Then some officious American started
the idea that perhaps he had been

The future of the buffalo, as has been said, is fully assured. A few years ago these animals were so much hunted that they were near ing extinction, but in the Wind Cave refuge in South Dakota and the national bison range in Mon tana, they are increasing rapidly. It is pointed out that it Is now practi- cal to use the annual surplus, in- cluding hoofs and hides, as by-prod- ucts. Proper wild life administra tion includes calling this matter of surplus to the attention of sports men and others who may be in terested, to the end that those wish ing buffalo trophies or meat, or even live animals, may know where they are to be had.

to time as the number increases there are shipments to the depleted ranges throughout the West. In time it is believed they will be nu- merous enough for all practical pur- poses. Asked to indicate how exist ing elk are distributed over that part of the country, ". c. Tender son, assistant chief of the biological survey, said
 There are about 500 on the bi- son range in Montana, 250 in South Dakota, 53 in Nebraska, and 40 at Sully's Hill, North Dakota. That makes a total of S43 The southern Yellowstone herd contains approxi- mately 10000, and the northern Yellowstone herd perhaps some what larger number. Then there is the Olympic herd in Northwest Washington, numbering between 5000 and 5000, although that is merely an estimate. These are the only large herds in the country" Big game, like domestic livestock in the West, has many enemies, chief among which are the beasts of prey. For a number of years there has been cooperation between the Federal government, the States and associations of private citizens for the destruction of these animals, and it is meeting with great deal of success. In Washington state the total fund for that purpose aver ages about $43,000 a year. of which the Federal government contributes about s19,O00. In some of the West ern States the total amount expend- ed each year is larger than that, be- ing about s60,00O in Montana, l sSO,O00 in California, s6S,000 in Nevada, and s64,00O in Oregon. In | nearly every case the Federal gov ernment contributes less than the State and private citizens.

Many Predatory Animals Killed

Last year the Biological Survey killed of animals whose scalps were taken, 34,92 coyotes, 56a wolves. 3,507 bobcats and lynx, 237 noun tain lions, 193 bears, tDiai of 3S,591. In addition, many preda- tory animals were killed by poison and their bodies not recovered It is estimated that the total of both was about 100000. The estimated saving of stock for the year was s7,775,000 that is to say, stock to that value would have been killed but for the campaign that was made.
 Asked whether losses from preda- tory animals were decreasing, MT. Henderson said
 With respect to wolves and mountain lions there is no doubt that they are We have reduced the number of these larger predatory animals. Wolves are no longer seen in places where formerly they ran in packs, and mountain lions are seen much less frequently year by year. In some regions they are no longer a menace to stock and game.
 Coyotes, however, are still very numerous throughout the whole of the West and have come east as far as Michigan Indiana and Ohio. They have very large filters, and have ac- quired the ability to take care of themselves despite civilization. In many parts of the country, however, their number has been visibly re- duced. doubt if we shall ever be able to exterminate them.--W. w. Jermane, Associate editor of the Seattle Times.

Mountain Sheep Scarce

Dr. E. W. Nelson, chief of the Biological Survey, says he receives a good many letters from people who want to know whether it will be possible to secure mountain sheep for breeding purposes in ranges in the West formerly occupied by large numbers of big horn. The answer is that there is no place in the Tinted States at this time where mountain sheep can be secured either for ex- hibition or breeding purposes.

Large Herds of Deer

There are more deer than any thing else. the total being 550,0OO head, as compared with 511,0OO for 1928. The four states having the largest number, in order of their rank, are California, Oregon, Idaho, and Arizona. Alaska is credited with 50,000, about the same number to be found in Idaho and Arizona. More than half the deer are in the Kaibab National Forest. Efforts are being made to reduce the number on ac- count of lack of sufficient forage.
 Elks have increased from 49,500 in 1923 to 52,6OO in 1924. There has been a notable increase in the Teton National Forest, bordering on Yellowstone Park, and the problem of forage has become there, as in Arizona, and will demand that the herd herd be reduced.

Buffalo Meat Available

Many of the surplus buffalo are used alive by transporting them to other suitable areas for restocking purposes, or for exhibition in public parks. A limited number, not suited or required for these purposes, are slaughtered every year and used as meat. The by-products are available for those desiring buffalo trophies, and are offered for sale by the bio logical survey at s35 to s60 each for heads and $40 to $50 each for robes suitable for rugs and coats.
 Live buffalo, well-developed young animals, suitable for exhibition and breeding purposes, are offered at $115 each, crated and loaded on the cars at Hot Springs, S. D., and Moiese, Mont, by writing to which places those interested may secure all necessary further information.
 A Surplus of Elk
 There are also a number of sur plus elk on these Montana and South Dakota reservations, and the biological survey is selling them at ss5 a head, crated and loaded on the cars Recent shipments from the Wind Cave refuge in South Dakota consisted of two elk and two buffalo for exhibition purposes at Monroe, La, one COW elk to LaGrange, Ind, and six bull elk to the Pennsylvania State Game Commission for libera- tion on suitable ranges in Elk coun- ty A herd of Elk was placed on range several years ago and the an- imals have done so we'll that it was deemed advisable to secure the six young bulls as an addition to the herd.

