Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-Ninth Annual Report of the Game and Fisheries Department, 1935-1936: With Which Is Included the Report for the Five Months' Period Ending March 31st, 1935The total amount of this revenue exceeds by $139,200.25 the amount collected during the period of the last fiscal year reported upon, i.e., ending October 31st, 1934, and represents an increase of more than twenty-five percent. By far the greater proportion of this additional revenue resulted from the increased issue of non-resident licenses, an increase amounting to practically $100,000.00, - more than $72,000.00 from the sale of additional non-resident angling licenses, and more than $27,000.00, from the sale of additional non-resident hunting licenses. Resident hunting licenses, which this year for the first time included licenses to use dogs to hunt deer, netted an additional $22,500.00, while revenue from fines and sales of confiscated articles, resulting from the operations of the enforcement service, also increased by more than $7,800.00.The total expenditures of the Department for this financial year, including both ordinary and capital, amounted to $451,041.91, and it will be noted that our operations showed a surplus of revenue over expenditures totalling $232,896.81. Compared with the previous twelve-month period reported upon, expenditures show a decrease of somewhat in excess of $105,000.00, and while the figures quoted are an evidence of the considerably improved financial position of the Department, such a desirable condition has been attained not through any curtailment of necessary services or interference with departmental activities, but rather because of close and careful scrutiny and the resulting elimination of any unnecessary items of expenditure.Various tables of statistics are included as appendices to this report. They contain in detail considerable information with reference to the output of the fish hatcheries and rearing stations maintained and operated by the Department under the Fish Culture Branch, as well as information as to the distribution of the product of these hatcheries and rearing stations and the waters re-stocked therewith. Tables are also provided giving information with reference to the commercial fisheries of the Province, while interspersed throughout the actual report are statistical facts which refer to other branches of departmental activity, assembled, compiled and included herein for information, and all of which may be considered to be of value and interest.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
