Appointed to his position in |

over one million separate licenses, this area. Both he and Mrs. Swain
spent their childhood tn and |

win oe snipped to approximately
1 .BOO county clerks and licensed
deputies in 254 Texas counties by
August 20.
Both hunting and fishing licenses
must be renewed for the new fiscal
year whieh begins at midnight.
August 31.
First sizeable demand for the
hunting licenses will center around
tiie north zone mourning dove
season beginning September 1.
The twenty-eight different kinds
oi licenses cover all phases ot
hunting and fishing, ranging in
cost from fifty cents for a duplicate
license to $200 for a wholesale fish
dealer’s license.
The License Clerk said a new ad-
dition to the hunting license, which
is expected to prove popular in the
coastal areas, calls for a $5 five-
day, non-resident license to hunt
migratory waterfowl. Heretofore,
non-residents desiring to hunt
ducks and geese had to buy a regu-
lar $25 non-resident hunting li-
cense.
This new non-resident hunting
permit is in conformity with the
previously arranged five-day non-
resident listing icenses for $1.65
or a season’s non-resident fishing
license for $5.25. Resident fishing
licenses are $1.65.
The main hunting permit costing
$2.15 is the popular one for resi-
dent Texans because it covers both
big game and small game.
The License Clerk noted that the
paper tags again will be used for
big game since the proposed metal
tags are still being tested as to
their practicability.
