Game Conservation
The sportsmen of this country
must wake up to the fact that they
must put heart and soul into the
problem of Keeping tne supply of
fish and game ahead ot the demand.
Every year sees an increase in the
number of hunters and flshermen
that seek their recreation in the
pursuit of fish and game. Every year
sees the natural conditions a little
less favorable to natural propagation. That something must be done
to keep the supply at a safe distance
ahead of t h e demand Is evident.
That this margin of safety can be
maintained when the proper effort
is put forth is also evident. It has
been proved.

in this country is in sight, will be
forgotten. For each individual state
to work out its own salvation is the
quickest, surest, and most practical
way to bring about the flnal result.
It is true that the Federal Government has a part to play in increasing our natural resources, but
when it comes to the actual stocking of the covers so that you and I
can go out for a little hunt in the
neighborhood of our homes, and
really flnd some real shooting, the
problem is too highly detailed to be
handled by any others than those
who are familiar with each indlvidu a 1 condition and the necessary
method for handling it.
