GAME PRESERVE OF 1900
ACRES is OFFERED LOUISIANA
BY Associated Press:

New Orleans, May 30.-A game pre-
serve for wild ducks and geese, COW
ering 1900 acres and said to be the
largest in the country, was today Of
fered to the state of Louisiana by E. A.
McIlhenny Of Avery Island, and Chas.
Willis Ward, of Michigan. This prop
erty is to be held in trust by the state
exclusively as a game preserve; an ad
ditional tract of $1,000 acres will be
decided to the state for a period of ten
years. making total of $4,000 acres.
President Miller, of the state game
commission, has heretofore met with
little success in protecting wild game
because of the lack of a preserve and
his attention was called to the grad
ually diminishing numbers by DIR. A. K.
Fisher, of the federal department in
terested in this work. President Miller
had almost despaired of solving the
problem when he was notified to visit
Avery Island.
An inspection tour with Messrs. Nc
Ilhenny and Ward on the latter's yacht
was made and a portion of the $4,000
acres looked over. The game official
was stunned when he was Informed
that this land would be given to the
state for the purpose of a game pre-
serve.
The property is in Vermillion parish
west of Vermillion Bay. 1t was orig
inally sold by the state to various par
ishes for rs cents per acre, but the
owners who were buying it up were
sometimes forced to pay more than SIS
per acre. The only stipulation pro-
vides that no wild bird must ever be
killed within the confines Of the pre-
serve.
The game commission will hold a
meeting next week to formally take
over the deed and close all arrange
ments.
