POLK COUNTY BOBWHITES
appear to have had a very success
ful nesting season this year, ac
cording to our personal observa
tion and reports from readers and
other friends throughout the
county.
Despite last winter’s severe
weather and heavy hunting pres
sure there seems to have survived
an ample number of breeder-biirds
to produce a near-record crop of
youngsters. And all through the
county local outdoorsmen will tell
you:
“There are more birds this
* year than I’ve seen for a long
time.”
Nowj this increase may be due
wholly to the fact that bobwhite
is just now reaching, or* has
reached, the peak of an abundance
cycle that occurs every 7 to 10
years in the populations of gallin
aceous birds and other game. But
we are convinced that the plantings
of lespedeza border strips and other
quail foods, and an awakening of
the public to the value of our wild
life is a directly contributing and
large factor in the betterment of
hunting conditions in the county,
state and nation.
BETTERMENT OP HUNTING
and fishing is so wholly interde
pendent upon the proper use and
rehabilitation of our lands, forests
and waters that each is insepar
able from the other in any overall
protection of our county, state and
national economies. In the latter the
4-H Clubs of the nation are playing
a growing and vital role.
We can’t have good hunting and
fishing in abandoned, eroded fields
and polluted or dried-up streams
