peo and 7,444,000 were catchables. Total weight was 1,852,336 pounds, some 265,200 pounds under the previous year’s production. The bill for this production tame to $1,460,065, or $68,492 less than the operating costs in 195758. The savings were made possible because of a smaller poundage production and because of the increased use of dry food in hatcheries. Total cost of catchable-size trout rearing and planting was $1,141,966. Shannon pointed out this is in line with previous Fish and Game Commission policy to hold production to the 1956 cost level, which was $1,248,092. A new policy, established ‘by the commission last month, gears eatchable-size trout production to income from license. stamps. This will supersede the 1956 poli ae of the fingerlingincrease was due to large spawning runs of salmon and steelhead. There Turkish Chukars To Be Released The last of 2,000 Turkish chuKars to be planted in California «experimentally this year were released in Siskiyou County yesterday (March 9). : The California Department of Fish and Game, which is releasing these birds under authority of the California Fish and Game Commission, hopes they will establish themselves iri areas now deficient in game birds. The Turkish chukar, a close relative. to the. Indian chukar, which was first released. in Cali‘fornia in 1932, favors steep; rough terrain, with low, scattered shrub cover. It is believed. to favor areas of higher -rainfall. and © denser stands. of brash and’ woodland than its ~presently ‘established cousin, the Indian chukar. Both birds are in. the same family.as the Barbary partridge, which was introduced experimentally © into the Sierra foothills of eastern San Joaquin VaHey in.1958, 1959, and 1960. ; The introduction of Turkish chukars is the second plant of 1,000 birds and is being made in the same areas where survivors of the first plant (in early January) have been located. Plants were scheduled to be made at the following locations: Orradre Ranch, San Ardo, Monterey County, 200 birds March 1, Kennedy Table, Madera County, 200 birds March 2. Little Rock Canyon, Los :Angeles County, 200 on Mareh 3. San Mateo Canyon, Camp*Pendieton, San Diego County, 200 on March 3. Clement Bros. Ranch, Montague, Siskiyou County, 400 on March 9. Once established, the ._ progeny of these plants will serve as a nucleus of wild stock from which the department plans to trap and transplant to other suitable areas. All of the present birds were reared at the Yountville Game Farm from stock obtained from New Mexico in exchange for REMEMBE! SF agilece compared with 15.9 cents. The average cost per pound for all. sizes and kinds of trout and salmon was 85 cents. This is 8 cents more than the record low 9 £77 cents in 1957-58, but the same as the previous record of 35 cents per pound set in 1956-57.

The department announced that food fawn survival and a satisfactory carryover of bucks has been revealed by the annual winter deer her composition counts. Herd composition counts show ratios of bucks and fawns to does, but are not total counts of the number of deer on the ranges. When combined with other data. these ratios, and later ratio counts in the spring, will provide basic . information for ‘management of California’s deer herds. More than 18,000 deer were classified in the recently completed composition. counts. Buck ratios.were highest in the north coastal area, with 34 bucks to 100 doé@s in 11 herds checked. As usual, buck ratios were lowest eaSt of the Sierra and Cascade ranges, averaging 13° per 100 does in 18 herds checked. Deer on the east side of the mountains are more vulnerable to hunting be-’ cause of better hunter access, more open terrain and lack of cover. Although the number of bucks shot on these east side ranges is consistently higher than elsewhere in the state fawn production is as good or better. This indicates that hunting is not damaging the breeding potentia the department said. Fawn-to-doe ratios in the north coastal and the east side ranges averaged the same this year:with each area showing 59 fawns to every 100 does, The winter weather has been mild so far and the deer herds are in good condition remaining scattered and thus taking some pressure off the winter ranges. “Galapago” is the Spanish name for tortoise, the giant land animals which. gain d first attention on the Galapagos.
