The game commission is confining its efforts not only to securing lands in a few particular sections of the Commonwealth, but near every center of dense population throughout the state, in an effort to bring the game to the people. Such sanctuaries will continue to insure adequate hunting in these heavily populated areas. The board also is interested in ad- ding new areas of remote forest lands to tracts which they already own, and often such purchases not only add ex- cellent game territory, but help in many cases to straighten out hereto- fore very uneven boundary lines. In many cases lands offered must be rejected either because the Common- wealth holdings in that section are sufficient or the purchase price is too high. Occasionally offers are received for lands adjoinin gpresent state for- est lands and such offers are turned over to the state department of Forests and Waters.

A refuge keeper is employed on each of these thirty-five primary refuges. A headquarters must be maintained for the refuge keepers. During the "ast few years it has been the policy of the board to make the homes at refuge keepers’ headquarters as comfortable as possible. Old houses are repaired where possible. New houses and necessary outbuildings are built at refuges where buildings are poorest. The new houses are substantially constructed and eq- uipped with bathroom and hot air heating system. FARM CALENDAR. Timely Reminders from the vania State College, Good Breeding Pays—How about the sire at the head of your herd? Is he from a line of breeding better than your present herd? If not, you better stop using him right now and plan to buy or get the use of a bull that will put your herd ahead. How about join- ing a bull association or uniting with your neighbors in getting one started?
