Hunters Enforce Game Laws Under Texas Warden Pete Crawford
In the Big Bend district, game warden Pete Crawford reports strict enforcement of new Texas game laws. Only 12 cases were filed last month, with fines imposed on violators. Two hunters were caught with deer does, six fined for quail violations, and two found in game reservations without licenses. Crawford emphasizes law adherence and notes heavy hunting in the Chisos mountains. Beautiful home rounds offer property value, and a Ramsey Austin Nursery catalog is advertised. A German method uses mud as fuel, while mud is also noted in U.S. politics.
