$3.50 Deer and
135 Elk Killed
in Idaho, 1919

Idaho hunters, in 1919, killed 223O
deer, 135 elk and seventy-seven mount
ain sheep, according to report made
to Governor Davis by Robert O. Jones,
state commissioner of law enforce
ment.
Discussing the work of the state
game department, the report says in
part:
" During the big game season, Game
Warden Otto M. Jones, instructed all
assistant chiefs and local deputies to
keep careful check on all big game
killed and taken out of their districts.
The reasons for so doing were to pre-
vent as far as possible violations of
the game laws; that is the killing
of more than the limit for one person
of large game. 1t was also desired
to have a record of approximately the
amount of game killed during the
hunting or open season Various re
ports now on file with the bureau as
received from game wardens and also
the forestry service, which cooperated
with this department in every respect,
indicate that during the year 1919,
there were 2230 deer killed in Idaho,
135 elk and seventy-seven goats.
These figures of course, are not abso-
lutely authentic. -

$4,000 WILL Be
THIS
SUMMER ON OLD
MOUNTAIN ROAD
New Grade to Be Construct
ed for Distance of One and
Half Miles into Adams Camp
Real Motor Highway Planned
by Government; Assistance
from County to Be Sought

Five thousand dollars is to be OK
pended by the U. S. forest service dur
ing the coming summer on improve
ment of the old road from Grangeville
to Adams Camp. The distance is APP
proximately twenty eight miles of which
twenty-one miles is in the national for
est. The forest service, however, will
not confne its Improvement to that
portion of the road which lies within
the forest, but will expend money
on the entire stretch.
WANT COUNTY TO HELP
Aid of Idaho county, in cooperation
with the forest service, is to be sought
for this road, it is announced.
The road to Adams Camp is one of
the Oldest roads in Idaho county, and
was built many years ago for trans
portation of supplies into the mining
camps of Florence and Warren. For
a number of years traffic over the road
has been light, and the road is in
poor state of repair.
Last summer motor trucks of the
forest service passed over the road
to a point about a mile from Adams
Camp, while sheepmen, in some in
stances, were able to drive cars all the
way to Adams.
EMPLOY DAY LABOR
Improvement of the road will be
made by day labor, under supervision
of the forest service. 1t is announced
that no contracts will be let, work
will be done on such sections of the
road as are in greater need of i'm
provement, and the job will be push
ed until funds are exhausted Just
how much work can be done depends
entirely upon costs, and the amount
of money made available by Idaho
county to aid in the Improvement
A new grade will be constructed for
distance of a mile and a half into
Adams, to take the place of the pre-
sent grade, which is difficult to travel.
At other points, the road will be
shortened, sharp turns will be elimi-
mated, and steep places in the road
will be remedied wherever possible.
If weather permits, work will start
on June Is.
