New Game Law Changes deer and upland bird seasons
Washington lawmakers pass 6000 new game laws aiming to protect deer nearly year round and restrict hunting practices. Open seasons shift for upland birds and waterfowl with reduced bag limits and weekly totals. Also noted is the start of cashmere sawmill construction by Hayward Cunningham with 45 to 60 workers planned and a $50,000 investment. Local notices advise timely bicycle and sewing machine repairs.
