The members of the club, who
have recently moved into a -new

was given. It developed later that

One version was that the Queen
had expressed a desire to see the
clubhouse and had given orders that
the club must be cleared of all its

Bear (black, glacier, cinnamon)

Three changes are noteworthy In
the above:
FIRST—The fox season has been
advanced to December 1st and ex
tended to March 31st. This is to
prevent the great influx of unprime
skins into the hands of the traders
during the early days of the open
season. We estimate that the mon
ey value of the fox catch can be
increased more than 10% by giv
ing the animals 15 days more to
mature before trapping.
The advisability of prescribing
different open seasons for white fox
and red fox was discussed, but tbe
habits and ranges of the two species
are too closely associated to allow
SECOND—The change in the^
muskrat season is radical and. we
believe, efficacious.
The long midwinter season is not
wanted either by trappers or trad
ers. It leads to a destruction of
bouses and runaways that would
certainly exterminate the rat If long
continued. The forty days open
season at the breakup gives the
hunteT a chance to select and1 shoot
the finest rats at a time when their
pelage has reached its highesr
point of excellence.
THIRD—The season Is closed on
Beaver. The trapper forced this
issue upon himself by a wholesale
destruction of beaver houses during
