Hawk bounty law amended in county hawks and owls notes
In a May 30 letter D. B. Stewart asks how to obtain the bounty on hawks and whether owls carry a similar reward. The Legislature last winter amended the hawk law requiring the slayer or possessor to present the entire body to the township clerk who certifies counts and names to the County Commissioners. The auditor then issues payment from the county treasurer. The amendment also provides a like bounty for owls.
