College Station. That Texas farm era and ranchmen approve the game management demonstration plan offered by the Extension Service of Texas A and M. College is evident from the enrollment of 1,697,600 jaden in 30 counties, according to RE Callender, game management specialist. The plan, in operation less than a year, calls for demonstrations featuring deer, wild turkey, antelope, beaver, peable chicken, guail fish, and other forms of wildlife. Farmers and ranchers who enter the game management program organize into associations and set inside their land 34 game preserves demonstrations. In most cases the preserves will be open to hunted hunting. Hunters will pay nominal fee, part of which will go to the owner of the land, and an association to be saved to provide cover, feed, and protection for the game.
