Fishing Season. la Illinois Is Open The bass season, which opened on Tuesday, promises better sport than any other season during the last ten. years, in the opinion of W. J. Stratton the state director of conservation. Reports from many of" the , jsixty lakes in Lake and McHenry counties indicate that bass, as well as crappie, sunfish and other fine finnie specimens, are more plentiful than in previous years. The tremendous increase in the supply of fine fissh is attributed to the following two causes: (a) restrictive legislation including a closed season on bass from March 1 to June 15, a minimum length limit of 10 inches and a daily bag limit of 10 black bass; and (b) the distribution of over 500 carloads of bass and fine fish during the last five years. Black Bass--June 16 to March 1; 10 inch; Daily limit, 10. Lake Trout and White Fish--Dccembef 2 to October 25; minimum size 1 and one-fourth pounds dressed. Other Fish--No closed seasons; minimum sizes, rock bass, sunfish, goggje-eye and blue giiis, 6 inches; yellow or ranged perch, 7 inches; white or striped bass and croppies, 8 inches. Licenses--Males and females of 21 years and over require licenses, except that the owners and tenants of farm lands and their children actually residing on such lands may fish in waters lying upon or flowing over the lands of which they are bonafide owners or tenants without license.

That kid must have made a speciality ot fighting I" Wisconsin, as usual, oiTers the most complicated regulations. While the bass fishing officially opens there on June 15, this applies only to Mississippi River waters. In most coun< ties, the sport is not permitted till June 20, with the exception of Green county, which has its opening on the first of Joly. Those who expect to angle Wisconsin waters should make a ciose study of the iaws as there are regulations covering practically all fish. . The taking of pickerel and pike is permitted in Wisconsin starting June 1. Other highlights noted in glimpsing the regulations are that Michigan still keeps-its $5 non-resident license fee, the highest of any near-by state. Indiana continues its $1 non-resident permit policy. Here are the Illinois regulations: Cast Iron and Rust The bureau of standards says the extent to which cast Iron will rust Is. of course, dependent upon the conditions to which it is subjected. For simple atmospheric exposure It is far superior to wrought iron or the ordinary forms of steels. Some of the newly developed alloy steels are Just as resistant as cast iron. - J a p a n * 9 Big V o l c a t m Fujiyama Is 60 miles west of Tokyo and according to tradition rose from the plain in a single night.
