Belleisle, superin- tendent of the fish and game de- partment of the Province of Quebec, when in Montreal recently. The province is now teeming with wild life, he says, mainly because of its conservation policy,' whereby pre- serves are rented to fish and game clube on the understanding that. they appoint wardens.
