GOOD NEWS TO DUCK HUNTERS.

Amendment to Hunting Laws Now In Force Gives Them Until April IS to Shoot Water Fowl. An amendment to the hunting laws of the state of Indiana, which was passed at the recent session of the Legislature, and which became a law as soon as it was signed by Governor, will be of special interest to duck hunters. The law formerly closed the season for ducks on the first day of April, but the new amendment leaves the season open until April 15. This applies to

other water fowl included in the open shooting season as well as wild ducks. The new law also contemplates that duck shooters shall have until the first day of May to sell or otherwise dispose of the water fowl they have killed during the open season. The amendment to the hunting laws which were enacted at the sessloA of the legislature just closed contained ail emergency 'clause and that is the reason it became effective as soon as the governor’s signature was attached. ,
