Investigation Investiga-tion is continuing. Duck Stamp flow Costs $5 Duck stamps will cost five dollars this year because of a $2 increase ordered by the Department Depart-ment of the Interior. The Secretary of the Interior was authorized to increase the price of the Migratory Bird Hunting Hunt-ing Stamp when President Nixon signed the bill into law which had been approved by Congress last December. All proceeds from sale of duck stamps go into a fund set aside for the acquisition of wetlands and refuges for migratory birds. The costs of those lands have risen dramatically over the last few years. Without waterfowl habitat, we will have no waterfowl, and without with-out more money we cannot preserve pre-serve sufficient habitat. It's as simple as that, said Assistant Secretary of the Interior Nathaniel P. Reed. The duck stamp bagan in 1934 at $1. It was raised to $2 in 1949 and $3 in 1959. Funds from sales have always gone into buying waterfowl habitat. Waterfowl hunters 16 years of age or older are required to purchase a duck stamp each year in addition to a state hunting hunt-ing license. Pike Plant Now One-half Million One and a half million walleye wall-eye were planted recently near Bird Island in Utah Lake as the first contingent of several million mil-lion fish scheduled for the lake this year. Glenn Davis, Division of Wildlife Wild-life Resources fisheries biologist, bi-ologist, said most of the Utah Lake planters will come from walleye eggs stripped from spawners out of the Provo River. The eggs are processed at Division Di-vision hatcheries in Salt Lake City and Springville with the tiny walleyes being planted in Utah Lake soon after hatching. An important walleye spawning area of the Provo River was closed to fishing for the first time this spring. Biologists hope protecting the gravel bar section of the river will bolster the walleye population in Utah Lake. n c o7v 'r77vV?7 1 1 1 11 """"ii.:; f-MWt -mm ft -5 ' : " J ' 1 Till r ' "' ..j,.
