And sure enough, though limits on pesticides and wetland drainage have aided some bird species, the overall wildlife trend is down because of increaing habitat destruction, according to the National Wildlife Federation. The Federation's magazine "National Wildlife" reports that Each year in the U.S., over one million acres of habitat is either buried under buildings and pavements or drowned by reservoirs." Dr. John L. Schmidt. Colorado State University, writes in "Hunting and Fishing News" that "Out of a total of 3,187,825 acres of land despoiled by surface mining, 1,687,288 acres were wildlife areas now destroyed; and 17,197,531 acres of wetlands have been destroyed in seven states The Olpin Mortuary was first established in Pleasant Grove, Utah by Edwin D. Olpin. In 1928, Joseph Olpin, son of the founder, moved to Heber City from Pleasant Grove and opened the second Olpin Mortuary. Joseph Olpin, along with his son Guy, purchased the George Archer Mortuary in Park City in 1952. In 1954, Mr. Guy Olpin married Miss Shirley Hewitson of Park City. Together, they have since been of service to people of this area in their time of need. alone."

The best possibility for an increase in deer numbers lies with habitat, according to Homer game management chief. Habitat is noted as the single most important element in determining the future of Utah's herds. However, it costs money to purchase, manage and rehabilitate lands. As any consumer knows, all costs are rising; and the Division, too. feels the bite of inflation. Division Director John E. Phelps says. "The best solution to aid the Division's objective to manage the habitat to the ultimate benefit of Utah's deer is an increase in funds through a !i change."
