Captain Walter B. Sellmer of the California Fish and Game Patrol dis covered how to do it. His method peopled the forests of his districts with a whole army of ghostly “Game Warden Sellmers,” always ready to step out from behind a tree and tap a poacher on the shoulder. Captain Sellmer discovered long ago that a game warden ought to be in a hundred places at once to keep an eye on game-hogs who spoil out door sport for real sportsmen. So he invented signs which put an imaginr ary “Game Warden Sellmer” behind every rock and tree and thereby mul tiplied himself and his effectiveness a hundred-fold. Now the spoil-sportsman who sneaks far up a mountain brook and plans to catch a mess of illegal trout is likely to find a sign like this star ing at him across the pool: “GAME WARDEN SELLMER WILL BE HERE TODAY—He Might Be Watching You Right Now.” And bang! goes the peace and con tentment which made for happy fish ing. Or the hunter who happens to sight the finest buck he ever saw, a few days after the deer season, finds his trigger finger shaking after a signboard at his elbow has nudged him and asked: “Is Game Warden Sellmer Watch ing You Now?” The fact that Game Warden Sell mer may be 20 miles away, prosecut ing a poacher, doesn’t soothe the jumpy nerves of the game-hog who finds the woods and streams dotted with other signs which say, “This Stream Is Patrolled Daily By Game Warden Sellmer,” or "Game Warden Sellmer Has A Temporary Camp 180 Yards A head.” The plan works, says Captain Sell mer, for the feeling that a thousand eyes are watching every violation of the game laws is not conducive to confidence. It pays to advertise, he thinks. * ’m*~—■" MAMMOTH BRONZE TURKEYS FOR SALE Breeding stock selected from 600 vigorous, healthy birds of the Giant Copper Bronze strain.
