Game Law

Lies Circulated

Denver.—Reports have recently been that each hunter would be allowed to kill two deer this fall, providing he possesses the necessary skill.

The circulation of such reports has aroused the deep-seated ire of State Game and Fish Commissioner Holland, and if any hunter presumes to exercise his claim to the extent of two deer slaughtered, the game authorities will prosecute.

One deer, and that must be a buck, says the law, and that goes to the full extent of the law, contrary reports notwithstanding.

The deer season opens on October 1 and continues until sun down of October 10.
