Of this total 54,751 acres had been closed to ])nblic siiooting by the land- owners before the law was enacted, so all told, but 15,5G7 acres were directly affected by this law. What many sportsmen seem to forget is the fact that property OAvners have certain rights and in the past few years, because of the conduct of men in the field Avith a gun, have decided to assert their rights and for that reason more land each year is being closed to public shooting. The thoughtless actions of a minority of hunters have brought about the closing of land to all sportsmen. As a gen- eral rule, farmers or landowners are good fellows, and if treated as such will usually permit responsible persons the use of their land for shooting Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original California.
