AMENDED GAME
FUR REGULATIONS,
RECOMMENDATIONS
TERRITORY DIVIDED INTO 8
FUR DISTRICTS IN
STEAD OF THREE
Amendments to the Alaska
Game Law made by the Act of
February 14. 1931, together with
recommendations of the Alaska
Game Commission for modifica
tions in the Regulations respect
ing game and fur-bearing animals
and birds in Alaska, were publish
ed on April 2, to become effective
July 1, 1931. The revised regula
tions were adopted by Secretary
Hyde of the Department of Agri
culture on Mar. 7 and will ap
pear in new game and fur circu
lar No. 8. Appended to the new
Circular is a large map of Al
aska on which has been outlined
the boundaries of the eight new
fur districts.
A supply of the new Circular
No. 8 will soon be received from
the printer for distribution. As in
the past, copies will be mailed to
all persons who held licenses for
this year, as well as to many
others whose name appear on the
Commission’s mailing list. Those
who do not receive a copy through
the mail may secure one from the
local Game Commissioner, Game
Warden, Licensing Officer, or from
the Executive office at Juneau.
The mos;t extensive change is
the division of the Territory into
eight fur districts instead of three
as heretofore. Open and close sea
sons for the taking of fur bear
ers have been changed slightly
to conform to the new districts
and follow' generally the recom
mendations of persons residing in
the districts affected. Until the re
sults of the trapping of beaver
and marten during the past win
ter are known, the Commission j
has deemed it advisable to an
nounce a close season on these
fur-bearers throughout the Terri
tory.
In conformity with an Amend
ment to the Act, provision is made
for the recapture of fur-bearing
animals that escape from fur
farms. To prevent the killing of
many mink during the summer,
it is now required that “Black
fish Traps” commonly m use along
the Bering Sea Coast be screened.
Regulations in hunting migrato
ry game birds have been made to
accord with the federal regula
tions under the Migratory Bird
Treaty Act. No change has been

Everyone knows that
sunshine mellows— that’s why the

— the Cream of the Crop—THEN
-"IT’S TOASTED" — an extra,secret
heating process. Harsh irritants
present in all raw tobaccos are ex
pelled by "TOASTING." These irri
tants are sold to others. They are
not present in your LUCKY STRIKE.
No wonder LUCKIES are always
