Closed (o llua'.fog.
Twenty-six counties in the
State are closed to hunters for
seasons of various lengths. The
counties closed are chiefly those
recently re-stocked with game
and fish, the object being to en
able the game and fish to multi
ply to an extent that the natural
increase may offset the numbers
killed each year hereafter.
For several years, especially
since the advent of the swift au
to, Fulton county has been the
Mecca for hunters from every
county west of us. Great quan
tities of all kinds of game were
taken out. This cannot possibly
go on indefinitely without de
pleting our stock of game. We
venture the assertion that there
is not a spot of like extent in the
Stale that is hunted as hard as
Fulton county, and at the same
tim.3 there is no county in which
the local hunters have done as
little to coax their share of at
tention from the State Game
Commission. Last spring, six
Ringneck Pheasants and twelve
native quail were turned lojse
near McConnellsburg, and to the
best of our knowledge, this is all
we have received for the $1,800
turned in during 1914 and 1915
by the local hunters.
