By Bion H. Butler The matter of building up in the Sandhills a game project that will cover many thousands of acres of ground, in one or several large res ervations unde the State law and un der the jurisdiction of the game war dens and the game laws of the state, is attracting considerable attention and discussion. The recent legislature made provisions for reservations on the part of property owners, in which several owners of smaller tracts may unite together to provide not less than 3,000 acres in one project, which can then be placed under the legal reg- ulations, permitting stocking with be birds and other wi creatures, an l>ay a xevenue to add material- extending to hunters at a ixe e- farm income.

It is believed that when the far mers understand the benefits to come from making of the Sandhills a hunt ing territory they will fall in with the Jim Swett and Uncle Sam Check on Survey Paper With rharacter, Aberdeen, North Carolina Point on S.

Yet deer are killed oc casionally in the county, and will be.

In his surveys of Weymouth Heights James Swett has carried his detail ed work to the old Shaw house below the peach orchard on the Connecti cut avenue extension. There near the house is a government bench mark, giving exact latitude and longitude, which Mr. Swett has tied in on his maps with the government bench marks at the Southern Pines station and at the curves on the railroad north and south of the town. This gives him the exact position on his maps of Southern Pines at all points. He has also determined by the govern- _ ment marks the true north and south cation in Honolulu.

The owner, in return for hunting fees, will be expected to provide care for the wild creatures that they may thrive and that the hunter may have some prospect of success in his hunt. The law limits the size of the bag that may bet taken, the number of birds taken in a given period, and such other matters as may be necessary. The aim is to greatly increase the wild life in the woods, all over the county and neighborhood, for the profit of all concerned, and to add in terest to the Sandhills in the sight of winter visitors and of native resi* dents. Can Add to Income Alex Fields is the game warden for the county. He is taking an active in terest in extending the game covers of the Sandhills, and will be glad to advise or help farmers who want to get together to create game preserves of their land that they may rent or sell hunting privileges.
