TUE entire Rocky Mountain

THiE entire Rocky Mountain
Il region - especially Rocky
Mountain, Yellowstone and
Glacier national parks-has high
expectations of being the favored
vacationland of America this
year.
Several factors, besides the
glorious climatic and scenic at
fractions, are expected TO in
fiuence vacation travel to this
area.
One Is its accessibility. Colo
RADIO, for example, is just over
night from Chicago. Vacationists
can get there and return home
quickly and ineXpenSively.
Another attraction is the iso-
lation and insulation that the
West affords.
Although only a few hours
from eastern centers. there are
hundreds of resorts in the Rocky
Mountain region where the
vacationist can feel he has sue
cessfullv escaped the racking
tempo of business life. from the
continuous worries of his worka-
day world.
While different personalities
enjoy different kinds of vaca-
tionS, many believe an increas-
ing number of people this year
will desire vacations that are
primarily restful or which, at
least, involve a complete change
from routine activities and in
tereSts.

Many
Main Routes

SANTA FE., N. NJ. April 1S.
MOTORISTS travelling New
NA Mexico highways have a
choice of more than a half
dozen main routes from which
they may observe from the road
side that fleeteSt of all North
American animals-the antelope.
The restoration of antelope in
New Mexico is one of the sagas
of western game conservation.
From 100 counted in 1916. the
present population of this swift
footed big game animal has
risen to $4,000.
The New Mexico State Game
and Fish Department believes
that the antelope hold more
possibilities from the big game
standpoint than any other ami
NAL in the Southwest. More
than 10000 square miles of good
antelope range are found in the
state.
Trapping and restoration of
antelope in New Mexico was
begun for the first time any
where by the state game depart
ment in 1887. This successful
technique was later employed
by other western states in SINH
lar restocking programs.
Only a few antelope were
taken during that first season,
but since that time the state
game department has moved
and trapped more than 1,500
head and has established more
than so new herds. BY the close
of the current season as many
antelope as we're in the state in
1916 will have been trapped and
transplanted.
With the rapid return OF the
antelope. limited hunting sea-
sons have been allowed during
the last few years in selected
areas. A maximum of $50 per-
mits have been issued in a sea-
son and expansion is expected
as the antelope thrive.
For the casual motorist and
vacationist not interested in
big game hunting. New Mexico's
antelope herds provide a unique
picture of wildlife thriving in
their natural habitat, next door
TO the hustle and hustle OF a
modern civilization.

July l. 2, 3. 1863. Here il was
the Federal Army of the Po-
