Liberation Of Pheasant Under Way Initial pheasant liberations by the Oregon Oame Commission are now under way throughout the state. The Hermiston game farm In northeastern Oregon has already released 1,250 adult birds and thus cleaned out their stock of pheas ants. This farm Is to be used en tirely for the production ot the newly-introduced chukar partridge and some work with quail in the immediate future. During the coming week, crews from the eastern part of Oregon will release an additional 800 adult birds from the Ontario game farm and as soon as the weather per mits, approximately 5,000 birds will be turned out on the west side of the Cascades from the game farm located on the E. E. Wilson game management area. The birds being released are adult birds held over from last year and will provide brook stock for natural production of pheas. ants this spring. . Following the March releases of adult birds, the liberation trucks will go Into action again In late May or June to transport young birds raised this spring at the various farms. Final pheasant re leases or the year will be made In October when adult roosters are liberated just prior to and during the hunting season. In addition to the pheasant re leases being made from the On tario and E. E. Wilson pheasant farms, the Hermiston farm will raise and set free approximately 10,000 chukar partridge as a con tinuation of the commission's pro gram to establish the birds In eastern Oregon. Total game bird production for the year is set at 40,000 birds in cluding 15,000 Chinese pheasants, 15,000 Mongolian pheasants, and 10,000 chukar partridge. This Is approximately the same as last year's total. WHERE TO. DINE... Willnrd Hotel ' Marvin Brown Mgr. Paul Bunyon Room Pendoros Room TOPS IN FOOD , TOPS IN ENTERTAINMENT REMODELING?
