RSHING SEASON
COMES TO HALT
SMALL STREAMS WILL REMAIN
CLOSED UNTIL MAT 21, SAYS
COMMISSION
The general fishing season in Mon
tana came to a close a few days ago
and will remain closed until sunup on
May 31.
Fishing In the state's major rivers
Is permitted the year around, how
ever, and the closing order applies
only to the streams.
The state fish and game commis
sion will meet early In April to de
termine which streams and lakes will
be open to fishing during the 1937
season.
Meanwhile, eight of the state’s
deputy game wardens and several
national forest service rangers will
make a count of the number of ani
mals in the northern Yellowstone
park elk herd, under the direction of
James Weaver, state fish and game
warden.
The count, the warden said, is in
tended to disclose the exact number
of elk in Montana and the number
■till in the park, and determine what
provision for foliage must be made.
The herd has been estimated at about
11,000.

I. M. Brandjord, who for 12 years
has been state land commissioner,
has resigned that office and has
been named administrator of the
State Department of Public Welfare.
During his long tenure in the state
land office, Mr. Brandjord has been
a zealous and indefatigable guard
ian of thefre tangible state assets
whose income constitutes the perma
nent school fund of Montana. The
office carries with it also the duties
of investment commissioner.
The people of Montana have been
particularly fortunate in the fine ad
ministration which Mr. Brandjord
has furnished. He has among other
things, reorganized the method of
handling the lands and their income.
He put an end to the disastrous
farm mortgage loans and has re
peatedly made demand upon the leg
islature that it compensate the school
fund for losses resulting from farm
mortgage loans, since the constitu
tion provides that this fund shall
remain forever inviolate. It is, in ef
fect, a guaranteed fund from which
only the earnings shall be distributed
among the schools of the state.
department. His residence now is at
312 Clarke street.
Chairman Good said In addition to
the appointment of the administrative
heads, the liquor board transacted only
routine business during its meeting at
