Stewart supt. of Osceola Fish Hatchery spoke on rough fish seining and told of why so many trout that are planted in our streams never live and that the Conservation Commission are trying their best to stop this waste of fish and have qualified men in charge of fish planting. A short meeting was called and the following matter was taken up: That the rabbit hunt is to be held the first Sunday in January and the sides will be chosen by the drawing of numbers as the hunters return from the hunt that day, the odd number on one side and the even number on the other side. Hunters were to stop hunting at the time the shooting hour closed and were to meet at the Zorn Garage where the rabbits are to be counted and the numbers drawn. It was decided that the 1935 membership will expire December 1, 1935. Each member was asked to build one feeder and place same in a spot where the pheasants would find it. The club would furnish the feed. Conservation Warden of Polk County Mr. Weitz was also present at this meeting.
No further business, meeting was adjourned.
