Scarcity of Game and Import Tendency Noted by Biological Survey

Venison prairie chickens and quail are scarce, with a shift toward imported game at moderate prices. The survey also outlines plans to map natural life zones to guide crop choices and notes ongoing boll weevil concerns in Texas and bird protection efforts. A Chilean railroad bid from Aries to La Paz totaled 11.25 million dollars, with an American bid withdrawn.
