount to 100,000 people annually.” Tif 
recent reports show that they have alre 
reached the 100,000, have doubled that—and t 
some! This is only one of a number of sim 
character now existing in various parts of 
State, all of which are prospering and devel] 
ing rapidly. | 
Third—To distribute throughout the State 
finest varieties of game birds, animals and fis 
which can be’ imported from foreign countr} 
and to protect and increase the stock natural 
our State which, until a few years ago, 1} 
rapidly tending to depletion. About twer 
five years ago Hon. Caleb S. Denny, Minis} 
to China, sent a few pairs of Mongolian phe| 
ants to the State of Oregon, where they w} 
turned loose. They grew and multiplied, u 
now hundreds of thousands are killed every { 
affording a great food supply as well as a sou 
of pleasure to people of that State. The 
diana Game Commission has introduced th 
birds into our State. They are hardy, gc 
foragers, live well in our climate, and in brol} 
land where there is plenty of cover, thrive v|, 
rapidly. From all reports from deputies of 
the various parts of the State, it can be sai{k 
estimated that there are several thousand | 
these birds in Indiana, and, with proper prot) 
tion, they will become as plentiful as our qu 
Six or eight years ago Indiana’s stock of qtt 
was almost exhausted, but with the enforcem 
of our game laws that splendid bird is ag |, 
multiplying and there is reported this yeat|. 
larger stock of quail than there has been | 
several years. Squirrels also are more plent 
this year than they have been for years pi 
which is attributed to the shortening of the s 
son during which they can be killed and 
enforcement of the laws protecting them. 
The work of propagating both game and f| 
has been carried on to a considerable ext 
during the last two years. The State est} 
lished, three years ago, a hatchery for M«|: 
golian pheasants at Madison, Indiana, and {| 
first year it was quite successful, rearing seve 
hundred birds, which were sent through i 
State, and from which numerous reports he}, 
come, some of which are very encouraging a/ 
others not so much so. For reasons which\ 
is not necessary to mention here, the hatche; 
at Madison was a failure, and this year no bit), 
have been sent out. Arrangements have be| 
made, however, for the establishment of } 
hatchery in Jennings county, Indiana, and w| 
a better show of success in the future. \ 
In 1905 the State established two or thi!’ 
brooderies for black bass. A favorable site w| 
selected and screened off from the rest of t! 
lake and the spawn of the bass was collected | 
soon as hatched and placed in the broode 
where it would be free from the ravages of oth 
fish. In this way about 90 per cent. of t! 
spawn hatched was brought to maturity, whe| 
if left without protection, about 90 per ce} 
would have been destroyed, : 
In the fall of 1905, 500,000 young bass wel 
deposited in the waters of the State. In the f |, 
of 1906, 1,411,000 young bass were depositi|, 
According to prices quoted from bass hatcher f

has been aroused by these experiments and

The work of protecting birds and game ca 
not be entrusted to a few people. It must 
felt in the hearts of all the people of the Stat 
and there must be co-operation by countie 
townships and neighborhoods with the Sta 
officers if any effective work is to be dane. 
am glad to say that this spirit is rapidly develo}; 
ing among the people of Indiana. In numero} 
places associations are being formed having th 
for their object. Children are being taught 
the public schools the value of bird life, ar/

valuable, it ceases to have the desire to kill ar
