More than 80,000 mule and white-tail deer will be in the field this fall. Some 2,943 deer and ante lope permits have been taken, Vance said. A breakdown of this figure reveals that 2,368 were tor firearm deer, 33 for archprv rtorr onH Rd9 fnr- ante, lope ' j rw ro r ppt of h ante- lope permits in the North Sioux area have been applied for, Vance said.

Sportsmen were asked to iden tify the tail feathers and the date the goose was taken. Ac cording to the Commission, only 3.2 per cent of the geese were incorrectly identified. "We learned something about your ability to identify geese," L. P. Vance, chief of game, said in a letter to the goose hunters. "We've known for some time that some of us have a little trouble with ducks, but this proj ect proved that most of us know our geese." More than half of the tall feathers were from Canada geese. The remaining feather. included 92 whitefronts, 8J snows, and 58 blues. The tail feathers gave the Commission a means of aging geese taken by Nebraska hunt ers. This information and that from other sources showed that 1961 was a very poor year for reproduction for all geese. None of the geese produced well enough to sustain a kill as high as that in the Central flying during the 1961 season. Conditions on the breeding grounds of Canada were re ported to be somewhat Improved this spring, but time is required to find what the reproduction will be and what to expect on the fall flight.