Big Horn Imported from Canada

Several shipments of big horn have come into the United States re- gently through the courtesy of the Canadian government. Eight ewes and four bucks were captured in one of the Canadian parks, shipped to Montana and turned loose in 1922 on the Montana bison range, which embraces 1S,000 acres. The flock now numbers 2S.
 As fas as is known the breeding of mountain sheep is similar to that of domestic sheep, with which 75 to 80 per cent of lambs are not un- usual. The biological survey there fore confidently looks forward to the time when mountain sheep on the Montana range will number 500 say 45O ewes and 50 bucks. With such a flock, allowing a wide mar gin for losses, there should be $50 or more available each year for shipment to stock suitable areas throughout the country.
 One shipment of mountain sheep recently received from the Canadian government was placed on the Gus ter state park and game refuge in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The six ewes each gave birth to lamb the year they were received, and at las -eports the outlook for a steady increase from year to year was good. Dr. Nelson points out that in the western part of the country there is an enormous acreage suitable for mountain sheep.
 The chief value of the elk is for purposes of propagation. From time

DETERMINATION OF BIG GAME

WASHINGTON - There will De cause for general rejoicing over the Iact that the biological experts ol the government with the aid oi small appropriations made from time to time by Congress have at last succeeded in placing the Dig game of the country on footing that will prevent it's exterminatlon. The struggle against increasing hu- man population and the steady nlH ing up of the waste places where these animals breed, has long been arduous. Science, however, at last triumphed. There will never again be any hunting of big game in con tinental United States, that is not in the minds of experts. What they

 want to do is to insure the perpet uation Of these noble species, and so hand down to future generations living specimens of the geat four footed animals that once had the sweep of the continent at their dis posal, and are intimately related to the country's early history.
 Deer, elk, bears, antelopes and buffalo are increasing ill numbers under expert supervision, the latter being now found only in protected herds for the most part enclosed Moose, however, are decreasing in number, 5,100 head being reported for 1924 as compared with 5000 for 1923. The Bureau of Biological Sur vey in the Department of Agricul- ture will be equal to that problem however, and may be expected to go 10 Congress for help. Antelopes or pronghorns are also decreasing slightly, only about 5000 of them being reported for last year, mostly in Arizona and Idaho. In Northeast Nevada and Southeast Oregon a large herd of antelopes is grazing on public lands, outside the National Forests. Effort will be made to se- cure game reserve for them, and that question, too, will probably go to Congress.
 As to all other big game, there has been satisfactory increase during the year, something like 44,OOO in all, making the total num- Der of head, of all varieties, about 6S7,000 distributed over 151 Ma tional Forests.

Bears Listed as Game Animals


 Last year for the first time bears were listed in the official reports as game animals. Previously they were regarded as beasts of prey. The figures for the 151 National Forests show 44,300 head of which number 3S,700 were the common black and brown varieties, the remaining $500 being grizzlies. Nearly all the latter are in the two National For ests in Alaska. Montana is the only State in which the Forest rangers found specimens of them last year.

A Debt That's Due

CEATTLE, wonder city of the West
~ in its growth, has been handicapped
TO a large extent by the same rapidity
of growth that made ii famous.
So fast have new sections built up,
so quickly has been the development of
Industrial territories and SO urgent have
been the demands from isolated centers
that sprang up like mushrooms for
sewers, car lines and other necessities
that the city today is to large extent
a haphazard maze of temporary make
shifts that have been installed to meet
pressing needs.
Little attempt has been made in the
past TO Synchronize these Improvements,
or to build toward any one particular OBJ
jective. And, as the city rapidly grew
into a metropolis, it found itself pain
fully pinched by growing pains.
Then came the organization of the city
planning commission. body of u public
spirited citizens. each an expert in his
own line, who agreed to serve without
pay in the hope of laying out compre-
hensive plan around which Seattle off
Gals could build in the future so that
their construction would economically fit
into a general centralized scheme of
things.
Little has been heard of the planning
commission since its inception. but every
member has been hard at work. Such
difficulties as the rapid transit system,
the traffic problem, the Denny Way re-
grade and other knotty problems that
have puzzled Seattle for years have been
tackled and scientifically studied. Re-
ports and recommendations on them are
to be made soon.
Only then will Seattleites recognize
the debt of gratitude that it already
owes to this modest body of q men.
