BOYD, Owner ELSIE W. HUTTON, Editor RALPH WARDEN, Business Mgr. Entered as second-class matter November 17, 1904, at the postoffice in Owensville, 1 under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879. Thursday, February 8, 1934. man MISSOURI NEWS "Send all communications to DEPARTMENT EFFERSON CITY MISSOURI Since last June Missouri's system of state parks has undergone a most remarkable transformation, made possible through the work of the National Park Service and the Civilion Conservation Corps.

The magnitude and scope of this development is indeed amazing and to get a true picture one should visit these recreational centers now in process of metamorphosis. No one of these parks have exactly the same scenery, soil and rock formation or forest area. They differ in the tree, shrub and plant life, reflecting the changing seasons of the year. In the extensions and improvements which are being made, care is being exercised that the natural beauty and ruggedness is preserved. A survey of the park service camps has just been completed under the direction of Everett A.

Pesonen, Inspector of the second district, United States Department of Interior, division of park conservation work, who is cooperating with Wilbur C. Buford. State Game Fish Commissioner, State Procurement Officer and State Forester for the CCC. In a series of articles the editor of the Game Fish News hopes to give a word picture of the huge development program which when finished, should take care of the recreational needs of the state for a quarter of a century, providing proper maintenance is forthcoming. The ideals of the National Park Service has been accepted as the guiding principles in the development of the Missouri parks.

Briefly, this ideal is the conservation of natural beauty with as little molestation by man as possible. The services such as water supply, sanitation, shelter, buildings and the like are concentrated in a service area. This is done both for reasons of economy and to avoid scattering buildings throughout the entire park. Every effort is made to supply pure water, adequate sewage disposal and clean sleeping and eating accommodations. A good safe entrance road is provided with plenty of parking space for cars.

Barriers are provided to confine the parking area. The park is made available with bridle paths and foot trails to interesting natural features, good views and for nature study. The magnitude of the park project may be visioned when it is pointed out that work now in progress on some 40,000 acres with 4,000 men busily engaged in carrying out this program of conservation and development and the future care of these areas presents no small problem. State Parks included in the present survey are located at Bennett Spring, Roaring River, Montauk, Alley Spring, Big Spring. Sam A.

Baker and Meramec State Park. The season for gigging fish closed February 1st. The season will remain closed during February, March, April and May. Preparations for the spring opening of the trout season are now underway, Dr. G.

Approximately 35.000 rainbows of catchable size have been released in these three stateowned waters. Already hundreds of trout anglers are making reservations for the opening day of the season, March 1.

The rules and regulations for trout fishing in state parks will be the same as that of 1933. Bulletin boards will be placed in each park to designate fishing hours. For the first time a restricted fly fishing area will be established at Montauk. At Roaring the "fly" area will be the same as last year, from the lake to the dam. At Bennett Springs that portion of the spring branch from what is known as Cliff Eddy to that part known as Susie's Eddy will be reserved for fly fishing only and wading will be permitted.

The portion of the branch from the spring to the dam will be opened to bait fishing but no wading will be permitted. Above and below the fly fishing area bait fishing will be permitted.

At the present time all game fish are eligible to the creel excepting trout.
