Wisconsin Starts State Wide Move for Conservation Rapid Decrease of Fish and Game Nec essitates Ernest Effort at Convention. A statewide conservation movement, which includes an intensive campaign by the state commission to preserve Wisconsin’s natural beauty is to be launched soon, according to word from Madison today. Officers announced that an appeal will be made to all the citizens to co-op erate in this movement to observe the fish and game laws strictly, and the regulations which guard against forest fires The movement is growing out of a recent meeting of the State Conserva tion Commission 200 representative men from Wisconsin and adjoining states met at Madison to discuss and recom mend ideas or furtherance of the con servation movement. Co-operation is Needed At the meeting it was declared that no time more opportune than the pres ent could be found to push the conser vation idea in Wisconsin. The alarming decrease in the quantity of game and fishes, and the rapid cutting down of the timber lands that has gone on dur ing the last few years is not a hidden fact. Most persons are aware of these conditions, and so, the Commission de clared, it is time to get them interested in conservation. The attitude to be taken in the move ment is that the honest aid of every person in the state is needed, to carry out the work. The fish and game laws are really generous, and the regulations against the spread of forest fires are not so strict that it is a hardship too bey them. The State Commission L prepared to preach that it is selfishness not to obey them strictly. See Importance of Work An example of the importance and and magnitude of this work can be gathered from a statement made at this meeting by the United States Game Warden, Geo. A. Lawler, to the effect that it was estimate 1 that dur ing the year of 1922 there will be issued 4,500,000 licenses to hunters alone. This means that fully one twentieth of the people in the United States are a vailing teemselves of the outdoor life incident to hunting and fishing. This meeting held at, Madison was the first of its kind ever held in the United States to discuss such a topic but it is proposed that from now on it may be made an annual event Potato Inspection Tour Monday On Monday, August 14, 1922 the Up per Wisconsin Potato Inspection Tour will visit Forest Connty as quests of the Forest County Development Assoc iation.
