In the Montana bison range, a typical reserve for the apeclea, num bers have reached recently as high as 000, whereas the desired level, to avoid overcrowding and consequent destruction of soil covering. Is nearer 500. Thus some buffalo are sold from time to time to local butchers. Others are turned over to Indian agents, loosed on reservations and hunted by the redskins. None of the meat Is wasted, officials say. Similarly elk numbers are reduced when they get too high. In a Wyo ming elk reserve last winter the herd had to he reduced to range ca pacity by killing a considerable num ber of animals. This was done by game officials on foot. Airplanes had been used In making a survey as to the extent of the herd. ing crew today. A heavy crop of ex cellent quality Is anticipated. The Vaughn berries were somewhat touch ed with frost and will probably be some days later. Western Indians Lose Court Hope WAaSHINGTON, May 3d.
