More Than 2,000,000 Big Game Animals
Thrive in America’s National Forests
Wild animal life, chiefly in our national forests, has doubled each year
since 1924.
game animals as the grizzly bear, top; moose, left; and deer, right; thrive
under protection of the
U. S. Forest Service.
BY RALPH HERBERT
SOME years ago, until the Brit-
ish and the Belgians in their
respective colonies took steps to
form big game reserves where
the wild animals indigenous to
Africa could not be hunted,
there was grave danger that
many fine specimens of beasts
would be exterminated.
Seemingly there is no such
danger in the United States.
Game animals have nearly dou—
bled in numbers in the national
forests every year since 1908. In
1924 the big game population in
the forests was 693,000. Today
it is 2,100,000. Hunting is al-
lowed at certain seasons. This,
together with the natural losses
due to death from disease, has
not materially cut down the
number of animals which range
the timbered ground. In fact,
they average about six to the
square mile of national forests.
STATE RANKS SECOND
The State of Washington now
ranks first in the West and sec-i
ond in the nation in the number
of frozen food locker plants in uSe,
according to a recent survey made ,
by the federal extension service.
Washington with 347 locker plants
holds 2nd position for the nationi
behind Iowa whiéh lists 475. The
survey shows 3,623 locker plants
in the nation for 1941 as compar-
ed with 2,870 in 1940 and 1,861
in 1939. Washington entered the
freezer locker field as a pioneer
and has consistently been a leader
in all lines of work connected with
the frozen food industry.
Of a total production of 1,038,-
668 shotguns reported to the Cen-
sus Bureau by the firearms in-
dustry in the last two Censuses
of manufactures, 197,241 were
double-barreled, and 841,427 were
single-barreled, including automat-
ic, repeating, and single shot.
'l194o,
BIG game animals stack up as
follows: 1,800,000 deer, 154,—
000 elk, 63,000 black bears, 20,-
000 antelopes, 19,000 mountain
goats, 9600 bighorn, 7500 moose,
7500 peccary, 4800 grizzly and
Alaska brown bears, 790 wild
boars. The latter are not native.
Some were imported a few years
ago by sportsmen and are now
found in the national forests in
the Appalachians and'in one in
California.
About one-third of all the big
game in the United States is
found in the national forests. In
the western states three—fourths
of the big game make their home
all the year or part of the time
in the national forests.
In addition to the big game,
these forests are estimated to
contain about 7,000,000 fur—bear-
ing animals, of which 3,000,000
are rabbits and hares and 2,000,-
000 are squirrels. There are
also 5,500,000 game birds.

This is the ’first‘ of a new series
'of garden a/rticles designed to
bring the attention of gardeners
throughout the state to bear upon
the important details of their work

have had access to information
from abroad have been very favor-

the people of England toward
their flowers during these trying
times. The Royal Horticultural So-

This practice also has a bear-
ing upon the weed problem too.
Dandelions, plantains. and sim-
ilar plants never suffer from
drought and starvation as severe-
ly as do the grasses. One rea-
son? They have a much deeper
root system! The roots of lawn
grasses are near tho. surface of
the soil. This is particularly true
if you sprinkle lightly each day
rather than soak the ground
deeply as you should. Lack of
fertilizer elements plus incorrect
watering discourages the grass
and therefore encourages the weed
species by eliminating competition.
Of course no amount of fertiliz-
ing and watering will eradicate
weeds entirely but- it does,
