Reporter Near the middle of the year this organization was first organized With a membership which included the total enrollment of B. H. S. with only one or two exceptions. The first object Was to obtain the co-operation of the state in a program designed to restock this com- munity With game birds and animals. After some time was spent without securing state encouragement, the club decided to become a 4-H organization and do independent work with its own funds. From that time, constant activity resulted in the building of pens, buying bantams, buying and setting of quail and chukar eggs, all toward our goal of organizing a successful Wild life hatchery and game farm. Since the start has been hatching the eggs of the game birds, a great showing cannot be made until next year, when with our own stock, there will be a constant stream of birds to be released on the farm of this district.
