HAWKINS ISLAND
A DEER PRESERVE
At the suggestion of the governor’s
office, the secretary of agriculture has
added Hawkins Island, in Prince Will-1
I
iam Sound, to the list of islands on
which it is unlawful to kill deer. The j
department regulation, issued August j
■ 1, 1917, for the protection of deer on!
certain islands in Alaska, as now
amended, reads as follows:
j “The killing of deer on Kodiak isl-j
and and Long Island, and the killing
of deer on the following islands in |
I Southeastern Alaska: lluke Island, j
near Dixon Inlet; Graving Island, near'
"1
Ketchikan; Kruzof Island, west of
Sitka; San Juan Island and Suemez
Island, near Klawak; and Zerembo
Island, near Wrangell, is hereby pro
hibited until August 1, 1918; and the
killing of deer on the islands of Haw
kins, Hlnchinbrook and MGntague, in
Prince William Sound, is hereby pro
hibited until August 1, 1919.”
The deer on Hawkins Island were
recently transferred from Southeast
ern Alaska, under authority or an act
of the 1917 session or the Alaska legis
lature, which made an appropriation
for the purpose. The deer were ob
tained and shipped under the direc
tion of Charles H. Hill of Cordova.
