Quail Season Opens;
New Law Very Strict
The open season for quail as
prescribed by the new game
law begun yesterday and ends
January 31, and is J>e most ex
uding of any lav: regulating
the killing of quail t lmt has ev
er been in force in Arkansas.
Protection of the quail from
ruthless slaughter and protec
tion of owners of enclosed lands
are the two important features
of the law.
It limits the bag of the hunt
er in any one day's shoot to 15
birds, and requires every per
son hunting upon enclosed land
to have a written permit from
the owner or manager of the
land. He must have that per
mit in his possession while hunt
ing on the grounds. Before the
enactment of the present law
there was no bag limit in Ark
ansas, and the open season be
gan November 1 and ended
March 1.

youngest governor’s private

Hays, to the position. Grady
