according to the department. In the

effect allowing only the killing of
buck deer. Increase In extent Of re-
fuge territory is another cause. The
addition of the Theodore Roosevelt
game refuge during the past IL
months to the state game refuge has
cut hunters out of one of the best
hunting grounds In the state. Poor
weather conditions for deer in the
Black Hills and the financial situa-
ton also contributed TO cut down the
number of hunters in the field so far
this season.

not later than March j. statewide
meeting was held at Waterbury Of the
building contractors and sub-contractors

Contractors in every city and town
Of the state are reported as expressing
an earnest desire to have a state or.
ganization which would work to regulate
and stabilize contracting conditions. The
state organization would be expected to
lay the cards OF the contractors on the
table and this, it is believed, might help
stimulate building.
The question Of wages was discussed al
