only look on In wonder and with such
pleasure as a true sportsman can feel
In the passive contemplation of what
would be splendid shot.
In late years black and brown bears
have been increasing In numbers and
can be seen at any time feeding on the
garbage piles at the camp posts and ho-
tells. These bears are perfectly harm
less SO long as they are kept in a wild
state, but when they are fed and pet
ted, as some Of them have been in the
past, they lose all fear Of human be-
ings and are liable to do considerable
damage to property and provisions.
They are also liable to brighten tour
lists by following them with the expec-
tation of being fed. Several Of the
black and brown bears that had been
too thoroughly civilized had to be killed
last SUMMER because of their sociable
instincts. .'-H
One Of the most interesting expert
ments which are being conducted In the
Yellowstone park at present is the en-
deavor to raise buffaloes. At the last
session Of congress SIS, 900 was appro-
priated in bill for the purpose Of pro-
vfding an Enclosure and securing a
small herd Of buffaloes. This intention
on the part of the national legislators
has been carried out, the Enclosure has
been provided and small herd estab-
lished within it. The buffaloes are ap-
parently doing well, and as the herd in
creases they will be given the freedom
Of the entire park. g..
In the matter of fishing the policy of
the government is less restrictive than
In hunting. Trout fishing is allowed in
the park, and in the clear lakes and
mountain streams much fine sport can
be had. That there may be no cessa-
ton to this sport it has been recon-
mended that small fish hatchery shall
be established in the park. Seven mil
lion black spotted trout were Matched
In Yellowstone lake last season
Yellowstone park has been aptIy des-
1gnated the wonderland of the United
States and is year by year attracting
tourists in increasing numbers. Con-
gress has begun to realize the worth of
this game reservation, and the appro-
priations which have been made dur
ing the past few years have been such
as to permit of many improvements to
the park which were greatly needed.
Much has been done in the way of road
building and repairing, and the pleas
ure and comfort of trip through the
park have been greatly enhanced there
BY. The railroads have also begun to
show an interest in the park, and the
travelling public is to have an easier ac-
cess than heretofore.
