you could read about modules. and if you just want your subroutines.. you can structure like this:

# file1.pl

#this file contains your subroutines...

# end your file with a return true.. or a true value..
1; # this shoud do.


############

# File2.pl

# in the beginning of your file
BEGIN {
      require './file1.pl';
}
# this will get what you want...

Just be sure to check the link for creating modules.
