BUILDING UP BUFFALO HERDS
Department Of Agriculture Has Had
sGratifylng Success With This
Part Of Its Work.

rForty-six new buffalo calves are re-
ported on three of the four game pre-
serves maintained by the biological
survey Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture for the special
protection of buffalo. On the national
bison range, in Montana, there are AT
buffalo, including % calves born this
spring. Fifteen calves are reported at
the Wind Cave preserve, in South Da-
kota, and at Niobrara, Neb.
The department has been very
fortunate in maintaining the herds
established at these three points and
at Sullys Hill. North Dakota. There
are relatively few large buffalo herds
now scattered over the country, and
the biological survey has made special
efforts to provide suitable ranges and
protection for what threatened few
years ago to become an extinct
species of native American animal.
