I remember the time a sleigh was rented for the day and some relatives from California were taken for a sleigh ride, the first they had ever enjoyed. We had to go down on the old road toward Spanish Fork from Payson that day to find enough snow to ride on. The snow plows had been out in full force as they were this morning. Suddenly a soft whirring noise which became increasingly louder interrupted my reverie. Into sight came the first of modern day snow travel along our snow packed roadway, the neighbors on a snowLater on a tractor pulling the mobile. youngsters on their sleds passed as did some energetic youngsters with their sleds. As they eagerly ran along and then dropped to their sleds for a short ride, other children began sliding along the street using their shoes as skates. Wouldnt it be fun to go back to the good-ol- d days for just a little while and ride again in one of those old sleighs? Of course we have all been spoiled by the modern conveniences, so a short reverie would do. It is possible for us to revisit those times though with our older cowboys. The present day ones have a lot to offer us and we can learn a lot from both of them. This is just what we intend to do during the weeks to come. Wont you join us as we hit the trail, so to speak, and get to know our horsemen and the heritage they keep alive for us? ember 22 at the Peteetneet school.

The same fact holds true for other upland game species with high reproductive rates. Contrary to the opinion of some persons, these species cannot be stockpiled to multiply indefinitely. If the surplus birds are not harvested by hunters, nature steps in and takes her toll.
