Will be plenty of range
for the elk which once were
the means for the stock.
Thinks that the game can be
made self supporting. Would
think that a certain part of the
license money showed in
expenditure for hay. In many
writers no hay will be needed.
Seen pass but one embryo, but
has not examined many.
Has seen calves seeking food
into the writer.
Improved land is worth about $25
an acre.
Thinks 95% of the claim can be
made into hay land.
Thinks hay would bring 7 or 8
dollars a ton to almost any market.
Thinks that could be more money
in hay @ $1 a ton than
in cattle. Moved prefer at himself.
Thinks the elk are coming in the
hunting season than before they were
fed.
Robert Neilson (Geniths or Jackson).
Is not sure whether hay showed
be bought or raised by the
State or God. Thinks he showed
the promise yearly... Too few
a year... I would favor more
than one feeding place. Had three
where they could congregate. Elk
have not molested him at all.
This winter, nor has there been
any trouble in the Genith settlement,
only trouble in Return Peterson and
southern end of South Park. Tried
from Federal Supervision and State
cooperation of the elk. State has
been deplored to remedy the
matter but has not acted soon
enough. Thinks plenty of hay
would be secured in haying
time. Hay has been $5 or $7 a
ton in haying time. Thinks that
it will be higher a price
later.
There is now 400 acres of
Jurine Land to each head of
domestic stock. Does not think
the stock business will be harmed.
