This fat, together with the rainy 'weather of thesummelawhich caused many• sportsmen to postpone their visit until the fall, may quite possibly lead to 2 ecord season. The fish and game preservation pokey of the provincial government, which has resulted in the phenomenal increase of wild Hie, is of interest to all sportsmen, Interviewed on the subject recently, Mr. J. A. Belleisle, superintendent o/ that branch of the government concerned in this policy, said: "For the past fifteen years we have concentrated on gainie preservation in this province. This has bean most effectively /accomplished by the establishment of small preserves which are leased to private fish and game clubs, We have now no less than 600 of these and are working steadily to establish more. As a condi- tion of the lease we insist that each club provide at feast two filily qualified gate wardens whom we dense as such The result is that we have 1,000 game wardens more than our own corps a about 125, maintained at o otpense to the government, far larger number than we could possibly supply wore we compelled to do so from public funds„ Were it ribt for this policy, large tracts of ed umtvy into which chose—vie the Rt. Lawrence River, ' the fish and game overfloW from these preserves would be utterly destitute of such life on account of , the great numbers of sportsmen drawn into the prov- • ince over whom we could enereise little or no efinctive control, As it is, the whole eountry teems with tro- phies awaiting the sportsman, whether he belongs to a club or not, "As a proof of the increase of game," Mr. Belle - isle continued, "I might say that moose, bear and deer have lately been seen even in the stibtrhs our cities and towns. 01 recent years,,a moose was shot in the vety,heart of Quebec 'city, xri the square between the Basilica and the city hall, and another , near a large apartment house a stone's throw from the Parliament Buildings, On another aseasian, a bear was shot itt the suburb of St. Bach. A11 over the province, this increase is apparent, Lake Megantie, the Laurentier,s, the Gatineau Valley, Temiskaming, gipawa, St. Maurice, Lake dward, Maftiwaki and other laces on the Canadian Pacific lines, are packed.' ,Arid, to clinch Mr. )2elleisle's ease, the following comes to hand from Tem -kip Clamp, on take Tends- kaming: "IVIpose, doeandbear are very piontifui this • season, especially moose. They are all over the plane, have been out for four -days with a patty front New York city Who have llatrat 860a anything like the abundance of gairte we balla here,"
