HUNTERS PAY LARGE SUM TO STATE

The Wisconsin conservation commission collected $385,425 in license fees paid by hunters, fishermen and trappers during the last year. This is an increase of $80,000 over the $305, 198 collected in 1921.

Hunters paid the greater part of the license fees collected during the year, $160,433 of them having paid the residence-hunting fee. Nonresident hunters paid $15,675. Anglers fees faid by nonresidents totalled $67,803, while trappers paid fees of $56,078.

The sale of deer tags brought in $15,962, and of beaver licenses, $7,780. Through the sale of rough fish $19,549 was paid as the state's share and confiscation brought in an additional $6,338.

Most of the license fees collected by the conservation commission go into the state's general fund and total over $100,000 more than the appropriation for operating the state department, warden force and all.
