(Jackson) W.P. Redmond thinks that many people have said hay who stood there kept it for their own stock, and that the proportion to domestic stock cut fourteen and keep hay grills is unreasonable Does not think a winter range on the hills is desirable. Favors getting the strange and fencing at elk proof as then coring them into each county. It put up hay on the ground, and leave the strange grow as it is This had a good deal of trouble to keep the elk away from the stock when feeding. About 50 head have been about lately, including 16 calves. Many more come drawn array to the feeding grounds. Does not think any can be drawn out by any means Elk came to hay stretch on November when there was plenty of grass on the hills. Is not in favor of temporary fencing here and there, and buying hay for the elk creates a false market for hay. Would advocate the strange from Crosford or Butcher up roughly 2000 acres. Thinks this would disrupt the elk that come in Thanks that there are between 25 and 30 thousand on the Snake River drainage. None declined the last two years any to the death of so many Calves. Compared with 10 years ago they are much decreased and this has occurred mainly in the last 3 years. Is in favor of the Game Preserve big kept up. Is opposed to Federal control of any winter reserve which may be set aside but thinks the State and Federal Book Could combine. Said the state had not settled the question and ought to let the Book do something in the matter (More are much increased day the last Few years Coyotes are also numerous. (He was 7 a few days since)
