been very favorable for an abundance Of

mild and there has been plenty of mois-
ture and luxuriant growth Of berries and
other wild plant products which are nee
essary 10 feed the feathered game and
smaller animals. Prairie chickens and
grouse seem to have been coming into
this section in greater numbers since the

will greatly reinforce the game birds,
while partridgeS seem as numerous in
some localities Is in the pioneer days. II
Is difficult IT 50 early i date TO prophesy

there will be many deer, although the
