Every i in the Union save South Caroand Delaware ($7.50) has a lift of from $5 down to $2. ?uth Carolina game wartlfens did and could not enforce the nonlent fishing law, with the conseice the state game department ag the last fiscal year received meager sum of $810 from 81 nonents. We venture to say that any good week-end last Bpring jn-residents were fishing on Lake ay alone, without any license at With no requirement for resl3 of the state to procure a flshicense there was no way for warto enforce the law other than by englng every person they did not r personally. Lrty-six slates provide a short fishing license of from one day le month duration, at costs from cents to $3.25.

It is the creation resident fishing license for ang* Anglers, or those who fish by i of artificial or?manufactured ' ?ther than ordinary hooK and will be asked to purchase an 1 state wide fishing permit for Despite the fact ^hat every i fishing organization and gyoup iftsmen, as well as the state deem of game and fish, has enl the measure and .urged its le, the bill passed the house oner much debate.

While the warden Is 'gaged, it is likely he will come many fish trdps and break up illegal and unsportsmanlike 18 of taking South Carolina's me species. All In all, a much 'holesome condition of law enfcnt will result. f these two measures are rev^i hducing measures, they ate '(essary and are welcomed by i ho will be called on to pay Paradoxical as it seems, the reduction of the non-resident license will increase the revenue from this source. We believe the senate will quickly pass both these measures as they have already made a study of tlio bills and we think the majority are in sympathy and accord with tho re- j qulrements of the proposed laws. GAME AND FI8H ZONES Two years ago the state legislature 1 adopted a constitutional amendment previously voted on in the primary by the constituents, declaring that the state should "be divided into several game and flsh zones." Last year after considerable study pro and con as to JuBt where and" how the lines should be drawn dividing the state into the game and fish ; zones, a six-zone outline was agreed ; upon. The session was too far gone j to complete the measure, and it died on the senate calendar. This year the senate immediately adopted the plan of last year and passed the measure to the house for their consideration. The six zones are made from the following counties: Zone 1?Ofconee, Pickens, Green' ville. Zone 2?Spartanburg, Cherokee, j Union, Anderson, Laurens, Abbeville, ! Greenwood, McCormick. j. Zono 3?Newberry, Richland, Salu| da, Lexlngtpn, Edgefield; Aiken, Calhcun. Zone 4?York, Chester, Lancaster, Chesterfield, Fairfield, Kershaw. Zone 6?Marlboro, Darlington, Lee, Florence, Dillon, Marlon, Sumter, Horry, Clarendon. Zone 6?Barnwell, Bamberg, Orangeburg, Williamsburg, Georgetown, Dorchester, Berkeley, Colleton, Allendale, Hampton, Jasper, Beaufort, Charleston. It should be borne in mind that these lines were drawn by about a dozen Individuals including the chief game warden, officers of the game and flsh commission and association, following several conferences with various groups, including the senate committee on flsh, game and forestry. It is no haphazard answer; careful study of contributing conditions of climate, food and cover, and distribution and abundance of game and fish, was made and a reasonable solution gained. At present we are attempting to onforce similar game and flsh laws under dlssimiliar conditions. The soon-, er we group likes with likes and have a law to apply, the smoother will wo find our going. Only three counties of the state h^ve any amount of mountain tropt; the quail distribution in Williamsburg county differs' greatly from that of Laurens; climate conditions in Pickens and Jasper vary a good deal; the cover and nhtural food of Cherokee and of Berkeley are not alike; and compare the waters of Oconee with the waters of Beaufort. Would not such counties as Dillon, Marion, Florence be Interested In a season and bag limit somewhat different from what Abbeville, Greet** wood and McCormick would consider? With a statewide law governing maximum season^ and bag and size limits, the regulations could be further amended within a zone, accord I USE FAT LIGHTWOOD POSTS V fe5ce your fields, pastures and gardens so they will #y icneed, We have the Ughtwood Posts?most rable of all wood?the kind that lestB a life-time.
