servation department is being sought
and on wardens trapping beaver on
complaint of damage.
Similar information in regard to
muskratS is wanted.
The problems in regard to both deer
and bear seasons, and the creation
of additional state game refugees, or
vacating areas to divide refugees into
smaller separated sections, will prob
ably be discussed with considerable
heat.
Any part of Is questions listed under
the big game animals heading could
be argued for hours. For example: Do
you favor one-buck law? Or, five
day yearly season? Shall bear be
taken off the protected listP Shall
there be additional refugees?
Opinions as to upland game bird pop
ulations in various areas, season dates,
bag limits, license fees, and preda-
tory animal kill are wanted.
One question under the game fish
heading-do you favor Qualification
and recodification of fish and game
laws?-is enough to keep the congress
in session for lengthy period. Other
questions concern populations, netting,
fish refugees, and earlier opening of
pan fish season.
Endorsement of the policy of the
conservation department in promoting
more fish rearing ponds under the
supervision of propagation area men,
a policy which promises to create one
or more such ponds here next spring,
is being sought. Another question is:
Are fish hatcheries in your locality as
efficient as they should be?
The tourist bureau will come in for
probing as follows: Is its appropriation
sufficient? Should it be taken out of
the conservation department? What
state promotion is best?
The water fowl season now more
than half gone will provide plenty of
material for discussion. Recommends
tons as to ricing, a closely related
subject, are sought

planned. cit was pitch dark and I was
sort of feeling my way along the path
when suddenly I nearly stepped on
that big black bear lying on the path
and chomping away at the grass. Old
Bruno merely grunted, but I circled
wide around him and I admit that
momentarily got a real scare.
"Well, I phoned a couple of the
boys in the foremen's quarters to come
to the Office" Shaw grinned. "They
started up the path and peeked out
the window. When they stumbled
onto Old Bruno's hulking form you
should have seen them jump"
In the eight summers the hugh bear
spent at the camp he never harmed
anyone. He'd eat out of your hand
but would not permit anyone to touch
him.
Of all the activities carried on by
Co. I'll enrollees the most important
came along by accident and was not
included in the work program. That
was salvaging the timber from the
Big lake blowdown. The camp saved
and manufactured nearly a million
board feet out of that mess of twisted
and torn trees, and the lumber was
used throughout the forest for adj
ministrative purposes.
zone month after the camp was
established the first detail started on
the first project, roadside cleanup -
Shaw said, "and soon after prepara-
tons for planting were begun
In the eight years that followed the
camp conducted timber stand improve
ment work designed to raise the value
of second growth trees on thousands
of acres. Because of the heavy growth
in the territory, planting was somewhat
restricted, but trees were set out along
roads and lakes and in burned and
logged areas.
within the next 10 years people
driving the Echo trail will be able to
note and appreciate this planting"
Shaw said.
Miles of foot trails and canoe port
ages and many canoe campsites were
built. Major jobs were the Fenske,
Indian Sioux, Portage River, and
Meander lake campsites, and a side
camp on Lac La Croix. All bridges on
the Echo trail were rebuilt, and the
road itself improved.
The Shagawa lake seaplane base
and dam at Prairie Portage were
started this fall.

Wildlife surveys, fish planting, and
fish stripping at Everett lake were
conducted.
Now the work program laid out
within reasonable driving distance is
completed, and cutting the number of
camps in the nation makes it necessary
to close Portage River But the hun
dreds of people using the Echo trail
campsites will remember. And canoe

La Croix ranger district. And the
people in years to come who travel
the Echo trail. And the timber opera
tors who will cut down the trees.
Yes, and the hundreds of camp
visitors who took innumerable bear
pictures, and who saw their first real
live bears outside captivity. They will
not forget.
But most of all the enrollees who re-
ceived an invaluable start along the
road to health and knowledge will
think often of Portage River.
